Cathay FLOWTINT Yellow FF5015 Inorganic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Cathay FLOWTINT Yellow FF5015?

A: Cathay FLOWTINT Yellow FF5015 is a high-performance inorganic yellow pigment based on a modified iron oxide–zinc oxide composite system, engineered for enhanced thermal stability and chromatic consistency in demanding polymer processing environments.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact plastics?

A: While FF5015 is designed for regulatory compliance in many general-purpose applications, its use in food-contact plastics requires formal evaluation against applicable regional regulations (e.g., FDA 21 CFR, EU Plastics Regulation) and validation through migration testing by the end-user’s qualified laboratory.


Q3: How does FF5015 perform under high-temperature processing conditions?

A: FF5015 exhibits excellent thermal stability, maintaining color integrity and minimal decomposition during standard melt processing of polyolefins, engineering thermoplastics, and masterbatch production up to approximately 280°C for typical residence times.


Q4: What is the recommended dosage range for optimal color development?

A: Dosage depends on the base polymer, desired shade intensity, and processing method; FF5015 is typically used at low concentrations, generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in final compounds or as a concentrated masterbatch.
