4,4'-Bis-(2-sulfostyryl)-biphenyl disodium salt (BSBDS)

Structure
Formula C28H20Na2O6S2
CAS No. 27344-41-8
EC No. 248-421-0
Synonyms Disodium 2,2'-[biphenyl-4,4'-diyldiethene-2,1-diyl] dibenzenesulfonate;

4 4-Bis-(2-sulfostyryl)-biphenyl disodium salt (BSBDS) also known as Tinopal CBS, is a fluorescent whitening agent widely used in the textile industry to enhance the brightness and whiteness of fabrics. It works by absorbing ultraviolet light and re-emitting it as visible blue light, making fabrics appear brighter and more vibrant. BSBDS is particularly effective on cellulosic and synthetic fabrics and is known for its lightfastness, chlorine stability, and high solubility. 

In the world of dyes, it acts as a critical component in high-performance direct dyes for cotton and wool, offering excellent color depth and wash fastness. Beyond textiles, BSBDS plays a vital role in optical brighteners for paper, enhancing their whiteness and brightness. It even finds use in photoresists for the electronics industry, contributing to precise patterning during chip manufacturing. UniVOOK’s 4 4-Bis-(2-sulfostyryl)-biphenyl disodium salt (BSBDS) proves its versatility across diverse sectors, ensuring vibrant colors, superior brightness, and intricate patterns in various end products.
