Pigments are colorants which are extensively used in the printing, textile, and automotive industries. Pigment is organic or inorganic powdered solid which is insoluble. Pigments offer excellent characteristics such as good baking stability, excellent solvent resistance, easily dispersible nature, high tinting strength, and consistent unique shades. Pigments are also used in paints that are used for decorative and protective coatings.
