Pigment Yellow 83

Flexoprint Yellow HR is a very red shade diarylide yellow pigment with good allround fastness properties. It exhibits high colour strength, high transparency, high gloss and very good dispersibility. Due to its shade and high transparency, it is especially suited for the production of gold shades on aluminium foil. Recommended only for water based flexographic printing inks.

Flexoprint pigments are surface-treated special pigments for aqueous gravure and flexographic printing inks. In these systems they offer the advantages of aqueous and dry preparations without having their disadvantages
