1.Product Description
Pigment Violet 23 (P.V. 23) is an innovative high-end quinacridone organic pigment, redefining premium industrial coloring with its rich, vivid reddish-violet hue—blending elegance and vibrancy, which perfectly caters to the global trend of high-end, unique color aesthetics. Unlike traditional violet pigments that suffer from dull color, poor light fastness, or limited compatibility, our P.V. 23 features a proprietary quinacridone core synthesis and molecular modification technology, delivering three client-centric advantages: a vibrant, uniform reddish-violet hue, ultra-high light fastness (Grade 8), and seamless compatibility with both solvent-based and water-based formulations—solving manufacturers’ pain points of dull violet tones, easy fading, and poor formulation adaptability.
Crafted with advanced low-temperature precision synthesis and multi-stage purification technology, Pigment Violet 23 boasts a uniform ultra-fine particle structure (specific surface area of 24 m²/g) that ensures excellent dispersion, eliminating agglomeration and sedimentation in various formulations, greatly reducing production waste and improving coloring efficiency. Its 100% compliance with REACH, RoHS, and EINECS 228-767-9 standards (non-toxic, heavy metal-free, no harmful additives) adds an extra layer of value, making it suitable for high-end consumer-facing products and eco-friendly industrial applications. What truly differentiates it is its superior durability—Grade 8 light fastness, which is 1-2 grades higher than traditional violet pigments, ensuring long-term color stability even under harsh outdoor conditions.
Engineered for long-term reliability, P.V. 23 boasts Grade 8 light fastness, with colored products retaining their vivid reddish-violet hue for more than 8 years under outdoor exposure, even when mixed with titanium dioxide for light color matching. It has excellent thermal stability (stable up to 240℃ for long-term processing), water resistance, oil resistance, and acid-alkali resistance (Grade 5), preventing color bleeding and fading in diverse industrial applications. With strong tinting strength and high color saturation, only 12-15% loading is needed to achieve standard color depth, significantly reducing raw material costs. It’s not just a violet pigment—it’s a premium, safety-compliant solution to elevate the aesthetics and durability of your high-end products, helping you gain a competitive edge in the market.

3.Product Application
Pigment Violet 23 is a high-end, versatile quinacridone organic pigment, tailored to meet the specific needs of premium industrial sectors with its vivid reddish-violet hue, ultra-high light fastness, and multi-system compatibility. Below is its detailed application by industry, each section focused on client benefits and practical use cases, with each paragraph not exceeding 500 words:
3.1 High-End Printing Inks
Pigment Violet 23 is the preferred choice for high-end solvent-based and water-based printing inks, including offset printing, gravure printing, flexographic printing, and digital printing. Its excellent dispersion capability ensures smooth ink flow, eliminating sedimentation and clumping even in high-speed printing (up to 800m/min), reducing production downtime and waste. With strong tinting strength and high color saturation, only 12-15% loading is needed to achieve standard color depth, significantly cutting ink formulation costs. The vivid reddish-violet hue delivers sharp, vibrant prints with excellent color clarity, making it ideal for luxury packaging, high-end magazines, brand labels, and artistic printing. Its Grade 8 lightfastness ensures prints retain their vibrancy for years, even under outdoor exposure or frequent handling, avoiding the need for reprinting due to fading.
3.2 Automotive Coatings
Ideal for high-grade automotive coatings, including base coats, top coats, and decorative coatings, Pigment Violet 23 offers excellent compatibility with various automotive resin systems (acrylic, polyurethane). Its uniform dispersion ensures even color distribution, creating a smooth, glossy finish without visible pigment particles. Its thermal stability up to 240℃ ensures consistent color during coating curing, while its acid-alkali resistance (Grade 5) prevents fading or discoloration from environmental pollutants, chemicals, and UV radiation. The vivid reddish-violet hue adds a premium, unique touch to automotive exteriors and interiors, combining aesthetics and long-term durability—perfect for luxury and high-performance vehicles, helping brands stand out in the competitive automotive market.
