Aluminum Pigments for Plastic Applications
Aluminum Pigments for Plastic Applications covers metallic pigments assessed for dispersion and survival during melt processing. Pigments are dispersed color-bearing particles; crystal structure, surface treatment and dispersion affect the resulting shade and performance.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
The distinguishing feature is metallic pigments assessed for dispersion and survival during melt processing. Compare flake size, shape and surface treatment, then evaluate orientation after application. Mixing shear can damage flakes; binder and drying behavior alter alignment. Powder appearance does not establish hiding power, sparkle or corrosion behavior in the cured film.
What turns activity into demand
Accepted paint, plastic and ink output consumes pigment through formulation loading, dispersion yield and target shade.
The commercial boundary
Separate dry pigment, treated powder, dispersion and finished coating; chemical-family and color categories may overlap.
Why can equal metallic pigment loading give a different finish?
The distinguishing feature is metallic pigments assessed for dispersion and survival during melt processing. Compare flake size, shape and surface treatment, then evaluate orientation after application. Mixing shear can damage flakes; binder and drying behavior alter alignment. Powder appearance does not establish hiding power, sparkle or corrosion behavior in the cured film.
