DCL Blue 385 is a rich blue powder produced by high-temperature calcination. It has good UV and visible opacity, is chemically inert, heat-resistant, and stable to ultraviolet light. It is non-bleeding, non-migratory, has exceptional durability and hiding power, and is compatible with most resin systems and polymers, being non-warping. Typical applications include liquid and powder coatings, inks, dispersions, concrete, plastics, and other applications where equivalent pigment chemistry is used.
