Beet Red CAS#7659-95-2
Versatile Solubility: Beet red is easily soluble in water, milk, 50% ethanol, and propylene glycol solutions, making it highly adaptable for various formulations.
Water-Based Applications: It dissolves well in aqueous solutions, enhancing its use in liquid products such as beverages and cosmetics.
Slight Solubility in Organic Solvents: It exhibits limited solubility in some organic solvents, expanding its usability in diverse applications that do not require full dissolution in oils or alcohols.
Insolubility in Harmful Solvents: Its insolubility in harsh organic solvents like ether, acetone, and benzene ensures safer handling and usage across industries.
Beet red typically appears as a red-purple to dark purple liquid, block, powder, or paste. It dissolves easily in water, milk, 50% ethanol, and propylene glycol solutions. It is slightly soluble in anhydrous ethanol, propylene glycol, and acetic acid, but remains insoluble in organic solvents like ether, acetone, chloroform, benzene, glycerol, and oils.

Beet Red, a natural red pigment, is primarily used as a colorant and finds widespread application in food (such as canned goods, beverages, candies, and dairy products, providing a red to purplish-red hue), as well as in industry (pigments, coatings), chemical engineering (plastics, rubber), and textiles (natural dyes). It can be added to food during regular production and is considered safe for use.
