NanoIron(III) Oxide (Fe2O3) for Functional Color Coatings

itself is a common inorganic pigment (iron red color), and its color properties become even more superior after nanoscale processing.

 

Mechanism of action:

High tinting and covering power: Nanoparticles possess a larger specific surface area and higher surface activity, resulting in significantly superior tinting and covering power compared to micron-sized pigments, requiring less usage for better performance.

Transparent Coloring: By controlling particle size and distribution, transparent iron oxide pigments can be produced, suitable for applications such as metal-flake paint and wood varnish. These pigments not only reveal the texture or metallic luster of the substrate but also impart rich colors.

Color stability: Inorganic pigments inherently possess excellent resistance to heat, light, and chemicals, ensuring long-lasting and unchanging color.

 

Typical Application Case:

High-end automotive metallic paint/mica paint: Utilizing transparent nano-iron oxide red, combined with aluminum powder or mica pearlescent powder, to create a multi-layered and deep color effect.

Outdoor High-Performance Color Steel Plate Coating: Long-lasting vibrant colors with strong weather resistance.

Artistic coatings and cultural heritage preservation coatings: Utilizing their stable colors and chemical inertness.
