    • Colorant for industrial coatings including architectural and protective coatings
    • Pigmentation of plastics such as PVC, PE, PP, and engineering resins
    • Printing inks for packaging, publication, and specialty printing systems
    • Coloration of rubber and other polymer-based materials

    Packaging

    Phthalocyanine Blue is supplied either as dry powder or as presscake, depending on downstream processing requirements. Powder products are typically packed in multi-layer paper bags or fiber drums with inner liners to protect against moisture and contamination. Presscake forms are packed in lined containers or drums suitable for wet pigment handling. Packaging is arranged to maintain product stability and ease of transport.

    Storage

    Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated environment. Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent moisture uptake and contamination. Avoid excessive heat and direct sunlight during storage and transportation to maintain consistent pigment performance.
