Carbon black is the most common pigment used to create black printing inks. When compared to other colouring and tinting materials, carbon black has a higher efficiency as well as exceptional resistance to light, temperature, and numerous chemical compounds.
A smaller primary particle size and increased optical density of ink coatings result in a brownish undertone and higher viscosity printing ink.
A higher structural and viscosity influence resulting in better dispersibility and hold-out. Products for printing systems encompass the entire gamut of printing applications, including high-volume offset printing inks, flexo and gravure inks, as well as inkjet, toner, and other specialty ink uses.
The Global Carbon black pigments for printing inks market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
Orion Engineered Carbons will highlight its flagship Carbon Black pigments for coatings applications, including COLOUR BLACK FW 255 POWDER for automotive OEM and refinish systems, SPECIAL BLACK 40 POWDER for industrial applications, XPB 552 BEADS and POWDER for conductive coatings, and PRINTEX and NIPex grades for printing inks.
The first of Orion's new family of after-treated grades, COLOUR BLACK FW 255 Carbon Black pigment, sets new norms for high jetness, coloristic performance, and compatibility with both water-borne and solvent-borne systems.
Formulators can retain performance and coloristic features while transitioning to water-borne formulations thanks to dual compatibility.
PRINTEX 35 BEADS and POWDER provide excellent flow qualities, strong jetness, and a bluish undertone to solvent-based, heat-set, and sheetfed inks.
They are compatible with polyurethane resin (PU), polyvinyl butyral (PVB), and nitrocellulose (NC) binders in packaging inks.
Orion also offers NIPex IQ grades for good wettability and dispersibility in aqueous inkjet inks, extra NIPex grades for non-aqueous inkjet inks, and specific Carbon Black pigments that meet food packaging regulatory requirements.
SPECIAL BLACK 40 POWDER is the second grade boosted by Orion's unique aftertreatment techniques. It is a Specialty Carbon Black for medium- to high-jet coatings, with remarkable dispersibility and stability in industrial applications.
