What is Solvent Red 24?

Solvent Red 24 is an oil-soluble solvent dye widely used for coloring fuels, lubricants, plastics, waxes, and other hydrocarbon-based materials. Unlike pigments, solvent dyes dissolve directly in compatible organic media, producing bright and transparent red coloration.

This dye is valued for its strong tinting strength, good solubility, and stable shade performance in industrial formulations. It is commonly used for color identification in fuels and lubricants, as well as for transparent coloration in plastics and resins.

Typical Applications

Solvent Red 24 is commonly used in the following applications:

  • Fuel coloring

  • Lubricants and industrial oils

  • Waxes and hydrocarbon systems

  • Plastics and synthetic resins

  • Industrial inks

  • Specialty coatings

In fuel and lubricant systems, the dye provides clear color identification, while in plastics it enables transparent red coloration without significantly affecting material clarity.

Key Performance Properties

1 Excellent Solubility in Hydrocarbon Systems

The dye dissolves well in oils, fuels, and organic solvents, ensuring uniform coloration without particle dispersion.

2 Strong Tinting Strength

Solvent Red 24 provides high color intensity even at relatively low dosage levels, helping optimize formulation efficiency.

3 Transparent Coloration

Because the dye dissolves directly in the medium, it produces bright and transparent red shades suitable for clear or translucent materials.

4 Stable Processing Performance

The dye maintains stable color performance during typical industrial processing conditions used for oils and thermoplastic materials.

Advantage

1 Suitable for Fuel and Oil Identification

The dye is commonly used to provide visible color identification in fuel and lubricant systems.

2 Transparent Color Development

It produces bright red coloration while maintaining clarity in compatible materials.

3 Easy Processing

Because it dissolves directly into compatible systems, dispersion processes required for pigments are not necessary.

Synonyms

Solvent Red 24 Sudan IV / Sudan Red 4 / Sudan 4 Oil Red 4B / Oil Red IV α-Tolylazo-o-tolylazo-β-naphthol
1-(2-methyl-4-(2-methylphenylazo)phenylazo)-2-naphthol

Typical Limitations

1 Moderate Lightfastness

Compared with high-performance pigment systems, solvent dyes generally provide lower resistance to long-term outdoor exposure.

2 Possible Migration in Certain Plastics

Migration resistance may vary depending on the compatibility between the dye and the polymer system.

3 Limited Hiding Power

As a dye, it does not provide opacity and is not suitable for applications requiring strong covering power.

Buyer Guidance

When selecting solvent dyes for industrial applications, buyers should confirm:

  • Target application (fuel, lubricants, plastics, etc.)

  • Solubility requirements

  • Processing temperature

  • Desired shade intensity

  • Regulatory compliance requirements

Providing clear application information helps suppliers recommend suitable grades and usage conditions.
