Application of Iron Oxide Pigments 20
2025 / 02 / 14
I am Otto, learning about pigments. As a benchmark in the pigment industry, Lanxess has always been in a leading position. Today, I will learn about the application of Lanxess Bayferrox® series pigments in seed coloring. If there are any errors, please help me correct them.
Seed coating technology can improve the disease resistance of seeds, accelerate germination, promote seedling formation, increase yield, and improve quality. And iron oxide pigment can be used as a coloring agent for seed coating, improving the identification of different seeds.
Lanxess' synthetic iron oxide yellow and red pigments are easy to disperse, with high color intensity and hiding power. Compared to organic pigments, Bayferrox ® product has higher cost-effectiveness and higher weather resistance, so the color can be maintained for a long time after sowing the seeds.
Lanxess' iron oxide pigments are harmless. Its chemical properties are similar to naturally occurring iron oxide. However, Lanxess' iron oxide pigments have higher purity and better particle morphology, making them superior in color compared to similar natural products.
