Coated Deep Chrome Yellow

Product overview

Coated Deep Chrome Yellow EP6400 is an inorganic lead chrome pigment with a deep yellow shade, bright gloss and high opacity. The surface treatment coating improves dispersibility, enhances weather stability and reduces the solubility and migration of lead ions, offering better durability and environmental safety compared with non-coated pigment.

With balanced pigment performance, EP6400 is suitable for high chroma applications requiring strong hiding power, long-term stability and reliable processing characteristics.

Key performance features

  • High opacity & bright deep yellow shade
    reduces pigment dosage;
    enhances visual effect of coatings & plastics

  • Surface-coated for improved durability
    stronger weather resistance
    lower lead ion solubility for safer use

  • Excellent heat stability up to 240°C
    suitable for high-temperature extrusion
    reduces risk of thermal discoloration

  • Grade-5 solvent resistance
    prevents bleeding and film damage

  • Moderate oil absorption enhances formulation flow
    good wetting & dispersion

Applications

Coated Deep Chrome Yellow mainly used for Industrial coatings,Coil coating,Building coating,Plastics and Rubbers,Printing inks,etc.

Safety & handling

Important: Lead chromate contains lead and hexavalent chromium species in some technical grades—hazardous if inhaled or ingested. Follow your local regulations and the product SDS before use.

  • Use appropriate PPE (respirator, gloves, eye protection).
  • Avoid creating respirable dust; use local exhaust ventilation.
  • Dispose of waste per local hazardous-waste rules.
  • Check regional restrictions (e.g., consumer goods, toy/paint regulations, Prop 65 notices or RoHS where applicable).

Not Recommended

  • Consumer products subject to lead restrictions
  • Applications in contact with food, drinking water, or children
  • Jurisdictions where lead chromate pigments are prohibited

Color Matching Support

  • Custom shade matching to Pantone/RAL targets
  • Side-by-side comparisons vs. legacy Chrome Yellow formulas
  • Application testing in your resin system
  • Technical recommendations for migration and lightfastness

Is Chrome Yellow still allowed in my country?

Many jurisdictions restrict or prohibit lead-containing pigments in consumer products. Always check current regulations (e.g., RoHS, REACH Annex XVII, and local rules) for your application before purchasing.

What is the typical heat stability of Chrome Yellow?

Typical heat resistance is up to around 180 °C, depending on grade and resin system. Verify in your process before scale-up.

How should I handle and store Chrome Yellow safely?

Minimize dust, use local exhaust ventilation and appropriate PPE, and store sealed in a cool, dry area. Consult the SDS for exposure limits and disposal guidance.

Do you provide technical support and color matching?

Yes. We assist with dispersion, let-down, color matching to RAL/Pantone, and application testing in your specific resin or polymer.
