Product Overview

• O’Leary’s Nerox 505 is a high performance pigmented carbon black.
• Brand and model: Nerox 505 from O’Reilly Long
• Product Type: Ordinary pigmented furnace carbon black.
• Product Appearance: Black powder.

Product Characteristics

• Good blackness: it can give the product a deep black color and meet the application scenarios that require high blackness.
• Low oil absorption: the oil absorption is about sixty-something, which helps to reduce the amount of resin in the ink formulation and optimize the cost and viscosity control.
• Easily dispersed: it can be quickly and evenly dispersed in inks, coatings and other systems, reducing grinding time and energy consumption and improving production efficiency.
• High coloring power: the coloring power can reach 134% (ASTM), a small amount of carbon black can achieve good coloring effect, can significantly improve the ink coverage and color saturation.
• Blue phase color tone: belong to the blue phase black high-performance pigment carbon black, make the black more vivid and unique, good visual effect.
• Good chemical stability and weather resistance: it can maintain stable performance under different environmental conditions and is not easy to be affected by external factors and fade or deteriorate.

Product Applications

• Printing inks: Especially suitable for sheetfed/ letterpress, heatset inks, liquid inks (flexo/gravure) solvent-based systems, UV-curable inks, etc., which can make the inks have good fluidity, stability and printability.
• Coatings: It can be used in the tone coloring of pure black coatings (e.g. automotive primer), the tone adjustment of grey coatings and paints, as well as the light coloring of transparent coatings (e.g. for metal effects and wooden glass), and can also be used in powder coatings and radiation curing coatings to enhance the blackness, covering power and decorative properties of the coatings.
• Other industries: It is also used in engineering plastics, cable insulators, ceramics, etc. It can be used as a colorant in plastics to improve the appearance quality of plastic products; it helps to improve the performance of cable insulators; and it can achieve good coloring effect in ceramics.
