RED OXIDE PIGMENT
[EIRI/EDPR/1009] (J.C.9648)
INTRODUCTION
Iron Oxides are extensively used in the preparation of paints. There are two main stains yellow and red, Both these varieties are available in synthetic and natural forms. Yellow oxide of iron is widely used as a retainer in glass paints, undercoats, of iron finds application in paints rubber, plastics, ceramics, paper linoleum and for polishing glass, metals and diamonds, Iron oxides are used in paints for exterior work on account of the low cost and protective value. They are used as primers for structural steel, automobiles bodies, ship bottoms of iron prolong life of the substance by eliminating the destructive effect light on the film. Iron oxide pigments own their yellower tint to ferrous oxide and ferric hydroxide while red red dish-brown colour is essentially due to anhydrous ferric oxide Fe203.
The continually increasing importance of iron oxide pigments is based on their nontoxicity. Chemical stability, wide variety of colours ranging from yellow, orange, red, brown to black, low price. Natural and synthetic iron oxide pigments consist of well-defined compounds with known crystal structures.
Natural Oxide:-
There are various types of deposits of yellow and red Oxides of iron available in various places in the world mainly they are classified as under.
a) Spanish
Extensive deposits of iron oxide of fine quality are found in the Malge District. The One contains from 76 to 92% ferric Oxide, and the popularity of this pigment is due to its colour and staining power, due to is physical conditions rather, then on its chemical compositions.
