Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RA11AB Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RA11AB?

A: Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RA11AB is a high-performance inorganic red pigment based on a stabilized iron oxide–chromium oxide composite system, engineered for enhanced thermal stability and color consistency in demanding industrial applications.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in high-temperature coating systems such as coil coatings or powder coatings?

A: Yes — RA11AB is specifically formulated to retain its chromatic integrity and dispersion stability at processing temperatures up to 250 °C, making it well-suited for coil coatings, architectural powder coatings, and other thermally cured systems.


Q3: How does RA11AB compare to organic red pigments in terms of weathering resistance?

A: As an inorganic pigment, RA11AB offers significantly superior UV resistance, chalking resistance, and long-term color retention compared to most organic reds — particularly under prolonged outdoor exposure or aggressive industrial environments.


Q4: What is the recommended method for incorporating RA11AB into water-based versus solvent-based systems?

A: For optimal dispersion, pre-wetting with compatible surfactants or dispersing agents is advised. In water-based systems, use non-ionic or anionic stabilizers; in solvent-based systems, low-molecular-weight polymeric dispersants are typically preferred. Milling time and energy input should be adjusted based on the base resin viscosity and target fineness.
