Nubiola Nubirox 106 Pigment – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical nature of Nubirox 106?

A: Nubirox 106 is an inorganic iron oxide-based pigment, engineered for high thermal and light stability, with a composition centered on alpha-Fe₂O₃ and carefully controlled surface characteristics to support dispersion and compatibility in demanding polymer systems.


Q2: Is Nubirox 106 suitable for food-contact plastics?

A: Yes — Nubirox 106 is manufactured under strict quality control and complies with global regulatory expectations for pigments used in food-contact applications, including FDA 21 CFR §178.3297 and EU Directive 2002/72/EC (as amended), subject to final formulation validation and migration testing by the compounder.


Q3: How does Nubirox 106 perform in high-temperature processing such as injection molding or extrusion?

A: It exhibits excellent thermal stability up to 350°C, maintaining consistent color and minimal degradation during standard polyolefin, polyester, and engineering plastic processing — making it well-suited for high-shear and high-temperature operations.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range for optimal coloration in polypropylene?

A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and desired shade intensity, but it is typically used at low concentrations — generally ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight in polypropylene compounds — with good dispersion achievable using standard compounding equipment.
