Introduction

Pigment Yellow 62 (CAS 12286-66-7) is Hansa yellow lake pigment, its shade is slightly reddish than pigment yellow 13; it has good plasticizer resistance and heat stability in plastic PVC, light resistance 7 (1/3SD), 1/25SD light fastness 5-6 , The color power is slightly lower. Mainly used in plastic HDPE, temperature resistance 250℃/5min, size deformation phenomenon, also suitable for coloring of polystyrene and polyurethane.

P.Y. 62 stands out for its balance of color quality, processing adaptability, and cost-effectiveness. Its calcium salt structure and naphthol backbone endow unique properties, making it a preferred yellow pigment for decorative and functional applications.

Application

Mainly for Plastics Industry

Thermoplastics: Used in PE, PP, PVC, PS, and ABS for products like:
- Packaging materials (bottles, containers, films) with vibrant yellow hues.
- Automotive parts (interior trims, dashboard components) requiring heat resistance (up to 180°C).
- Consumer goods (toys, kitchenware, electronics casings) due to non-toxicity and colorfastness.
Thermosets: Applied in polyester and epoxy resins for decorative laminates, electrical insulators, and appliance housings.
Fibers: Dyes synthetic fibers (polyester, nylon) for upholstery, carpets, and apparel via pigment masterbatches. More Details

Specialized Applications
- Ceramics and Glass:
  - Limited use in low-temperature ceramic glazes (e.g., decorative tiles) and colored glass for artisanal products.
- Rubber Products:
  - Colored rubber in tires (sidewalls), seals, and gaskets, with resistance to ozone and weathering.
- Agriculture:
  - Colored plastic films for greenhouses (yellow to attract insects) and agricultural nets.More Details

Advantages

1. Excellent Thermal Stability

Resists decomposition up to 180–200°C, making it suitable for high-temperature processing in thermoplastics (e.g., PE, PP, PVC) without color degradation.
Maintains hue and chroma during extrusion, injection molding, or thermoforming, ideal for plastic products requiring heat resistance.

2. Vibrant Color with High Tinting Strength

Exhibits a bright greenish-yellow hue with high color saturation, comparable to cadmium yellow but without toxicity.
Low dosage (0.1–1% by weight) achieves vivid colors, reducing pigment consumption and cost in formulations.

3. Good Light and Weather Fastness

Achieves ISO 6–7 light fastness on polyester substrates, suitable for moderate outdoor applications (e.g., signage, architectural coatings) with minimal fading over time.
Resistant to atmospheric pollutants, acids, and alkalis, enhancing durability in exposed environments.

4. Non-Toxic and Environmentally Friendly

Free of heavy metals (e.g., cadmium, lead), complying with strict regulations (EU REACH, US FDA for non-food contact), making it safe for consumer products, toys, and packaging.
Reduces health risks during manufacturing and use, unlike inorganic yellow pigments with heavy metal concerns.
