Description
Malachite Green (CAS 569-64-2) is a synthetic triarylmethane dye supplied as green crystalline solid, also known commercially as Aizen M, Green Mx, Fast Green, LC 6220, and S NO 754. It carries no E-code designation and is classified under HS code 29215900.
In textile and leather processing, Malachite Green dyes cellulosic and protein-based fibres through ionic bonding with negatively charged substrate sites, delivering strong green coloration. In printing and packaging applications it functions as a colorant for inks and coated papers. It also serves as a catalyst in specific oxidative and photocatalytic reaction systems.
Malachite Green is available in technical grade for industrial dyeing and catalytic applications. It is subject to REACH registration requirements within the EU, and buyers should note restrictions on its use in certain regulated sectors. Standard packaging formats include fibre drums and multi-layer bags; documentation including SDS and CoA is supplied on request.
