PU pigments have many unique advantages that make them widely used in many industries. Here are some of the main advantages:
1. Excellent durability
PU pigments have very good wear and scratch resistance, which can effectively improve the service life of the coating and are suitable for products that need to maintain color and gloss for a long time. With good UV and antioxidant properties, they can resist the erosion of external environments such as sunlight, wind and rain, and maintain color stability.
2. Bright colors and stability
PU pigments provide bright and full colors, which can meet high-quality color requirements, and the colors are stable and will not fade or change easily after long-term use. They are highly adaptable to changes in temperature and humidity, and the colors can remain consistent in different environments.
3. Good adhesion
PU pigments have good adhesion to many substrates and can firmly adhere to the surface, reducing the risk of shedding and peeling. They are especially suitable for materials that require strong adhesion, such as automotive coatings, shoe materials, etc.
4. Environmentally friendly
Compared with some traditional pigments, PU pigments perform well in environmental protection. Many PU pigments are non-toxic and harmless, complying with global environmental regulations such as REACH and RoHS standards. It can reduce pollution to the environment and release fewer harmful substances during use.
5. Good processing performance
PU pigments show excellent fluidity and dispersibility during processing, are easy to mix with the substrate, and can be easily processed by spraying, coating and other processing operations. It has good processing adaptability and can meet the production requirements of different types of coatings and products.
6. High temperature resistance and chemical resistance
PU pigments can usually withstand higher temperatures and are suitable for use in thermal processing, such as drying or curing. It also has strong resistance to chemical corrosion and can resist the erosion of common chemicals.
7. Diverse application areas
PU pigments have a very wide range of applications, not only limited to coatings, leather, plastics, etc., but can also be used in multiple industries such as footwear, textiles, and automobiles to meet a variety of different needs.
Applicable to different color effects, such as metallic luster, matte, gloss, etc., to meet the diverse needs of designers.
8. Good flexibility and elasticity
PU pigments have good flexibility and elasticity, and are suitable for materials that require a certain degree of flexibility and stretching, such as leather, textiles, etc. Even when bent and stretched, the pigment layer is not easy to crack or peel off.
These advantages make PU pigments the first choice in many high-demand fields, especially in products that require long-term use and high performance.
