Overview
Bright Dyes act as a coloring label on each drop of water. As that water or liquid travels, it can be identified at each point on its travel until it reaches extreme dilution. It may be detected visually, by ultraviolet light and by appropriate fluorometric equipment. The dyes selectively absorb light in the visible range of the spectrum. They are fluorescent because, upon absorbing light, they instantly emit light at a longer wavelength than the light absorbed. This emitted (fluorescent) light goes out in all directions. Most common fluorescent tracers are compounds that absorb green light and emit red fluorescent light.

Absorption Resistant
FWT red dye is resistant to absorption on most suspended matter in fresh and salt water. Compared to Bright Dyes FLT Yellow/Green products, FWT Red is significantly more resistant to degradation by sunlight and, when used in fluorometry, stands out much more clearly against background fluorescence.
