Holbein's luminous colors offer brilliance and high chroma not found in conventional pigments. Because they contain fluorescent dyes and pigments that are fugitive, this brilliance will fade and the colors will shift with exposure to ultraviolet light. The luminous color series are best suited for works that are temporary, or that are meant to be photographed and used in a digital format.
Pigment Information
This color contains the following pigments:
BR1-Rhodamine 6G
BV11-Fluorescent Blue-Violet BV11
Pigment Name
BR1-Rhodamine 6G

C28H31N2O3Cl
Properties
Rhodamine 6G is a staining reddish-yellow pigment that has fluorescent properties. It is extremely soluble in both water and alcohol. Fluorescent molecules absorb light at one wavelength and emit light at a longer wavelength.
Permanence
Rhodamine 6G, like all fluorescent dyes, is not considered permanent, however it is reported to have high stability for a fluorone dye.
Toxicity
Rhodamine 6G is toxic, however it can be biologically inactive and hence non-toxic in a lake pigment form.
History
Rhodamine dyes are often used for microscopy in the biological sciences. Rhodamine 6G is often used as a laser dye.
