Cathay FERROTINT Blue F28A Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay FERROTINT Blue F28A?

A: Cathay FERROTINT Blue F28A is a high-performance inorganic pigment based on modified iron oxide–cobalt spinel chemistry, engineered to deliver strong blue coloration with enhanced thermal and chemical stability.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in high-temperature polymer processing?

A: Yes — F28A exhibits excellent thermal stability and is routinely used in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide, polyester, and polyphenylene sulfide processed at temperatures up to 300 °C without significant hue shift or degradation.


Q3: How does F28A compare to organic blue pigments in terms of lightfastness and weather resistance?

A: As an inorganic spinel pigment, F28A offers significantly superior lightfastness, UV resistance, and atmospheric stability compared to most organic blues — making it preferred for outdoor applications and long-life color-critical components.


Q4: Can F28A be dispersed in aqueous systems for coatings or inks?

A: Yes — with appropriate surface treatment and dispersant selection, F28A can be effectively stabilized in water-based formulations, including architectural paints, industrial coatings, and certain ink systems.
