Pigment Yellow 12 Usage
Printing Ink Industry: It is one of the four largest organic pigments in the global ink industry. Due to its vibrant color, extremely strong tinting strength, and high transparency, it is widely used in offset inks, water-based inks, solvent-based gravure inks for packaging, and newsprint inks. It is the core component of yellow in four-color printing.
Plastics and Masterbatches: Suitable for coloring plastics at low processing temperatures (< 200°C), such as PVC and PE masterbatches and coloring flexible plastic products.
Paints and Stationery: Used for tinting latex paints and general industrial paints; due to its non-toxicity and vibrant color, it is also widely used in the manufacture of printing pigments, watercolor/gouache paints, crayons, and stationery inks.
