Clariant Permanent Bordeaux FRR and... Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the primary application areas for Clariant Permanent Bordeaux FRR pigment?

A: This high-performance organic pigment is widely used in demanding industrial applications including automotive coatings, coil coatings, and high-gloss architectural paints where excellent lightfastness, thermal stability, and color strength are required. It is also suitable for select engineering plastics processing conditions.


Q2: Is Clariant Permanent Bordeaux FRR compatible with common polymer systems?

A: Yes — it demonstrates good compatibility with a range of thermoplastics including polyolefins, ABS, and polystyrene. Performance in specific polymer matrices depends on processing temperature, residence time, and formulation additives; compatibility testing under actual production conditions is recommended.


Q3: How does this pigment perform under outdoor exposure?

A: Clariant Permanent Bordeaux FRR offers very good to excellent lightfastness and weather resistance, particularly when properly dispersed and used in appropriate resin systems. Its performance in exterior applications benefits from UV stabilizers and protective topcoats in coating formulations.


Q4: What dispersion methods are recommended for optimal color development?

A: High-shear dispersion techniques — such as bead milling, high-speed dissolvers, or three-roll mills — are typically employed to achieve full pigment development and consistent color strength. Pre-dispersed paste or masterbatch forms are also available to simplify integration into various systems.


Q5: Can this pigment be used in food-contact or pharmaceutical applications?

A: Clariant Permanent Bordeaux FRR is not intended for direct food-contact or pharmaceutical use. It is designed for industrial and decorative applications where regulatory compliance for consumer-facing products is not required. For regulated end-uses, consult Clariant’s dedicated food-safe pigment portfolio.
