Color Fading in the coatings

Gradual changes in color or fading are primarily due to the color pigments used in the coating. Lighter coatings typically are formulated with inorganic pigments.These inorganic pigments tend to be duller and weaker in tinting strength but are very stable and not easily broken down by exposure to UV light. To achieve darker colors, it is sometimes necessary to formulate with organic pigments. In some instances, these pigments may be susceptible to UV light degradation. If a certain organic pigmentRead More …

Pearlescent Pigments

Pearlescent Pigments

Pearlescent Pigments Traditional pearlescent pigments consist of a high-refractive-index metal oxide layer coated onto a transparent, low-refractive-index substrate such as natural mica. This layering structure interacts with light to produce constructive and destructive interference patterns in both the reflected and transmitted light, which we see as color. This technology has been extended to other synthetic substrates such as glass, alumina, silica and synthetic mica. Various effects range from satin and pearl luster, to sparkle with high chromatic values, and hue-shiftingRead More …
