Allura Red

Bring a bold and unmissable red to your industrial and technical projects with our Allura Red CI 16035 Non-FDA Industrial Color Powder. Known also by its E-number E-129 and CAS 25956-17-6, this high-performance synthetic azo dye is celebrated for its brilliant red coloration and exceptional solubility in water. Following your explicit instruction, this product is firmly categorized as “Non-FDA.” This means it is NOT manufactured, certified, or intended for use in any products regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, including food, drugs, or cosmetics. Our Allura Red Industrial Color Powder is precisely graded and packaged for industrial, technical, and artistic applications where the rigorous standards and certifications for human consumption or topical contact are not applicable.

Understanding Non-FDA Allura Red:

The Industrial Choice Allura Red (chemical formula C18H14N2Na2O8S2) is a robust and stable dye that provides a consistent, vivid red hue. As a “Water Soluble Color,” it disperses effortlessly in aqueous solutions, ensuring uniform and intense coloration for various industrial processes. This Non-FDA Industrial Grade offers a powerful yet cost-effective solution for achieving striking red effects in applications that fall outside the purview of food, drug, or cosmetic regulations. Its reliability, strong tinting power, and color stability under various processing conditions make it an invaluable asset for a wide spectrum of technical and manufacturing needs.

Powering Color: Industrial and Creative Applications The versatility of our Allura Red CI 16035 Non-FDA Industrial Color Powder makes it an excellent choice for numerous non-regulated applications:

• Textile & Fabric Dyeing: Imparting rich red shades to a variety of fibers and fabrics in industrial dyeing processes.
• Paper & Pulp Industry: Providing vibrant red coloration for paper products, including specialty papers, cardboard, and decorative materials.
• Ink Manufacturing: Utilized in the creation of intense red inks for printing, markers, and other graphic arts applications.
• Cleaning Product Formulations: Adding a distinctive red color to industrial cleaning agents, detergents, and household chemical products (with emphasis on non-cosmetic use).
• Educational & Artistic Pursuits: An ideal component for scientific demonstrations, art projects, crafting, and theatrical productions where a powerful, non-ingestible red dye is required.
• Laboratory & Research: Employed as a general chemical reagent, indicator, or staining agent in various non-biological laboratory procedures.

Safety First: Handling Industrial-Grade Dyes Responsibly As an industrial-grade chemical, strict adherence to safety protocols is absolutely essential when handling Allura Red CI 16035 Non-FDA Industrial Color Powder. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection (safety goggles or a face shield), and a dust mask or respirator, to prevent inhalation of airborne particles and direct skin/eye contact. Work in a well-ventilated environment to minimize exposure. It is imperative to prevent ingestion, direct skin contact, and eye contact at all times. Store this product in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials, moisture, and direct sunlight. Always consult the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive information on safe handling, storage, and emergency procedures. Proper waste disposal, in accordance with local regulations for chemical waste, is also a critical responsibility.

FAQs:

Q: Is this Allura Red CI 16035 product safe for use in food, drugs, or cosmetics? A: Absolutely not. This product is explicitly designated as “Non-FDA Industrial Color,” meaning it is NOT suitable or safe for use in any food, drug, or cosmetic applications, nor for human consumption or direct skin contact. Its formulation and grading are strictly for industrial, technical, or artistic purposes.

Q: What does “Non-FDA Industrial Color” signify for this Allura Red? A: “Non-FDA Industrial Color” indicates that this Allura Red powder is manufactured for industrial and technical applications, and it does not meet the stringent purity or regulatory requirements set by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for products intended for human consumption or topical use. It offers a powerful and cost-effective coloring solution for non-regulated environments.

Q: What are the primary applications for Allura Red Non-FDA Industrial Color Powder? A: This industrial-grade Allura Red is ideal for coloring textiles, paper, and plastics. It’s also widely used in the production of industrial inks and paints, for adding color to cleaning products, and in various artistic, crafting, and educational projects where a brilliant, water-soluble red dye is needed, and where human ingestion or direct skin contact is not involved.

Q: What safety precautions should be followed when handling this industrial color powder? A: When working with Allura Red Non-FDA Industrial Color Powder, it is crucial to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and a dust mask or respirator. Ensure adequate ventilation in your workspace. Avoid inhalation of dust, ingestion, and any contact with skin or eyes. Always consult the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive safety guidelines and emergency procedures.

Q: How does this “Non-FDA” Allura Red differ from FDA-approved Allura Red (FD&C Red No. 40)? A: While both are based on the same chemical substance (Allura Red), the “Non-FDA” industrial grade product is not manufactured or tested to the extremely high purity standards required for FDA approval as FD&C Red No. 40. FDA-approved versions are certified safe for specific uses in food, drugs, and cosmetics, whereas this industrial grade is not. This difference in grade means they are suitable for entirely different application categories, with distinct safety and regulatory considerations.
