Storage According to the experience gained so far, the pigments and dyes
listed in this Technical Information bulletin have, if stored cool and
dry, a practically unlimited shelf life.
For certain plastics and applications it is often advantageous to use
fully dispersed, low-dusting pigments like Eupolen
mono-pigment
preparations instead of pure pigments. This applies in particular to
the coloration of very thin-walled products, when a very high degree
of dispersion or dust-free conditions is required or when the pigments
are to be metered automatically.

General
Aside from the field of application and the quality standard related
to it, cost is an important issue when choosing a colorant. These
criteria were taken into consideration when selecting the pigments
to be listed in this Technical Information bulletin. These products
meet medium to high standards of fastness to light, heat stability,
fastness to migration and dispersibility.
The letter K in a pigments name indicates that the product has
been developed for the coloration of plastics and that the release
inspection is carried out in plastics. Exceptions are:
Lumogen
F dyes photometric testing on a dye solution

Thermoplast dyes photometric testing on a dye solution

Tolerances are listed in the product specification sheets.
Colorants can also be combined with additives like UV stabilizers,
antistatic agents and antioxidants. For more information on BASFs
range of UV stabilizers, please refer to the Technical Information
bulletin and the pocket reference Uvinul
light stabilizers.
You can find illustrations of the colorants in our pocket shade card
Pigments for plastics (EVP 2405 DE).
Technical literature Aside from the Technical Information bulletins and shade cards
already mentioned, more are referred to within this document.
Please contact our sales force to receive your copy. Shade cards
and brochures can also be requested by e-mail from
service.evp@basf-ag.de. Most documents are also available in the
PDF file format on the Internet: www.basf.com/pigments.

Quality management
The production facilities for all products listed in this Technical In-
formation bulletin are certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001, and
so is the responsible operating division Performance Chemicals as
a whole.

Technical data
Fastness to light The fastness to light is determined on injection-molded plaques of
approximately 3 mm thickness. They are exposed to light accord-
ing to DIN EN ISO 105-B 01 and assessed on the wool blue scale
described in DIN EN ISO 105-B 01:

rating property
1 very poor
2 poor
3 moderate
4 fairly good
5 good
6 very good
7 excellent
8 outstanding

Fastness to weathering Determined according to DIN EN ISO 4892-2 and assessed on the
gray scale described in DIN EN 20105-A02.
Heat stability The heat stability is determined according to DIN EN 12877-1 on a
white reduction (organic pigments 1:10, inorganic pigments 1:4).
The temperature of a PE-HD melt in an injection-molding machine
is increased from 200 C (392 F) to 300 C (592 F) in steps of
20 C (68 F) with a 5-minute dwell time. The heat stability denotes
the highest temperature at which there is no noticeable change in
shade (i. e., total color difference E* is up to three units relative to
the specimen prepared at 200 C). Lumogen
F and Thermoplast
dyes are tested in different thermoplastics.
Fastness to migration The fastness to migration is determined on a calendered PVC film
in contact with a white-pigmented PVC film according to
DIN 53775, part 3, at the pigment concentration indicated in the
tables below. Other concentrations may result in different ratings.
Ease of dispersion The ease of dispersion is determined following DIN EN 13900-2 in
PVC-p, some pigments are tested in PE. The pigment is dispersed
on a roll mill at 160 C (320 F). A part of the sheeted-out com-
pound is allowed to cool to room temperature and then milled at
130 C (266 F) again. The ease of dispersion is calculated from the
increase of the relative color strength. The lower the value, the
easier the pigment is to disperse.
Bulk volume The bulk volume indicates the weight in grams of 1 cm of untamp-
ed material, determined according to DIN ISO 171.
Density The density is determined according to DIN EN ISO 787-10 on a
pyknometer.

