Mayan Pigments bring color and life to anything you can imagine, including paints and coatings. They perform a fundamental function within a coating formulation and are introduced to control the degree of opacity and color of the finish. Primary applications include general industrial and decorative paints. With our products suitable for use in both solvent and water-borne finishes, they fulfill the requirement of "universality," which is becoming increasingly important within the paint industry. We are currently developing a line of liquid dispersions. Call us for details or let us know your needs. Mayan Pigments continue to grow in importance as the demand for environmentally compliant paint formulations increases. There is a growing trend for paint products, including water-based, high-solids, powder and radiation-cured coatings, to include no or low levels of solvents. Today's coatings must be designed to make little or no negative impact on the environment and, at the same time, continue to meet the highest performance standards required by each industry.
Here are some typical characteristics of the MayaCrom Pigment Line:
- Not heavy metal-based — the environmentally friendly manufacturing process generates no known hazardous wastes, nor does it use solvents. It represents the ideal "green process"
- Exhibits extender, rheological, and coloring properties
- Enhances mechanical properties due to needle-like particle shape of the pigment
- Exhibits good chemical resistance
- Exhibits light and heat stability
