3 Things you Need to know about our Phthalocyanine Blue Pigments
Phthalocyanine pigments are known for their stability among organic pigments and have excellent weatherfastness properties. There are two crystal modification types (a and b) and copper free types within our product range. We offer 16 different pigments that fall within these three classes, ranging from reddest (ie. PB.15:0 – 5150, 5561) to greenest (PB.79 – 5079). Each pigment type is produced and quality controlled for specific plastics, coatings, and ink applications.
