Product Description
Copper Phthalocyanine CPC is the second most common type of colourant, with copper phthalocyanine being the most often used. This chemical is shown to be great organic pigments due to their incredible chemical resistance, good heat and light fastness, and brightness and cleanliness of shade. Apart from this, Copper Phthalocyanine CPC is distinguished by its vivid color, great tinctorial strength, low cost, and excellent fastness. This is traditionally used as blue and green pigments in automobile paints and printing inks, as well as blue/cyan dyes for textiles and paper.

Exceptional Stability and Vibrant ColorCopper Phthalocyanine is prized for its remarkable heat and light stability, holding its color integrity even when exposed to temperatures up to 300C and intense light. Its deep blue hue and high tinting strength make it ideal for demanding industrial applications, ensuring your finished products remain visually striking over time.
Versatile ApplicationsEngineered for use across a range of industries, Copper Phthalocyanine is suitable for paints, inks, plastics, rubber, and textiles. Its excellent dispersibility and compatibility with different materials enable manufacturers to achieve precise and consistent coloration, whether for bulk production or custom formulations.
FAQs of Copper Phthalocyanine CPC:
Q: How is Copper Phthalocyanine (CPC) used in industrial applications?
A: Copper Phthalocyanine is used as a pigment by mixing it directly into paint, ink, plastic, or rubber formulations. Its fine powder form ensures easy dispersion and high tinting strength, resulting in rich, lasting color in industrial products.
Q: What are the benefits of choosing CPC as a pigment?
A: CPC offers excellent heat stability (up to 300C), superior light fastness, and high color purity. These attributes ensure colored products do not fade easily and retain vibrancy and durability even under harsh conditions.
Q: When is the best time to use Copper Phthalocyanine in the manufacturing process?
A: CPC should be integrated at the pigment mixing or compounding stage, ensuring thorough dispersion for optimal color density and even distribution throughout the material.
Q: Where can Copper Phthalocyanine be sourced?
A: Copper Phthalocyanine is manufactured and exported from India, and is available through reputable exporters, manufacturers, or suppliers. It is typically supplied in 25 kg HDPE bags for safe storage and handling.
Q: What is the recommended storage process for CPC pigment?
A: Store Copper Phthalocyanine in its original HDPE bags in a dry, cool, and well-ventilated area. Under standard conditions, it remains stable with a shelf life of up to 2 years.
Q: How does CPCs insolubility in water benefit its applications?
A: CPCs insolubility in water prevents it from leaching or washing out, making it ideal for products exposed to moisture or environmental conditions, such as outdoor coatings and industrial materials.
