What is PONCEAU SX?

The Uses of PONCEAU SX

Dye in externally applied drugs, cosmetics; food colorant in maraschino cherries.

Preparation

2,4-Dimethyl-5-aminobenzenesulfonic acid diazo, coupled with the 4-Hydroxynaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid.

General Description

Red crystals. Aqueous solution is yellowish-red.

Air & Water Reactions

Azo dyes can be explosive when suspended in air at specific concentrations. Water soluble.

Reactivity Profile

PONCEAU SX is an azo compound. Azo, diazo, azido compounds can detonate. This applies in particular to organic azides that have been sensitized by the addition of metal salts or strong acids. Toxic gases are formed by mixing materials of this class with acids, aldehydes, amides, carbamates, cyanides, inorganic fluorides, halogenated organics, isocyanates, ketones, metals, nitrides, peroxides, phenols, epoxides, acyl halides, and strong oxidizing or reducing agents. Flammable gases are formed by mixing materials in this group with alkali metals. Explosive combination can occur with strong oxidizing agents, metal salts, peroxides, and sulfides.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data for PONCEAU SX are not available; however, PONCEAU SX is probably combustible.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
