About this product range
- Superior quality at an unbeatable value - Excellent for students and beginners - High pigment loads - Thick, oil paint-like textures - Permanent, lightfast finish Blick Studio Acrylics offer an impressive range of features at a stellar value. Unlike most student-grade acrylic colors, they’re produced on a traditional three-roll mill, resulting in denser pigment loads, heightened color intensity, and outstanding covering power. Thick and smooth with an oil-paint-like texture, colors hold their shape on virtually any surface, drying to a lightfast, flexible film.

Dioxazine Violet
- Pigment code
- PV23
- Type
- organic
- Chemical name
- carbazole dioxazine
- Chemical formula
- C34H22Cl2N4O2
- Properties
- Dioxazine Violet is transparent and has very high tinting strength. It is a staining pigment, very dark valued when it is used at full strength. Concentrated, it paints out nearly black, but it mixes with Titanium White to form bright, opaque tints of purple. PV23 produces slightly redder shades than PV37. Because the hue can vary with the conditions of preparation and grinding, it may be offered in red shade, blue shade, and so forth.
- Permanence
- Dioxazine Violet has good lightfastness. There may be some concern about it fading or shifting in color in tints and washes. Some artists have reported that PV37, a molecular variant, is more lightfast than PV23.
- History
- Two molecular variants of Dioxazine Violet, PV23 and PV37, are available. They have similar properties, but mix slightly differently.
- Description
- Dioxazine Purple, Chromothal Violet, Mauve, Carbazole Violet.
