Direct Black 103, also known as C.I. Direct Black 103, is a synthetic azo dye primarily used in the textile industry for dyeing cotton, wool, silk, and nylon. It is characterized by its high color strength, good light fastness, and excellent wet fastness properties. The chemical structure of Direct Black 103 consists of a diazo component (2-naphthol-6,8-disulfonic acid) and a coupling component (3-hydroxy-4-((4-nitrophenyl)azo)naphthalene-2,7-disulfonic acid). Due to its potential environmental and health concerns, its use is regulated in some regions, and alternative eco-friendly dyes are being developed.
The CAS Registry Mumber 3071-71-4 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 3,0,7 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 7 and 1 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 3071-71: (6*3)+(5*0)+(4*7)+(3*1)+(2*7)+(1*1)=64 64 % 10 = 4 So 3071-71-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
