Using Transparent Iron Oxide Pigments in Wood Finish Applications
A wide range of colorants is available for use in high-quality interior and exterior wood finish applications, including opaque iron oxides, organic pigments, dyes, and transparent iron oxides.
Since the end of the 19th century, iron oxide pigments have been manufactured on a commercial scale, overcoming the variability in the colors obtained from natural sources. These pigments have again been predominantly large particle sized pigments maximizing opacity and providing consistent, clean products with high color strength. The main applications for this pigment type have been the construction industry.
