Chemical Formula
C26H12N4O2
Properties
Perinone Orange is a strong, clean, reddish orange pigment classified as a vat pigment. It has an average drying time.
Permanence
Perinone Orange has excellent lightfastness and weatherfastness.
Toxicity
Perinone Orange is not considered toxic.
History
Perinone orange is often used in plastics and vinyls, automotive finishes, and printing inks. Its high cost limits its application to products for which superior lightfastness and weather resistance is essential.

Toxicity
Isoindoline Orange 61 is not considered toxic.
History
The first isoindoline pigments were patented in 1946, and commercial production of pigments in this group began in the 1960s. Because of its high heat stability and relatively good lightfastness, PO61 is used in plastics, automotive finishes, and for printing inks. PO61 is often compared with PO13, which has higher tinting strength, but is not as lightfast.
Alternate Names
Permanent Orange.
