Clariant Hansa Red R Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Hansa Red R pigment?

A: Hansa Red R is an organic monoazo pigment based on a substituted arylide chemistry, offering balanced hue strength, lightfastness, and dispersibility in common polymer and coating systems.


Q2: Is Hansa Red R suitable for food-contact applications?

A: Hansa Red R is not approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. It may be used in non-food-contact layers of packaging or in industrial coatings where migration risk is controlled and compliance with end-use regulations is verified by the formulator.


Q3: How does Hansa Red R perform in polyolefin applications?

A: Hansa Red R demonstrates good thermal stability and dispersion behavior in polyolefins such as PP and HDPE at typical processing temperatures. It is commonly used in injection-molded and blow-molded parts where moderate lightfastness and cost-effective red shading are required.


Q4: What types of solvents or resins is Hansa Red R compatible with?

A: Hansa Red R exhibits broad compatibility with common thermoplastic resins (e.g., PVC, ABS, PS) and solvent-based systems including alkyds, acrylics, and nitrocellulose lacquers. Its performance in water-based dispersions depends on proper surfactant-assisted stabilization and pH control.


Q5: What is the recommended dosage range for optimal color development?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired opacity or transparency, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in polymer masterbatches or liquid coatings.
