Pigment Yellow 119 (Zinc Ferrite Yellow) is a reddish yellow which was produced after calcinated aboe 800℃. It has excellent heat resistance, light resistance, acid resistance and alkali resistance in common.
It can be use for Silicone heat-resistant coatings, color masterbatch, plastic, coil coatings, fluorocarbon coatings, ceramic coatings, high temperature resistant concrete block, etc.

Pigment Yellow 119 is an inorganic zinc-ferrite (spinellike) pigment commonly referenced as a zinc-iron oxide spinel. Commercial references list CAS entries for zinc-ferrite pigments — request the supplier's SDS/CAS confirmation for your lot.
PY119 generally shows superior heat resistance and better retention of shade after calcination or exposure to elevated processing temperatures compared with many standard iron-oxide yellows, making it preferable for silicone and other high-temp systems.
Use high-shear dispersion with ceramic or zirconia media; control mill energy to reach a target median particle size (commercial grades often ~1–2 µm). Select dispersants compatible with the end matrix (high-temperature resistant dispersants for silicone systems).
PY119 is an industrial inorganic pigment and is not automatically approved for food contact. Always request formal compliance documentation (FDA/EU food contact statements) and test migration for your specific formulation and substrate.
