98% Pure
A premium copper phthalocyanine pigment of the Beta modification. Known for its brilliant greenish-blue shade, it offers outstanding resistance to crystallization and flocculation, making it ideal for high-quality inks, coatings, and plastics.
Pigment Blue 15:3 (Beta Blue) is the greenish shade of copper phthalocyanine blue. It is distinguished from the Alpha form (15:0/15:1) by its superior stability against solvents and heat. This makes it the industry standard for applications requiring high durability.
Ruvon International supplies high-strength Pigment Blue 15:3 with excellent dispersibility. It provides a clean, bright shade with high tinting strength, ensuring cost-effectiveness in masterbatch and ink formulations. It is non-bleeding and resistant to migration in plastics.

The Beta modification of Copper Phthalocyanine is thermodynamically more stable than the Alpha form. This gives Pigment Blue 15:3 its characteristic greenish-blue hue and, crucially, its resistance to crystallization in aromatic solvents. This property is vital for liquid inks and paints where other pigments might lose strength or change shade over time. Its high heat stability also makes it the pigment of choice for engineering plastics processed at high temperatures.
