Aluminium silver paste is a very unique effect pigment, which can be divided into floating type, non-floating type, electroplating silver, imitation silver plating, young silver, silver flashing silver, medium flashing silver, coarse flashing silver, high flashing silver, strong flashing. Silver and so on. It consists of a very smooth and extremely thin scaly structure with high hiding power, fine tinting strength, clear color, fusion density and white light, which makes the surface coating elegant and soft like a mirror. Optical metal effect.


Classification of aluminum silver paste:


All aluminum pigments can be divided into two types, floating and non-floating. In a grinding process, the replacement of one fatty acid by another will give the aluminum pigment a completely different character and appearance. Because the appearance of each type of aluminum sheet is different from other types, the technical parameters affecting the application formula and end use of the product will also vary depending on the desired effect.


First, floating type


In floating aluminum pigments, aluminum sheets are oriented adjacent to the surface of the paint film to form an opaque silver film. This opaque property is the main factor that makes floating aluminum pigments an important functional raw material. Floating aluminum pigments are generally used. It is mainly used for roof coating, maintenance, anti-corrosion coatings, reflective coatings, imitation coatings and commercial coatings with high protection requirements.


The appearance of the floating aluminum pigment varies depending on the thickness of the particles, and can range from a rough, white appearance to a dull, highly reflective or mirror-like effect. The coarse-grained floating aluminum pigment has a lower hiding power and a rougher structure, but the whitest and brightest coating can be obtained. Conversely, fine-grained floating aluminum pigments have the greatest hiding power, the smoothest structure and highly reflective coatings.


Second, non-floating


Non-floating aluminum paste has excellent coloration and strong hiding power. It is widely used in industrial coatings, auto parts coatings and decorative coatings. Non-floating pigments are uniformly distributed throughout the film. The appearance of the film is different from that of the floating aluminum pigment. Because it can be mixed with various pigments and is suitable for various systems, it has a unique effect on industrial coating. However, any pigment or dye must be transparent when used with non-floating aluminum pigments to achieve a realistic metallic effect. Non-floating aluminum pigments come in a wide variety of colors, from low to high, from coarse to fine, from white to dark. Non-floating aluminum pigments have a variety of acid resistance levels, which can reduce the impact of industrial smoke, acid rain and other adverse environments on the coating.
