1. the properties of pearlescent pigments

1. Optical properties The core properties of

pearlescent pigments are their unique optical properties, which can reflect and interfere with light, thereby producing pearly luster and color. This effect is produced by the thin layer structure of the pigment surface, which is formed by the alternating stack of mica flakes of high refractive index and air layers of low refractive index. When light hits the surface of the pigment, reflection and interference occur to form color and luster.

2. Physicochemical properties

pearlescent pigments are usually supplied in powder or slurry form, with good dispersion and stability. They also have excellent heat resistance, weather resistance and chemical resistance, and can maintain stable properties and color under various harsh conditions. The use of
