Iron Oxide Pigment (Dye)

Formula: Тип: Сухой порошковый краситель

Iron oxide pigment is a high-quality synthetic micro-powder with high tinting strength designed for coloring concrete and construction mixtures. The product is specially developed for the integral coloring of concrete, cement-sand mortars, paving tiles, and small architectural forms. Due to its fine-dispersed structure, the pigment is evenly distributed throughout the mixture and provides a vibrant, durable color that does not fade under sunlight (UV) or aggressive weather conditions.

Applications

Powder Detergent Production: Used to color the bulk detergent base or to create contrasting colored speckles (enzymes/active additives). It does not bleed or migrate during extended storage.
Liquid Detergents: Incorporated into formulations for laundry gels, liquid soaps, dishwashing liquids, and car shampoos. It provides stable coloration without settling out as sediment when properly dispersed.
Industrial Cleaning & Auto Care: Added to heavy-duty alkaline or acidic cleaners, professional car washes (including colored active foam systems), and industrial equipment degreasers where organic dyes would typically degrade.
Bar Soaps & Cleaning Pastes: Acts as a reliable base colorant in the manufacturing of solid bar soaps (including laundry/utility soaps) and abrasive cleaning pastes, guaranteeing a uniform tone throughout the entire volume.

Key Advantages

Resistance to Aggressive Environments: Maintains its original hue across a broad pH spectrum. The pigment does not break down or fade under the influence of strong alkalis, surfactants (surfactants), or mild acids used in cleaning formulations.
Zero Color Migration: Unlike many water-soluble organic dyes, iron oxide pigments do not "bleed" or migrate into adjacent layers or fabric fibers, ensuring that cleaned surfaces or textiles are never stained during washing.
Superior Light & Thermal Stability: Features absolute resistance to UV radiation (finished goods stored in transparent plastic packaging will not fade under sunlight) and easily withstands thermal processing during powder granulation.
Eco-Friendly & Safe: Chemically inert, non-toxic, and environmentally safe. It does not cause skin irritation in finished retail products and is completely safe for wastewater systems when standard formulation limits are observed.

Storage & Transportation

  • Store in original factory packaging in dry, closed, and well-ventilated warehouses.
  • Must be protected from moisture, direct sunlight, and contact with aggressive chemicals.
  • Can be transported by all types of covered vehicles, provided that the packaging is protected from mechanical damage and moisture.
