Metallic Pigments In Polymers

Publisher Rapra Technology
Number Of Pages: 252
Publication Date: 1999-09-30
Book Description:
There has been an upsurge of interest recently in the use of metallic pigments. Metallic pigments are found in many objects that we use everyday from household items and sports goods to the coatings on scratch cards. Colour is one of the key factors that influences a customer buying a retail product. In the `fashion markets', visual appearance is particularly important and tends to come well ahead of functionality. It is in these markets that metal pigments come into their own.
Metallic Pigments In Polymers is the ideal basic guide for anyone who is about to start working with metallic pigments but also contains a wealth of information for those who already use these pigments. It is hoped that this book will help existing users to achieve the best possible effects with metallic pigments and encourage those who have not yet used them to explore their potential to add value to their products.
Subjects covered are:
Introduction and history
Metal pigment types
Manufacture * Pigment characteristics
Delivery forms * Comparison of mass pigmentation and coating
Mass pigmentation application characteristics * Flow and weld lines in mass pigmented applications
Formulation of mass pigmented polymers
Conversion processes
Applications of metal pigmented coatings
Powder coatings
Non-coloristic applications
Health, safety and handling
Each chapter is fully referenced, extensively illustrated and also includes a bibliography.
