Inorganic Pigments Market

Pigments are the materials used to impart various colors to the products by using their ability of changing the color of reflected or transmitted light as the result of wavelength-selective absorption. Inorganic pigments are metallic oxides or synthetics. These Mineral-earth type pigments are very simple and naturally occurring colored substances used for imparting colors in wide range of applications. Inorganic pigments are obtained from mixed metal oxides and are produced by a high temperature calcinations process. These pigments are not affected by strong acids, base and oxidizing agents. Also, inorganic pigments are non-migratory, do not bleed and are non-warping. Most inorganic pigments can withstand various temperatures and bad climatic conditions; they are heat resistant, have resistance to other chemicals and are easy to disperse. There are a variety of inorganic pigments available and are classified primarily from the source they are derived from. Some of the inorganic pigments include Chrome, which is derived from lead, Cadmium, which are derived from cadmium compounds, and Iron that are derived from various iron oxides among others.

Inorganic pigments are solid materials that obtain their transparency owing to their extremely small size and shape. Inorganic color pigments are used in various industries, which include coil coatings, powder coatings, industrial coatings, architectural coatings among others. They are also used in the coloring of plastics, buildings, constructions etc... It finds its application even in the automotive segments as a colorant for engineering plastics. Owing to the quality of industrial products, which have been improving over the past few years, the demands on their appearance and durability are increasing as well. Due to their fastness properties and their tolerance to adverse conditions, they are the most preferred pigments used in constructions. Inorganic pigments are the most stable class of pigments that have been manufactured as of today.  The main setbacks of the inorganic pigment industry are coping with continuous globalization, markets that are mature in a few applications and regions and the excess production of commodity pigments. The adverse environmental effects inorganic pigments cause can be a restrain for its market.
