Cathay CATHAYPURE Red R2135 Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of CATHAYPURE Red R2135?

A: CATHAYPURE Red R2135 is an iron oxide-based inorganic pigment, primarily composed of hematite (α-Fe₂O₃), engineered for high color strength, thermal stability, and chemical inertness in demanding industrial applications.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in food-contact plastics or coatings?

A: CATHAYPURE Red R2135 is not certified for direct food-contact applications. It is formulated for general-purpose industrial uses including construction materials, architectural coatings, and non-food packaging—always verify regulatory compliance with local authorities prior to use in regulated segments.


Q3: How does R2135 perform under high-temperature processing conditions?

A: As a thermally stable inorganic pigment, R2135 maintains its color integrity and structural properties during typical polymer processing (e.g., extrusion, injection molding) and ceramic firing up to approximately 1000°C, making it well-suited for heat-intensive manufacturing environments.


Q4: Can R2135 be dispersed effectively in water-based systems?

A: Yes—R2135 can be successfully dispersed in aqueous media using conventional wetting agents and dispersers. Optimal dispersion typically requires mechanical energy input (e.g., high-speed stirring or bead milling) and formulation-specific surfactant selection to ensure stability and uniform color development.
