Q1: What is the primary particle morphology and surface treatment of DOROLAN 10 1?
A: DOROLAN 10 1 features spherical aluminum particles with a controlled particle size distribution and a proprietary inorganic surface coating optimized for stability in solvent-based systems and resistance to oxidation during processing.
Q2: Is DOROLAN 10 1 suitable for use in water-based coatings?
A: While primarily designed for solvent-borne applications, DOROLAN 10 1 can be incorporated into water-based systems with appropriate dispersants and pH control; however, performance and long-term dispersion stability may require formulation optimization and compatibility testing.
Q3: How does DOROLAN 10 1 compare to flake-type metallic pigments in terms of orientation and visual effect?
A: Unlike conventional flake pigments, the spherical morphology of DOROLAN 10 1 provides reduced orientation dependency, resulting in more uniform sparkle and less pronounced flop—ideal for applications where consistent appearance under varying viewing angles is critical.
Q4: What are key handling and storage recommendations to maintain pigment performance?
A: Store in original sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sources of ignition; avoid exposure to moisture or strong oxidizing agents. Always use grounded equipment during handling to prevent electrostatic discharge, and ensure adequate ventilation when processing.
Q5: Can DOROLAN 10 1 be used in high-temperature curing processes?
A: Yes—DOROLAN 10 1 exhibits good thermal stability up to typical industrial baking temperatures (e.g., ≤200 °C), maintaining its metallic luster and structural integrity without significant oxidation or darkening under standard cure profiles.
