Product Overview


Ferrophos® Pigment is used in preparing unique, cost-effective and high-performance weldable, conductive or corrosion resistant coatings. A high melting point, high specific gravity and low oil absorption makes this pigment the logical choice for many coating applications.

Applications Overview

  • The only pigment needed for weldable coatings such as pre-construction primers,
    adhesives, sealants and coil coatings.
  • Caulks and pastes
  • Electrically shielding materials
  • Automotive and appliance spot welding applications.
  • Can be used as a single pigment for anti-static and electrostatic coatings.
  • Powder metallurgy additive.
  • Proprietary specialty applications developed by customers.

Benefits

  • Cost savings
    • Partial replacement for zinc dust in zinc rich coatings
    • Partial replacement for nickel or copper pigments in EMI RFI shielding coatings.
  • Electrically and thermally conductive. Chemically inert to most coating
    environments.
  • Environmentally friendly
    • Inert in typical applications
    • Non-hazardous
    • Long storage life in original container
  • Angular particles provide reinforcement, hardness and abrasion resistance
    of coating films.
  • Lowers sintering temperatures and facilitates compression and may improve gaining
    magnetic properties in powder metallurgy.
