- Type
- organic, disazo
- Chemical formula
- C36H32Cl4N6O8
- Properties
- Diarylide Yellow is a semi-opaque, moderately staining, intense deep reddish yellow pigment with good tinting strength.
- Permanence
- Diarylide Yellow 83 has very good lightfastness and permanence. However, it can fade in tints, so some artists do not consider it suitable as an artists' color.

Diarylide Yellow 83 is reputed to be one of the most permanent of the entire group.
- Toxicity
- Diarylide Yellow has no significant acute hazards, but chronic hazards have not been well studied.
- History
- Diarylide Yellow comes from a family of azo pigments called Diarylide. These yellow hued pigments were developed around 1940 and are very important in printing inks.

Brown Ochre
- Pigment code
- PY43
- Chemical name
- iron(III)-oxide, partly hydrated
- Chemical formula
- Fe2O3(• H2O)
- Properties
- Brown Ochre provides artists with earthtones from cream to brown and is a dull, dark variety of Yellow Ochre. Its transparency varies widely from opaque shades to more transparent ones, which are valued for their use as glazes. It has good hiding power, produces a quick drying paint, and can be safely mixed with other pigments. The highest quality Brown Ochre comes from Cyprus, where it is yellow in its raw form and is roasted to get the deeper brown-red varieties that result when water is removed. (See Yellow Ochre, PY42/43.)
- Permanence
- Brown Ochre has excellent permanence.
- Toxicity
- Brown Ochre is non-toxic.
- History
- Ochre comes from the Greek word ochros, meaning pale yellow. It has been used since prehistoric times, and evidence of its use has been found in some of the earliest known cave paintings in Lascaux, France. It has also been called Goethite, after the German philosopher and mineralogist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832).
- Description
- Goethite, Yellow Ochre.
