DAYLIGHT FLUORESCENT PIGMENTS are solid solutions of one or more dyes in a transparent high-molecular weight synthetic resin and are offered as very brightly coloured free flowing powders.

FLUORESCENCE: conventional pigments produce colour by selectively reflecting part of the incedent light, absorbing the remainder which is converted to heat. Fluorescent pigments, however convert part of this absorbed energy into light of their own colour; thus re-emitting more light than actually falls on them causing a glow called fluorescence.

LIGHT FASTNESS of fluorescent pigments on indoor exposure is usually unlimited, while on outdoor exposure these tend to fade gradually.

HEAT RESISTANCE varies from one series to another as also from one application to another and for most plastics, is usually about 180° Celsius for short periods as with our FX & TX Series and about 210° Celsius as with our FXT & SV Series.

SOLVENT RESISTANCE must be checked for specific solvent/combinations for the recommended grade of pigments ( FXT & SV Series ). Care must be taken that the temperature while dispersion remains below 50° Celsius.

DISPERSABILITY of these pigments is exceptionally good and stirring or soft grinding in the suitable binder/media is enough.

TRANSPARENCY of these pigments being exceptional, it is recommended to use these on white ground with minimum blending with other shades/opacifiers.
