orange-red powder. Soluble in water yellow orange clear solution, insoluble in oil, almost insoluble in ethanol, in concentrated sulfuric acid red orange, diluted yellow. The aqueous solution of concentrated hydrochloric acid does not change color, when concentrated sodium hydroxide is brown red, with acid dye characteristics, can make the animal fiber direct dyeing.
after diazotization with p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, coupling with 2-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid under alkaline conditions, the resulting pigment may be precipitated with salt, filtered, and purified.
It is mainly used for the coloring of food and medicine, and can also be used for the production of aluminum salt lake pigments.

production method | after diazotization of p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, it is coupled with 2-naphthol -6-sulfonic acid under alkaline conditions, and the resulting pigment is precipitated, filtered and refined with salt. (1) preparation of sunset yellow. Add 11-12 p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, then slowly add sodium carbonate to completely dissolve it and filter; cool to 0-5 ℃, then add p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid 1.5-1.8 times the amount (mass) of hydrochloric acid, stir evenly and stand, precipitate fine 1-naphthylamine -4-sulfonic acid crystals, and cool to below 5 ℃. Slowly add 1:2 (mass) sodium nitrite solution at 3-5 ℃ for diazotization to obtain diazonium solution. After the reaction, the feed liquid is strongly acidic (blue) to Congo red test paper. Dissolve sodium 2-naphthol -6-sulfonate in 20 times the amount (mass) 75-80 ℃ water, then add some sodium carbonate (1/5 of the total amount), dissolve and filter. The filtrate is put into the reaction kettle, then the rest of sodium carbonate is added, stirred and cooled to 5-8 ℃; At 10-15 ℃ and PH8-9, diazo liquid is slowly added for coupling reaction for several hours. After the reaction is completed (2-naphthol -6,8-sodium disulfonate is slightly excessive), raise the temperature to 50-60 ℃, add refined sodium chloride, stir, cool it naturally to room temperature, and let it stand to precipitate crystallization; Dissolve the crystallization in 15 times the amount (mass) of clean water at 70 ℃, add an appropriate amount of sodium carbonate to make the solution slightly alkaline, and add refined salt after filtering, stir and adjust PH to 6.5-7.0 with hydrochloric acid. The finished product is obtained by standing, crystallizing, separating and drying. (2) Preparation of sunset yellow aluminum lake. Aluminum hydroxide is prepared from aluminum salt such as aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate and alkali such as sodium carbonate, and then added to sunset yellow aqueous solution to precipitate the product. Preparation of Sunset Yellow Add p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid to 11-12 times the amount (mass) of water at 60-65 ℃, then slowly add human sodium carbonate to completely dissolve it, filter and cool to 0-5 ℃, then add p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid 1.5-1.8 times the amount (mass) of hydrochloric acid, stir and stand evenly, precipitate fine 1-naphthylamine -4-sulfonic acid and cool to below 5 ℃. Slowly add 1:2 (mass) sodium nitrite solution at 3~5 ℃ for diazotization to obtain diazonium solution. After the reaction, the feed liquid is strongly acidic (blue) to Congo red test paper. Dissolve sodium 2-naphthol -6-sulfonate in 20 times the amount (mass) 75~80 ℃ water, then add some sodium carbonate (1/5 of the total amount), dissolve and filter.

After filtration, the refined salt is added, stir and adjust the Ph value to 6.5~7.0 with hydrochloric acid, stand for crystallization, separate and dry to obtain the finished product. Preparation of Sunset Yellow Aluminum Lake The aluminum hydroxide is prepared from aluminum salts such as aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate, etc. and bases such as sodium carbonate, and then sunset yellow aqueous solution is added to precipitate the product.
