Pearlescent Pigments
Pearlescent pigments are pearly and beautiful!
Pearlescent pigments are partially transparent powders created from combining layers of mineral mica with metal oxides and rutile (a natural mica) titanium dioxide. The different effects available range from a soft shimmer or a bright sparkle. The results depend on particle size and the thickness of metal oxides layers that make up the pearlescent particle. Ultimately, these factors alter how light is refracted on the particle surface at the different layers of the metal oxides.
Natural mica can have impurities but SFXC Pearlescent pigments are flawless in clarity. Not only that, but these pigments are heat and weather stable, and have a very good dispersion rate to boot! Our Pearlescent powders can be used with both water-based and solvent based mediums. Screen printing onto fabrics? We stock Pearlescent Binder!
When using our Glitter Pearlescent pigments, a silver/grey lustre optical effect can be achieved if it is combined with Carbon Black pigment. A bright silver/white effect can be created when mixed with an aluminium paste.
These products can be mixed with translucent resins, silicones, acrylics and plastics such as PS, PP, PE, PVC
