Iron Oxide yellow 311 (Pigment yellow 42) main content is the ferric oxide, iron oxide yellow chemical formula Fe2O3.H2O, is one of the iron oxide hydrate.
Iron Oxide Yellow 311 (Pigment Yellow 42) provides a warm, clean yellow with outstanding durability. It disperses readily in common binders, shows strong weathering performance and offers competitive tint strength for bright formulations.
For optimum dispersibility of Pigment Yellow 42: use high-shear dispersion, adjust solvent/resin ratio, and add a compatibilizing dispersant for hydrophobic polymer systems. Start with 0.5–3% pigment loadings and adjust for desired tint and opacity.
