Q1: What is the primary chemical composition of Yipin 4140?
A: Yipin 4140 is a mixed-metal oxide pigment based on iron and chromium, engineered to deliver stable brown-to-black hues with excellent thermal and lightfastness.
Q2: Is Yipin 4140 suitable for high-temperature polymer processing?
A: Yes — it exhibits strong thermal stability and is commonly used in engineering thermoplastics such as polyamide, polypropylene, and polyester processed at temperatures up to 300°C.
Q3: Can Yipin 4140 be used in food-contact plastics?
A: It is formulated to meet general requirements for non-migrating inorganic colorants in food-contact applications; however, final regulatory compliance depends on the full formulation, processing conditions, and applicable regional regulations.
Q4: How does Yipin 4140 perform in UV-exposed outdoor applications?
A: As an inorganic oxide pigment, it offers inherently high UV resistance and weatherability, making it well-suited for long-term outdoor use in coatings, construction materials, and exterior plastic profiles.
Q5: What is the typical dosage range for Yipin 4140 in polymer masterbatches?
A: Dosage is formulation-dependent, but it is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight — to achieve consistent, opaque coloration without compromising mechanical properties.
