Colorants
Surface coating or dyeing, Introducing Chromophores, Mass Coloration
Dyes: Soluble Bleeding, Migration, Reactive, Poor light fastness, Lack of
heat stability
Pigments: Insoluble, Heat Stability, Light Fastness, Dispersability,
Chemically inert
Pigment Dispersion Lack of dust, handling ease
Optimum particle size for color value, tinting strength, transparency,
opacity characteristics
Inorganic : Unreactive Stable TiO2, Metal Oxides, Metallic Salts
Elemental : Carbon Black
Organic: Based on chemical structure Bright
Phthalocyanines :Stability to light, heat, Chemical agents
OPTICAL PROPERTIES MODIFIER
Fluorescent Pigments: Fluorescent dyes incorporated into thermoset resin
matrix, cured, ground
Absorb in U.V. or Visible light & reemit at other visual wavelengths.
U.V. absorption of additives inhibit the efficiency
Brighter color reflected than incident light
Luminescent & Phosphorescent Pigments: ZnS, CdS & ZnO Crystals
Store U.V. or Visible light & reemit visible light of weak intensity for short
duration when all light sources removed. Fragile, liable to fracture
Optical Brighteners:
Absorb in near U.V. ~ 350-380nm & reemit in the blue end of visible spectrum
~ 430-450nm
High degree of purity & Excellent dispersion essential prerequisites
Light reflected by an object
Diffuse Reflectance at λ (DR) λ = -----------------------------------------------------
Light reflected by an ideal white surface
MgO reflects light radiation almost completely
DR of PS WITH 0.5% TiO2 decreases from longer to shorter wavelengths
DR of Optical Brighteners in shorter wavelength region exceeds DR of MgO
Additives capable of U.V. absorption has an adverse effect
