The textile industry's quest for vibrant, durable, and cost-effective coloration is ongoing. For dyeing and printing applications, key intermediates play a pivotal role in achieving desired shades and performance. One such crucial component is 3-Hydroxy-2'-methyl-2-naphthanilide, known by its CAS number 135-61-5. This compound is a staple in achieving excellent results in textile coloration, and as a leading chemical manufacturer and supplier in China, we are here to guide you on its applications and sourcing.

Understanding the Application of 135-61-5 in Textiles

3-Hydroxy-2'-methyl-2-naphthanilide is classified as an Azoic Coupling Component, specifically a type of naphthol. In textile dyeing, it acts as a 'primer' which is first applied to the fabric. When this primed fabric is then treated with a diazo component (like a diazo salt), a coupling reaction occurs, forming an insoluble azo dye directly within the textile fibers. This 'ingrain' dyeing method is highly regarded for its excellent wash fastness and resistance to bleeding.

Key Benefits for Textile Manufacturers:

  • Vibrant Color Shades: When coupled with appropriate diazo components, 135-61-5 can produce a range of beautiful colors, notably contributing to rich rose red and peach red hues on cotton and other cellulosic fibers.
  • Excellent Fastness Properties: Dyes produced using this intermediate typically exhibit superior wash fastness and light fastness, ensuring the longevity of the colors on finished garments and fabrics.
  • Versatility in Application: It is suitable for dyeing cotton yarns, cotton fabrics, viscose fibers, and even silk. Its application can extend to direct printing and discharge printing techniques, offering flexibility to textile processors.
  • Cost-Effective Procurement: By partnering with a reliable textile dyeing chemical supplier from China, you can benefit from competitive 3-hydroxy-2'-methyl-2-naphthanilide pricing. This allows for cost-efficient production without compromising on quality.
