CHALLENGE IN BLACK PLASTICS

Why heat matters in plastic applications

In outdoor plastic components, heat generated by
conventional black pigments can lead to:

  • Warpage and dimensional instability
  • Accelerated material aging
  • Reduced comfort and usability (e.g., decking surfaces)
  • Design limitations for dark colors

Why TIPAQUE BLACK SG‑101 for Plastics

  • Reduced temperature rise under sunlight
  • Lower risk of warpage and deformation
  • Maintains true black appearance
  • High NIR reflectance without sacrificing color
  • Chromium‑free inorganic pigment option
  • Potential contribution to NIR‑based recyclability
