Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Clariant Permanent Red FGR 70?
A: Clariant Permanent Red FGR 70 is a high-performance, polycyclic aromatic pigment belonging to the perylene diimide family, known for exceptional thermal stability and lightfastness.
Q2: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact plastics?
A: Clariant Permanent Red FGR 70 is not approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. It is intended for non-food-contact industrial and decorative uses, including automotive interior parts and general-purpose engineering plastics.
Q3: How does FGR 70 perform in high-temperature processing such as injection molding?
A: This pigment demonstrates excellent thermal stability and retains its color integrity during high-shear, high-temperature polymer processing — including injection molding and extrusion of engineering thermoplastics up to approximately 300 °C.
Q4: What types of polymers is FGR 70 typically compatible with?
A: It shows good compatibility and dispersion behavior in a wide range of thermoplastics, including polyolefins (PP, PE), polystyrene, ABS, and engineering resins such as polyesters and polyamides — though optimal performance requires appropriate dispersion aids and compounding protocols.
Q5: What is the typical dosage range when using FGR 70 in plastic masterbatches?
A: Dosage depends on the required shade strength and polymer system, but it is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in final compounds — due to its high tinting strength and efficient color development.
