Products Usage
Phthalocyanine blue pigment is also known as copper phthalein blue, Heliqin blue B, pigment blue, blue palace, Monas blue B, and so on. It belongs to the series of phthalocyanine pigments.
The molecular formula is C32H16CuN8.
It has many excellent properties. Such as high crystallinity and stability, strong coloring power for Prussian blue several times, more than a group of green, insoluble in most solvents, when heated to 500 degrees, also does not occur sublimation and chemical changes, with bright blue, and wear resistance and good transparency. Now, Phthalocyanine blue pigment is not only used as a colorant but also used in organic semiconductors, photoconductivity, sensitization of photosensitive resins, and other fields. Therefore, copper phthalocyanine has become the largest yield and most widely used blue variety in organic materials. At present, the demand for it is increasing in the world market.
