Q1: What types of polymer systems is Colanyl Yellow HRD 131 most commonly used in?
A: Colanyl Yellow HRD 131 is specifically formulated for use in polyolefin-based systems, including PP and PE, and demonstrates good compatibility in thermoplastic elastomers and certain engineering plastics. It is not recommended for high-temperature engineering resins requiring extended thermal stability above 260 °C.
Q2: How should this color paste be incorporated into the base polymer during processing?
A: The paste is typically introduced via gravimetric or volumetric dosing directly into the extruder feed throat or side feeder. Pre-blending with a portion of the base resin prior to extrusion can improve dispersion uniformity, especially in high-output or highly filled formulations.
Q3: Does Colanyl Yellow HRD 131 contain heavy metals or halogens?
A: This product is formulated without intentionally added heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, mercury or hexavalent chromium, and is free from brominated and chlorinated flame retardants. It complies with Clariant’s internal restricted substances list aligned with global regulatory expectations for general-purpose colorants.
Q4: What is the typical dosage range for achieving full opacity or strong chroma in polypropylene?
A: Dosage depends on the required shade depth and substrate opacity, but typical usage in PP ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight. For standard yellow tones, concentrations near the lower end of this range are often sufficient due to the high tinting strength of the pigment system.
