CAS: 40910-49-4
Elintaal, also known as C.I. Pigment Blue 76, CAS: 40910-49-4, is a synthetic organic pigment belonging to the phthalocyanine family. It is specifically a brominated copper phthalocyanine, characterized by its intense blue color, excellent lightfastness, weather resistance, high tinting strength, and chemical stability. Its structure involves a copper atom coordinated within a brominated phthalocyanine macrocycle, which contributes to its robust properties as a colorant.
Elintaal is primarily used as a high-performance blue pigment. Its applications span across various industries where a stable and vibrant blue color is required. It is commonly employed in the manufacturing of paints, coatings, plastics, and printing inks due to its durability and color properties.
Specific applications include automotive coatings, industrial paints, architectural coatings, and decorative paints. In the plastics industry, it is used for coloring various polymers, masterbatches, and synthetic fibers. It is also found in solvent-based, water-based, and UV-curable printing inks, as well as in textile printing and art supplies like artist's paints. Its stability makes it suitable for outdoor applications.
Generally considered to have low acute toxicity and is often classified as non-hazardous under normal conditions of use. Like many finely divided solid pigments, inhalation of dust may cause mechanical irritation to the respiratory tract, and contact with eyes may cause mild irritation. It is not widely reported to be carcinogenic, mutagenic, or toxic for reproduction. Due to its high stability and low solubility, it is persistent in the environment. Standard industrial hygiene practices, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (e.g., gloves, eye protection, dust mask) and ensuring adequate ventilation, should be followed when handling.
