Description

C-12 (Copper Phthalocyanine Derivative) is a high-performance, finely processed pigment derivative based on the copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) chromophore. This compound is engineered to deliver exceptional color strength, stability, and dispersion properties critical for demanding industrial applications. It is an essential raw material for manufacturers in the coatings, plastics, and specialty ink sectors seeking vibrant, durable, and consistent coloration.

Application

• High-Performance Industrial Coatings: Used in automotive, coil, and marine coatings for superior weatherability and chemical resistance.
• Plastics and Masterbatch Coloring: Imparts intense, stable coloration to engineering plastics, PVC, polyolefins, and synthetic fibers.
• Specialty Printing Inks: A key component in solvent-based, water-based, and UV-curable inks for packaging and security printing.
• Pigment Preparation and Modification: Serves as a precursor or additive for producing specific pigmentary forms with enhanced properties.
• Textile Dyeing and Printing: Employed in processes requiring high color fastness on synthetic fabrics.
• Functional Material Additive: Investigated for use in organic electronics and photovoltaics due to its conductive and light-absorbing properties.
