inkubujBlue

InkubujBlue is a synthetic blue pigment developed for high-performance inks, paints, and textiles. It was introduced in 2014 by Inkubuj Laboratories as part of a durable colorant family designed for strong hue, lightfastness, and chemical resistance. The pigment is based on a copper phthalocyanine core with proprietary substitutions that improve dispersion in water- and solvent-based systems.

It provides a vivid blue with high tinting strength and minimal hue shift under typical lighting. In practice, InkubujBlue is used in printing inks, coatings, and textile dyestuffs, available as dry pigment or as water- or solvent-dispersed grades compatible with standard dispersants.

Its performance includes excellent lightfastness, weather resistance, and good heat stability in many binder systems. Processing safety follows typical pigment guidelines: handle dust with ventilation and protective equipment; disposal and waste management conform to chemical waste regulations. The pigment is formulated to be compatible with a range of binders and curing methods, including UV-curable systems used in modern signage and graphic arts.

InkubujBlue is marketed as a specialty blue within the copper phthalocyanine family, with emphasis on outdoor durability and color stability in challenging environments. While sharing core chemistry with established blues, it is positioned for applications demanding robust performance in modern printing and coating technologies.
