Pigment red 184

Pigment Red 184, also known by the trade names Rubine F6B and Naphthol Red F6B BS and indexed under C.I. 12487 (CI 12487), is a monoazo organic pigment supplied in powder form. It carries CAS number 99402-80-9 and EC number 911-739-1, with no assigned E-code.

In plastics and polymer compounding, Pigment Red 184 delivers strong red-to-rubine hues through its azo chromophore structure, providing heat stability suitable for processing temperatures common in injection moulding. In printing inks and packaging coatings, it offers the colour strength and binder compatibility needed for consistent film formation across solvent-based and UV-curable systems.

Pigment Red 184 is available in standard powder grades and is subject to REACH registration requirements for supply within the European Economic Area. Procurement teams should confirm supplier compliance documentation, including Safety Data Sheets aligned with EU GHS standards, and clarify packaging formats such as fibre drums or multi-wall bags based on volume requirements.
