Chrome Pigment

Chrome pigment powder is not poisonous (poisonous if overdosed), but chromium compounds are poisonous. Hexavalent chromium has powerful oxidizing characteristics and is 100 times more toxic than trivalent chromium. Studies show that hexavalent chromium is carcinogenic and toxic to crops and microorganisms. The human body primarily absorbs it through the respiratory and digestive tracts. Chromium poisoning symptoms include rhinitis, pharyngitis, nausea, vomiting, gastrointestinal ulcers, and gastrointestinal dysfunction. For this reason, taking protective measures during handling is crucial. One should wear an activated carbon gas mask and gloves to minimize the risk of chrome pigment powder exposure.

Chrome pigment powder can resist UV rays, moisture, and chemicals, making it durable against the elements. It will retain color stability for a long time.

We can use chromium oxide pigments by themselves or mix them with other pigments to get various colors and improve the outcome. If we incorporate the right amount of chromium oxide powder to the coating, we can enhance both the color and weather resistance of the coating.

Chromium pigment powder is toxic and is only allowed for use in industrial settings. It should not be used in industries involved in food or toy production.

Painting art: Chrome pigment is a significant green pigment that has extensive application in oil painting. It can be used solely or in combination with other pigments to produce a variety of green shades. Chromium trioxide pigment provides high coverage and color stability, ensuring brightness for a long time.

Printing: In the printing industry, green chrome pigment is a commonly used coloring agent for paper and packaging materials. Its strong opacity and color stability give the finished product an appealing appearance that doesn’t fade easily.

Ceramic and glass craftsmanship: Chromium pigment is useful in creating ceramics and glass. It can impart a distinctive green color to resulting products, yielding an artistic and decorative flair. Achieving this effect involves adding an appropriate amount of chromium trioxide.

Plastic products: Chrome pigment is often utilized for coloring plastics since it’s weather-resistant and chemically stable. Adding chromium trioxide gives plastic products durable colors while protecting them from UV rays.

Many industries commonly use chrome pigments because they have bright, clean coloring, high coverage, and do not fade.

Chrome pigment powder for spraying is a high performance coating material, which has excellent abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance and high temperature performance, and is widely used in aviation, aerospace, automotive, machinery and other fields. In most cases, it is sprayed by electrostatic spray gun, and can be coated by spraying, flame spraying, plasma spraying and other methods to form a hard, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant coating.

Chromium in chrome pigments is a toxic substance and close attention should be paid to the environmental aspects of using and disposing of chrome pigments. Used chrome pigments should be disposed of properly to avoid pollution of the environment.
