Clariant PV Fast HGR 191 Organic Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class and typical hue profile of PV Fast HGR 191?

A: PV Fast HGR 191 is a high-performance quinacridone-based organic pigment, delivering a clean, bluish red shade with excellent chroma and strong tinting strength. Its molecular structure provides inherent resistance to thermal degradation and photolysis.


Q2: Is this pigment suitable for use in polyolefin masterbatches, and what processing conditions should be considered?

A: Yes, PV Fast HGR 191 is widely used in polypropylene and polyethylene masterbatches. It demonstrates good dispersibility and stability during high-shear compounding and melt processing at temperatures up to 280 °C. Optimal performance is achieved when combined with appropriate carrier resins and dispersing aids compatible with non-polar polymers.


Q3: How does PV Fast HGR 191 perform in terms of weatherfastness and lightfastness compared to conventional red pigments?

A: This pigment exhibits superior lightfastness and weatherfastness relative to many azo-based reds, particularly in outdoor applications. Its quinacridone backbone contributes to outstanding resistance to UV radiation and atmospheric exposure, making it well-suited for demanding exterior profiles and automotive trim components.


Q4: Can PV Fast HGR 191 be used in food-contact plastics, and what regulatory guidance applies?

A: PV Fast HGR 191 is not pre-approved for direct food-contact applications under major global regulatory frameworks. Formulators must verify compliance through full system assessment, including extraction testing and migration evaluation, in accordance with applicable regional requirements for final articles.


Q5: What are typical dosage levels when using this pigment in engineering thermoplastics like ABS or PC?

A: Dosage depends on the required shade depth and opacity, but PV Fast HGR 191 is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—in engineering thermoplastics. Its high tinctorial strength allows efficient coloration without compromising mechanical properties.
