Abstract

Iron blue pigments are representatives of the inorganic blue pigments. They are characterized by a sufficient hue, high tinting strength, and suitable rheological properties. Iron blue pigments are subdivided into “soluble iron blue” and “insoluble iron blue”. Both pigments are synthesized using precipitation techniques. Iron blue pigments are mainly used in printing applications. Special uses of the pigments are agriculture and medicine.
