BRIEF INTRODUCTION |
|
Colourtech Polyurethane (PU) Pigments are high quality dispersions of organic and inorganic pigments for use in the manufacture of PU products such as flexible slab-stock foam, semi flexible foams of various densities, Integral Skin, Rigid Foams and shoe soles.
Colourtech Polyurethane (PU) Pigments are are specialised formulations and are available in both Polyether as well as Polyester Polyols of various molecular weights and colours such as Yellow, Blue, Green, Orange, Red, White, Violet and Black. Customised colours are available subject to minimum order quantities. Based on the choice of the carrier, the customer can ensure that physical properties of the final product remains unchanged at any level of the pigment loading.
Our efficient Dealer network across the country enables our esteemed customers to have access to the product 'on demand' without the need to stock inventory. |

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS – POLYETHER BASED POLYOLS FOR FLEXIBLE FOAMS |
|
Colourtech PU Pigment pastes are dispersions of high quality pigments in polyether polyols of 3000 molecular weights - 56 OH. This ensure 100% compatibility & allows for seamless integration with the slab stock, leading to Homogeneous colouring. PU Pigments serve three main functions: the optical function of providing colour, opacity and uniform finish
Our pigments are manufactured to a tolerance of CIELAB D.E.1 against a master standard. This ensures batch to batch consistency for the end user, to obtain uniform colour of foam at specific densities. Customers have a wide choice of shades. Customised shade matching is also possible. Typically pigments are used in the range of 0.5- 6% loading based on the final colour requirement and density of foam manufactured. |

COLOURTECH ADVANTAGE |
|
Our specialised PU Pigments are produced by controlled and unique manufacturing processes resulting in outstanding properties which include: |
- High loading of dry pigment in Polyol vehicle resulting in excellent coverage, uniform colouring, opacity
- High Temperature resistance
- Good Light fastness
- Easy dispersion
- Batch to Batch consistency in shade - matched with spectrophotometer
- Stability and Long shelf life
- Superior chemical purity. Pigments paste is neutral to the catalysts and additives used in Foam manufacturing
- Physical and chemical property of final product remains unchanged due to identical vehicle used in the pigment paste as compared to the Polyol used for manufacture of the product
- Vast choice of colours
- Quick turnaround for manufacture of Custom based colours possible – Inhouse Foam testing laboratory can churn out pigments manufactured to any specification.
- Product value- significant cost benefit in terms of product loading
- All PU pigments are free from Heavy metal
