Technical Details & Test Data

Testing Methods

Density

Determined by ČSN EN ISO 787-10: 1997 (67 0520) in v g/cm3

Bulking Volume 

Denotes the volume of 1 kg of loosely poured pigment, expressed in liters

Oil Absorbtion

Determined by ČSN EN ISO 787-5: 1997 (67 0520) in ml/100 g pigment

Fastness to Solvents

Coloring of solvent after 24 h at 20 °C according to ISO gray scale is determined; degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one

Fastness to Reagents

Coloring of reagents after 24 h at 20 °C according to ISO gray scale is determined; degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one

Light Fastness - Xenotest

Determined by ČSN EN ISO 105-B02: 2000 (80 0147) and evaluated in 1/3 and 1/1 of standard depth and in full shade; determined according to blue scale, by it degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 8 the highest one

Weathering Fastness - Xenotest

Determined by ČSN EN ISO 105-B04: 1998 (80 0171) and evaluated in 1/3 and 1/1 of standard depth and in full shade; determined according to gray scale, by it degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one

Overspray Fastness

Assessment of bleeding into a white nitrocellulose combination lacquer for 60 min. at 70 °C against ISO gray scale; by it degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one

Heat Resistance

The values quoted indicate up to what temperature the pigments do not significantly alter; these are guide values which can be influenced by the binder used and the period of exposure to high temperature

Migration Fastness

Assessment of bleeding into a white polyvinylchloride sheet for 24 h at 70 °C against ISO gray scale; by it degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one; no data means that the pigment is not recommended for dyeing of PVC

Fastness to plasticizers

Coloring of plasticizer (diethylhexylterephthalate) after 24 h at 20 °C acording to ISO gray scale is determined; degree 1 denotes the lowest fastness, degree 5 the highest one
