BASF 152/ 2GLN Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical nature of BASF 152/ 2GLN Pigment?

A: BASF 152/ 2GLN is an organic pigment dispersion formulated for high-performance applications, based on a high-purity azo-type chromophore system. It is supplied as a stable aqueous dispersion with proprietary polymeric dispersants to ensure compatibility and long-term colloidal stability.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact or pharmaceutical packaging inks?

A: BASF 152/ 2GLN is not pre-qualified for direct food-contact applications. Its suitability for regulated end uses depends on full formulation evaluation—including binder system, processing conditions, and final migration behavior—and must be confirmed through application-specific testing and regulatory review by the end-user.


Q3: How should BASF 152/ 2GLN be incorporated into water-based ink or coating systems?

A: The pigment dispersion is designed for direct addition to aqueous systems. It should be introduced under moderate agitation, followed by homogenization to ensure uniform distribution. Pre-dilution with compatible water or co-solvent may be used to aid incorporation, especially in high-viscosity formulations.


Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?

A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from freezing and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Avoid contamination during handling, and ensure equipment is clean and free of incompatible residues prior to use.
