Pigment Red

颜料红 48:3(星红 48:3)

Pigment Red 48:3 (CAS 7023-63-6, C.I. 15865:3) is a Monoazo organic pigment delivering a bluish red shade. It offers good color strength, moderate lightfastness (5–6), and excellent dispersibility in aqueous and solvent-based systems. Widely used in water-based inks, textile printing pastes, coatings, and plastics where a clean bluish-red tone is required. Supplied as a free-flowing powder with consistent batch-to-batch color stability.

产品概览

Pigment Red 48:3 is a Monoazo-type organic pigment belonging to the Lithol Rubine family, recognized for its vivid bluish red hue and strong tinting power. The barium lake variant of the 2B-acid series, PR 48:3 delivers reliable performance across a broad spectrum of industrial applications. Its molecular structure — a naphthol-based azo chromophore complexed with barium — imparts excellent color strength and good transparency in both transparent and semi-opaque formulations.

Pigment Red 48:3 bluish red powder

Manufactured under strict quality control by Hangzhou Starwin Tech Co., Ltd., 星辉红 48:3 ensures uniform particle size distribution, low volatile content, and outstanding batch-to-batch consistency. The pigment is readily dispersible in water-based and solvent-based media, making it a versatile choice for ink, coating, textile, and plastic applications.

Pigment Red 48:3 technical testing

How to Interpret These Values

Lightfastness ratings follow the Blue Wool Scale (1 = poor, 8 = excellent). A rating of 5–6 indicates good resistance to fading under prolonged UV exposure, suitable for indoor and semi-outdoor applications. Heat resistance values represent short-term thermal stability during processing; continuous exposure above 180 °C may cause shade shift. Oil absorption affects formulation viscosity — higher values require more binder or dispersant.

关键应用领域

  • 水性墨水: Excellent dispersibility and color strength make PR 48:3 ideal for flexographic and gravure water-based inks on paper, board, and corrugated packaging.
  • Textile Printing: Widely used in pigment printing pastes for cotton, polyester, and blended fabrics, delivering bright bluish red shades with good wash-fastness.
  • Coatings: Suitable for decorative and industrial coatings where a transparent bluish red is needed; compatible with most alkyd, acrylic, and water-borne resin systems.
  • Plastics:适用于 PVC、PE、PP 和 PS 材料,加工温度最高可达 180 °C,着色均匀且变形极小。
  • Rubber & Leather: Applied in colored rubber goods and leather finishes for its strong tinting power and ease of dispersion.

重要提示

  • 除非已通过特定法规框架认证(如 FDA、欧盟 10/2011),否则不建议用于食品接触应用。
  • Alkaline conditions (pH > 10) may cause shade shift toward a more violet tone due to the acid lake structure.
  • Always conduct a compatibility test with your specific resin, solvent, or additive system before full-scale production.
  • Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to preserve color integrity.

Packaging & Storage

Standard packaging: 25 kg multi-wall paper bags with PE inner liner, or 500 kg / 1000 kg jumbo bags upon request. Store in original packaging in a dry, well-ventilated area between 5 °C and 35 °C. Properly stored, the product maintains its specifications for a minimum of 24 months from the date of manufacture.

FAQ

What is the difference between PR 48:1, 48:2, 48:3, and 48:4?

They share the same 2B-acid chromophore but differ in the metal salt used for lake formation: sodium (48:1), calcium (48:2), barium (48:3), and manganese (48:4). The metal salt affects shade, lightfastness, and solvent resistance. PR 48:3 (barium) offers a bluish red shade with moderate lightfastness, while PR 48:2 (calcium) is more yellowish-red with higher lightfastness.

Can PR 48:3 be used in solvent-based ink systems?

是的,PR 48:3 在水基和溶剂型体系中均分散性良好。不过,其水溶性略高于钙盐或锰盐,因此最适合用于水基配方,以充分发挥其优异的分散性能。

What is the recommended dosage in textile printing?

Typical dosage ranges from 1–5 % on print paste weight depending on desired shade depth. For medium-depth shades, 2–3 % is common. Always perform a lab draw-down to confirm shade match before bulk production.
