HYROX 610 Iron Oxide Brown
HYROX 610 IRON OXIDE BROWN is a synthetic inorganic pigment specifically formulated for the concrete, mortar, and paint industries, possessing high color strength and opacity. Obtained through the precise blending or direct synthesis of red, yellow, and black iron oxides, this product exhibits excellent dispersion in cement-based systems, providing vibrant and durable brown shades.
Key Advantages
- High Alkali Resistance: Unaffected by the alkaline environment during cement hardening, it does not compromise concrete strength.
- UV and Weather Resistance: Extremely resistant to sunlight, rain, and atmospheric conditions; it does not fade over time.
- Color Stability: Offers minimal color deviation between batch productions, enabling standardized manufacturing.
- Easy Dispersion: Thanks to its micronized structure, it disperses quickly in the mixture without clumping.
- Environmentally Friendly: Does not contain heavy metals, is non-toxic, and does not harm the environment.
Application Areas
HYROX 610 is safely used in many construction materials requiring an aesthetic appearance:
- Colored concrete paving stones and curbs
- Concrete tiles and facade claddings
- Ready-mix plaster and joint fillers
- Industrial floor coatings
- Rubber and plastic coloring
- Synthetic paints and coatings

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the usage rate in concrete production?
Depending on the desired color shade, it is generally recommended to use between 3% and 6% of the cement weight. Higher ratios (above 10%) may affect concrete strength and are not economical.
How should the pigment be added to concrete?
For optimal homogeneity, it is recommended to dry mix the pigment with dry aggregate and cement for approximately 1-2 minutes, followed by the addition of water.
Does the color fade in outdoor use?
No, HYROX 610 is fully resistant to UV radiation due to its inorganic structure. However, efflorescence (whitening) that may occur in concrete can be perceived as color fading; this condition results from the concrete's chemistry, not the pigment.
