Bayferrox® 140 M

Bayferrox® 140 M by Lanxess is a high-performance, micronized iron oxide pigment. It shows resistance towards color change during high energy dispersion processes and possesses excellent dispersibility. As a result of the manufacturing process (Laux-process), which includes a high temperature calcining step, the pigment has a higher intrinsic hardness than other precipitated pigments. The high temperatures involved in the calcining process also give the pigment outstanding heat stability. Bayferrox® 140 M finds application in flooring, rubber polymer and plastic industry in the field of wood plastic composites. It has a shelf life of 10 years.
