Copper Phthalocyanine Blue
Copper Phthalocyanine Blue Pigment, also known as Pigment Blue 15 (PB15), is a vibrant and widely recognized blue pigment known for its brilliant shade, excellent fastness properties, and exceptional stability. It belongs to the phthalocyanine family and is synthesized through the complex reaction of phthalic anhydride, urea, copper salt, and catalysts.
The pigment is available in multiple forms based on its crystalline structure and tone — including Alpha (PB 15:0 to PB 15:2) and Beta (PB 15:3 to PB 15:4) — offering a wide spectrum of bluish tones from red-shade blue to green-shade blue.
This pigment has become a staple in multiple industries due to its superior performance in terms of color retention, heat resistance, dispersibility, and environmental safety.
Copper Phthalocyanine Blue Pigment - Alpha Series (PB15:0, PB15:1, PB15:2)
The Alpha series (PB15:0 to PB15:2) of Copper Phthalocyanine Blue Pigments is characterized by reddish-blue tones. These pigments are known for excellent dispersion, high tinting strength, and brilliant color development, especially in water-based applications.
They are widely used in applications where cost-effectiveness, color vibrancy, and easy dispersibility are key requirements.
Copper Phthalocyanine Blue Pigment - Beta Series (PB15:3, PB15:4)
The Beta series (PB15:3 and PB15:4) offers greenish-blue shades and is renowned for its exceptional lightfastness, weather resistance, and solvent resistance. These pigments are crystal-modified to enhance their durability and are widely used in premium-grade industrial applications.
