Direct Blue 71, CAS 4399-55-7, is a water-soluble direct azo dye identified by Colour Index number 34140. It is used for blue coloration of suitable textile, paper, and leather substrates. Buyers can request shade specifications, colour strength, COA, TDS, MSDS or SDS, and bulk pricing.
Overview of Direct Blue 71
Direct Blue 71 is also known as C.I. Direct Blue 71 or C.I. 34140. It belongs to the trisazo dye class, meaning its molecular structure contains three azo linkages.
The dye’s tetrasodium salt has the molecular formula C40H23N7Na4O13S4 and a molecular weight of approximately 1029.87 g/mol. Commercial industrial grades are commonly supplied as blue powder for aqueous dyeing applications.
Commercial products may contain standardising salts or other formulation constituents. Dye content, relative colour strength, and chemical purity are different measurements. Buyers should compare the offered material against an approved shade standard and the relevant analytical methods.
Applications of Direct Blue 71
Cotton & Cellulosic Textile Dyeing
Direct Blue 71 is used to colour cotton and other suitable cellulosic materials, including viscose, linen, and jute. Dyeing units should evaluate shade, levelness, exhaustion, and fastness on the actual fabric before approving a grade.
Paper & Pulp Colouring
Paper manufacturers use suitable Direct Blue 71 grades for blue coloration of pulp and selected paper products. Buyers should assess colour strength, retention, bleeding, and compatibility with the furnish and process additives.
Leather Colouring
Direct Blue 71 has documented leather-colouring applications. Leather processors should confirm suitability for the specific tanning system and evaluate penetration, shade uniformity, rub fastness, and compatibility with finishing treatments.
Laboratory Protein & Membrane Staining
Appropriate laboratory grades have been used to stain proteins immobilised on membranes and tissue sections transferred to PVDF. Industrial dye specifications do not automatically establish suitability for analytical staining; laboratories should select a grade validated for their method.
Direct Blue 71 Shade & Performance Requirements
Finished colour depends on the substrate, dye concentration, water quality, process conditions, and any after-treatment. A powder’s appearance alone does not establish its shade on fabric, paper, or leather.
Request a colour-strength comparison against your approved reference. Confirm the test substrate and method used for washing, light, rubbing, or bleeding performance. Fastness ratings should be evaluated for the offered grade and intended application.
Specifications To Check Before Buying Direct Blue 71
Buyers should confirm CAS 4399-55-7, Colour Index number 34140, physical form, shade, relative colour strength, dye content where specified, moisture, water-insoluble matter, and dissolution behaviour.
Additional requirements may include solution pH with its test concentration, salt content, dust characteristics, and relevant restricted-substance limits. Specify any customer-required heavy-metal or aromatic-amine testing rather than assuming compliance from the product name.
Direct Blue 71 Price & Bulk Supply Support
Direct Blue 71 price depends on colour strength, shade specification, grade, source, quantity, packaging, freight, and delivery destination. Share your approved reference and monthly consumption for a quotation suited to repeat production.
