Product Description – PY17
HP YELLOW 1314 (PIGMENT YELLOW 17) is a bright greenish transparent yellow disazo pigment. It is extensively used in the plastics industry, although it blooms in plasticized PVC. It is recommended for rapid-processing PVC, polyolefins, polystyrene, and ABS with a processing temperature below 200°C. Additionally, it exhibits extremely good lightfastness in aromatic polyurethane foams and is also used for the coloration of rubber.
Recommended Application：
Coatings: solvent based paints, water based paints, powder coatings
Plastics: PE, PVC, Rubber/ TPV, SBC, TPO, TPU
Printing inks: offset inks, solvent based inks, water based inks

- Light fastness: Light fastness rating is assessed on 1 to 8 Blue Wool scale where 1 = ‘Poor’ and 8 = ‘Excellent’.
- Heat Stability : Heat stability values given indicate the maximum temperature at which the pigment can be stoved for 10 min. on the full shade and in reductions without undergoing any significant change in shade.
- Oil absorption: The oil absorption is determined on the basis of EN ISO 787-5 and given in g linseed oil per 100 gm. pigment.
- Solvent bleeding: The bleeding in solvents is tested using the powder grades and the visual rating given on 1 to 5 Grey scale
where 1 = ‘Heavy bleeding’ and 5 = ‘No bleeding”

Frequently Asked Questions — PIGMENT YELLOW 17
What is PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17) and what are its key chemical properties?
PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17, CAS 4531-49-1) is a bright greenish transparent disazo pigment with the chemical formula C34H30Cl2N6O6. It exhibits excellent heat stability up to 200°C, making it suitable for high-temperature plastics processing. The specific density and resistance to acid/alkali data are available for immediate download in the technical datasheet.
Can PIGMENT YELLOW 17 be used in packaging printing inks and solvent-based coating systems?
Yes. PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17) is recommended for offset, solvent-based, and water-based printing inks. In coatings, it performs well in solvent-based, water-based, and powder coating systems. The pigment’s greenish transparent shade is particularly valued in high-quality packaging and industrial finishes.
What is the maximum processing temperature for PIGMENT YELLOW 17 in polyolefin and ABS plastics?
PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17) is heat stable up to 200°C, which is the maximum processing temperature for rapid-processing PVC, polyolefins (PE/PP), polystyrene, and ABS. For plasticized PVC, blooming may occur; it is better suited for rigid or unplasticized PVC formulations. The heat stability data is confirmed by internal testing.
Is PIGMENT YELLOW 17 suitable for rubber, TPV, and TPU masterbatch applications?
Yes. PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17) is recommended for plastics masterbatch in PE, PVC, rubber/TPV, SBC, TPO, and TPU. Its disazo chemistry provides good thermal stability at processing temperatures below 200°C, ensuring color consistency in injection molded and extruded parts. Light fastness data for each polymer type is available for direct download.
How does the weather resistance of PIGMENT YELLOW 17 compare to other diarylide yellows in outdoor applications?
PIGMENT YELLOW 17 (C.I. PY17) offers moderate weather resistance, typical for disazo yellow pigments. While it is not primarily designed for extended outdoor exposure, its heat stability up to 200°C makes it a strong candidate for interior plastics and packaging. For high-durability outdoor coatings, consider our high-performance monoazo yellows. The specific weather resistance rating is provided for each application in the technical datasheet.
