Clariant Hostatint Oxide Yellow A-R 100 Color Paste – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Hostatint Oxide Yellow A-R 100?

A: Hostatint Oxide Yellow A-R 100 is a pigment-based color paste formulated with inorganic iron oxide yellow pigments dispersed in a non-ionic, water-miscible vehicle system. It contains no heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, or chromium(VI), and is designed for compatibility with polar polymer systems.


Q2: Is this color paste suitable for use in food-contact plastics?

A: Hostatint Oxide Yellow A-R 100 is developed for applications where regulatory compliance is required; it meets general industry expectations for food-contact suitability in polyolefins and other common thermoplastics. However, final regulatory approval depends on the complete formulation, processing conditions, and end-use jurisdiction — users must conduct their own verification per applicable local regulations.


Q3: How should this paste be incorporated into polymer melts during compounding?

A: The paste is typically introduced via side-stuffer feeder or liquid injection system directly into the extruder barrel. Pre-drying of the base polymer is recommended to minimize moisture-related dispersion issues. Good melt homogenization time and moderate shear conditions generally support optimal pigment distribution.


Q4: Does this product exhibit good thermal stability during standard plastic processing?

A: Yes — the iron oxide yellow pigment system offers inherent thermal stability up to approximately 250 °C, making it suitable for conventional polyolefin, PS, and ABS processing. Performance may vary slightly depending on residence time and local temperature profiles within the processing equipment.


Q5: What are typical dosage levels when using this paste in polypropylene applications?

A: Dosage is formulation-dependent, but typical usage ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight in polypropylene to achieve target shade intensity and opacity. Lower concentrations often suffice for pastel tones, while higher loadings may be used for deeper shades or improved hiding power — always confirm color consistency via lab-scale trials.
