Vibrant Colored Aerosmoke
ESSENTIAL FOR EVERY AIRSHOW No airshow or aerial flying demonstration would be complete without bright trails of colored smoke trialing behind aircraft during flybys. Smoke is generated by spraying a highly atomized mist of paraffinic oil and dyes into the hot exhaust of a jet or piston engine aircraft. Effective generation of colored smoke is […]
Colorants for Engineered Lumber Products
LIQUID DYES FOR ENGINEERED WOOD RESINS Novaqua dyes are designed to color resins used in the manufacture of engineered wood products. Coloration of the resin imparts a permanent characteristic shade to the wood useful for identification and marking of the finished product. The liquid dye is metered into the resin feed line prior to mixing […]

Fuel Dyes
Novasolve dyes are highly concentrated fuel miscible liquid dyes used as a color additive in petroleum products such as gasoline, jet fuel, diesel fuel, kerosene and heating oil. Solubility - Highly miscible in oils and quick to disperse. Minimal mixing is required.Efficiency - Low effective dosing rates (in ppm)Permanence - Once added, visible color cannot be removed. Dye […]
Dyes for Lubricants and Grease
CONCENTRATED LIQUID COLORED OILS FOR INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS Coloring of lubricant oils and greases requires high performance dyes to match the exacting demands of the application. Dyes for lubricants must withstand high temperatures and in many cases last for the lifetime of the lubricant until the next change. Novalube dyes are selected to provide superior thermal […]
Fluid Identification
Systems or processes containing multiple fluids can often benefit from dye tracers added to permit quick visual identification. Dyes can also help in rapid identification of leaks and to avoid confusion in use of stock fluids. Nova offers products to suit a full range of fluids and applications. All dyes are non-reactive, heat and chemically […]
Oil Leak Detection
INTRODUCTION Nova makes it easy to detect leaks from oil systems using a UV flashlight and a fluorescent dye. Simply add the dye to the system and circulate then inspect with UV flashlight. Novaflour dyes will fluoresce a bright yellow or green color. The dye can remain in the system indefinitely and does not affect […]
Dye Penetrant Testing
This non-destructive testing technique, also known as liquid penetrant inspection (LPI), is a cost-effective method used to locate surface breaking flaws such as cracks, porosity, laps, seams and other surface discontinuities. Dye penetrant inspection can be applied to both ferrous and non-ferrous materials and all non-porous materials (metals, plastics or ceramics). Penetrant testing is commonly […]
