Abstract
This paper shows different possibilities of manufacturing silver-grey mica pigments. One example, the mica-ilmenite pigments Iriodin® 9602 WR II and Iriodin® 9612 WR II, are discussed in detail concerning the production process and their chemical and physical characteristics. The colorimetric data of the new mica pigments are discussed and the first weathering data presented. The results show that these pigments give the color chemist a new styling tool for the grey and silver-grey color range. Through the addition of transparent organic pigments brillant and deep metallic-like colors can be achieved. A second type of mica pigment, black magnetite on mica, is presented in its basic chemical structure and its potential use for the color chemist.
