Clariant Hostafine Blue SP-B2G Color Paste – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Hostafine Blue SP-B2G Color Paste?

A: Hostafine Blue SP-B2G is primarily formulated for coloring polyolefin-based plastics—especially PP and HDPE—in applications requiring high thermal stability, excellent dispersion, and good lightfastness, such as automotive interior components, technical parts, and durable consumer goods.


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

A: Hostafine Blue SP-B2G is designed for non-food-contact industrial applications. It is not certified for direct or indirect food contact under major global regulatory frameworks unless explicitly validated and approved by the end-user’s regulatory team in accordance with their specific formulation and processing conditions.


Q3: How should the paste be incorporated into polyolefin compounds?

A: The paste is typically introduced via masterbatch dilution or direct addition during compounding—using twin-screw extrusion or high-shear mixing. Good dispersion is achieved at standard polyolefin processing temperatures (180–240 °C), and pre-drying is generally not required due to its low moisture sensitivity.


Q4: Does Hostafine Blue SP-B2G offer resistance to migration in polymer blends?

A: Yes, it demonstrates low tendency to migrate in compatible polyolefin matrices under typical service conditions, owing to its optimized molecular structure and high compatibility with non-polar polymers. Migration performance may vary in polar blends or under extreme thermal or solvent exposure.


Q5: What is the recommended dosage range for achieving standard blue shades?

A: Dosage depends on the target shade strength and base polymer opacity, but typical usage ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the final compound. Lower concentrations are often sufficient for medium-to-light shades, while deeper tones may require higher loadings—always verified through lab-scale trials.
