Hansa Pigments® Product Range:

Hansa Yellow 10G is a pigment with good fastness to light and weathering for air-drying paints. Because of its pure greenish shade it is particularly suitable for green mixtures. Owing to the high risk of blooming, it is not suitable for stoving enamels.

Hansa Yellow 10G 41 gran. is a very green shade and opaque monoazo pigment in granule form. In comparison to the powder type, the granule form is stronger with improved recrystallization stability. It exhibits good light- and weather fastness properties. Recommended for paste inks as well as for solvent- and water based packaging gravure and flexographic printing inks.

Yellow pigment for air-drying paints with considerably higher tinctorial strength and a slightly greener shade than Hansa Yellow G grades which it can often replace to advantage. Because of the high risk of blooming it is not suitable for stoving enamels.

Hansa Brilliant Yellow 4GX is a green shade monoazo pigment. The shade is similar to Pigment Yellow 1 but with higher transparency and good light- and weather fastness properties. Recommended for paste inks as well as for solvent- and water based packaging gravure and flexographic printing inks.

Hansa Yellow G 02 is a strong, opaque monoazo pigment. It exhibits good light- and weather fastness properties, is easy to disperse and has good stability to recrystallization. Recommended for paste inks as well as for solvent- and water based packaging gravure and flexographic printing inks.

Hansa Brilliant Yellow 2GX 70 is a yellow pigment with good fastness to light and weathering for air-drying paints. Very good hiding power as an organic pigment. As it has good rheological properties, it can be used even at high pigment concentrations (about 20 % relative to solid binder) without any effect on gloss. Eminently suitable for the production of intense opaque yellow shades for lead-free or low-lead paints. Not suitable for stoving enamels because of the high risk of blooming

Yellow pigment with good fastness to light and weathering for air-drying paints. Very good hiding power as an organic pigment. As it has good rheological properties, it can be used even at high pigment concentrations (about 20 % relative to solid binder) without any effect on gloss. Eminently suitable for the production of intense opaque yellow shades for lead-free or low-lead paints. This pigment has been stabilized to recrystallization thus the production of pigment concentrates is much more reliable and their shelf-life is better. Pigment is not suitable for stoving enamels because of the high risk of blooming.

Hansa Brilliant Yellow 2GX 72-S is a modified version with a highly efficient and widely compatible additive. Optimum tinting strength can be achieved in relatively short time using a dissolver and suitable dispersing agents. The simplified dispersion process that does not include a bead mill results in a cost efficient manufacturing of pigment dispersions. Furthermore dispersions made with Hansa Brilliant Yellow 2GX 72-S can be used to tint the new generation of low VOC decorative paints.** As defined in EU directive 2004/42/EC, annex II, phase II. VOC standards and regulations vary by location. Product specific VOC information is available to customers upon request. It is the responsibility of the coatings manufacturer to determine standard compliance and appropriate claim for their products.

Hansa Red GG is an opaque, yellow shade beta-Naphthol pigment. It is easy to disperse and exhibits good light- and weather fastness properties. Recommended for paste inks as well as for solvent- and water based packaging gravure and flexographic printing inks.

Hansa Scarlet RNC is a Toluidine red pigment with the properties typical of this group such as relatively good fastness to light and weathering in full shades, severely reduced fastness to light and weathering in reductions with white pigments and a high risk of blooming in stoving enamels. Main field of application: air-drying paints and force-dried paints (80 °C paints) in full shades at the highest possible pigment concentrations.

Hansa Red 3B is a very blue shade opaque beta-Naphthol pigment. It is easy to disperse and exhibits good light- and weather fastness properties. Recommended for paste inks as well as for solvent- and water based packaging gravure and flexographic printing inks.
