Understanding Organic Pigment Yellow: Properties, Applications, and Benefits

Pigment Yellow, also known as organic pigment yellow, comes in powder form, finely ground for strong coloring abilities.

As one of Organic pigment systems, pigment yellow is a type of coloring agent derived from organic compounds. It is specifically designed to produce various shades of yellow, such as Reddish shade yellow(Red-shade pigment yellow, like PY14, PY55), Greenish shade yellow(Green-shade pigment yellow, like PY14, PY17 ) and other shades.

Properties of Organic Pigment Yellow:
Organic pigment yellow is characterized by its vibrant hue, excellent color strength, lightfastness (scoring 4 to 6 in resistance tests) and heat resistance(It can handle high temperatures between 160 to 200°C without losing its color.). It's created through chemical synthesis, resulting in pigments that offer exceptional stability, ensuring longevity in various environments. These pigments possess high tinting strength, meaning they can produce vivid yellow shades even in small quantities, making them cost-effective.

Color Index (C.I.) Number
Each pigment or dye receives a unique identifier, known as the Color Index (C.I.) Number. For Pigment Yellow, designations like P.Y.1, P.Y.3, P.Y.6, P.Y.12, P.Y.13, P.Y.14, ..., P.Y.194 are assigned.

These specific numbers play a crucial role in distinguishing subtle variations in shades, ensuring precision in color replication and communication across global industries.
