Pros: Clean blue-violet shade; excellent lightfastness & weather resistance (7–8, full shade); cost-effective
Cons: Heat resistance only ~200°C; tends to discolor under high-temperature processing
Color Card:
How to Choose?
Need violet → Pigment Violet 19 β; need red shade → Pigment Violet 19 γ
High-temp molding / engineering plastics (240°C+) → always Pigment Violet 19 γ;
coatings, inks, baking enamels → Pigment Violet 19 β
Note for quotation: Same CAS (1047-16-1), but different crystal forms mean different production cost — do not quote them as one price
