Pigment yellow 74

Pigment Yellow 74 (CAS 6358-31-2), also sold under the trade names Dalamar Yellow and Luna Yellow, is a monoazo organic pigment delivering bright, greenish-yellow coloration across a broad range of industrial substrates.

It is a standard workhorse colorant for applications requiring good lightfastness and clean hue at competitive cost. In plastics and polymers, it is used to color polyolefins, PVC, and engineering resins.

These applications require consistent hue and processing stability. Coatings formulators incorporate it into architectural, industrial, and decorative paints to achieve high-chroma yellow shades with acceptable outdoor durability.

Printing ink manufacturers use it extensively in offset, flexographic, and packaging inks. Its strong tinting strength supports efficient pigment loading across various printing processes and substrate types.

In textile and paper applications, it functions as a surface colorant and pigment dispersion component. It is commonly used for coated papers and pigment-printed fabrics requiring vibrant yellow tones.

Pigment Yellow 74 is supplied as a dry powder, typically in press cake form or as predispersed concentrates. This depends on the end-use requirement and the specific manufacturing process involved.

It is available in standard pigment grades, with particle size and surface treatment varying by manufacturer. These variations help the pigment suit specific dispersion systems and resin binders.

Technical-grade material is the predominant commercial form for this product. Specifications are strictly aligned to standard colorant industry benchmarks to ensure consistent performance and quality.
