Clariant Novoperm Red F5RK Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Novoperm Red F5RK?

A: Novoperm Red F5RK is a high-performance perylene-based organic pigment, known for its excellent thermal stability, lightfastness, and resistance to migration in demanding polymer applications.


Q2: Is Novoperm Red F5RK 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 materials requires full formulation-level compliance assessment by the end-user, including evaluation of intended conditions of use and applicable local regulations.


Q3: Which polymers is Novoperm Red F5RK most commonly used in?

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


Q4: How does Novoperm Red F5RK perform under high-shear compounding conditions?

A: The pigment exhibits good shear stability during extrusion and injection molding, maintaining consistent hue and minimal color shift—provided proper dispersion protocols and carrier resin selection are followed.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for achieving optimal color strength and stability?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired opacity or transparency, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in the final polymer matrix.
