  • A.Solvent
  • B.Lacquer
  • C.Binder
  • D.Pigment

Answer: D

Phthalocyanine is a pigment.

Copper phthalocyanine and its chlorinated forms are the most important blue and green organic pigments. They are insoluble, very stable to light and heat, and widely used in automotive and house paints, printing inks and plastics, so they are met often in forensic paint and ink comparison.

A solvent dissolves the binder and evaporates as the paint dries. A binder (such as an alkyd or acrylic resin) holds the pigment particles together and to the surface, and a lacquer is a type of finished coating. Phthalocyanine supplies colour, which is the role of a pigment.
