PMH Pigments are a solid solution of thermoplastic polyamide resin with fluorescent dyes.

Minimum processing temperature to ensure complete colour development is 220°C

Other information:

PMH fluorescent series are much brighter than conventional non fluorescent colors.

Opacity can be improved, if necessary, by small additions of rutile titanium dioxide. The fluorescent color will become more pastel as the quantity of titanium dioxide is increased.

PMH series offers limited light fastness on exterior exposure. To enhance lightfastness, optimal pigment loading & uv stabilizers could be used.

To obtain maximum color and brightness it is important to use sufficient pigment. The quantity used will depend upon the thickness of plastic product.

PMH Series has excellent temperature stability. Due to the high melting point, optimum dispersion requires processing temperature of above 220⁰C.
