Clariant Hostaperm Orange GR and Co... Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the primary application areas for Hostaperm Orange GR and Co... Pigment?

A: This high-performance organic pigment is widely used in demanding industrial applications including automotive coatings, coil coatings, and high-end plastics—particularly where excellent lightfastness, thermal stability, and weather resistance are required. It is also suitable for selected ink systems requiring strong orange hue and good dispersibility.


Q2: How does Hostaperm Orange GR compare to standard azo orange pigments in terms of durability?

A: As a member of Clariant’s Hostaperm® high-stability pigment family, Hostaperm Orange GR offers significantly improved lightfastness, heat stability, and chemical resistance compared to conventional mono-azo orange pigments. Its robust molecular structure enables reliable performance in applications exposed to elevated processing temperatures or prolonged UV exposure.


Q3: Is this pigment suitable for use in food-contact plastics?

A: Hostaperm Orange GR and Co... Pigment is not approved for direct food-contact applications under current global regulatory frameworks. It is intended for non-food-contact industrial uses. For any food-contact scenario, a dedicated, fully compliant pigment grade must be selected and validated per applicable regional requirements.


Q4: What dispersion guidance should be followed during formulation?

A: Optimal dispersion typically requires high-shear mixing with appropriate wetting agents and stabilizers tailored to the base resin or vehicle. Dosage depends on formulation requirements, but the pigment is generally used at low concentrations—typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—to achieve target chroma and opacity without compromising rheology or film integrity.
