Pigment Orange 64 is with high tinting strength,High hiding powder,High saturation,Good dispersibility,Good properties,Comply with food contact

Pigment Orange 71 is with Better transparency,High saturation,P.O.71 shows better transparency than pigment orange 64

Pigment Orange 72 is with high tinting strength and high saturation,P.O.72 is more yellow and higher saturation compared with pigment orange 64

Pigment Orange 61 is with mid weather fastness,best light fastness also higher price among orange pigments. P.O. 61 exhibits good weather fastness while lower saturation than pigment orange 72

Pigment Orange 73 is with high tinting strength,high saturation,poor heat resistance/tinting strength in low concentration,it’s crystal will mix when used together with pigment red 254.P.O.7 shows better saturation and pure full shade,more redder when comparing with pigment orange 64

Pigment Orange 68 key features are most red shade,best heat resistance while low saturation,suited for nylon

Pigment Orange 43 is of high saturation,high price,excellent light fastness in low concentration

Pigment Orange 13 is of most economic choice,poor light fastness,poor immigration resistance,process temperature shall below 200℃

Pigment Orange 34 is an economic choice which processing temperature shall below 200℃

all these 9 plastic orange pigment technical position as below

Here we use pigment orange 64 as the standard orange pigment, there is still space in price down with industrialization and potential market share after that. 

Start from pigment orange 64, if user need higher weather fastness,pigment orange 71 and pigment orange 72 is optional,also pigment orange 61 which is of excellent weather fastness both in full and reduction.

Pigment orange 34 is extremely bright while limited market share due to high price 

Pigment orange 73 is beating by pigment orange 64 in market.

To save cost,there  are pigment orange 13 and pigment orange 34, pigment orange 34 has better properties than pigment orange 13 and redder. PO34 is of low saturation
