Clariant PERMANENT FBB 02 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class and typical hue of PERMANENT FBB 02?

A: PERMANENT FBB 02 is a high-performance perylene-based organic pigment, offering a clean, bluish-red shade with excellent chroma and strong tinting strength. It is not a dye or solvent-soluble colorant, but a crystalline, insoluble pigment designed for demanding dispersion applications.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact plastics or regulated packaging applications?

A: PERMANENT FBB 02 is not pre-approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. Its use in packaging requires full formulation-level compliance assessment by the end-user, including migration testing and regulatory review appropriate to the target market and application.


Q3: How does PERMANENT FBB 02 perform in terms of thermal stability and weather resistance?

A: This pigment exhibits very good thermal stability—suitable for standard polymer processing conditions including polyolefin extrusion and injection molding. It also demonstrates high lightfastness and excellent resistance to atmospheric pollutants, making it well-suited for outdoor applications where long-term color retention is critical.


Q4: What types of dispersants or surface treatments are typically recommended for optimal performance in polyolefins?

A: For polyolefin systems, PERMANENT FBB 02 performs best when compounded with non-ionic or low-polarity dispersants—such as ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers or functionalized polyolefin waxes. Optimal dispersion is achieved through high-shear melt compounding; pigment concentration generally ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight depending on opacity and shade intensity requirements.
