Iron oxide 130 (Ocher)

Iron oxide 130 (Ocher) is red powder, odorless, tasteless, stainless, non-toxic, in the group of mineral pigments that usually is used as pigment or additive to faster drying, in paint production.

What is Iron oxide 130 (Ocher) ?

Iron oxide is called red soil or Ocher that is obtained from iron ore weathering in nature and its red color is because of being hematite in that. Ocher soil in fact is a pigment that involves yellow and red and purple and brown color range the color changing in that is because of hematite existence. Between various types of Oxides and existed hydroxides, iron oxide with Fe₂O₃ chemical formula, that is well known as trivalent iron oxide, we want to its color be in the range of red until reddish brown.

Advantages and properties of Iron oxide 130 (Ocher)

Among the functional features and properties of this matter can be mention to strong coating power, high coloring, stable function, good stability to Acid and lime and alkali, proper resistance to UV. This composite also completely solves in hydrochloric acid and has relative solubility in sulfuric acid.

Application of Iron oxide (Ocher)

This matter mostly is used functioned as pigment in paint and coating industry, produce ink, paper, in rubber and plastic industry, produce pencil graphite, Ferrite, flooring and composite industry, cosmetics and sanitary industry, diamond polish production and produce cement and concrete. This matter also because of its high purity and meshing uniformity is functioned in electrode industry, lining industry and welding powder.
