YInMn Blue

YInMn-Blue is a mixed oxide pigment from the very expensive rare earth yttrium (Y), the extremely rare semi-metal indium (In) and manganese (Mn).
This new pigment is produced in well-defined cycles of reactions at very high temperature. Up until today only small quantities are available. YInMn-Blue is a unique bright and pure blue with a hue new to the color circle between ultramarine blue and dark cobalt blue.

The YInMn-Blue is extremely lightfast, temperature resistant and well opaque. It requires little oil and is well suited for tempera and water colors. Acrylic technique works with the dispersions K 52, K 9 and AC 35, but less in dispersion K 498.

Due to its reflection in the infrared range, colors mixed with YInMn-Blue reach completely new color ranges.
