Typical Applications
Pigment Yellow 93 is commonly used in several industrial sectors.
• Printing Inks: Flexographic, gravure, and other packaging printing inks.
• Industrial Coatings: Decorative coatings, general industrial paints, and maintenance coatings.
• Plastics: Coloring of polyolefins, PVC, and masterbatch formulations.
• Packaging Materials: Flexible packaging inks and decorative printing.
• Paper and Board: Colored paper coatings and printing applications.
These uses take advantage of the pigment’s compatibility with common industrial binder systems.
Key Performance Properties Related to Applications
• Color Shade:
Produces a bright yellow to slightly greenish-yellow tone with clean color appearance.
• Tinting Strength:
Provides moderate to good tinting strength suitable for coatings and printing ink formulations.
• Dispersibility:
Can be dispersed using conventional milling equipment in many ink and coating systems.
• Lightfastness:
Offers moderate lightfastness depending on the formulation and pigment concentration.
• Heat Resistance:
Suitable for typical coating curing conditions and standard plastic processing temperatures.
• Chemical Stability:
Shows stable performance in many common solvent and resin systems.
Advantages
-
Excellent light and weather fastness (Grade 7 at 1/3 & 1/25 SD)
-
High thermal stability (up to 290°C in HDPE)
-
Strong solvent and migration resistance
-
Suitable for plastics, coatings, and ink
• Typical Limitations
• Moderate Outdoor Durability:
Not primarily intended for long-term outdoor exposure without additional stabilization.
• Heat Resistance Limits:
May not be suitable for high-temperature engineering plastics.
• Lightfastness Variation:
Performance may vary depending on binder system, pigment concentration, and exposure conditions.
Buyer Guidance
When evaluating Pigment Yellow 93, buyers typically consider:
• Required shade tone (yellow vs. greenish yellow)
• Intended exposure conditions (indoor or outdoor use)
• Processing temperature of the plastic or coating system
• Required tinting strength and opacity
• Compatibility with printing ink or coating resin systems
• Regulatory and compliance considerations
