Key Performance Properties Related to Applications

Color Shade:
Produces a bright reddish-orange tone with clean and vivid color appearance.

Tinting Strength:
Provides strong tinting strength suitable for coatings and plastic formulations.

Lightfastness:
Offers very good lightfastness, making it suitable for applications exposed to light.

Heat Resistance:
Suitable for plastic processing temperatures typically up to 280–300 °C, depending on the polymer system.

Weather Resistance:
Demonstrates stable performance in outdoor exposure environments.

Chemical Resistance:
Resistant to many acids, alkalis, and common industrial solvents.

Advantages

  1. Excellent Light and Weather Fastness – Offers outstanding resistance to light, heat, and outdoor weathering, making it ideal for automotive OEM coatings and exterior applications.

  2. Stable Gloss and Rheology – Maintains gloss and smooth flow even at high pigment concentrations, ensuring uniform surface appearance.

  3. Wide Compatibility – Can be easily combined with quinacridone and inorganic chrome pigments, providing versatile color matching options.

  4. Superior Solvent and Heat Resistance – Demonstrates excellent durability in metallic inks, PVC (7–8 grade lightfastness), and HDPE without deformation.

  5. Versatile Application Range – Suitable for automotive coatings, decorative inks, plastics, and unsaturated polyester coloring, offering long-term color stability and cost efficiency.

Typical Limitations

Cost Considerations:
As a high-performance pigment, Pigment Orange 36 may be more expensive than conventional azo pigments.
