Performance & Formulation Insights for Olivsperse Red IO

Superior Stability in a Natural Carrier

Olivsperse Red IO utilizes Octyldodecyl Oleate, a natural dispersant derived from olive oil, to suspend Red Iron Oxide (CI 77491). This advanced system ensures the pigment remains perfectly distributed, preventing settling, agglomeration, and color shifting in the final formula. The result is exceptional stability and a homogenous, pourable liquid that simplifies manufacturing and guarantees batch-to-batch consistency.

Enhanced Performance for Modern Formulations

Engineered as a high-performance alternative to silicone-based dispersions, Olivsperse Red IO offers superior functionality for today’s formulator. Its natural carrier provides excellent slip and a pleasant sensory feel without the use of volatile synthetics. This high-solids dispersion delivers intense, opaque color, enabling full coverage and vibrant red tones at lower usage levels.
