Ａpplications

　　Trans-oxide pigments are mostly used in automotive paints and wood finishes. Meanwhile they are also widely used in the areas of construction paints, industrial coatings, plastic, nylon, rubber, printing ink, art coatings, cosmetics and powder coating.
　　The excellent weather fastness, UV absorption properties, high transparency and color strength make Trans-oxides to enrich the colors, increase color shades when combined with organic pigments and dyes and improve the condition of poor weather fastness when organic pigments and dyes are used alone without Trans-oxide pigments

Automotive Paints
　　Trans-oxide pigments give the stylist the ability to improve durability, transparency and UV absorption of the paint. So they are widely used in automotive paints and in conjunction with aluminum and pearlescence to produce metallic and golden yellow finishes. At the same time, significant cost benefits by allowing cost effective color stylings in combination with more expensive organic pigments can be achieved.
　　Transparent yellow iron oxide is used in combination with phthalocyanine pigments to achieve gold to green shades, while transparent red and brown iron oxides can be combined to blue shade reds and maroons.


Wood Finishes
　　The ultraviolet component of sunlight is principally responsible for the degradation of wood. Trans-oxide pigments are strong absorbers of UV radiation providing protection for the wood while their color and transparency enhance the appearance of the natural wood grain with a soft color. The high durability and weather fastness of Trans-oxide pigments make them the natural choice for wood stains and furniture finishes.
Plastic Application
　　There is a growing requirement for the use of Trans-oxide in plastic application. Owing to its properties of high transparency and color strength and strong absorption of UV, when we use them as the coloring matter of transparent plastic containers, they can also work as UV radiation absorber which can protect the goods in the containers from UV radiation.

Industrial Coatings
　　 Coatings containing Trans-oxide pigments can produce attractive gold and copper effects when applied over metal. Trans-oxide pigments are suitable for both exterior and interior coating systems. They also have a good potential application areas in air-dried coating and baking finish because of good color and thermal stability.
Printing Ink
　　Trans-oxide pigments are as bright as similar organic pigments and transparent dyestuffs, which are suitable for printing of aluminum tube. They may also be used in preparation of metallic printing inks.
Art Coatings
　　Art coatings using Trans-oxide pigments may keep the art colors for long period due to the high durability property of Trans-oxide pigments. So Trans-oxide pigments are also widely used in outdoor advertising board and art decorations.
Cosmetics
　　Because Trans-oxide pigments are non-toxic with low heavy metal contents and have a high UV ray absorption property, they are applicable in cosmetic industry.
Powder Coating
　　Trans-oxide pigment yellow, green, black and brown are able to keep colors unchanged in 5-20 minutes under 160-200℃, and the temperature for red is over 300℃,so they may be used in powder coating.
