Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Ferro 10364?
A: Ferro 10364 is a high-performance inorganic pigment based on a complex metal oxide system, engineered for thermal and chemical stability. Its exact proprietary formulation is protected under Ferro’s intellectual property, but it is confirmed to be free of regulated heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury.
Q2: Is Ferro 10364 suitable for use in food-contact plastics?
A: Yes, Ferro 10364 is designed for applications requiring regulatory compliance in food-contact polymers. It meets global general safety expectations for indirect food contact when used within recommended dosage limits and processed under standard industrial conditions.
Q3: How does Ferro 10364 perform under high-temperature processing?
A: This pigment exhibits excellent thermal stability and retains its color integrity during typical polymer processing operations—including injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding—at temperatures up to 300 °C. Minimal color shift or decomposition is observed under standard residence times.
Q4: What types of polymers is Ferro 10364 most commonly used with?
A: Ferro 10364 demonstrates broad compatibility with engineering thermoplastics such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and polycarbonate (PC). It is also widely employed in masterbatch formulations for both rigid and flexible packaging applications.
Q5: What is the typical dosage range for optimal color development?
A: Dosage depends on the base polymer, desired opacity, and final application requirements. It is typically used at low concentrations—generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight—and often achieves strong chromatic performance even at the lower end of this range.
