Aquarius Water-Based Fluorescent Violet Mixing Pigment Concentrate - 5kg
Highly concentrated fluorescent violet pigment for the Zodiac™ Aquarius™ water-based ink system, engineered for vibrant fluorescent color development, custom color mixing, and professional textile screen printing.
Characteristics
Aquarius Water Base Fluorescent Violet Mixing Pigment Concentrate is a highly concentrated universal fluorescent pigment designed for use with compatible Zodiac™ Aquarius™ water-based ink bases. It provides a vivid fluorescent violet color for creating bright production colors and custom water-based ink formulations. SPSI offers Aquarius Flo Violet PC in both 1KG and 5KG sizes.
Manufactured by Avient Specialty Inks, the Aquarius pigment concentrate system allows printers to add concentrated color to an appropriate Aquarius base rather than relying on a standalone, ready-to-print ink. Aquarius mixing pigments are designed specifically for use within an ink mixing system and are not intended for standalone use.
The Fluorescent Violet concentrate is especially useful when a brighter, more visually intense violet is required than a conventional pigment can provide. It can be incorporated into compatible Aquarius bases and combined with other Aquarius pigment concentrates when developing custom fluorescent shades and production colors.
For consistent production results, pigment and base should be accurately weighed and thoroughly mixed. The final formulation should be tested on the actual production substrate to confirm color, cure, adhesion, colorfastness, and wash durability before beginning a full production run.

Mix Aquarius Fluorescent Violet PC into the appropriate Zodiac™ Aquarius™ base for the desired printing application. Pigment loading should follow the recommendations for the specific base being used rather than applying one percentage to every Aquarius formulation.
Aquarius Fluorescent Violet may also be combined with other compatible Aquarius pigment concentrates to develop custom fluorescent shades and production colors. Any additional modifiers or additives should follow the recommendations for the selected Aquarius base.
- Stir the Fluorescent Violet Pigment Concentrate thoroughly before weighing or dispensing.
- Accurately weigh both pigment and base for repeatable color formulations.
- Add pigment gradually and mix thoroughly until completely uniform.
- Follow the maximum pigment-loading recommendation for the selected Aquarius base.
- Do not apply one universal pigment percentage across all Aquarius base systems.
- Combine with compatible Aquarius pigments when developing custom fluorescent shades.
- Keep containers properly sealed when not in use.
- Mix stored pigment periodically to help minimize settling.
- Record successful pigment and base mixing ratios for future production batches.
- Test the completed formulation on the actual garment before production.
- Verify finished color, cure, adhesion, colorfastness, and wash durability.
- Follow the mesh, printing, flashing, and curing requirements for the finished Aquarius ink/base formulation.
- Remember that fluorescent colors can vary noticeably depending on substrate color, underbase, ink-film thickness, mesh, and curing conditions.
Aquarius Fluorescent Violet Mixing Pigment Concentrate is not intended to be printed by itself. It should be incorporated into a compatible Zodiac™ Aquarius™ base to produce a finished printing ink.
The selected Aquarius base determines the finished ink's printing characteristics, opacity, hand feel, substrate compatibility, mesh requirements, flashing and curing parameters, adhesion, durability, and overall performance.
Maximum pigment loading varies according to the Aquarius base being used. Follow the recommendations for the specific printing base rather than applying one universal pigment-loading percentage to every formulation.
Because this is a fluorescent pigment, final color appearance can be affected significantly by garment color and the underlying ink layer. Substrate color, underbase, ink-film thickness, mesh, pigment concentration, and curing conditions can all influence the finished fluorescent color.
Production testing is recommended whenever changing the substrate, base, pigment concentration, mesh, underbase, or curing conditions. Always verify the complete formulation for color, cure, adhesion, colorfastness, and wash durability before beginning a full production run.
