Chroma-chem® UCD® 8443PS

Chroma-chem® UCD® 8443PS by Vibrantz Technologies (formerly Chromaflo) is quinacridone violet pigment dispersion for silicone-based coatings. It is formulated for use in high-end industrial coatings including, but not limited to, industrial maintenance, marine, and protective coatings. It uses a dry pigment milled in a low-molecular-weight methoxy-functional silicone intermediate with closely controlled color strength and viscosity to permit reproducible color matches by volumetric machine dispensers or weight measurement in the plant. It is compatible with all baking and ambient temperature cured coatings. The use of Chroma-chem® UCD® 8443PS reduces the amount of color float. It exhibits light fastness as well as acid- and alkali resistance. The tint strength of this colorant is controlled by volume to ±2% to ensure optimal tinting performance in volumetric dispensing equipment. It is used in reactive formulations based on alkyds, epoxies, polyesters, and hydroxyl-functional acrylics and shows broad compatibility with most aromatic solvents, ketones, esters, chlorinated solvents, and glycol ethers. The shelf life is 3 years.
