Sunrise Sudan Blue II Manufacturer & Factory

Global Standard Solvent Blue 35 Formulation & Chemical Engineering Excellence

Technical Overview: Sudan Blue II (Solvent Blue 35)

Sudan Blue II, widely classified within the Color Index system as Solvent Blue 35 (CAS No. 17354-14-2), is a premium synthetic anthraquinone dye recognized for its outstanding performance in extreme processing environments. Characterized by its deep, brilliant blue hues, the chemical possesses a molecular structure containing amine chains which render it highly soluble in non-polar organic media, including monomers, resins, polymers, and mineral oils.

Unlike lower-grade alternative colorants, our Sudan Blue II features a molecular composition designed to prevent migration and sublimation under high temperatures. This renders it an ideal solution for masterbatch production, plastic extrusion, and complex coating formulations where thermal stability up to 280°C - 300°C is required. As a leading manufacturer, we strictly manage impurity profiles to ensure that our solvent dyes comply with safety and performance parameters required for international regulatory standards.

Global Commercial & Industrial Landscape

In the current global industrial colorant market, Sudan Blue II (Solvent Blue 35) is rapidly experiencing an increase in demand. Driving this trend is the demand for specialized plastic products across automotive, industrial electronics, consumer packaging, and oil marker applications.

Thermoplastics and Engineering Polymers

Plastics such as Polystyrene (PS), Styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN), ABS, Polycarbonate (PC), and Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) require dyes that dissolve into the polymer matrix. Sudan Blue II provides transparency, vivid coloration, and high resistance to thermal degradation, meaning it preserves mechanical properties during molding.

Petroleum Marking and Tracing

Lubricant oils, diesel fuels, and industrial hydraulic fluids are color-coded with Sudan Blue II to identify grades, trace pipeline distributions, and mitigate fuel fraud. Its stability in complex hydrocarbons keeps the color intense over prolonged storage cycles.

Specialized Coating & Ink Formulations

From high-end marine coatings to gravure and flexographic packaging inks, Solvent Blue 35 acts as a reliable coloring agent. Its low solvent retention and compatibility with multiple resins make it a preferred raw material for chemical formulators.

China Manufacturing Efficiency & Supply Chain Advantages

In the specialty chemical sector, production efficiency is tied to raw material integration, process automation, and strict environmental compliance. Tianjin Sunrise Chem Group leverages its proximity to the port of Tianjin and established partnerships to offer chemical solutions on a global scale.

Our synthesis facilities employ advanced computerized control systems that regulate reaction parameters—such as condensation temperatures and filtration speeds. This reduces batch-to-batch variance, which is a key requirement for precision industries like masterbatch coloring. Furthermore, by adopting closed-loop VOC systems, we reduce emissions and ensure compliance with strict environmental regulations. This prevents supply interruptions caused by environmental audits, giving our international clients a reliable supply chain.

Supply Chain Advantages at a Glance:
  • Pre-Shipment Quality Testing: All batches are checked in our onsite laboratory.
  • Logistics Efficiency: Direct shipping routes from Tianjin Port reduce international lead times.
  • Stable Pricing: Integrated raw material sourcing protects buyers from market volatility.

Localized Application Scenarios

Industrial Resin Dyeing (Europe & North America)

In European and American markets, safety compliance regulations (REACH, TSCA) are strict. Our Sudan Blue II is designed to comply with these restrictions, making it suitable for colouring polymers intended for consumer appliances, tool housings, and packaging.

Hydrocarbon Tracing (Middle East & Asia-Pacific)

Large petrochemical and distribution networks in the Middle East and Asia use Solvent Blue 35 as an indicator dye. It mixes with diesel, gasoline, and lubricants, providing consistent marking that remains stable in high-temperature transport conditions.

Precision Inks and Coatings (Asia-Pacific)

With the growth of the packaging and printing sectors in Asia, manufacturers require dyes that are highly soluble in polar solvents. Sudan Blue II dissolves quickly in alcohol-ether systems, producing inks that dry quickly and resist water wash-offs.

Global Logistics, Projects & Operations

With years of experience, we have established strong partnerships in many countries. Our dedication to meeting global demands and exceeding customer expectations has earned us a reputation as a reliable supplier worldwide.

Environmental Responsibility & Industry Certifications

The ZDHC program is a collaborative effort by leading brands, retailers, and suppliers in the textile and footwear industry to reduce the use of hazardous chemicals. The focus of this certification is on eliminating the release of hazardous chemicals into the environment throughout the entire supply chain. Achieving ZDHC certification indicates that our company has implemented robust chemical management procedures and has met the stringent requirements for chemical handling, wastewater treatment, and pollution prevention.

The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) is a certification that ensures the organic status of textiles from the harvesting of raw materials to environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing. The GOTS certification guarantees that the textiles are made from organic fibers, that chemical inputs are minimized, and that strict environmental and labor standards are met throughout the production process. GOTS certified products are considered to be sustainable, safe, and ethical.

Both certifications are important in the context of sustainable and responsible textile production. ZDHC focuses on the elimination of hazardous chemicals, while GOTS certification guarantees the organic and ethical aspects of the textile production. By partnering with us, you choose a relationship built on reliability, transparency, and mutual success.

Technical FAQ & Knowledge Base

What are the primary thermal properties of Sudan Blue II / Solvent Blue 35?

Sudan Blue II is structured on a robust anthraquinone core, enabling high thermal stability. In engineering polymers like Polystyrene (PS) and PMMA, it resists decomposition and thermal migration at temperatures up to 280°C - 300°C. This makes it suitable for processes with short extrusion cycle times.

Does Solvent Blue 35 dissolve efficiently in non-polar organic solvents?

Yes. Due to its dialkylamino side groups, Solvent Blue 35 displays high solubility in non-polar media, hydrocarbons, aromatic solvents, and monomeric plastics. It dissolves completely without leaving particulate residues that could cause manufacturing defects in spinning or film extrusion.

How does ZDHC Level 3 certification benefit global buyers?

ZDHC Level 3 is the highest compliance tier. It certifies that the chemistry used in our manufacturing process complies with the ZDHC MRSL (Manufacturing Restricted Substances List). Choosing certified products protects your brand from regulatory issues and ensures your textiles and plastics meet modern environmental standards.
