Description
Summary:Cincinnati-based inorganic pigment manufacturer Shepherd Color has developed a new infrared (IR)-reflective, jet black colorant for use in plastics and coatings. Introduced as part of the company's well-established Arctic® range of IR-reflecting pigments, Black 10P925 is a chromium iron oxide product (C.I. Pigment Brown 29). It has been designed to have an optimal balance of properties to facilitate the recycling of plastic packaging materials via near-IR sorting systems but is also suitable for use in building products such as roofing and siding where high solar reflectance and low heat build-up are required, among other applications.
