NEROX® 2500

1 of 22 products in this brand
NEROX® 2500 is a Low Color Furnace Black (LCF) type. It is a low structured, aftertreated carbon black. It is recommended for use in solvent-based inks and packaging inks. NEROX® 2500 has excellent flow properties combined with distinct bluish undertone and superior compatibility with PA- and NC- binders in packaging inks. Used for printing inks, masstone coloring in pure black coatings (e.g., in automotive basecoats), for tinting in gray coatings and paints (e.g., in decoration), and for light tinting in transparence coatings (e.g., for metallic effects and wood glazing). The use of oxidized pigment in solvent borne coatings and non or weak oxidized pigment in water borne coatings is recommended. It is also useful in powder and radiation curing coatings. Used in fiber / filaments, PE & PVC pipes and high-voltage cables.