limited suitability, preliminary tests required
not suitable
Their well-known good fastness properties make Heliogen
pig-
ments suitable for nearly all plastics and processing techniques.
Coloristically, both the highly transparent hues and the shades
achieved by combination with titanium dioxide or inorganic chro-
matic pigments are of great interest. In both cases, the fastnesses to
weathering and light are outstanding. Even reductions with a high
proportion or titanium dioxide still yield good fastness ratings.
Heliogen
pigments are stable to migration in all plastics, even in

plasticized systems, at very low pigment concentration.
Phthalocyanine green pigments may cause PE-HD to become brit-
tle when extensively weathered outdoors. Therefore, preliminary
suitability tests are necessary.
The outstanding resistance to chemicals and the excellent thermal
stability of Heliogen
pigments open up a wide range of applica-

tions in the blue and green ranges, allowing application even in
engineering plastics.
In terms of hue, purity of shade and color strength combined,
Heliogen
Blue K 6907 is technically superior to all known alpha-

modified phthalocyanine blue pigments.
Phthalocyanine pigments may cause warping in large injection-
molded PE-HD parts. An exception is Heliogen
Blue K 7104 LW
(LW = low warping) which practically shows no warping effect. For
more information on this product, please refer to the brochure
Heliogen
Blue K 7104 LW No warping, stable dimensions!.

Lithol
pigments have outstanding fastness levels considering the

price level. Typical fields of application are:
films, particularly from PE-LD and PVC
PVC cable sheathing and
blow moldings, toys and simple injection moldings made from
olefinic plastics

They are not suitable for processing at higher temperatures or for
the coloration of plastics for outdoor use when excellent fastness
to light and weathering are required.
In the applications mentioned, full-shade colorations yield good
fastness ratings. Fastness levels are not as high in reductions with
titanium dioxide. Particularly the fastness to light decreases as the
titanium dioxide proportion increases.

2

In principle, the fastness to migration of this pigment class is good.
However, depending on the system used (e. g., PVC blends), mi-
gration cannot be ruled out. In critical applications like food pack-
aging, preliminary trials should always be carried out.
Lithol
Scarlet K 4165 may adversely affect the heat resistance

when alkalis are present.

Paliogen
Red K 3580 and Paliogen
Red K 3911 HD are top-qual-

ity products suitable for nearly all applications. They generally meet
all demands in coloring engineering plastics.
Paliogen
Red K 3580 yields yellowish, transparent red shades with

outstanding fastness ratings and is, among others, of interest in PP
and PA spin-dyeing.
Paliogen
Red K 3911 HD is mostly used in near-full shades when

good brilliance, good hiding power and very good fastnesses to
light and weathering are required. Typical applications are bottle
crates, automotive parts and brilliant red shades in ABS.

Paliogen
Red K 4180 meets the highest demands of fastnesses to

weathering and light. It is has both very good color strength and
hiding power and can thus be used in combination with transpar-
ent and opaque pigments. In polyolefins, it is particularly stable to
heat even in low concentrations. Paliogen
Red K 4180 is widely

used in spin-dyeing of PP and PA.
Paliogen
Red Violet K 5011 is a perylene distinguishing itself by its

high color strength and high transparency. Fastness ratings are
very good even in low concentrations. This makes it an extremely
versatile pigment: it can be used in PVC for blending with inorganic
pigments as well as in vivid shades in injection and blow molding
as well as in PP and PA fibers both in full shade and as a shading
pigment.

Paliotol
pigments are organic pigments with outstanding fastness

ratings in a variety of plastics.
Paliotol
Yellow K 0961 HD must be tested for suitability and resis-

tance to both heat and chemicals when used in engineering
plastics.
Paliotol
Yellow K 1700 and Paliotol
Yellow K 2270 are very resis-

tant to heat and chemicals. They are mainly used for the coloration
of PP and engineering plastics like ABS.
Paliotol
Yellow K 1841, Paliotol
Yellow K 1841 FP and Paliotol

Yellow K 2142 H, based on isoindoline, are mainly used in all tech-
nologies of polyolefin (PE-LD, PE-HD, PP) coloration. They are also
well suitable for application in PVC-p and PVC-u.
Their chemical structure makes Paliotol
Yellow K 1841, Paliotol

Yellow K 2142 H sensitive to alkalis

(Ca and Zn stearates in PE-HD and PP). Good fastness to light and
a relatively good heat resistance make them suitable for, in par-
ticular, the coloration of polyolefin films, tapes and fibers.
Paliotol
Yellow K 1841 FP is offered with a certified filter pressure

value. The filter pressure value is guaranteed to be 1 bar/g. Thus
this grade is particularly suited for the spin-dyeing of PP fibers. For
more information, please refer to the brochure Color your fibers with
warranty! FP pigments with certified filter pressure value.
Paliotol
Yellow K 2142 H is an opaque and very reddish variant of

