How to Interpret These Specifications
- 耐光性(4–5 全色): Moderate. Suitable for indoor and short-term outdoor applications. For long-term exterior exposure, consider higher-performance alternatives such as PR48:2 or PR57:1.
- 耐热性(最高 160°C): Moderate. Slightly better heat stability than PR3/PR4/PR5, suitable for most standard plastic processing temperatures.
- Weather Fastness (2–3 full shade): Limited. Not recommended for long-term outdoor exposure without overcoat protection.
- Migration Resistance (PVC Grade 2–3): Fair. May exhibit some migration in soft PVC. Verify compatibility with your specific formulation.
- Acid/Alkali Resistance (both Grade 4): Good chemical resistance. Suitable for most standard formulation environments.
关键应用领域
1. Printing Inks (Primary Application)
- 偏移油墨: PR8 provides bright yellowish red coloration in sheet-fed and web offset ink systems for commercial and packaging printing.
- 水性油墨: Used in water-based flexographic and gravure ink formulations.
- Gravure Inks: Suitable for solvent-based gravure printing on various substrates.

2. Coatings
- Interior Coatings:适用于室内装饰和工业涂层,对耐光性要求不高的场合。
- General-Purpose Paints:用于非高要求场景中的经济型涂料配方。
3. Plastics & Rubber
- 聚氯乙烯: Suitable for rigid PVC applications where migration is less of a concern.
- PE & PP: Can be used in polyolefin coloring at processing temperatures below 160°C.
- 橡胶制品: Used as a colorant in rubber compounding for footwear, gaskets, and industrial rubber goods.
4. Other Applications
- 纺织品印花: Used in pigment printing pastes for textile applications.
- Leather Finishing: Used in leather coating formulations for coloration.
重要提示:
- 颜料红 8 是classic monoazo pigment valued for its yellowish red hue and good color strength at a competitive price point.
- 它是mainly recommended for printing inks, interior coatings, and general-purpose plastic/rubber coloring.
- The pigment has limited weather fastness and migration resistance — not recommended for long-term exterior exposure or soft PVC applications.
- PR8 has slightly better heat resistance (160°C) compared to PR3/PR4/PR5 (150°C), making it marginally more suitable for standard plastic processing.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is Pigment Red 8?
Pigment Red 8 (PR8), also known as Toluidine Red R, is a monoazo organic pigment with C.I. number 12125 and CAS number 6407-80-3. It belongs to the β-naphthol azo chemical class and features a yellowish red hue with moderate heat resistance (up to 160°C) and light fastness (Grade 4–5).
Pigment Red 8 与 Pigment Red 2 有何区别?
Both are monoazo yellowish red pigments with similar performance profiles:
| Property | PR8 | PR2 |
|---|---|---|
| CAS 编号 | 6407-80-3 | 6410-15-7 |
| 客户编号 | 12125 | 12310 |
| 耐热性 | 最高160°C | 最高160°C |
| 耐光性(全) | 4 级 – 5 | 4 级 – 5 |
| 主要用途 | 油墨、涂料、塑料 | Inks, interior coatings, rubber |
PR8 and PR2 have very similar performance profiles. PR8 is often preferred for plastic applications while PR2 is more commonly used in rubber and general-purpose inks.
Is Pigment Red 8 suitable for outdoor applications?
PR8 has limited weather fastness (Grade 2–3 full shade) and is best suited for interior or short-term outdoor applications. For long-term exterior exposure, consider higher-performance alternatives such as Pigment Red 48:2 or Pigment Red 57:1.
Is Pigment Red 8 suitable for high-temperature plastics?
PR8 has heat resistance up to 160°C, which is suitable for most standard plastic processing but not for high-temperature engineering plastics. For applications requiring heat resistance above 200°C, consider benzimidazolone or perylene reds.
