    Pigment is an insoluble colored substance used to impart color, opaqueness, and other properties. There are natural and synthetic pigments, which can be organic or inorganic. Organic pigments include vegetable, animal, azo, and non-azo types. Good pigments have properties like small particle size, high covering power, chemical inertness, and resistance to solvents and chemicals. Pigments are widely used to color materials like paint, textiles, plastics and rubbers.

    What is Pigment?

    The colored substance which is insoluble in water or other solvents is called a pigment. Thus the
    application of dye and pigment will be different. A dye is applied in the form of a solution, whereas the
    pigment is applied in the form of a paste in a drying oil, in which it is insoluble. Pigments are insoluble
    powders of very fine particle size, i.u., as small as 0.01 micron, which are used in paints, plastics, rubber,
    textiles, inks and other materials to impart color, opaqueness and other desirable properties to the
    product. There are various types of pigment and widely used in textile dyeing and printing.

    Classification / Types of Pigment:


    There are two types of Pigment. They are-

    1.Natural pigment.

    2.Synthetic pigment.

    Natural pigment are divided by two types.

    1.Organic pigment (chlorophyl Indigo)

    2.Inorganic pigment (inonoxide)

    Synthetic pigment also divided by two types.

    1.Organic pigment. (litholred, peocockblue etc.)

    2.Inorganic pigment. (sulphide, chromate etc.)

    Organic pigment are two types. Such as-

    1. Natural organic.

     Vegetable organic.
     Animal organic.

    2. Synthetic organic.

     Azo.
     Non-azo.

    Azo and Non-azo types are given below-

    Azo:

    1.Pigment dye.

    2.Percipited azo.
    Non azo:

    1.Precipited Basic dyes.

    2.Precipited Acid dyes.

    3.Phthalocyanic pigment.

    4.Quinonoid vat dyes

    5.Quinocridine.

    Properties / Qualities of a Good Pigment:

     Pigment should have minimum particle sizes (0.2-0.4).


     Pigment should have maximum covering power.
     Pigment should have freely mixing power.
     Pigment should be chemically inert.
     Pigment should have good resistance to chemicals.
     Pigment should be resistance to solvent.
     Pigment should have acceptable brilliance, hardness and stability on dyed and printed goods.
     Pigment should have good wet, light, and abrasion resistance.

    Pigment should have good characteristics for excellent dispersion including:

     Particle size and distribution


     Electrical charge
     Specific gravity
     Purity and crystalline structure
     Condition of precipitation
     Should be applied to all fiber
     Should be cheap
