Clariant Colanyl Red GG 131 Color Paste – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Colanyl Red GG 131 Color Paste?

A: Colanyl Red GG 131 is specifically developed for coloring polyolefin-based compounds, especially in applications requiring good thermal stability and dispersion performance during extrusion and injection molding—such as automotive interior parts, consumer packaging, and technical molded goods.


Q2: Is this color paste suitable for food-contact or pharmaceutical applications?

A: Colanyl Red GG 131 is not pre-qualified for direct food-contact or pharmaceutical use. Its suitability for such regulated applications depends on final formulation validation, including compatibility with base polymer, processing conditions, and compliance with relevant regional regulatory frameworks.


Q3: How should Colanyl Red GG 131 be incorporated into a polymer matrix?

A: It is typically added directly to the base polymer during compounding—via side-stuffer feeder, gravimetric dosing, or premixing—prior to extrusion. Good dispersion is achieved under standard melt-processing conditions; pre-drying is generally not required unless ambient humidity is exceptionally high.


Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?

A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Avoid freezing. Ensure lids are tightly closed after each use to prevent skinning or moisture uptake. Always observe standard industrial hygiene practices when handling.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for achieving target shade intensity?

A: Dosage depends on the base polymer, desired opacity, and final application requirements, but it is generally used at low concentrations—typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the polymer matrix.
