PVC Cable Industry Requirements
PVC cable applications demand pigments with specific performance characteristics to ensure long-term reliability, safety, and aesthetic appeal. The key requirements include:
Non-Migration: Pigments must not migrate or bleed into adjacent materials
Heat Resistance: Stability during cable extrusion at 160-200°C
Electrical Properties: No adverse effect on insulation resistance
Weathering Resistance: UV stability for outdoor cable applications
Plasticizer Resistance: Stability in plasticized PVC formulations
Recommended Pigment Portfolio
FUXIN PIGMENT recommends four yellow pigments for PVC cable applications, each offering unique advantages:
PY62 (C.I. Pigment Yellow 62)
PY168 (C.I. Pigment Yellow 168)
PY183 (C.I. Pigment Yellow 183)
PY191 (C.I. Pigment Yellow 191)
Technical Performance Data
Migration Resistance Testing
All four pigments have been tested for migration resistance according to industry standards:
White PVC Contact: Class 4-5 (minimal to no migration)
Plasticizer Resistance: No bleeding in high-phthalate formulations
Heat Resistance
Thermal stability testing confirms suitability for PVC cable processing:
Short-term Exposure: All pigments stable at 200°C for 30 minutes
Long-term Exposure: No color shift after 1000 hours at 80°C
Regulatory Compliance
All recommended pigments comply with relevant cable industry standards:
REACH: PY62, PY168, PY183, PY191 fully registered
RoHS: Compliant with Restriction of Hazardous Substances
Halogen-Free: PY62 is suitable for halogen-free cable formulations