Pigment Yellow 139 (isoindoline) and extends the Paliotol
yellows
into orange. Compared with Paliotol
Yellow K 1841 or Paliotol

Yellow K 1841 FP, it has coarser particles and thus is more reddish
and weaker, but has superior fastness properties (fastness to light,
heat stability). Its hiding power and color strength are distinctly
better than that of isoindolinone pigments, making it a cost-effec-
tive alternative for the application in polyolefin films and injection
molding as well as in PVC.
All products from the isoindoline range (Paliotol
Yellow K 1841,
Paliotol
Yellow K 2142 H) are low-

warping in PE-HD and can be used in the respective applications.

Sicomin
pigments are solid solutions of lead chromate/lead sulfate

(yellow) or lead chromate/lead molybdate/lead sulfate (red) with very
good to outstanding fastness ratings. Grades suffixed by an S are
resistant to sulfur dioxide.
They are particularly suitable the coloration of PVC for a variety of
applications such as calendar films, floor coverings, profiles, tubings,
sheets and cable sheathings. Their advantage is a low pigmentation
cost.
For the coloration of PE and PS, Sicomin
pigments are resistant to

temperatures of 240C/464F or 260C/500F.
Sicomin
pigments are lead-chromate pigments subject to hazard

labeling and in almost all countries, their use is limited. Please refer
to the Data sheet on product safety and the material safety data
sheet of the relevant pigment.

Yellow K 1120 FG and Sicopal
Yellow K 1160 FG, Sicopal
pig-
ments are spinel-structured metal oxides. Their very good heat re-
sistance makes them suitable for the coloration of nearly all
plastics.
Sicopal
pigments cause no warpage in injection-molded or ex-

truded parts not even large ones. This and their outstanding fast-
ness to weathering make them perfectly suitable for bottle crates.
Sicopal
Yellow K 1120 FG is a low-dusting fine granule bismuth

vanadate pigment with excellent color strength and heat resis-
tance. Sicopal
Yellow K 1160 FG is not only suitable for polyole-

fins and ABS (thermo stability of 270290 C [518544 F]) but for
PA injection molding as well (280300 C [536572 F]). Their out-
standing fastness to weathering make them particularly suitable for
outdoor applications (bottle crates, garden furniture, garbage cans)
as a substitute to lead- or cadmium-based pigments.
Sicopal
Brown K 2595 and Sicopal
Brown K 2795 are outstand-

ingly fast to weathering in outdoor applications when stabilized
suitably (dibasic lead phosphite). Both a balanced recipe and easy
processing are essential. Due to the many established PVC stabili-
zation systems based on calcium/zinc or certain tin compounds,
we recommend suitability tests under customer-specific process-
ing parameters.

The Lumogen
F range comprises high-purity fluorescent dyes of

polycyclic nature. They show a very brilliant fluorescence and have
outstanding fastness properties.

The best-suited carrier material for Lumogen
F dyes is PMMA if
outdoor application is intended. Foreign substances contained in
PMMA may decrease the fastness to weathering.
Sheets made by casting from monomeric MMA usually contain
small proportions of monomer and reaction initiator. In tests such
material has shown to impair the resistance of weathering. When
casting sheets, the temperature during curing must be checked
carefully to fully avoid residues of monomers. This problem will not
arise when PMMA thermo-forming material is used.
In outdoor weathering, a decrease of fluorescence during summer
has shown to recuperate to almost its original level during the
darker winter season.

