Birla Carbon Coatings
Birla Carbon Coatings is a carbon black solutions category for paint and coating applications that require strong black colour, tinting strength, blue undertone, gloss, dispersion performance, and consistent formulation stability. Birla Carbon's carbon black portfolio helps coating formulators achieve the right colour performance, flow, viscosity, and surface finish for architectural, automotive, industrial, and powder coating systems.
In the coatings industry, carbon black acts as both a black pigment and a functional material that can influence opacity, jetness, undertone, conductivity, UV protection, viscosity, and durability. Birla Carbon provides various Raven, Ultra, Conductex, and specialty carbon blacks to help coating manufacturers tailor product performance based on chemistry, substrate, application process, and final quality requirements.
Architectural Coatings from Birla Carbon are designed for decorative and architectural coatings that require tinting strength, tonal performance, compatibility, and good dispersibility. These products help deliver consistent black colour, an attractive blue undertone, and stable tinting performance across various decorative paint systems.
Automotive Coatings from Birla Carbon are developed for automotive applications that require high jetness, high purity, low metal content, gloss, colour stability, and viscosity balance. These products are suitable for coating systems that demand high visual standards, premium surface finish, and consistent colour performance.
Industrial Coatings from Birla Carbon include carbon blacks with various morphologies and surface functionalities to meet more complex industrial coating requirements. These products support applications requiring durability, colour performance, conductivity, UV protection, corrosion-related performance, and compatibility with different coating systems.
Powder Coatings from Birla Carbon are designed to achieve the desired colour and tonal performance while supporting good dispersion in the extrusion process. This portfolio is suitable for powder coating systems that require jetness, gloss, surface aesthetics, process stability, and consistent black colour performance.
