Q1: What is the primary particle morphology and surface treatment of DOROLAN 35 0?
A: DOROLAN 35 0 features spherical aluminum particles with a controlled particle size distribution and a proprietary inorganic surface treatment optimized for stability in solvent-based systems and resistance to oxidation during processing.
Q2: Is DOROLAN 35 0 suitable for use in water-based coatings or inks?
A: While DOROLAN 35 0 is primarily designed and validated for solvent-borne applications, it may be incorporated into certain water-based systems with appropriate dispersants and pH control — however, performance and long-term stability should be verified through application-specific testing.
Q3: How does DOROLAN 35 0 differ from conventional flake-type metallic pigments in terms of optical effect?
A: Unlike traditional flake pigments that deliver high sparkle and directional reflectivity, DOROLAN 35 0’s spherical morphology provides a more uniform, soft metallic sheen with reduced orientation dependence — ideal for achieving consistent appearance in complex geometries and spray-applied finishes.
Q4: What are key handling and safety considerations during incorporation?
A: As with all fine metallic powders, avoid generation of airborne dust during handling. Use appropriate local exhaust ventilation and personal protective equipment (PPE), including respiratory protection where dust concentrations may exceed occupational exposure limits. Always follow ECKART’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and conduct risk assessments aligned with local regulations.
