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

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

A: Hostaperm Yellow H3G is a high-performance, beta-phase quinacridone derivative pigment, offering excellent lightfastness, weather resistance, and thermal stability suitable for demanding polymer applications.


Q2: Is Hostaperm Yellow H3G suitable for food-contact plastics?

A: This pigment is not pre-approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. Its use in food-contact articles requires full formulation-level compliance assessment by the end-user, including migration testing and regulatory review per applicable jurisdiction.


Q3: Which polymers is Hostaperm Yellow H3G most commonly used in?

A: It demonstrates excellent compatibility and dispersion stability in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), particularly in applications requiring high-temperature processing and long-term color retention.


Q4: How does Hostaperm Yellow H3G perform under outdoor exposure?

A: Thanks to its robust molecular structure, it delivers outstanding UV resistance and chalk resistance in exterior-grade polymer applications—commonly used in automotive exterior parts and durable consumer goods where long-term color stability is critical.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for Hostaperm Yellow H3G in polymer masterbatches?

A: Dosage depends on the required color strength and opacity, but it is generally used at low concentrations—typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in final polymer formulations—due to its high tinctorial strength and efficient dispersion characteristics.
