DISPERSE ORANGE 3

Description

Disperse orange 3 is an azo dye which can induce contact dermatitis in workers in the textile industry. Patch tests are frequently positive (about 30%) in hairdressers with a hand dermatitis. It is probably an indicator of contact sensitization to PPD, but disperse orange 3 can also be found in so me semipermanent hair dyes.

Chemical properties

red to dark brown powder

The Uses of DISPERSE ORANGE 3

Disperse Orange 3 may be used as a test material for investigating its degradation by the white rot fungus?Pleurotus ostreatus and the products obtained upon degradation are determined using UV-visible spectrophotometric and high-performance liquid chromatographic techniques.

The Uses of DISPERSE ORANGE 3

Disperse orange 3 is used as a dye in acetate, nylon, silk, wool, and cotton; stocking dye.

Preparation

4-Nitrobenzenamine diazo, with aniline base armour sulfonic acid coupling, and sodium hydroxide solution to boil, then a sulfonic acid hydrolysis off base.

Definition

ChEBI: Azobenzene substituted at the phenyl 4-positions by an amino and a nitro group.

What are the applications of Application

Disperse Orange 3 is a dye with color index number of 11005

General Description

Disperse Orange 3 (DO3) is a monoazo dye, which contains 90% dye content plus dispersing agents and surfactants. It has two aromatic rings with an amino group on one of the rings and the other is substituted with a nitro group. It shows an absorption peak majoring at 415 nm.

Contact allergens

Disperse Orange 3 is an azo dye that can induce contact dermatitis in workers in the textile industry. It is positive in a great majority of PPD-positive people, because of hydrolysis in the skin into PPD. Disperse Orange 3 can also be found in some semipermanent hair dyes.

Properties and Applications
