Synthetic Organic Pigments and Dyes
Organic pigments can be natural, as derived from plants, or manufactured, as made from complex hydrocarbons. Examples of ancient organic pigments are indigo and madder lake, while modern manufactured organic pigments, having been originally derived from coal-tar based dyes, now include almost any shade imaginable. These pigments are usually light in weight (high volume), of varying light fastness, often require a wetting agent and produce semiopaque and transparent colors.
The early manufactured organic pigments often show poor permanence, however new formulations and patents have improved. KREMER PIGMENTE selects the highest quality pigments on the market.
