PRODUCT PROFILE
P.Y.176Pigment Yellow 176 — grade profile
Pigment Yellow 176 (P.Y.176) is a diarylide disazo pigment for Printing inks. Compare shade, tinting strength, dispersion and processing stability in the customer’s actual resin or binder rather than relying on one universal value.
Published screening data includes published heat reference 200 °C, light fastness 6/8 and oil absorption <55 ml/100g. Application-specific heat and fastness entries in the technical table take precedence.
The listed application scope is Printing inks.
Selection focus
At equal loading, compare shade, tinting strength, dispersion and resin or binder compatibility, then confirm the required fastness under the final process conditions.
