P.R.53:1, which is used in large volume in aqueous flexographic printing inks,may present problems in terms of storage stability.

Pigment Red 53:1 For plastics P.R.53:1 is used for its excellent heat stability as a colorant for plastics. 1/3 SD samples in HDPE withstand exposure to about 260°C for 5 minutes. Under common processing conditions, up to 260°C, P.R.53:1 has practically no effect on the shrinkage of injection-molded polyolefins. Its lightfastness in PE is approximately between step 3 and step 1 on the Blue Scale, depending on the depth of shade and on the pigment concentration. P.R.53:1 is also very strong in PVC. It is not very lightfast, but a number of disposable articles are colored to advantage with P.R.53:1. However, it has a poor fastness to bleeding.

Pigment red 49:1 Pigment Red 49:1 and 49:2 Both the barium lake P.R.49:1 and the calcium lake P.R.49:2 resemble Lake Red C pigments (P.R.53:1) in terms of fastness to organic solvents, to alkali and acid, and to fastness in application. However, P.R.49 grades are much less heat stable, which narrows their applicability in plastics. Areas of application, especially in the USA, include elastomers, to a lesser extent also inexpensive industrial paints, air drying and nitro paints. Their main market, however, is in printing inks.

Pigment Red 48:4 P.R.48:4, the manganese salt, affords red shades, which are noticeably on the bluish side of P.R.48:3 and yellower than P.R.48:2. The pigment is used in a variety of applications, especially in paints. In order to produce opaque shades of red, P.R.48:4 is frequently combined with Molybdate Orange. The pigment is considerably more lightfast and durable than other P.R.48 types, especially in full shades.

Pigment Red 48:3 P.R.48:3, the strontium salt, is distinctly bluer than P.R.48:1, noticeably yellower than P.R.48:2, and slightly yellower than P.R.48:4. The main field of application for P.R.48:3 is in plastics. Incorporated in plasticized PVC, P.R.48:3 is the most bleed resistant of all metal salts, although it does show a certain tendency to migrate. P.R.48:3 is quite often more lightfast than other P.R.48 types.

Pigment red 48:2 for Packaging gravure Inks The two types are used in almost exactly the same areas of application. P.R.48:2 is also found in printing inks, especially for packaging inks based on NC. Resinated grades are more transparent and bronze less in print. The viscosity of aqueous printing inks often rapidly increases during storage, a problem which may lead to thickening.

Pigment red 48:2 for Plastics P.R.48:2 is also used in plastics, where it affords good tinctorial strength. Such colorations are heat stable up to 230°C for 5 minutes, but higher temperatures shift the color towards bluer, duller shades. At higher temperature, on the other hand, more reduced colorations (1/9 SD) shift the shade to yellower and cleaner hues. P.R.48:2 is used to an appreciable extent in LDPE, in which it is more lightfast than corresponding P.R.48:1 samples: the difference is about 2 1/2 steps on the Blue Scale. Incorporated in plasticized PVC, P.R.48:2 is not entirely 2.7.2 BONA Pigment Lakes 327 bleed resistant. The pigment may be used in PP spin dyeing only if polymers with a low melting point are used. In order to ensure sufficient light fastness, the pigment is used to advantage in deep shades, i.e., at high concentration.

Pigment Red 48:1 for Inks application The main field of application for P.R.48:1 is in printing inks and plastics. In order to enhance the transparency in print and to reduce the strong tendency of the prints to bronze, pigments that are targeted for use in printing inks are frequently supplied in resinated form. P.R.48:1 types show high tinctorial strength, but are less strong than P.R.53:1 grades. P.R.48:1 is considerably yellower than P.R.57:1 and noticeably bluer than P.R.53:1.

