Manganese Violet Ultramarine Technical Specifications
|
Applications:
Colors used in the Cosmetic Industry can be grouped into two categories: FDA Certified Organics and Inorganic Pigments.
Inorganic pigments are controlled by the Food and Drug Administration. Prior to 1960, the only requirements for inorganic pigments were that they meet heavy metal concentrations as specified by the FDA. A listing of these color additives and requirements can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations 21, Part 73. All of our products are tested and certified to meet these standards. Inorganic pigments are primarily used in pigmented face powders, foundations, blushers, nail lacquers and cosmetics used in the area of the eye such as mascaras, eyeshadows, liners, etc.
Chromium Greens
This strong violet pigment is a complex of manganese ammonium pyrophosphate. It is stronger violet than ultramarine and is primarily used in eye products. Manganese violet decomposes in water and cannot be used in hydrated emulsion systems. It is relatively stable in acid ph ranges. Along with the standard shade of manganese violet, we also offer material that is considerably redder in mass tone and tint . It is slightly weaker in strength, but more transparent. The red tone and transparency are benefits for customers using carmine in formulations. Addition of this grade will allow the formulator to reduce the amount of carmine required which will give excellent cost savings.
