Q1: What is the primary application area for Sanodal Orange 3LW Liq. Pigment?
A: Sanodal Orange 3LW Liq. Pigment is specifically developed for use in solvent-based and high-solids industrial coatings, including coil coatings, automotive refinishes, and general metal finishing systems where high chroma, lightfastness, and dispersion stability are required.
Q2: Is this pigment suitable for water-based systems?
A: Sanodal Orange 3LW Liq. Pigment is formulated for solvent-based media and is not inherently stable in pure water-based systems. Compatibility with aqueous dispersions would require formulation support, such as surfactant adjustment or pre-dispersion in a co-solvent medium — testing under actual process conditions is strongly recommended.
Q3: How should Sanodal Orange 3LW Liq. Pigment be incorporated into a coating formulation?
A: It is typically added during the let-down stage after binder addition. Good mechanical agitation is advised to ensure uniform distribution. Pre-dilution with a compatible solvent may improve incorporation efficiency, especially in high-viscosity systems.
Q4: What are the key handling and storage recommendations?
A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Avoid freezing. Stir gently before use if phase separation occurs after prolonged storage — this is normal and does not indicate degradation.
Q5: Does this pigment contain heavy metals or restricted aromatic amines?
A: Sanodal Orange 3LW Liq. Pigment is manufactured without intentionally added heavy metals (e.g., lead, cadmium, mercury, or hexavalent chromium) and is free from azo dyes that cleave to listed aromatic amines under regulated conditions. Compliance with major regional regulatory frameworks is maintained through Clariant’s quality management system.
