They are used in a wide variety of applications including automotive, decorative and industrial coatings.
Orion Engineered Carbons offers a broad range of products
for use in a variety of applications including, automotive, architectural and industrial coatings.
Orion Engineered Carbons has many new products including the new XPB 255, XPB 430, NEROX 505 and NEROX 605,
XPB 545 and PRINTEX Nature.
XPB 255 is an after-treated carbon black pigment that offers
tailored and well-balanced properties ideal for high-jet automotive coatings, and is well suited to both solventborne and water-borne polyurethane (PU) coating systems. It is also useful for
alkyd/melamine stoving enamels.
Experimental Black XPB 430 was developed to deliver the
high jetness and bluish undertones needed for durable, high-quality automotive base coats. Rapid and thorough dispersion
is essential to improve productivity and achieve waterborne
coatings of highly consistent quality. XPB 430 can be dispersed directly in water and develops the final colorimetric
properties within minutes without further milling or further
wetting additives. The recommended paste formulation for
XPB 430 contains no wetting agents – only water and a defoamer (at 0.5%).
NEROX 505 and NEROX 605 pigments are suitable for both
solvent and waterborne coating systems, and offer numerous
advantages including stable dispersion, high jetness and high
bluish undertone.
A new, conductive Carbon Black XPB 545 is now available
from Orion Engineered Carbons that is ideal for antistatic coat-
ing formulations.
PRINTEX Nature, a new carbon black pigment made from
renewable feedstocks such as plant oils, is now available from
Orion Engineered Carbons to meet the growing demand for more
sustainable products, in printing inks, polymers, and coatings.
