CAS 16143-79-6: Direct Blue 76
Description:Direct Blue 76, with the CAS number 16143-79-6, is a synthetic dye belonging to the class of azo dyes, which are characterized by the presence of one or more azo groups (-N=N-). This dye is primarily used in the textile industry for dyeing cellulose fibers, such as cotton, due to its excellent colorfastness and vibrant blue hue. Direct Blue 76 exhibits good solubility in water, making it suitable for various dyeing processes. Its chemical structure typically includes sulfonic acid groups, which enhance its solubility and affinity for fibers. In addition to textiles, it may also find applications in other areas, such as paper and leather industries. However, like many azo dyes, Direct Blue 76 may raise environmental and health concerns, particularly regarding its potential to release aromatic amines upon degradation. Therefore, its use is subject to regulatory scrutiny in many regions. Proper handling and disposal practices are essential to mitigate any associated risks.
