BASF Heliogen Green D 9360 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class and crystal structure of Heliogen Green D 9360?

A: Heliogen Green D 9360 is a high-performance copper phthalocyanine-based pigment, specifically formulated as the alpha-phase polymorph. Its molecular architecture delivers exceptional green hue strength, thermal stability, and lightfastness in demanding applications.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in food-contact plastics or packaging inks?

A: Heliogen Green D 9360 is not approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. It is intended for non-food-contact industrial coatings, automotive finishes, and general-purpose plastics where high chroma and durability are required.


Q3: How does its dispersibility compare in water-based versus solvent-based systems?

A: The pigment exhibits good dispersibility in both polar solvent-based systems and aqueous dispersions when processed with appropriate surfactants or polymeric dispersants. Optimal performance typically requires high-shear dispersion to achieve full color development and stable rheology.


Q4: What are typical dosage ranges in plastic masterbatches and coil coating formulations?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired opacity or transparency, but it is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in thermoplastic masterbatches and from 0.5% to 1.5% in coil coating pigmented primers.
