Core Advantages

1. High-structure design delivers smooth surface without particle defects, uniform texture for plastic and coating finished goods.

2. Low grinding difficulty, fully dispersed with single-stage ordinary grinding equipment to reduce production line investment.

3. Mild neutral blue undertone without harsh yellow cast, ideal for mass grey color matching in industrial products.

4. Minimal interference on mechanical properties of plastic substrate, stable performance for injection & extrusion molded articles.

5. Low raw material cost, perfect for large-scale tinting of architectural color paste and general plastics to control production expense.

Main Application Fields

Core Applications: Plastic Masterbatch, Industrial Grey Color Paste
Compatible Applications: Regular Electrostatic Powder Coating, General Machinery Anti-Corrosion Paint, Silicone Sealant Tinting
Forbidden Scenarios: Used alone for high-gloss pure black topcoat, Food-contact products

Handling Precautions

1. Only for grey & light black tinting; not recommended for independent formulation of high-gloss pure black finish.

2. Store in sealed dry warehouse to avoid moisture agglomeration which weakens dispersion performance.

3. Standard dosage for coating & plastic: 1.5% ~ 4.0%, adjust proportion according to color depth demand.

4. Equip dust removal & anti-static devices during feeding to guarantee workshop production safety.
