PR221-Condensed Azo Pigment
PR221-Condensed Azo Pigment
organic, condensed disazo
PR221 is a transparent bluish-red pigment with high tinting strength compared to other transparent bluish-red pigments. Although its hue is not a perfect match, it is one of several newer red pigments that is being used to replace traditional fugitive colors such as carmine and alizarin crimson.
PR221 has very good permanence and lightfastness, but is not as resistant to fading as the quinacridone pigments.
No acute toxic effects are known, but possible chronic effects have not been well studied.
Industrial processes for manufacturing condensed disazo pigments were developed by CIBA in the 20th century.
