Solvent-Soluble Near-Infrared (NIR) Dyes for Coatings and Inks

QCR Solutions supplies high-performance solvent-soluble NIR absorbing dyes for use in liquid-based systems such as coatings, inks, adhesives, and chemical formulations. These dyes are optimized for absorption in the near-infrared spectrum (700 nm–1600 nm) and are suitable for applications requiring strong infrared attenuation with excellent solubility and formulation compatibility.

Discuss Your Application

QCR Solutions’ solvent soluble Near Infrared Dyes and Laser Absorbing Dyes are available in a wide spectral range, and with varying solubility and stability profiles. They are suitable for integration into organic solvent systems such as alcohols, ketones, and aromatic solvents. Ideal for developers looking to incorporate infrared attenuation into clear or pigmented formulations across both commercial and industrial product lines.

Our Near Infrared (NIR) Dyes can be incorporated into coatings, inks, solutions and plastics. These NIR absorbing dyes can be used for Laser Protection Eyewear, Light Filters (narrow or broad band), Welding Protective Eyewear, Security Inks, Graphics and many more applications. Below is a representative list of our Near Infrared Absorbing Dyes (700nm – 1000nm+).
