Features / Description of Pigment Blue 15:4 (Pigment Beta Blue) NCNF CAS No. 147-14-8

Phthalocyanine Blue B NCNF is a bright green shade of blue possessing all the high resistance properties of the other PB 15 pigments. This version, like PB 15:2, has been treated to prevent flocculation of the pigment particles. It is used primarily in liquid inks, and is also useful as a process color cyan.

(Pigment Blue 15:4 CI No. 74160'.)

Pigment Beta Blue 15:4 also called as Pigment Blue 15:4 or Pigment Blue B NCNF, is a beta form of copper phthalocyanine which is manufactured by two step process of milling and pigmentation is to be taken.

Phthalocyanine Pigment Blue 15:4 (Pigment Beta Blue 15:4) find wide application in paints , Textiles , Rubber , Plastics , Artist Colours , Ink Industries etc. They Have excellent dispersion and rheological characteristics required for printing inks with good transparency , gloss and tone. These pigments are homogeneous belonging to Azo Phthalocyanine groups. The physical, chemical, colouristic as well as fastness properties of the pigments depend to a large extent on the type of binders used, presence of driers, hardeners,the substrate and film thickness etc.

Its fastness and heat stability makes it more applicable on plastics, rubbers and other polymers like fibers.
