Clariant Sanodure Bronze 2LW Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Sanodure Bronze 2LW pigment?

A: Sanodure Bronze 2LW is specifically developed for decorative and functional metallic effect applications in water-based industrial coatings, including wood finishes, plastic coatings, and metal effect paints where low VOC and good compatibility with acrylic and polyurethane dispersions are required.


Q2: Is Sanodure Bronze 2LW compatible with common water-based resin systems?

A: Yes — it is formulated for excellent stability and dispersion in aqueous media and shows good compatibility with a wide range of waterborne acrylics, styrene-acrylics, and anionic polyurethane dispersions. Pre-dispersion and gentle mixing are recommended to maintain particle integrity and optical performance.


Q3: How does Sanodure Bronze 2LW differ from conventional bronze pigments in terms of handling and safety?

A: Unlike many solvent-based or non-stabilized bronze pigments, Sanodure Bronze 2LW is supplied as a pre-stabilized aqueous paste, reducing dust generation during handling and minimizing oxidation risk. It is not classified as flammable or acutely toxic under standard GHS criteria, supporting safer workplace practices in industrial coating operations.


Q4: What level of dosage is typically required to achieve optimal metallic effect?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired visual intensity, but it is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to total formulation solids — to deliver strong metallic luster while maintaining film integrity and rheological stability.
