Clariant Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01?

A: Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01 is a high-performance perylene-based organic pigment, known for its excellent lightfastness, thermal stability, and resistance to migration in demanding polymer systems.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact plastics?

A: Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01 is not pre-approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. Its use in food-contact polymers requires full formulation-level compliance assessment by the end user, including extraction testing and regulatory review per applicable jurisdiction.


Q3: Which polymer systems show optimal performance with this pigment?

A: This pigment delivers outstanding dispersion stability and color strength in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), especially under high-temperature processing conditions.


Q4: How does Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01 compare to conventional diarylide yellows in terms of heat stability?

A: Unlike many diarylide yellow pigments, Hostaperm Yellow H3G 01 exhibits significantly higher thermal stability—remaining stable during melt processing of engineering plastics above 280 °C without noticeable color shift or decomposition.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range when using this pigment in polymer masterbatches?

A: Dosage depends on the target shade depth and polymer matrix, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in masterbatch formulations—to achieve strong, clean yellow hues with excellent opacity and durability.
