Description
A brilliant blue or green pigment. Phosphotungstic pigments were first made in Germany about 1910 and patented in 1914. They are made by precipitating a basic dye with phosphotungstic acid. This produces a pigment with good lightfastness, although some phosphotungstic pigments may bleed. They are used in printing inks, paints, and enamels. They are not approved for permanent painting.
