VC Pigment Chips — Low-Dust, Low-VOC Colorants for Safer Manufacturing
Product Overview
VC Pigment Chips use vinyl-based resins as binders, providing good adhesion, chemical resistance, and economic performance for PVC and industrial coating systems.
Key Applications
- PVC Coatings: Decorative PVC panels, pipes, and profiles
- Plastic Coloring: Colored PVC films, sheets, molded parts
- Industrial Protective Coatings: Maintenance paints, protective plastic layers
Performance Summary
- Advantages: Strong adhesion, good chemical resistance, and cost-effective binder system suitable for PVC and industrial protective coatings.
- Limitations: Moderate weather resistance and lower flexibility compared to PVB systems.
Usage Guidelines
- 1. Reserve 10-20% solvent or water so that it can be added to adjust the viscosity after the pigment chips are dissolved;
- 2. Mix the solvent first, then add the pigment chips while stirring;
- 3. Slowly adjust the mixer to 2000rpm/min. When most of the pigment chips are dissolved, stop the machine and scrape the pigment chips attached to the barrel wall, stirring plate and bottom of the barrel into the pigment chips, then start stirring until all the pigments are dissolved. Pigment chips are completely dissolved;
- 4. After the pigment chips are completely dissolved, make up for the evaporated solvent and add the 10-20% solvent or water left before, mix evenly to make a color paste;
- 5. It is recommended to quickly pass the color paste through the sand mill to achieve better results. It can also be used directly according to the usage requirements;
- 6. You can also use pigment chips directly added to the ink formula for direct use.
The manufacturing process is basically the same as above.
Storage and use of pigment chips
The storage temperature should be 5℃-30℃, avoid high temperature and direct sunlight, and should be used within 12 months if conditions permit
