Indigo Blue is a dye that finds a wide range of applications across various industrial sectors. It is widely used as a dye in the production of denim fabric for jeans due to its ability to create a range of shades from deep navy to sky blue. It is also used to dye various other textiles, including casual clothing and home textiles like curtains. It is also utilized as a natural food coloring agent in the preparation of a variety of food items. It also finds its application as a medical indicator for various diagnostic purposes, such as visualizing ureteral orifices during cystoscopy and ureteral catheterization procedures. It is often used in the production of inks for traditional and digital printing. Additionally, the compound also finds its application in the manufacturing of hair dyes.
The market for Indigo Blue is mainly led by its demand as a coloring agent for dyeing fabrics and manufacturing pigments and inks. Its utilization as a dye in the manufacturing of denim and other textiles, such as workwear and upholstery, largely contributes to its demand in the textile and fashion industries. Its application as a natural food dye in making various food products further enhances its demand in the food industry.
Its involvement in the production of inks and pigments for coloring applications also boosts its demand in the printing industry. Its usage as a medical indicator in certain diagnostic procedures and the treatment of inflammatory conditions also contributes to its demand in the medical diagnostics and pharmaceutical industries.
Indigo blue is produced synthetically on a large scale by using aniline, the raw material, which is a petrochemical product. Industrial Indigo Blue procurement is significantly affected by variations in the availability and price of aniline, which depends on crude oil prices and the petroleum refining industry. Fluctuations in the global oil market directly impact the cost and availability of aniline, which further affects the production and procurement strategies of indigo blue. Trends in fashion can further influence demand and prices.
Raw Material for Indigo Blue Production
According to the Indigo Blue manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Indigo Blue production includes Aniline-Formaldehyde-Hydrocyanic Acid.
Manufacturing Process of Indigo Blue
The extensive Indigo Blue production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:
- Production from Aniline: This method of production involves the synthesis of Indigo Blue by using aniline, formaldehyde, and hydrocyanic acid as the main raw materials. The synthesis begins with the condensation reaction of aniline, formaldehyde, and hydrocyanic acid, which produces N-phenylglycinonitrile. Further, the obtained N-phenylglycinonitrile undergoes alkaline hydrolysis to form N- N-phenylglycine, followed by treatment with alkali to obtain indoxyl. Then, the obtained indoxyl is subjected to aerial oxidation, which results in the formation of indigotin or indigo blue as the final product.
Indigo Blue is a deep blue crystalline powder with the molecular formula C16H10N2O2. The molecular weight of the compound is 262.26 g/mol and has unique physical and chemical properties. This organic compound has a density ranging from 1.01 to 1.199 g/cm³ at 20 degree Celsius. The compound has a high melting point of 390-392 degree Celsius, and its boiling point is approximately 405.51 degree Celsius.
Indigo Blue is characterized by its low solubility in water and most organic solvents, but it dissolves in chloroform, nitrobenzene, and concentrated sulfuric acid. Its planar molecular structure consists of two indole rings connected by a double bond with a maximum absorption at 613 nm. Indigo Blue sublimates at its melting point and can be converted to indigo carmine through sulfonation. Its low solubility and its ability to be made more soluble using transient protecting groups like tBOC, make it a versatile compound in various industries, including textiles, food coloring, and cosmetics.
