Clariant Agrocer Violet 023 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Agrocer Violet 023?

A: Agrocer Violet 023 is specifically developed for agricultural plastic applications, including mulch films, greenhouse covers, and irrigation tapes, where light management and UV stability are critical performance requirements.


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

A: Agrocer Violet 023 is not intended for direct food-contact applications. It is formulated for non-food-contact agricultural films and components, and compliance with food-contact regulations should be verified separately for specific end-use configurations.


Q3: How does Agrocer Violet 023 perform under prolonged UV exposure?

A: This pigment exhibits enhanced UV resistance due to its inorganic ceramic-based composition, supporting long-term color retention and minimal fading in outdoor agricultural film applications.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range when incorporating this pigment into polyethylene (PE) mulch films?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired optical effect, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in PE-based systems.


Q5: Can Agrocer Violet 023 be used in combination with other Agrocer pigments?

A: Yes—Agrocer Violet 023 is designed to be compatible with other pigments in the Agrocer portfolio, enabling customized spectral profiles for tailored light-filtering effects in agricultural films.
