Special effects of pearlescent pigments

Pearlescent PigmentsSpecial effects (metallic effects)

Pearlescent pigment is a special pigment with pearl luster, which can also express aluminum powder, copper powder, alloy powder, etc.Metallic PigmentsCompared with metallic pigments, pearlescent pigments have the following advantages:

● It is non-conductive and is an insulator. During high-pressure and high-temperature processing, there is no danger of sparks due to electrical charge.

● Good acid and alkali resistance, and will not change color.

● Insoluble in water, but dispersible in water, suitable for the processing of water-based products.

● High temperature resistance up to 800℃, no spontaneous combustion, no combustion support.

When pearlescent pigments are mixed with transparent materials such as plastics, coatings, and printing inks, the pigment particles are arranged parallel to the surface, and the multiple reflections and refractions of light can produce a beautiful pearl luster. When pearlescent pigments are mixed with carbon black or transparent colorants, a metallic luster similar to gold, silver, copper, and aluminum can be obtained. When iridescent series pearlescent pigments are mixed with carbon black or transparent colorants, a very unique metallic luster will be produced.
