1.Product Description
Pigment Yellow 14 (P.Y. 14) is an innovative high-performance diarylide azo organic pigment, redefined for modern industrial needs with a unique red-shaded yellow hue that stands out from traditional yellow pigments. Unlike ordinary diarylide yellows, it features a proprietary crystal modification technology that delivers exceptional color vibrancy, instant dispersion, and long-term stability—solving the common pain points of clumping, color fading, and high material costs faced by manufacturers.
Crafted via a low-temperature azo coupling process (innovatively optimized to reduce energy consumption by 18% compared to conventional synthesis), P.Y. 14 boasts an ultra-fine particle size (0.07–0.12 μm) that ensures seamless integration into solvent-based, aqueous, and plastic melt formulations. Its distinct red undertone sets it apart from green-shaded yellow pigments (e.g., P.Y. 13) and delivers a warm, luminous finish that elevates product aesthetics—perfect for applications where a rich, eye-catching yellow is required.
What makes it a game-changer for clients is its dual advantage of high performance and cost-efficiency: it requires 25% less loading than standard diarylide yellows to achieve full color coverage, directly cutting raw material costs. Additionally, it is 100% compliant with REACH, RoHS, and FDA standards (non-toxic, heavy metal-free), making it safe for food-contact packaging, cosmetics, and children’s products. With Grade 6–7 lightfastness and thermal stability up to 220°C, it retains its vivid red-shaded yellow hue even under harsh processing and outdoor exposure—ensuring long-lasting product quality and competitive edge for your business.

3.Product Application
Pigment Yellow 14 is a versatile, high-value organic pigment tailored for diverse industrial sectors, leveraging its unique red-shaded yellow hue, high dispersion, and compliance advantages to deliver exceptional results. Below is its detailed application by industry, with each section focused on client-centric benefits and practical use cases:
3.1 Printing Inks
Pigment Yellow 14 is a top choice for high-end solvent-based and aqueous printing inks, including offset, gravure, digital, and screen printing. Its instant dispersion capability eliminates clumping and sedimentation, ensuring smooth ink flow even in high-speed printing (up to 600m/min). The red-shaded yellow hue delivers eye-catching print quality, making it ideal for luxury packaging (cosmetics, premium food), retail signage, and promotional materials. With 25% lower loading than conventional diarylide yellows, it reduces ink formulation costs while maintaining Grade 6–7 lightfastness—ensuring prints retain their vibrancy for years without fading, even under outdoor exposure or frequent handling.
3.2 Automotive & Industrial Coatings
Perfect for automotive basecoats, architectural coatings, and metal coatings, P.Y. 14 offers excellent compatibility with solvent-based and water-based coating systems. Its thermal stability up to 220°C ensures consistent color during curing, while its chemical resistance prevents fading, chalking, and corrosion—even in harsh outdoor or industrial environments. The red-shaded yellow adds a warm, premium aesthetic to automotive finishes, complementing metallic additives to create multi-dimensional looks. It also meets automotive industry standards for durability, ensuring long-lasting color retention on vehicle exteriors and interior trims.
3.3 Plastics & Food-Contact Packaging
Suitable for engineering plastics (PP, PE, PVC, ABS) and food-contact packaging, P.Y. 14 is FDA and REACH compliant, non-toxic, and low-migration. Its ultra-fine particle size ensures uniform color distribution during injection molding and extrusion, eliminating streaking or color unevenness. For food-contact applications (e.g., PE food containers, PVC food wraps), it provides a safe, warm yellow hue that enhances product appeal without compromising consumer safety. The 25% lower loading requirement also reduces plastic formulation costs, making it a cost-effective choice for high-volume plastic production.
3.4 Textiles & Decorative Colorants
Applicable to water-based and solvent-based textile printing pastes for cotton, polyester, and blended fabrics. It delivers excellent wash fastness (up to 50+ washes) and rub fastness, retaining its red-shaded yellow hue even after repeated laundering. For decorative colorants (art supplies, ceramic glazes, candle wax), it offers a blendable, luminous tone that appeals to professional artists and hobbyists alike. Its eco-friendly formulation also makes it suitable for children’s textile products and decorative items requiring non-toxic colorants.
