Cathay FERROTINT Orange F6650 Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay FERROTINT Orange F6650?

A: Cathay FERROTINT Orange F6650 is an iron oxide-based inorganic pigment, formulated as a complex mixed-metal oxide system designed to deliver stable orange hue and high thermal stability. It does not contain heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, or chromium(VI).


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in heat-sensitive polymer systems such as polyolefins or PVC?

A: Yes — F6650 exhibits excellent thermal stability and is widely used in thermoplastic and thermoset applications, including polypropylene, polyethylene, and rigid PVC, where processing temperatures range up to 240°C. Its inorganic nature ensures minimal color shift during extrusion or injection molding.


Q3: How does F6650 perform under UV exposure and outdoor weathering conditions?

A: As a fully inorganic oxide pigment, F6650 offers outstanding UV resistance and lightfastness. It maintains color integrity and shows negligible fading or chalking in exterior applications, making it well-suited for architectural coatings, plastic building profiles, and agricultural films.


Q4: Can F6650 be dispersed effectively in water-based systems?

A: Yes — with appropriate surface treatment and standard dispersion protocols (e.g., high-shear mixing or bead milling), F6650 achieves stable, uniform dispersion in aqueous media such as latex paints, waterborne industrial coatings, and ink formulations.
