Red Iron Oxide Pigment Fe2O3 CAS 1309-37-1 for Coatings, Plastics and Construction Materials

Synthetic red iron oxide inorganic pigment candidate from a China-based supplier, listed with CAS 1309-37-1, EINECS 215-168-2 and Fe2O3 formula. Buyer review should focus on shade matching, particle size distribution, soluble salt level, tinting strength, dispersibility, heavy metal limits, moisture, packaging format, COA consistency and export document readiness before RFQ or sampling.

Who uses this page

Target buyers

  • Paint and architectural coating manufacturers
  • Playground surface coating formulators
  • Construction material and concrete colorant producers
  • Plastic masterbatch and rubber product manufacturers
  • Ceramic, ink and industrial colorant buyers
  • Chemical distributors sourcing inorganic pigments from China
Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Supplier lists standard packaging or customized packaging; confirm actual bag size, liner type, palletization and container loading quantity.
  • Request photos of export packing, marks, batch labels and pallet condition before shipment.
  • Confirm whether sample, pilot and full-container packaging are identical in material compatibility and moisture protection.
  • For playground surface coating use, ask whether packaging can support clean transfer and traceability for color-critical batches.
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Red coloration for cement, concrete and construction materials
  • Pigment component for outdoor coatings requiring lightfastness and weather resistance
  • Colorant for plastics, rubber and masterbatch systems after compatibility testing
  • Industrial color formulation where low soluble salts and stable shade are important
  • Sample evaluation for public-area or playground surface coating projects
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • Request 100 g to 1 kg lab sample with COA and shade reference before bulk RFQ.
  • Compare standard red iron oxide grade against customized micron-size or color-matched grade.
  • Ask for third-party inspection, pre-shipment sample sealing and batch COA for container orders.
  • Source under buyer-specified impurity limits if the end use involves children-adjacent surfaces or public installations.
  • Consider alternate qualified suppliers for dual sourcing where color consistency and lead time are critical.
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Verify CAS 1309-37-1 and Fe2O3 identity against SDS, COA, TDS and commercial invoice before purchase.
  • Request current SDS in buyer-required language, COA by batch, TDS, RoHS/REACH statement where relevant, heavy metal test report and non-DG transport statement if applicable.
  • Do not rely on marketplace wording such as non-hazardous or non-toxic without reviewing SDS classification, local pigment regulations and end-use requirements.
  • For educational playground surface coatings, confirm compliance-relevant impurity limits with the final coating formulator, especially lead, cadmium, chromium VI, mercury, arsenic and soluble heavy metals.
  • Check destination-country import requirements, customs HS code, labeling and any restrictions for pigments used in children-adjacent or public-surface applications.
  • DG/export status should be confirmed from SDS Section 14 and freight forwarder review; iron oxide pigments are commonly shipped as non-DG, but documentation must be batch- and shipment-specific.
