Pigment Yellow 74
Similar to Clariant 2GX70
Pigment Yellow 74 one of the important monoazo pigments type. It is bright and greenish shade yellow (between CI Pigment Yellow 3 and Pigment Yellow 1). It also has high tinting strength , which is almost twice of other usual monoazo pigments). PY74 is applied in NC gravure ink,water-based ink,traffice paint and latex paint. If in the consideration of eco-friendly, it is top choice if customers want to use yellow pigments without chlorine atoms.
The commercial value of PY74 is very high. For the light fastness, it is 2-3 levels better than bisazo yellow pigments.So, it is often applied in applications needs high light fastness, such as packaging printing inks, and outdoor latex paint.
Product Details
Features
Pigment Yellow 74 is a bright yellow pigment with high business value. Opaque, Semi opaque and transparent types are available. It has the strongest coloring strength among all monoazo pigments. Its resistance in acid and alkali condition is good. The light fastness of PY 74 is much higher than azo pigmnents, so it is applied in fields that requires high light fastness, such as package ink or indoor out door decorative paint.
