Detail: Characteristics of Forward Pearlescent Pigments
Forward Pearlescent Pigment is a kind of sandwich crystal made of natural
mica (or other nonmetal wafers) coated with one layer or multilayer of metal
or nonmetal oxides whose thickness is controlled precisely. Relying on
reflecting and refracting rays to create different color phases and luster, it
reapperars elegant luster and flowery colors of natural pearls, shells,
butterflies and metals.
Pearlescent pigment is a kind of inorganic pigment whose color is pseudo
color mainly produced by light interference of metal or nonmetal oxide
coating layer. There is no coloring matter, therefore no color change or
removal will happen.
Forward Pearlescent Pigment is suitable to be used in the open air due to its
characteristics of acid resistance, alkali resistance, high temperature
resistance and high stability of light sensitization; it can be used in
packaging materials of food and raw material of cosmetics because it does
not dissolve in water, but disperses easily in water and other solvents.
What¡s more, it is harmless to human body.
Elegant pearl luster can be produced by mixing Forward Pearlescent
Pigment with transparent pigments or dyes; avoid mixed use with opaque
pigments or those with excellent covering power, such as Titania and ferric
oxide, which will affect the pearl luster.
Forward Pearlescent Pigment is a kind of flat powder. Its particles size is an
important index. The bigger the diameter is, the brighter the pearl luster is
and the weaker covering power is, vice versa.
