BASF, a leading manufacturer of phthalocyanine pigments, has extended its product line with two new pigments for packaging inks.

In order to comply with the stringent requirements regarding colour, rheology, gloss and transparency in solvent packaging inks, customized pigments need to be developed. Heliogen® Green K 8725 (P.G.7) is particularly suited for nitrocellulose-based systems. Heliogen® Blue D 7107 (P.B.15:4) displays excellent performance in solvent packaging inks.
