Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS11-1 Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS11-1?

A: Cathay CATHAYCOAT Red RS11-1 is an iron oxide-based inorganic pigment, formulated to deliver high thermal stability and consistent red hue performance in demanding industrial coating systems.


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

A: Yes — RS11-1 exhibits excellent thermal stability and retains its color integrity during standard industrial baking cycles, including those exceeding 180°C, making it well-suited for coil coatings, automotive primers, and powder coating formulations.


Q3: How does RS11-1 perform in UV-exposed outdoor applications?

A: As a crystalline inorganic oxide pigment, RS11-1 offers inherent UV resistance and long-term weathering stability, supporting durable color retention in exterior architectural coatings and industrial maintenance paints without significant fading or chalking.


Q4: Can RS11-1 be used in waterborne coating systems?

A: Yes — RS11-1 is compatible with both solvent-borne and waterborne industrial coating systems. Its surface treatment ensures good dispersibility and stability across a range of pH and ionic strength conditions typical in aqueous formulations.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for optimal color development?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired opacity, but RS11-1 is typically used at low concentrations — generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight — due to its high tinting strength and efficient light absorption characteristics.
