Features Hermcol® Red BK is a bluish red pigment and has excellent dispersibility. It exhibits excellent coloristical properties and dispersibility, as well as low viscosity at high pigment concentration in lithographic inks. The shade meets the requirements of process colour magenta. Hermcol® Red BK is the most blue among the azo lake pigments and it’s cost effective. Hermcol® Red BK is not suitable for use in concentrations below approximately 0.03% and only use in deep color. Hermcol® Red BK is heat stable up to about 220°C-240°C/5min in polyolefin and nose dive when concentration below 0.1%. Application Hermcol® Red BK is a calcium salt of monoazo lake red pigment, with high luster, low viscosity, having good performance in solvent based inks. Its main use is PA inks and NC inks, suggested for water based inks and Toluene-base Inks. It is also recommended for plastics, PP, PE, PVC, PS, PC, PET, ABS, polyurethane, fiber, rubber, powder coatings, also suitable for industrial paints. Package 25kgs or 20kgs per paper bag/drum/carton. *Customized packaging available on request.
