Plastics

Cadmium Pigments areuniversally compatible with allpolymers and additives due totheir high thermal andchemical stability.

Their clean and bright colourshades together with ease ofdispersion, non-migration andnon-distortion propertiesmake cadmium pigments thecolourists ‘first choice’pigment for thermoplastic andthermoset polymers.

■ Polyolefins(LDPE, HDPE, PP)

■ Engineering Polymers(PA, PC, PTFE, PBT)

■ Styrenics(ABS, SAN, ASA, PS)

■ Silicone Rubber

The excellent temperaturestability ensures that polymerscontaining CadmiumPigments can be easilyre-processed and re-cycled.

Technical Benefits

High performance CadmiumPigments offer a uniquecombination of technicaladvantages, whichdifferentiate them from otherpigments whether inorganicor organic.

■ Excellent temperaturestability

■ Excellent chemicalresistance

■ Good dispersibility

■ High colour strength,opacity and covering power

■ Insoluble in solvents andwater

■ Good light andweatherfastness11

■ Non-migratory

■ Non-warping

■ Wide compatibility withorganic and inorganicpigments

■ Easily recycled

Rockwood Pigments is theworld’s leader in thetechnology and manufactureof high performanceCadmium Pigments.The Rockwood Pigmentscomprehensive range ofCadmium Pigments ismarketed through its globalsales and distributionnetwork, to service therequirements of the Plastics,Surface Coatings, Ceramics,Glass and Artist Colourindustries. Risk Assessment

In 1995 the European Unioncommissioned an independentrisk assessment on the lifecycleof cadmium pigments.

The thorough scientificassessment of the risks wascompleted in 1998 andconcluded that emissions fromthe cadmium pigment lifecycledo not pose any significant riskto man or to the environment.

Product RegulationsRockwood’s CadmiumPigments are extremelyinsoluble inorganic compounds,which are tightly controlled toensure that the level of solublecadmium conforms to thefollowing regulations:

■ Council of EuropeResolution AP(89)1 FoodContact Limits - 0.01%soluble cadmium

■ United States of AmericaTCLP Waste LeachingLimits - 1.0 ppm solublecadmium

■ Safety of Toys Directive88/378/EEC (EN71:Part 3relates to finished toycompliance) - 75 ppmsoluble cadmium

Artist Colours

Cadmium Pigments are theartists’ choice for high qualityfine art oil and water coloursdue to their excellent colourbrilliance and permanence,ease of dispersion, universalcompatibility and excellentquality consistency.

Ceramics and Glass

Cadmium Pigments offer a unique range of vivid andbright red, orange and yellowshades to ceramic, glass andvitreous enamels where veryhigh temperature stability isan essential requirement.

11Please note that the resistance to colour change on exterior exposure could be affected by; moisture penetration of the resin carrier;the presence of oxidising agents; the presence of other pigments, particularly titanium dioxide.

Chemical Composition

The pigmentary portion isbased on oxides of iron in theform of Hematite or Goethite.The remaining compositionconsists of varying levels ofManganese Oxides, Aluminaand Silica. The iron oxidecontent can be between 30and 75% depending on theindividual product.

Products

A range of standard andmicronised Umbers areavailable with themicronised types being thepreferred selection for thecoatings user. A Raw andBurnt Sienna complete therange.

Uses

As these materials are semi-transparent they find use inartist paints and woodstains.In the case of woodstainstheir UV absorbing proper-ties protect the wood fromdegradation by harmful UVrays.

Cautionary Note: These materials are natural products and some colour vari-ation is to be expected. Rockwood Pigments are able to offer blended productswith a greater degree of control but this has to be based on economic volumes.The presence of Manganese should be carefully taken into consideration whenformulating coatings with reactive binders.

Natural Earth or Umber andSienna pigments provide an interesting range of colours fromyellow through brown to red andgrey. The base materials are foundas naturally occurring deposits andare generally referred to as RawUmber or Raw Sienna. Upon calcination they undergo acolour change to produce deepershades known as Burnt Umber orBurnt Sienna. Being naturallyoccurring their colour can varydepending on the chemical composition, degree of calcinationas well as mining location.

■ Environmentally acceptablepigments, not classified as“Special Waste”.

The Trans-Oxide® Pigment

■ Careful control of themanufacturing process ofTrans-Oxide® pigmentsproduces needle shapedparticles approximately100nm (0.1 microns) inlength and 10nm (0.01microns) in width. Whenthese particles are fullydispersed, they do notscatter light and aretherefore completelytransparent. The very small particle sizeresults in high surface areasand oil absorption figures.

■ Due to the fine particlesize, high shear dispersionprocesses such as beadmilling are necessary toachieve completedispersions and henceexploit the full transparencyof Trans-Oxide® pigments.

Environmental

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments aresuitable as colourants forpolymers in contact withfood (Council & Europe AP (89)1; FDA21 CFR sec.178.3297).

■ These pigments are notclassified as hazardous underthe CHIP regulations 1994and attendant EU directives.

■ Environmentally acceptablepigments, not classified as“Special Waste”.

The Trans-Oxide Pigment

■ Careful control of themanufacturing process ofTrans-Oxide® pigmentsproduces needle shapedparticles approximately100nm (0.1 microns) inlength and 10nm (0.01microns) in width. Whenthese particles are fullydispersed, they do notscatter light and aretherefore completelytransparent. The very small particle sizeresults in high surface areasand oil absorption figures.

■ Due to the fine particlesize, high shear dispersionprocesses such as beadmilling are necessary toachieve completedispersions and henceexploit the full transparencyof Trans-Oxide® pigments.

Trans-Oxide® is a registered trademark of Rockwood Pigments

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments arestrong absorbers of UVradiation providing protectionfor the wood substrate whilsttheir colour and transparencyenhances the appearance ofthe natural wood grain.

■ The high durability andweatherfastness of Trans-Oxide® pigments makethem the natural choice fortimber coatings, woodstainsand furniture finishes.

Automotive Paints

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments arewidely used in conjunctionwith aluminium and micapigments to produce metallicand pearlescent finishes in both solvent and water basedresin systems.

■ Cost effective colour stylingsare obtained using Trans-Oxide® pigments incombination with moreexpensive organic pigments.

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments arerecommended for bothsolvent and water basedresin systems.

Wood Coatings

■ Unprotected wood undergoesdegradation via a complexprocess involving theinteraction of sunlight, waterand microbial attack.

■ The ultraviolet component ofsunlight (280 to 400nm) isprincipally responsible for thisdegradation through thedecomposition of the lignin inwood and resultantdestruction of the cellstructure.

Rockwood Pigments is aglobal leader in the technologyand manufacture of highperformance transparent iron oxide pigments. Supplying products to meet the requirements of the automotive, wood coatings, industrialcoatings, artists colour and cosmetics industries.

AUTOMOTIVE PAINTS

■ Proven weatherfastness anddurability, complementedby excellent UV absorptionproperties, ensure that theoverall performance ismaintained in both OEMand refinish systems.


WOOD COATINGS

Industrial Coatings

■ Coatings containingTrans-Oxide® pigmentsproduce attractive gold andcopper effects when appliedover metal and can be usedin both solvent and waterbased resin systems.

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments aresuitable for food contactapplications and aretherefore used for bothexterior and interior cancoating systems.

Artist Colours

■ Trans-Oxide® pigments areused increasingly assubstitutes for burntumber, raw and burntsienna pigments due totheir consistency, hightransparency and naturalearth colour tones.
