Brown iron oxide is a pigment composed of red iron oxide and yellow iron oxide, a small amount of black iron oxide can be added if needed. Depending on the production process, the color phase can be yellow brown, red brown, black brown, etc… Because the dispersion is roughly the same, they can be mixed evenly. It has the characteristics of iron oxide red and yellow iron oxide pigment, such as the strong coloring and covering power, and the functions of heat resistance, alkali resistance, acid resistance. Of course, it also has the same applications as most iron oxide pigments.
