VANADUR® / VANADUR® PLUS

The VANADUR® line are inorganic pigments based on bismuth vanadate. These green shade yellows exhibit high color saturation as well as excellent opacity. Furthermore VANADUR® pigments enable brilliant and clean tints that meet the highest requirements. They are easy to disperse and can be used in solvent based as well as in waterborne systems including aqueous dispersions. VANADUR® pigments are especially suitable for automotive and industrial coatings due to their outstanding durability and fastness properties.

For some applications the stability properties of bismuth vanadate regarding heat, SO₂ or alkali resistance are insufficient. Especially plastic applications require a stable color shade even at very high temperatures. Heubach developed highly stabilized bismuth vanadate pigments. The VANADUR® PLUS line are Silica encapsulated green & red shade bismuth vanadates.

Due to the encapsulation, these pigments show improved properties like extreme heat resistance and improved acid, alkali and SO₂ resistance. They are particularly recommended for coil coating or powder coatings as well for various plastic applications.
