BASF X45/ CN Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for BASF X45/CN Pigment?

A: BASF X45/CN Pigment is specifically developed for demanding coloration applications in thermoplastic polymers, with strong performance in polyolefins (e.g., PP and PE), engineering plastics, and masterbatch systems requiring high thermal stability and good dispersion characteristics.


Q2: Is BASF X45/CN Pigment suitable for food-contact or pharmaceutical packaging applications?

A: While BASF X45/CN Pigment is manufactured under strict quality control and complies with general good manufacturing practices, its suitability for food-contact or pharmaceutical use depends on final regulatory assessment by the formulator and end-user. It is not pre-approved for such applications—compliance must be verified case-by-case against applicable regional regulations and migration requirements.


Q3: How should BASF X45/CN Pigment be dispersed in polymer matrices?

A: Optimal dispersion is achieved using standard compounding equipment such as twin-screw extruders. Pre-mixing with carrier resin or diluent is recommended to ensure uniform distribution. Processing temperatures should remain within the pigment’s specified thermal stability window to avoid degradation or hue shift.


Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?

A: Store in original sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat or ignition. Avoid exposure to moisture and incompatible materials. Handle in well-ventilated areas using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to minimize dust inhalation and skin contact.
