In-Depth Analysis of the Impact of Colorant Particle Size Distribution on Coating Performance: The Complete Chain from Tinting Strength to Gloss

Color Matching Techniques – Application of RGB and CMYK Thinking in Colorant Matching

“How much colorant should I add for this color?” is a question the color-matching station faces every day. Add too little and the color falls short; add too much and you waste cost, and may also affect the coating’s adhesion, scrub resistance, and gloss due to excessive pigment volume concentration. In actual production, there are […]

How to Use Colorants Correctly – A Complete Process Guide from Opening the Bucket to Application

2K PU Polyurethane Coating Colorants – The Dual Challenge of High Gloss and Weather Resistance

Two-component (2K) coatings rely on the reaction between a base and a curing agent to form a film, offering high performance but being “delicate.” If the colorant is incompatible with the curing agent, it can cause gelation, floating color, or even failure to cure. This article focuses on the most critical issue for 2K coloring—compatibility—to […]

 Container Coating Colorants – How to Choose? Hard Requirements for High Weather Resistance and Marine Environments

 Colorant Selection and Color Realization for Artistic/Texture Coatings Artistic and texture coatings sell on the unique expression of “color + texture,” demanding more from colorants than ordinary flat coatings: precise, reproducible color, and the ability to withstand repeated shaping by trowel, roller, and spray without blooming. This article explains the key points of colorant selection […]

Containers are “globally mobile equipment,” enduring prolonged sun exposure, salt spray, temperature fluctuations, and mechanical impacts. This places extreme demands on the coating’s weather resistance and corrosion resistance. Choosing the wrong colorant leads to premature fading and blooming soon after a container sets sail, with exorbitant repair costs. This article clarifies the hard metrics and […]
