Orion Engineered Carbons LAMP BLACK 101

LAMP BLACK 101 is used as a tinting carbon black with high stability to pigment separation for coatings, for plastics, for covering layers to metal casting, for accumalators, graphite parts as well as a reactivity component (hard metals,ceramics). Amorphous carbon. Used for powder coatings. Offers high stability to pigment separation. Used as inorganic color pigment for black coloring and tinting in plastics. Possesses good dispersibility due to its high structure.
