Description

Pigment Red 53:1 (CAS 5160-02-1, C₃₄H₂₄BaCl₂N₄O₈S₂, MW 888.94) is a monoazo lake pigment. It is the barium salt of the dye formed from CLT-acid (2-amino-4-methyl-5-chlorobenzenesulfonic acid) and β-naphthol. It is also known by its color index C.I. 15585:1 and common trade names such as Lake Red C, C, and D&C Red No. 9. It appears as a bright yellow-shade red powder with a melting point of 343-345°C and density of 1.66 g/cm³. It is slightly soluble in water and ethanol, but insoluble in acetone and benzene.
 
Pigment Red 53:1 was first commercially produced in 1903 and has since become a workhorse pigment in the industry. Its color is described as a “warm red” —it is distinctly more yellow than Pigment Red 57:1. The pigment exhibits strong color strength and excellent transparency in printing ink applications, particularly in gravure inks. It provides good heat stability, withstanding 180°C in general applications and up to 260°C for short durations in HDPE. It offers moderate lightfastness (rated 5-6) and good solvent resistance.
 

Key Applications:

 
Printing Inks:
Used extensively in offset, letterpress, and gravure inks. The non-resinated form is used in water- and solvent-based flexographic inks. The resinated grade provides a stronger, cleaner, yellower color for flexographic applications.
 
Plastics:
Suitable for HDPE, polystyrene, and other polymers. It offers good heat resistance and dispersibility for plastic masterbatches.
 
Rubber and Coatings:
Widely used in rubber products (tires, hoses, toys) and industrial coatings. Its heat stability makes it suitable for baking enamels and tin printing.
 
Cosmetics and Pharmaceuticals:
The D&C Red No. 9 grade is certified for use in lipsticks, mouthwashes, dentifrices, and drugs. It contains a minimum of 87% pure color for these applications.

FAQ

Yes, we have our own factory called ” ZhiShang Industry Group “

Pigment Red 53:1 is a yellower shade of red (“warm red”), while Pigment Red 57:1 is a bluer shade red (“cool red”). PR53:1 offers slightly better heat stability (180°C vs. 150°C) and is more commonly used in printing inks and rubber. PR57:1 is typically used in coatings and plastics where a deeper, bluish red is needed.
