Clariant Anodal SH-1 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Clariant Anodal SH-1 Pigment?

A: Clariant Anodal SH-1 Pigment is specifically developed for use in anodized aluminum coloring applications, where it delivers stable, lightfast, and electrolytically stable coloration during the anodizing process—particularly suited for architectural, automotive, and consumer electronics components requiring high-quality metallic finishes.


Q2: Is Anodal SH-1 compatible with standard sulfuric acid anodizing baths?

A: Yes, Anodal SH-1 is formulated to be fully compatible with conventional sulfuric acid-based anodizing electrolytes. It exhibits excellent stability under typical operating conditions—including standard bath temperatures, current densities, and pH ranges—without compromising oxide layer integrity or color uniformity.


Q3: How is Anodal SH-1 typically dosed in the anodizing bath?

A: Dosage is formulation- and process-dependent, but Anodal SH-1 is generally used at low concentrations—typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the electrolyte volume—to achieve consistent, reproducible color intensity without affecting bath conductivity or anodizing kinetics.


Q4: Does Anodal SH-1 require special handling or storage conditions?

A: For optimal performance and shelf life, store Anodal SH-1 in its original sealed container at ambient temperature (15–25 °C), protected from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid freezing, and ensure containers are tightly closed after use to prevent contamination or degradation.
