Clariant Permanent Red FGR Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Clariant Permanent Red FGR Pigment?

A: Clariant Permanent Red FGR Pigment is a high-performance organic pigment based on the perylene diimide chemical class, offering exceptional thermal stability and lightfastness suitable for demanding industrial applications.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in food-contact plastics?

A: Clariant Permanent Red FGR Pigment is not approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. It is intended for non-food-contact industrial plastics, coatings, and specialty inks where high durability is required.


Q3: How does this pigment perform under high-temperature processing conditions?

A: This pigment demonstrates excellent thermal stability and retains its color integrity during standard polymer processing, including extrusion and injection molding at temperatures up to approximately 300 °C, depending on residence time and matrix composition.


Q4: What types of polymers is Clariant Permanent Red FGR Pigment commonly used in?

A: It is widely used in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), as well as in high-temperature coatings and solvent-based industrial inks.


Q5: What is the typical dosage range when incorporating this pigment into plastic compounds?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired shade intensity, but it is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—to achieve strong tinting strength and optimal dispersion without compromising mechanical properties.
