What Is Color Paste?
Color paste is a concentrated coloring agent that combines pigments or dyes with a carrier, such as resin or oil, to create a paste.
It serves various industries, including fine arts, crafts, cosmetics, food production, plastics, textiles, and printing. The paste’s composition—pigments or dyes for color, a carrier for dispersion, and additives for adjusting viscosity and dispersibility—ensures versatile application. During manufacturing, pigments or dyes are ground finely, dispersed in the carrier, and enhanced with additives to achieve the desired paste consistency.
Notable for providing a broad color palette and facilitating easy material coloring, color paste features a robust shelf life and diverse types. However, some varieties may exhibit lower transparency or diminished resistance to light and heat.
