RE: [Digital BW] Re: ASTM Pigment Names and Numbers

2008-03-19 by Brian Corll

Thanks, Paul. Interesting.having been a painter for 40 years I recognize all
of the pigment names. The red is quinacridone red, slight bluish, non-toxic,
and the most lightfast color in its range. The blue is phthalocyanine blue
(my favorite), possibly carcinogenic, and also complete permanent (in use
since 1936). The yellow is Hansa yellow,non-toxic, may fade in tints.  Just
what I expected.

The numbers on the right at

<http://www.paulroark.com/BW-Info/Color-pigments.jpg> may be what
you're looking for. They appear to be fairly standard in the color
industry. The magenta may be slightly different.
