Engelhard offers new
pigments for powder coatings
Engelhard Corp. now offers Cyclo luster pigments suited for powder coating applications. These white pearlescent, titanium dioxide-coated pigments help eliminate the potential buildup of pearl pigment on spray gun tips, which enables formulators to increase the amount of pearl pigment in their coating formulations by up to 10%, according to the company. This offers more flexibility to formulators attempting to match the color of liquid coatings and new styling options in metallic anodized finishes. Cyclo luster pigments can be incorporated into formulations by dry blending under typical conditions used in the powder coatings industry.
