Chrome Yellow Product Detail Page
Product Description
Chrome Yellow is an inorganic pigment composed of lead chromate (PbCrO₄). It is known for its bright yellow color, excellent opacity, and strong tinting strength. This pigment is widely used in coatings, plastics, printing inks, and road markings due to its high heat resistance, weather stability, and durability. Different grades of Chrome Yellow offer variations in color tone, from lemon yellow to deep orange, depending on the lead chromate content and processing methods.
Production Process
- Reaction Stage: Lead nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) is reacted with sodium chromate (Na₂CrO₄) in an acidic environment to form lead chromate precipitate.
- Filtration & Washing: The precipitate is filtered, washed, and treated to remove impurities.
- Modification: Depending on the grade, the pigment may be modified with sulfate or molybdate to enhance stability and adjust color tone.
- Drying & Milling: The final pigment is dried and ground into fine powder to ensure uniform particle size and dispersion.
- Quality Control: The pigment undergoes rigorous testing to meet industrial standards for color strength, particle size, and heavy metal content.