Pigment Red 3 Toluidine Red shows insufficient fastness towards solvents; in fact, it is partially inferior even to monoazo yellow pigments, which is also true for other members of this class. Its stability to alcohols, aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, and dibutyl phthalate equals step 3 on the 5 step scale; P.R.3 is even less fast to esters and ketones. P.R.3 is used primarily in air drying paints. Its hue varies considerably with the particle size, therefore pigment manufacturers usually offer a range of brands. The products with coarser particle sizes are bluer. Very bluish varieties, however, partially contain chemically modified P.R.3. Full shades of Toluidine Red are extremely lightfast and weatherfast, but deteriorate rapidly as the pigment is reduced with white pigment. P.R.3 application in printing inks is restricted; the pigments are being displaced by their stronger Naphthol AS pigment counterparts. P.R.3 is used primarily in flexo printing.

Pigment Red 48:1 for universal application P.R.48:1, the barium salt, is a coloristically versatile product. It affords light yellowish to medium red shades, depending on the specific surface area of the product. Fastness to a number of common organic solvents, such as esters, ketones, and aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, is good. However, P.R.48:1 shows only poor resistance to soap, alkali, and acid. The main field of application for P.R.48:1 is in printing inks and plastics. In order to enhance the transparency in print and to reduce the strong tendency of the prints to bronze, pigments that are targeted for use in printing inks are frequently supplied in resinated form. P.R.48:1 types show high tinctorial strength, but are less strong than P.R.53:1 grades. P.R.48:1 is considerably yellower than P.R.57:1 and noticeably bluer than P.R.53:1. Paint manufacturers frequently use P.R.48:1 in inexpensive industrial paints,

Pigment Red 22 P.R.22 affords yellowish shades of red. Its main market is in textile printing, but it is also used throughout the graphics field, such as in offset and gravure printing, especially in NC-based inks. P.R.22 is advantageous where soap and alkali resistance are required. A pigment with high tinctorial strength, it is somewhat lighter than P.R.9 in high pigment area concentrations; while at lower pigment area concentrations it is yellower. Compared to P.R.2, P.R.22 is distinctly yellower and less lightfast; this tendency is even more pronounced in comparison with P.R.112. The paint industry employs P.R.22 in air drying systems, in emulsion paints, and occasionally in industrial finishes; Again, P.R.22 is much less lightfast in these media than P.R.112. Areas of application include paper mass and surface coloration, colored pencils, artists colors, and other purposes.

Pigment Red 2 P.R.2 provides a medium red shade, which is somewhat yellower than the Naphthol AS pigment P.R.112. Its main area of application is the printing inks field. In some systems, P.R.2 is even slightly stronger than P.R.112, although it does not quite achieve the same lightfastness. P.R.2 is primarily used in offset and packaging gravure and flexo printing inks. The pigment also lends itself to textile printing.

Pigment Orange 34 transparency version Transparent P.O.34 versions represent the most frequent choice for printing inks. They provide a clean, yellowish orange hue and high tinctorial strength. P.O.34 is somewhat redder than the similarly strong P.O.13. At equal depth of shade, prints obtained from P.O.34 tolerate light better than do prints containing P.O.13; P.O.34 shows good solvent resistance to a number of organic solvents. Its prints are more stable in this respect than those made from P.O.13 Transparent P.O.34 is somewhat sensitive to heat and generally only withstands temperatures up to 100 to 140°C. Higher sterilization or metal deco printing temperatures may produce a color shift towards a redder orange. P.O.34 is used for all printing techniques. Packaging printing inks, especially nitrocellulose inks, often use the orange version of the cheaper and more lightfast P.O.5 in areas where fastness to organic solvents is unimportant.

Pigment Orange 34 opaque type Highly opaque versions of P.O.34 with coarse particle sizes and specific surface areas between ca. 15 and 25 m2/g, however, are gaining recognition within the paint field. Excellent flow properties make it possible to further increase the pigment level and the opacity, in which P.O.34 affords exceptionally good results for an organic pigment. Even at equal pigment concentration, P.O.34 is more opaque than commercially available Molybdate Red pigments which cover the same range of hues. Full shades of this very opaque type are very fast to light and weather, and they have a much better ability to tolerate solvents and migration. This makes P.O.34 attractive as a partial or complete replacement for Molybdate Red in industrial finishes, tractor and agricultural implement finishes, house paints, etc. Its temperature stability is similarly superior. This is also true for application in print, where P.O.34 exhibits an increase in thermal stability from less than 120°C in transparent prints to 200°C in specialized opaque varieties 

