USE:

Used for manufacturing and colouring:

• in construction industry - due to their properties, non-organic pigments are indispensable in colouring building materials, hydraulically pressed products, prefabricated products, ready-mix concrete (e.g. paving blocks, fences, tiles, silicate bricks, cement roofing tiles, concrete mortars, grouts, terrazzo, concrete mix)
• paint and varnish industry - for product colouring, they excellently mix in paint binders, organic solvents, ensuring full colour saturation
• plastic products industry - as pigment and filler in production of plastic elements, e.g. tiles, floor linings, barrels, boxes, film, PVC, etc.
• rubber industry - as fillers and pigments
• ceramic, glass, foundry, textile industries, as a component for production of brake blocks, etc.

PROPERTIES:

Non-organic pigments are characterised by:

• better resistance to light and weather conditions: they do not lose colour when exposed to sunlight and, e.g. acid rain
• resistance to low and high temperatures
• resistance to alkali and weak acids
• non-solubility in water, paint binders, organic solvents (yet they are mixable)

PACKAGING:

They come in different packaging, depending on colour and type:
powdered and granulated - multi-layer bagse 20kg-25kg, big-bag 500kg-1000kg.

Dosage:

Recommended dosage varies from 3% to 8%, depending on the type of a specific pigment
