Pigment violet 23

Pigment Violet 23 (CAS 6358-30-1), also known as PV23 and Permanent Violet RL, is a high-performance dioxazine organic pigment delivering intense reddish-violet to blue-violet shades.

Where is Pigment violet 23 used?

• Coatings and industrial paints: deep violet tones and bluing agent
• White and light-colored formulations: neutralizing yellowish casts
• Plastics: polyolefins, PVC and engineering resins requiring processing-temperature resistance
• Printing inks: packaging gravure, flexographic and offset inks
• Textile and paper dyeing: violet shades with strong lightfastness
• UV-curable systems: effective in modern printing and coating technologies
• Plastic applications require resistance to migration.

Good to know: Standard commercial grades are differentiated by particle size and surface treatment to optimize performance in waterborne or solventborne systems. Grades conforming to C.I. 51319 specifications are available for general industrial and high-performance colorant applications.
