مقدمة موجزة:

Iron Oxide Yellow, also known as hydrated ferric oxide or Pigment Yellow 42, is a yellow to brownish-yellow powder with the chemical formula α-FeOOH (or Fe₂O₃·H₂O). It has a fine particle structure and a density ranging from 4.0 to 5.0 g/cm³ depending on the specific grade. The pigment begins to decompose and lose its water of crystallization at temperatures above 150°C, transforming into iron oxide red. This pigment is non-toxic, insoluble in water and alcohols, and dissolves in acids. It exhibits excellent light fastness, weather resistance, alkali resistance, and good acid resistance. Its tinting strength and covering power are comparable to those of iron oxide red.

الحزمة والتخزين:

Iron Oxide Yellow is typically packaged in 25 kg bags (paper/plastic) or as per customer requirements. It should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from moisture and direct sunlight, and protected from weathering. Ensure the packaging is tightly sealed after use to prevent contamination and absorption of moisture. Proper handling and storage will ensure the longevity and effectiveness of the pigment, with a recommended shelf life of up to 5-10 years under optimal conditions.