The ability of fluorescent dyes to emit absorbed light at different
wavelengths can be used to collect light. The fluorescent collector
consists of a crystal-clear plastic sheet colored with a fluorescent
dye. Within the sheet, total reflectance will divert fluorescent radia-
tion to the borders of the sheet, from where the largest share is fo-
cused and emitted. Unlike systems of mirrors and lenses, the
fluorescent collector will also concentrate diffused, undirected light.
Use of the fluorescent collector is manifold:
solar energy
photo voltaics by mounting solar cells to the edges of the collec-
tor, sufficient energy to operate small devices like watches, pocket
computers, electrical displays, radios, recharging devices etc. can
be produced.
light engineering
indirect illumination, fluorescence conversion, markings and warn-
ing devices, e. g., for road traffic (these are particularly effective in
bad weather and at dawn), safety clothing, optical fibers for techni-
cal appliances
advertising/design
information signs, sports and leisure articles, toys, substitutes for
luminescent tubes
For these applications, fluorescent dyes must meet very high
requirements:
excellent fastness properties in certain polymers
high luminance
extremely high chroma
good solubility in plastics
high heat stability

Application
Lumogen
F dyes meet these requirements to a great extent and

conform to the specifications of the fluorescent collector.
Lumogen
F dyes can be used with all crystal-clear polymers.

Migration or bleeding must be expected with polymers containing
butadiene or plasticizers or in semi-crystalline polymers. Pre-trials
are strongly recommended for these applications.
Processing The dyestuff powder is distributed among the polymer powder, grit
or granules in slow or quick mixers. Generally, the dyestuff powder
will adhere to the polymer by electrostatic charge. Prior to further
processing the mixture should be homogenized on an extruder.
Dosage The concentration of dyestuff required depends on the thickness of
the part to be colored. Normally, very low dosages of between
0.005 % and 0.02 % will suffice.

The essential characteristic in terms of application for all Thermo-
plast dyes is their solubility in almost all amorphous polymers and
polymer melts.
The dyes distinguish themselves by high color strength and subse-
quent efficiency. They result in pure vivid shades. They can be
mixed freely with one another or with organic or inorganic pig-
ments. Each and every desired hue may be attained. For opaque
colorations a scattering white or chromatic pigment is added.
Application Sometimes, the shade of a coloration is influenced by the opacity
or the inherent color of a polymer. A shade in standard polystyrene
may be different from that in polycarbonate. Important factors are
the solubility characteristics of the dye and any chemical interac-
tions between the dye and the polymer.
The solvatochromy (solubilized chromatic substances display differ-
ent color hues in media of different polarity) plays an important role.
To ensure optimum fluorescence when transparent plastics are col-
ored with Thermoplast F Yellow 084, attention must be paid to the
concentration of the dye and the thickness of the finished article.
Maximum fluorescence is attained at a concentration of approx.
0.01 % Thermoplast F Yellow 084 in specimens of 2 mm thickness
and at approx. 0.05 % in 0.2 mm specimens. Excessive amounts of
dye quench the fluorescence.

Thermoplastics based on cellulose, such as cellulose acetate (CA)
and cellulose acetobutyrate (CAB), can also be colored with solu-
ble dyes. However, the fastness to migration of the intended col-
oration should first be tested.
Dyes are not recommended for coloring polyethylene, polypropyl-
ene and especially PVC that contains plasticizer, because in these
cases migration can be expected to occur. These plastics are col-
ored almost exclusively with pigments.
Note that dyes can alter the curing time of colored thermoset plas-
tics such as unsaturated polyesters (UP).
Coloration is carried out in two steps:
The dry dyestuff powder is evenly distributed on the plastic
powder, grit or granules in slow or quick mixers. Generally,
the dyestuff will adhere to the plastics surface by
electrostatic charging.
When mixing relatively large proportions of dyestuff with
plastic pellets, it may be necessary to prewet the pellets with
an adhesion agent (low-viscous, neutral media such as
Adhesion Agent W 1700). The proportion required must be
determined empirically, adding 0.1 % to 0.3 % relative to the
polymer are usually sufficient.
Better distribution of the dye is achieved by first producing a
concentrate which is then brought to the desired
concentration in the same mixing vessel:
fill about of the vessel with the polymer
add the adhesion agent
add the dyestuff
mix
add remaining polymer

mix

Preferably, the mixing vessel should be of uncoated metal to avoid
undesired electrostatic charging of the vessel wall.
Adhesion Agent W 1700 will avoid electrostatic charging so mixing
can be done in PE-HD drums to prevent metal abrasion.
