The Wide Application of Iron Oxide Pigments
Iron Oxide Pigment is a kind of inorganic color pigment with a wide range of uses, mainly including iron oxide red, iron yellow, iron black and iron brown. Due to its unique physical and chemical properties, such as excellent dispersion, light resistance, weather resistance, non-toxic, non-permeable color, low cost, iron oxide pigments have been widely used in many industries.
The following are the main application areas of iron oxide pigments:
1. Construction industry: iron oxide pigments are widely used in the field of construction, such as the coloring of cement, brick, decorative materials, etc. Due to its good weather resistance and stability, the color of the building material can be guaranteed to last long and not fade.
2. Paint, paint: iron oxide pigments play an important role in the paint and paint industry, used for various types of paint coloring, including anti-rust paint, architectural paint, decorative paint and so on. In particular, iron oxide red has physical anti-rust function in anti-rust coatings.
3. Plastic: In plastic products, iron oxide pigments are used for coloring, so that the product has a better appearance and texture. At the same time, iron oxide pigments can improve the weather resistance and UV resistance of plastics.
4. Ceramics: iron oxide pigments are used in the ceramic industry for the coloring of glazes and billets, so that ceramic products show rich colors.
5. Ink: In ink manufacturing, iron oxide pigments are used to provide basic colors such as black and red, and have good printing performance.
Here are a few other application areas:
6. Metallurgical industry: iron oxide pigment is an important mineral raw material for iron making, which is used in metallurgical industry.
7. Electronic communications: In the electronic communications industry, iron oxide pigments are used to manufacture magnetic steel and alkaline dry battery cathode plates.
8. Medicine, rubber: iron oxide pigments also have certain applications in the medicine and rubber industry, such as the production of certain drugs and rubber products coloring.
9. Paper making: In the paper industry, iron oxide pigments are used for the coloring of pulp and the production of various colored papers.
10. Magnetic materials: magnetic iron oxide pigments are used to manufacture magnetic recording materials, such as tape.
In short, iron oxide pigments play an important role in many industries because of their excellent properties and wide range of uses.
