Clariant Permanent GRX 86 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Permanent GRX 86?

A: Permanent GRX 86 is a high-performance quinacridone-based organic pigment, known for its excellent lightfastness, thermal stability, and strong red-violet hue.


Q2: Is Permanent GRX 86 suitable for food-contact plastics?

A: Permanent GRX 86 is not certified for direct food-contact applications. It may be considered for non-migrating, indirect food-contact uses only after thorough regulatory review and migration testing by the end-user’s qualified laboratory.


Q3: Which polymer systems show optimal dispersion and color development with this pigment?

A: Permanent GRX 86 delivers excellent performance in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), especially under high-temperature processing conditions.


Q4: How should Permanent GRX 86 be dispersed to achieve maximum color strength and stability?

A: Optimal dispersion is achieved using high-shear compounding equipment—such as twin-screw extruders—with appropriate temperature profiles and residence time. Pre-dispersed masterbatches are recommended for consistent results in demanding applications.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range for Permanent GRX 86 in plastic coloration?

A: Dosage depends on the desired shade intensity and substrate, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—in most engineering plastic applications.
