GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS

Although, its is difficult to define Pigment Pthalocyanine Alpha Blue Structure as it is organo-mettalic compound having four benzpyrol structure and a metal as copper, having resource structure with its critical energy barrier.

Sensitivity of energy barrier is optimum at one condition and can be shifted causing any of the following room, to be attached by a group

  1. Existence of co-valent bonds creates two room ( Carbon atoms electron deficient)
  2. Existence of ionic bonds creates two room (Nitrogen atom having electron surplus charge.

Hence it creates total four structure hence alpha, beta, gamma & delta

Phthalocyanine pigments are used in enamels, linoleum, inks, plastics, soap and detergents, textile fabric and rubber goods.
