BASF Irgazin Red L3250HD 2037 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class and structural type of Irgazin Red L3250HD 2037?

A: Irgazin Red L3250HD 2037 is a high-performance diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) pigment, characterized by its fused heterocyclic core, which delivers exceptional chromatic strength, thermal stability, and lightfastness.


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

A: Irgazin Red L3250HD 2037 is not certified for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. It is intended for non-food-contact industrial uses such as automotive coatings, industrial plastics, and general-purpose inks where high durability is required.


Q3: How does this grade differ from standard Irgazin Red L3250 in terms of processing and performance?

A: The “HD” designation indicates a high-dispersion version optimized for rapid and uniform incorporation into thermoplastic systems—particularly polyolefins and engineering resins—without requiring extended melt compounding. It offers improved rheological compatibility and reduced filter pressure buildup during extrusion.


Q4: What are typical dosage ranges when using this pigment in polypropylene (PP) or ABS plastic compounds?

A: Dosage depends on the desired shade depth and substrate opacity, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—to achieve strong, clean red tones with excellent dispersion stability.
