Pigment Particle Size and Hiding Power

Application Note Automotive Test Systems | Process & Environmental | Medical | Semiconductor | Scientific Explore the future Pigment Particle Size and Hiding Power AN209 Application Note Particle size is intimately related to hiding power in pigments. Due to its speed and wide size measurement range, laser diffraction is an ideal tool for tracking the grinding process and therefore controlling the resulting pigment performance. Laser diffraction results rapidly tell the manufacturer when a product is at the right particle size or distribution width and, therefore, allows optimum use of manufacturing equipment. Introduction Color is critical. Appropriately used, it can give a clear message in seconds, as in a red stop sign. Or, it can provide pleasure to millions as in the
