>>> Applications of Iron Oxide Red 101

• In the building materials industry. It is mainly used for colored cement, colored cement tiles, glazed tiles, concrete floor tiles, colored mortar, colored asphalt, terrazzo, mosaic tiles, artificial marble and wall painting.
• Used for coloring of various paint and coatings, including interior and exterior wall coatings, powder coatings, etc… It can also be used in oil paints, including epoxy, alkyd, amino and other primers and top paints. Used in toy paint, decorative paint, furniture paint, electrophoretic paint and enamel paint. Iron red primer has anti-rust function, which can replace high-priced red lead paint and save non-ferrous metals.
• Coloring of plastic products, including the coloring of solid plastics, thermoplastics and rubber products, such as, automobile inner tubes, airplane inner tubes, bicycle inner tubes, etc…
