New pigments from BASF

30/06/03 - Sicocer F Red 2360 extends BASF's range of zirconium coral pigments to include a bluish pigment with coloristic properties that set new standards.
Sicocer F Red 2360 fulfils to a particularly high degree the demands of the tile industry for strongly coloured, heat-resistant, fine-grained pigments suitable for transparent glazes.
The very pure shade and exceptional colour strength open up new possibilities in colour design. Intensive shades can be obtained both in glazes and by the new rotary printing process. With its stability to temperatures of up to 1200°C and its low conductivity, Sicocer F Red 2360 is the ideal pigment for application in transparent glazes.
BASF, the world's leading chemical company, had sales of about 32 billion euro and over 89,000 employees worldwide in 2002.
The product range of Performance Chemicals for Coatings, Plastics and Specialties comprises pigments, preparations and dyes, binders, crosslinkers and additives.