Pigment Orange 13, pyrazolone orange, permanent orange G  P.O.13 is pyrazolone orange, comes in semitransparent types with specific surface areas between about 35 and 50 m2/g. P.O.13 is extensively used in the rubber industry, It is coloristically very similar to P.O.34, but generally somewhat yellower. The pigment blooms over a large concentration range and bleeds considerably. At concentrations below ca.0.1%, neither P.O.34 nor 13 are suited for use in rigid PVC.. P.O.13 shows less stability in paints than P.O.34 types of similar particle size. The graphics industry uses P.O.13 to an appreciable extent for packaging printing inks.

Pigment orange 16 Structurally based on 3,3b-dimethoxybenzidine (o-dianisidine) as a diazo component, P.O.16 is also known as Dianisidine Orange.  Its color is a yellowish orange, which is considerably redder than P.O.13 and 34. Increasingly stringent application requirements regarding lightfastness and durability, solvent and migration resistance present a considerable challenge to P.Y.16 and have largely eliminated the pigment from the market. The largest area of application for P.Y.16 is in the printing ink industry. The pigment is used particularly to adjust the shades of P.Y.12 type diarylide yellow pigments, to which it is most closely related as far as application performance is concerned.

Pigment Orange 5,  HP ORANGE 3435 dinitraniline orange, permanent orange 2G, orange GG, PO5 P.O.5 is principally applied in air drying systems. The type with a coarser particle size provides good hiding power. P.O.5 is used only in full or similarly deep shades, partially in combination with inorganic pigments such as Molybdate Orange. The yellower, cleaner types with finer particle sizes are almost as lightfast as opaque varieties. P.O.5 is used to an appreciable extent in printing inks, especially for offset, flexo, and packaging gravure printing inks. P.O.5 is in high demand in the field of the textile printing.

P.Y.110 is fast to bleeding. Its high heat stability is used to advantage in polyolefins. P.Y.110 has considerable effect on the shrinkage of this partially crystalline polymer at processing temperatures between 220 and 280°C. The pigment is also very lightfast in polyolefins. The paint industry uses the relatively weak P.Y.110 frequently as a colorant for industrial finishes, especially for high grade finishes. The pigment is very lightfast and weatherfast, which also makes it a suitable product for automotive finishes, for instance original automotive finishes. High transparency is an asset in metallic shades

Pigment Yellow 83 opaque type, PY83 yellow HR70 P.Y.83 HR70 types is an extremely opaque form. It provides finishes with good flow properties and makes it easy to increase the pigment concentration, which in turn improves the hiding power. This special opaque type is considerably more weatherfast than its more transparent counterparts, which makes its full shades useful colorants for original automobile finishes (O.E.M.). The product also lends itself to paints for automobile refinishes and tractor and implement finishes. It is found in a variety of high grade industrial finishes. Good overall fastness and considerable tinctorial strength broaden the scope of P.Y.83 application. The list includes office articles, artists’ colors, and solvent based wood stains, in which the pigment is frequently combined with red pigments and carbon black to produce shades of brown.

Pigment Yellow 191 P.Y.191 displays excellent solvent fastness in aliphatic and in aromatic hydrocarbons, as well as in the commonly used plasticizers. The pigment is almost completely fast to alcohols and esters but not to water, ketones and methylglycol. P.Y.191 is also used for hot melting traffic paints in the USA. Four new crystal modifications of P.Y.191 have been described supplementing  the known alpha-phase. Phase conversions were achieved by solvation of the alpha-phase in high boiling organic solvents with subsequent cooling: the-phase by recrystallizing from NMP (180°C), DMAA or DMSO; the alpha-phase from diethyleneglycol dimethylether (150–170°C), the alpha-phase from ethyleneglycol (170–200°C) and the alpha-product from DMF.
