Clariant Hostatint Yellow 12G 500 Color Paste – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Hostatint Yellow 12G 500?

A: Hostatint Yellow 12G 500 is a high-performance organic pigment dispersion specifically developed for coloring polyolefin compounds—especially injection-molded and extruded PP and PE parts—where excellent heat stability, lightfastness, and dispersion quality are required.


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

A: Hostatint Yellow 12G 500 is formulated without heavy metals and complies with general requirements for indirect food contact in polyolefins, subject to final regulatory review and end-use conditions. Users must verify compliance with applicable regional regulations and conduct appropriate migration testing for their specific application.


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

A: It is typically added directly during compounding—via side feeder or gravimetric dosing—and disperses efficiently under standard melt processing conditions. Pre-drying is not required, but good mixing intensity and residence time are recommended to ensure uniform distribution and optimal color development.


Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?

A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from direct sunlight and freezing conditions. Avoid prolonged exposure to air to prevent surface skinning. Stir gently before use if sedimentation occurs after extended storage.
