Iron oxide pigments are inorganic colorants primarily composed of iron oxides and hydroxides. These pigments occur naturally in various forms, such as hematite (Fe₂O₃, red - brown), magnetite (Fe₃O₄, black), and goethite (FeO(OH), yellow - brown). They can also be synthesized through chemical processes to achieve specific colors and properties.These pigments also possess good chemical stability. They are resistant to most acids, alkalis, and solvents, which allows them to be used in a wide range of environments.
Iron oxide pigments have a relatively high opacity. This means they can effectively cover the substrate, providing a strong and uniform color. In the plastics industry, when added to plastic products, they can hide the natural color of the plastic resin, giving the final product a rich and consistent hue.In terms of applications, iron oxide pigments are widely used in the paint and coating industry. They are used in architectural paints, automotive paints, and industrial coatings to provide color and protection. In the construction industry, they are added to concrete, bricks, and tiles to give them an aesthetically pleasing color. In cosmetics, iron oxide pigments are used in products like blush, eyeshadow, and lipstick.
