High-Quality Iron Oxide Yellow Pigment for Concrete, Coatings & Plastics
Stable Yellow Inorganic Pigment for Construction Materials, Paints, Plastics, Rubber & Ceramics
Description
Iron Oxide Yellow is a widely used inorganic pigment for producing stable yellow and earth-yellow shades in construction materials, coatings, plastics, rubber and other industrial products.
It offers good tinting strength, alkali resistance and reliable color stability, making it especially suitable for cement-based products and outdoor applications. For manufacturers, the right pigment grade can help achieve consistent color, good dispersion and stable production performance.
What Is Iron Oxide Yellow?
Iron Oxide Yellow is a synthetic inorganic pigment used to create yellow, ochre and warm earth-tone colors. It is widely used because of its durability, chemical stability and suitability for mineral-based materials.
Typical applications include:
Concrete and cement products
Paving blocks and decorative bricks
Architectural and exterior coatings
Floor and industrial paints
Plastics and masterbatch
Rubber products
Ceramics and glazes
Artificial and decorative stone
Colored asphalt and landscape materials
The final color depends on pigment grade, dosage, substrate and processing conditions. Formulation trials are recommended before bulk production.
Key Benefits of Iron Oxide Yellow
Stable Color Performance
Iron Oxide Yellow provides consistent yellow and earth-tone shades, helping manufacturers maintain color uniformity between production batches.
Good Alkali Resistance
Its inorganic properties make it suitable for alkaline environments such as cement, concrete, mortar and other mineral-based building materials.
Good Light & Weather Resistance
Iron Oxide Yellow can be used in many exterior applications exposed to sunlight and changing weather conditions, including architectural coatings, paving products and landscape materials.
Good Tinting Strength & Dispersion
Good tinting strength can help control pigment dosage, while suitable dispersion supports uniform color development in coatings, plastics and other formulations.
Main Applications
Concrete & Construction Materials
Iron Oxide Yellow is widely used to color:
Paving blocks
Sidewalks and curbstones
Decorative bricks
Concrete walls
Cement tiles
Terrazzo
Artificial stone
Landscape products
It is suitable for producing yellow, ochre and natural earth-tone finishes in architectural and landscape projects.
Paints & Coatings
Iron Oxide Yellow can be incorporated into:
Interior and exterior wall paint
Architectural coatings
Textured coatings
Floor paint
Decorative coatings
Industrial coatings
For coating manufacturers, pigment dosage, dispersion and binder compatibility should be evaluated according to the specific formulation.
Plastics & Masterbatch
Applications include PVC profiles, plastic pipes, sheets, containers, WPC products, masterbatch and other colored plastic products.
However, heat stability is an important consideration. Yellow iron oxide can begin converting toward red at elevated temperatures, with the reference material noting conversion beginning above approximately 180°C.
For high-temperature plastic processing, customers should conduct a processing trial with the selected grade.
Rubber, Ceramics & Other Applications
Iron Oxide Yellow can also be used in rubber flooring, rubber products, ceramic products, glazes and other industrial coloring applications.
The final result depends on processing temperature, formulation and application conditions.
Available Iron Oxide Yellow Grades
Our commonly supplied yellow grades include:
Iron Oxide Yellow 313
Iron Oxide Yellow 920
Iron Oxide Yellow 4960
Different grades can be selected according to the required color, application and production process. Customers replacing an existing supplier can provide their current grade or color standard for comparison and trial evaluation.
What Should Buyers Check Before Ordering?
When purchasing Iron Oxide Yellow in bulk, buyers should consider more than price. Key parameters include:
|
