BASF Paliogen Maroon L392... Organic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the primary application areas for Paliogen Maroon L392?

A: Paliogen Maroon L392 is widely used in high-performance industrial coatings, automotive basecoats, and engineering plastics where excellent heat stability, lightfastness, and chromatic strength are required. It is also suitable for select ink systems demanding maroon-to-burgundy shades with good dispersion behavior.


Q2: How does Paliogen Maroon L392 perform under thermal processing conditions?

A: This pigment exhibits good thermal stability, making it suitable for melt-processing applications such as polyolefin and engineering thermoplastic compounding. Performance remains consistent at typical extrusion and injection molding temperatures, though prolonged exposure above 280 °C may affect shade intensity depending on the polymer matrix and residence time.


Q3: Is Paliogen Maroon L392 compatible with common organic solvent-based and water-based coating systems?

A: Yes — it demonstrates good compatibility and dispersion stability in both solvent-borne systems (e.g., acrylic, polyester, and polyurethane resins) and selected waterborne formulations when properly dispersed using appropriate surfactants or polymeric dispersants. Optimization of grinding and stabilization is recommended to achieve optimal gloss and color development.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range for achieving full opacity and chromatic strength?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired shade depth, but Paliogen Maroon L392 is typically used at low concentrations due to its high tinctorial strength. In most coating and plastic applications, effective loading generally ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the total formulation.
