United States. Sun Chemical has launched two new mixing pigment preparations for the coatings market: eXpand! Yellow ST 1018 and eXpand! Black ST 9005.
According to the company, eXpand! Yellow ST 1018 combines intense chroma with reduced dispersion and high transparency, enabling the formulation of a new generation of automotive coating styles. For its part, according to the same company, the Black ST 9005 mixing solution offers exceptional brightness and a unique black tone due to the reduced dispersion.
"Automotive coating formulators are constantly looking for exciting new colors for their vehicles and we are thrilled to offer two new options," said Javier Morcillo-Ruiz, technical director and senior expert in automotive coating pigments and color materials at Sun Chemical.
"The reduced dispersion of eXpand! Black ST 9005 and the top chroma of eXpand! Yellow ST 1018 opens up new colour spaces for car styling," he added.
According to this, this solution is fully compatible with modern water-based coating systems for automobiles. Pigment preparations to add offer unprecedented color depth and allow to improve brightness, fluidity and brightness.
According to the company, these advanced pigments combine high transparency with high coloring power to obtain more intense unique shades with less dispersion.
The agitation capability combined with a small particle size and narrow distribution make this pigment preparation easily dispersible, reducing the time involved in the production process compared to conventional grinding methods.
He also points out that thanks to the reduced dispersion formulation, new effect characteristics never seen before are also possible.
