Pigment Beta Blue 15

Pigment Beta Blue 15 is a synthetic organic pigment primarily composed of copper phthalocyanine, presenting as a finely milled blue powder with the chemical formula C37H34N2Na2O9S3. It is prevalently employed in industrial dyeing and coloring processes. Finstar supplies this pigment predominantly in powder form, typically with a standard concentration of 100% pigment content for straightforward incorporation into formulations. When ordering Pigment Beta Blue 15, buyers should consider storage conditions to maintain pigment integrity; it should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment, avoiding exposure to incompatible substances such as strong oxidizers. Typical dosage rates vary by application, for example, 1–5% pigment concentration is common in plastics to achieve consistent coloration. Finstar offers this pigment in various packaging options, including bags and drums, scalable based on order volume, enabling ease of handling and storage for industrial customers across the region.

In paint formulations, achieving strong, durable blue coloration resistant to fading and environmental degradation is essential. Pigment Beta Blue 15 provides excellent lightfastness and chemical stability, addressing challenges related to pigment breakdown and color loss over time. Additionally, in plastics manufacturing, consistent dispersion of the pigment significantly impacts product quality and appearance. Utilizing Pigment Beta Blue 15 ensures uniform color distribution and maintains mechanical properties, reducing production defects and waste.
