I-iron oxide pigment inemibala emininzi, ukusuka kumthubi ukuya kubomvu, omdaka ukuya kumnyama.I-iron oxide ebomvu luhlobo lwe-iron oxide pigment.Inamandla amahle okufihla kunye namandla okuthambisa, ukumelana neekhemikhali, ukugcinwa kombala, ukusasazeka, kunye nexabiso eliphantsi.I-iron oxide ebomvu isetyenziselwa ukuveliswa kweepeyinti zomgangatho kunye neepeyinti zaselwandle.Ngenxa yokusebenza kwayo okumangalisayo kokuchasana nomhlwa, ikwayimathiriyeli ekrwada ephambili yokwenza iipeyinti ezichasene nomhlwa kunye neeprimers.Xa i-iron oxide particles ebomvu iphantsi kwi-≤0.01μm, amandla okufihla i-pigment kwi-organic medium iya kuncitshiswa kakhulu.Olu hlobo lwe-pigment lubizwa ngokuba yi-iron oxide ecacileyo, esetyenziselwa ukwenza ipeyinti ecacileyo enemibala okanye ipeyinti ye-metallic flash,.Isiphumo singcono kunokugcinwa kombala we-organic pigments.
