FAQ:
1. How to make Cobalt Aluminate Blue Pigment?
Cobalt Aluminate Blue Pigment is produced by heating cobalt(II) oxide with aluminium(III) oxide (alumina) at a temperature of 1200 ℃. This Cobalt Blue Pigment, known chemically as cobalt(II) oxide-aluminium oxide or cobalt(II) aluminate (CoAl2O4), is lighter and less vivid than Prussian blue, an iron-cyanide based pigment.
2. Do you have any Certification for Cobalt blue pigment?
Cobalt blue pigment has been tested by SGS, complies with EU ROHS, EN71-3, ASTM F963, and Japanese SONY standards
So you can find that Cobalt Blue Pigment is suitable for environmentally sensitive applications like food packaging, children's toys, and household tableware.
