Pigment modifier for
aqueous and solvent applications
Chemical Composition
Amine Derivative
Chemo-physical Properties
Appearance: white to clear paste
Active ingredient: 100%
pH(1% aqueous solution): 3.0-4.0
Characteristics
Used to modify P.B.15:3 for offset ink. Such modified pigment has a more vibrant color with higher color strength and gloss.
Used to modify benzidine yellow pigments for offset and aqueous inks. Such modified pigment has a more vibrant color with higher color strength and gloss.
Application Scope
Mainly used to modify the yellow azo-pigments for use in offset inks. Used in smaller amount can also be beneficial for aqueous inks to increase color strength and opacity. E.g. PY.12, PY.13, PY.14.
Used in the non-base-boiling production process of P.B.15:3 during the ball-milling step for better use in offset inks.
Application tips
Dissolve 5050 in 10-20X hot water, add to the coupling solution before the coupling step.
Use 3-5% on a dry pigment basis.
For P.B.15:3, use xylene to dissolve. Use 3-5% on a dry pigment basis.
For making P.Y.12, add 3-4% 5050 into the coupling component solution. Such modified pigment is used in offset, aqueous inks for a more vibrant color with higher color strength and greenish hue.
Package
