Cathay CATHAYCOAT Yellow YS22B Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay CATHAYCOAT Yellow YS22B?

A: Cathay CATHAYCOAT Yellow YS22B is a high-performance inorganic yellow pigment based on a stabilized complex metal oxide system, engineered for thermal and chemical robustness in demanding industrial applications.


Q2: Is YS22B suitable for use in high-temperature coating systems such as coil coatings or powder coatings?

A: Yes — YS22B is specifically formulated to retain color stability and dispersion integrity at elevated processing and curing temperatures, making it well-suited for coil coatings, architectural powder coatings, and other thermally demanding systems.


Q3: How does YS22B compare to organic yellow pigments in terms of weathering resistance?

A: As an inorganic pigment, YS22B offers significantly superior UV stability, chalking resistance, and long-term color retention compared to most organic yellows—especially under prolonged outdoor exposure or aggressive industrial environments.


Q4: Can YS22B be used in solvent-based, water-based, and high-solids coating formulations?

A: Yes — YS22B demonstrates broad compatibility across solvent-borne, aqueous, and high-solids resin systems, including acrylics, polyesters, epoxies, and alkyds, when properly dispersed using standard industrial techniques.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for YS22B in industrial coating applications?

A: Dosage depends on the desired opacity, hue strength, and formulation requirements, but YS22B is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in the final coating system.
