Acid Red 9

Description:
Acid Red 9, also known as Allura Red AC, is a synthetic azo dye commonly used in food, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals for its vibrant red color. It is characterized by its solubility in water, which allows it to be easily incorporated into various aqueous formulations. The dye exhibits good stability under normal conditions, although it can be sensitive to light and heat, potentially leading to degradation over time. Acid Red 9 has a molecular structure that includes azo (-N=N-) functional groups, which are responsible for its color properties. It is important to note that while Acid Red 9 is approved for use in many countries, it is subject to regulatory scrutiny due to potential health concerns associated with azo dyes, including allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. The dye's application is widespread, but its use is regulated to ensure safety in consumer products. Overall, Acid Red 9 is valued for its intense color and versatility, but caution is advised regarding its potential health implications.
