Fluorescent Pigments
   
  Two types: B-series, C-series
 
  B-series
  The B-series of fluorescent pigments are for general purpose, thermoplastic pigments specifically formulated to achieve maximum brightness, colour strength and saturation at a larger particle size. The B-series can be used in paper coatings, textile inks, screen inks and paint formulas which are formulated with water, aliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon solvents.
 
  C-series
  A range of formaldehyde-free, thermoplastic flourescent pigments formulated for improved thermal stability and low "plate-out" characteristics in plastics applications. The C-series has excellent compatibility with both commodity and engineering grade resins. Maximum colour development will be achieved at processing temperatures between 204-232
