Paliocrom Brilliant Orange L 2850 is the first of a new generation of effect pigments from BASF . Exceptional brilliance and ultra-high chroma enable the creation of novel designs in the orange to red shade area, according to the company. This innovative pigment is based on iron-oxide-coated aluminum platelets of the thin silver dollar type, which have very fine particle size distribution. The result is a brilliant effect, combined with ultra-high chroma and lightness, as well as excellent hiding power offering scope for a variety of styling options. With its pronounced flop characteristics (light/dark contrast) and strong sparkle, the product allows subtle variations in coatings design. Paliocrom Brilliant Orange L 2850 is suitable for both solvent- and water-based systems. Its main applications are high-performance automotive coatings and industrial coatings for computers, telecommunications equipment and electrical appliances. In combination with other effects or colored pigments, the product provides opportunities for a wide variety of different stylings covering the entire color spectrum.
