A quinacridone magenta pigment, Hostaperm® Pink E2Y has high color strength and excellent light and weather fastness at a wide range of concentrations.
Chemists at Oregon State University have discovered that the same crystal structure they identified two years ago to create what may be the world’s best blue pigment can also be used with different elements to create other colors.
The use of mixture statistics with formulation development is valuable because it provides a clear, concise path to obtain an optimum formula within a practical number of trials.
A new inorganic black pigment has been developed combining jetness and a neutral colour shade in reductions with an extraordinary IR-reflecting ability bridging the gap between existing products.
This article presents three separate types of polymeric dispersants that enable the formulator to create dispersions that utilize the properties of pigments to their upper limit.
The results presented in this article show that the use of the next-generation Chroma-Chem® 897 waterborne no-VOC colorants can help paint formulators comply with current and developing VOC coating requirements.
