Properties
Aniline black has a strong tinting strength, a low scattering power, a very strong
light absorption capability, and its fastness properties are quite good. It also
produces matt effects (velvety appearance) in paint because of its high binder demand.
Uses
Aniline black is probably the oldest synthetic organic pigment, it was discovered
around 1860. It is mostly used in some speciality coatings where very deep blacks
are required. However, its chromium content limits its application where physiological
properties have to be considered.
