Used as a solvent dye in industrial applications, particularly for coloring hydrocarbon-based solvents, lubricating oils, and waxes. Commonly applied in the formulation of inks, coatings, and polishes where a strong blue color is required. Also utilized in the textile industry for mass coloration of synthetic fibers and in the production of specialty paints. Its solubility in organic solvents makes it suitable for use in non-aqueous systems where water-based dyes are ineffective.
