The ARAGEN-10 Series Green Formaldehyde-Free Daylight Fluorescent Pigment offers superior performance in various properties compared to formaldehyde-containing pigments. With better light fastness, heat stability, and exceptional solvent resistance, this pigment ensures long-lasting vibrancy in diverse applications. Developed using advanced technology, this non-melting thermoset pigment can withstand temperatures up to 240°C for 3 minutes, providing unmatched color stability. Its high resistance to heat and solvents, coupled with its eco-friendly formaldehyde-free composition, makes it an ideal choice for solvent and water resistance demanding applications. Suitable for institutional and government procurement, ARAGEN-10 complies with regulatory standards such as EINECS, TSCA, REACH, EN71 part 3, and is heavy metals free, meeting stringent requirements for safe usage. It also offers optimal performance in PU, paints, screen inks, and various industrial applications.

Light Fastness And Heat Stability Light Fastness And Heat Stabil
Light FastnessARAGEN-10 series can partially resist the multiple factors, generally known to influence light fastness and, depending on the shade, values up to maximally 6 on the BWS can be achieved (30% pigment, UV-Top Coat, 150 μm layer thickness, PVC).Heat StabilityARAGEN-10 series can withstand temperatures of 240 ºC for up to 3 minutes without affecting the perceived shades. Resistance to even higher temperatures is possible but for shorter exposure time.

All non-polymeric components are registered in EINECS and TSCA.All non-polymeric components are registered respectively preregistered in REACHEN71 part 3 conformity (purity requirement). Still tests have to carried on the final application.Heavy metals free (with exception of the natural values in the ppm range).
Solvent Resistance Solvent Resistance
The results of the following method are given on the next page: Mix 1 g pigment thoroughly for 10 seconds in 10 ml of solvent to get the complete pigment wetted. Store the mixture for 37 minutes into a water bath at 37ºC. The solvent resistance of the pigment is determined by inverting and shaking the glass tube and observing how quick the pigment particles start to flow in the solvent or not. Freely moving not attacked particles is the best (5). Totally attacked gel forming particles is worst (1). Bleeding is determined by diluting the filtrate 50 times and measuring the absorption. The worst bleeding is 1. Minor to non-bleeding is the best (5).

Storage And Shelf Life Storage And Shelf Life
ARAGEN-10 series products are stable. Provided they are stored in dry places at ambient temperatures (below 40 °C) the predicted shelf life is 60 months. However depending on the quality of storage conditions, products might be used beyond this shelf life period.
Technology And Applications Technology And Applications
ARALON® ARAGEN-10 is developed as an optimal choice for solvent and water resistance demanding applications. Fluorescent dyes are dissolved & bonded, encapsulated respectively embedded in a hybrid carrier. The chemical respectively physical bond ensure highest possible resistance against migration and staining. The solid solution is milled to optimal particle size. This technology results in ARALON® ARAGEN-10 as excellent STIRIN pigments. The chemical nature of the ARALON® ARAGEN- 10 carrier as modified hybrid cured resin and its pigment engineering deliver beside the high water and solvent resistance an optimum balance between color strength and fluorescence / brightness. The resination ensures best STIR-IN quality, just mixing and homogenizing are sufficient to obtain final application products, no grinding is required, although this does not harm the pigment particles. Further advantages of the chosen pigment engineering are very good staining performance, suited formulations of ARAGEN-10 series are easily washed out from hands and fibers. The pigment engineering ensures too high performance in heat resistance demanding applications like calendered PVC, blow molding and injection molding. Low migration, improved light stability and best Hegman grind cut OFF ensure best performance in PU, Paints and spray cans. ARAGEN-10 is also optimally applied in textile, screen and gravure inks and in crayon pens, Applications in Olefins are possible till 240 ºC and optimal at lower processing temperatures.
Waterborne Formulations Waterborne Formulations
Fluorescent pigments have about 75% of their volume as trapped air. In waterborne formulations of the hydrophobic ARAGEN-10 pigments the trapped air is very slowly replaced by water on the surface of the particles resulting in slowly outgassing of the trapped air in the first days and increasing the pressure of tightly closed containers. Special care should be taken in order to avoid problems. The stability of the pigment particles is not affected by this phenomena. In order to avoid related problems, it is recommended to use only our ARAQUA pigments quality in waterborne formulations.
