Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS10 Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS10?

A: Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS10 is a high-performance inorganic red pigment based on modified iron oxide and mixed metal oxides, engineered for thermal stability and consistent chromatic performance in demanding industrial coatings.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for high-temperature curing processes?

A: Yes — RS10 exhibits excellent thermal stability and retains its color integrity during standard industrial baking cycles up to 250°C, making it well-suited for coil coating, powder coating, and automotive OEM applications.


Q3: How does RS10 perform in UV-exposed outdoor applications?

A: RS10 delivers strong UV resistance due to its inorganic crystalline structure and surface stabilization, supporting long-term color retention in exterior architectural and industrial maintenance coatings without significant fading or chalking.


Q4: Can RS10 be used in water-based coating systems?

A: Yes — RS10 is compatible with both solvent-based and water-based industrial coating formulations, including acrylic, epoxy, and polyurethane dispersions, when properly dispersed using standard wetting and stabilization protocols.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for optimal color strength and dispersion efficiency?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired opacity, but RS10 is typically used at low concentrations — generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight — to achieve full chromatic development while maintaining rheological stability.
