The Shepherd Color announces the launch of its new Copper Manganese Chromite Black 10G982. This new pigment has a jet color and a high coloring power.
The anticipated uses for Black 10G982 are thermal and high durability coatings, such as coils and extrusion, automotive, industrial, architectural, powder and other coatings.
It can also be used in glass enamels.
Additional features of this pigment include:
• Resistant to acids, bases, solvents and UV
• High temperature stability
• No deformation in polyolefin
• Not bleeding or migrating
This new pigment is an example of Shepherd Color's dedication to providing a wide range of products that meet the specific needs of customers in black pigments for the plastics and coatings industries.
This black pigment chemistry is known as the standard use in high-durability coating systems that meet the longest warranties and highest color retention requirements when used in construction products.
It is also an excellent black for high-temperature applications, such as automotive uses under the hood along with pipes, infrastructure, and structural steel.
The advantage of the Black 10G982 is that it has a mastone very dark for the intensity of the dye it reaches. Those dye colors are also incredibly stable.
When shear is applied to a liquid coating, it can cause other black pigments to change their dispersion state and dye color.
Black 10G982, due to its dispersion properties and particle size, resists this change and the color remains the same. Once in a cured system, the Black 10G982 is intrinsically resistant to UV damage and degradation by free radicals.
All in all, Black 10G982 has the inherent properties that make it an excellent complete black pigment for a wide range of applications.
