The difference between Pearlescent Pigments and Metal Flakes
Before pearlescent pigments the only way
was to use very fine thin metal flakes so light striking them is  reflected from multiple point
sources creating a metallic sheen. Metal flakes are opaque so the sheen effect is caused
only from the platelets found at the surface of the coating.
Metal flakes and pearlescent
pigments have a similar physical
shape - very thin flakes or platelets.
However while metal flakes or
opaque pearlescent pigments are
transparent therefore the effect is
quite different.
When used in a transparent or semi -
transparent coating light penetrates
through the pearlescent pigments
interacting with neighboring platelets
causing additional multiple point
source reflections and colours not
possible with metal flakes.
Pearlescent pigments develop colour
through interference between light
rays reflecting at specular angles
from the top and bottom surfaces of
the metal-oxide layer. By varying the
coating thickness, these colors can
be gold, red, blue, or green. The pigments lose color
intensity as viewing angle shifts to
non-specular angles. In addition, a
second color is transmitted through
the pigment platelet that is
complementary to the reflected one.
