Product Overview

Carbon black is a fine, black powder made from the incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. ZH610, specifically, is a high-performance carbon black that provides deep pigmentation and high gloss for coating inks. It is engineered to be compatible with a wide range of formulations and offers exceptional dispersibility, providing excellent color consistency and stability in finished products. Whether used in high-speed printing or in coatings that are exposed to the elements, ZH610 excels in performance and maintains its integrity over time.

Key Features and Benefits

1. High Pigmentation Strength
   ZH610 is renowned for its superior pigmentation properties. It produces an intense, deep black color that ensures high opacity and strong color strength. This makes it ideal for applications that require rich, consistent black pigmentation, such as automotive coatings, decorative coatings, and printing inks.

2. Superior Dispersion
   One of the standout features of ZH610 is its excellent dispersion properties. Proper dispersion of carbon black in ink formulations is crucial for achieving uniform color and preventing issues like clogging or settling. ZH610 offers easy dispersion into ink systems, ensuring smooth application, even distribution of color, and a consistently high-quality finish.

3. Durability and Weather Resistance
   ZH610 provides excellent durability and resistance to environmental factors such as UV radiation, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. This makes it an ideal choice for outdoor applications where coatings are exposed to harsh conditions. Its UV resistance helps prevent color degradation over time, ensuring long-lasting, vibrant black pigments in coatings and inks.

4. High Gloss and Smooth Finish
   ZH610 contributes to the high gloss and smooth finish of coating inks. This makes it especially useful in premium automotive coatings, high-end packaging, and decorative surfaces where aesthetic appeal is a key consideration. The carbon black's smooth dispersion ensures a uniform coating, resulting in a sleek and glossy final appearance.

5. Chemical Stability and Inertness
   ZH610 boasts excellent chemical stability, which helps maintain the integrity of the coating or ink formulation. It does not interact with other chemical components, ensuring that the physical properties of the final product remain stable over time. This makes it particularly valuable in formulations that require long-term consistency and reliability.

6. Low Ash Content
   ZH610 has an extremely low ash content, which means that it imparts fewer impurities into the formulation. This results in a cleaner and more efficient production process and contributes to the overall purity and quality of the final product.

7. Non-Toxic and Environmentally Friendly
   The production of ZH610 adheres to strict environmental and safety regulations. The carbon black is non-toxic and safe for use in various consumer and industrial applications, ensuring that it meets global standards for environmental responsibility and sustainability.

Applications

1. Coating Inks for Automotive Industry
   The automotive industry requires coating inks that not only offer aesthetic appeal but also provide durability and long-lasting performance. ZH610 excels in automotive coatings due to its rich pigmentation, smooth application, and resistance to UV degradation. It is used in automotive finishes, underbody coatings, and protective paints that need to withstand harsh environmental conditions.

2. Printing Inks for Packaging
   ZH610 is widely used in packaging inks, especially for products that require a deep black color with high opacity. It is commonly used in flexographic and gravure printing for packaging materials like cartons, labels, and flexible packaging. The carbon black's excellent dispersion and high color strength ensure crisp, clean prints with consistent quality.

3. Decorative and Industrial Coatings
   In decorative coatings, ZH610 provides a high-quality black pigment that enhances the visual appeal of the end product. It is used in decorative paints for both residential and commercial applications, including wall paints and finishes. For industrial coatings, such as those used for machinery or equipment, ZH610 provides a uniform, smooth finish that offers both aesthetic value and protection.

4. Wood and Furniture Coatings
   ZH610 is also used in wood and furniture coatings, where high gloss and uniform color are essential. Whether for matte or glossy finishes, ZH610 ensures that the final product maintains its rich black appearance and resists fading, making it perfect for high-end furniture, cabinetry, and other wood products.

5. Ink for Printing on Plastics
   In the plastic industry, ZH610 is used to formulate inks for printing on plastic materials. It enhances the appearance of plastic products, such as containers, consumer goods, and industrial parts. The carbon black ensures that prints on plastics are durable, vibrant, and resistant to wear and fading.
