Clariant Sanodye Blue 2LW gran Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application field for Sanodye Blue 2LW gran pigment?

A: Sanodye Blue 2LW gran is specifically developed for coloring polyolefins—especially PP and PE—in injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion applications. Its granular form ensures excellent dosing accuracy and dispersion stability in high-throughput industrial processes.


Q2: How does the granular format benefit processing compared to powder pigments?

A: The free-flowing granules minimize dust generation, improve handling safety, and reduce segregation during storage and feeding. They also enhance melt compatibility and dispersion uniformity in thermoplastic compounds, especially at elevated processing temperatures typical for polyolefins.


Q3: Is this pigment suitable for food-contact applications?

A: Sanodye Blue 2LW gran is designed for use in polymers intended for indirect food contact, subject to compliance with applicable regional regulations. Final regulatory suitability depends on the full formulation, processing conditions, and end-use requirements—validation by the compounder or converter is recommended.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range when using this pigment in polypropylene?

A: Dosage generally ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight, depending on the desired shade intensity, base polymer properties, and processing method. It is typically used at low concentrations due to its high tinctorial strength and consistent batch-to-batch performance.
