Intense Pigment
Chameleon pearl pigments are coated with a layer of transparent colored pigment on the surface of interference-type pearl particles, which can absorb certain wavelengths of light. This creates a combination pigment that exhibits two different color perceptions when observed in the vertical (direct view) and lateral (especially grazing view almost parallel to the coating) directions. This optical phenomenon is caused by the interference and absorption of incident light by the pigment.
The ability to produce nanoparticles with controllable size and narrow thickness distribution makes transparent SiO2 film a multilayer light. By coating this transparent SiO2 film with a high-reflective metal oxide, we achieve a very pure and brilliant iridescent effect with angle-dependent color-changing properties.
Chameleon pearl pigments have been widely used in various applications, such as vehicle bodies or components, plastic products, furniture, footwear, synthetic leather, automotive paint, premium coatings, handicrafts, sports equipment, high-end apparel, cosmetics, upscale packaging, and the coating industry. Additionally, they can be applied in anti-counterfeiting measures for printed materials.
