R-Acid (3-Hydroxy-2-Naphthoic Acid)
R-Acid, also known as 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (BON acid), is a classic azo coupling component widely used in the production of fast, insoluble azo pigments and printing pastes for textiles and packaging. It couples with diazonium salts at the 1-position to yield high chroma red, orange, and maroon azo colors extensively used in offset and flexographic printing inks. Chemzip supplies R-Acid to pigment and ink manufacturers requiring consistent coupling performance.
