Silberline’s Extra Sparkle Silvet 600-10E1 grades use a spherical pigment particle that improves flow line appearance
of the flake-top, bottom and broken-edge sides. Since the flakes are perfectly flat each particle gives a distinct ‘pop’ flash when viewed at the right angle. Because of the dimensional control on the flakes, they resist the tendency to create flow lines and will randomly orientate. This random orientation and flat surfaces give a twinkling effect – giving rise to the name Starlight,” says Marketing Manager Mark Ryan. “This MicroMirror technology of pure-metallic silver
masterbatch applications specifically requiring food contact approval and stability of these type of special effect pigments. The number of products currently on the market offering opacity and reflection is limited.” US-based Shepherd Color developed its Starlight
line to provide a range of special effect products based on silver-coated glass flakes. “The glass flakes are totally flat and the silver is coated onto all the surfaces
on a glass substrate gives a distinctive look. A range of glass thicknesses and particle sizes provide a range of effects from the distinctive ‘pop’ of the larger PSD and thickness Starlight FL105 to the thinner and smaller FX15 with a more sophisticated look,” he says. Accord- ing to the company, because the pigments provide a similar effect but with different flake sizes, the products can be used in multilayer constructions to create an enhanced illusion of depth. This is achieved by using the smaller flakes on the background layers and larger nearer the surface. “The highly engineered silver on glass MicroMirror
technology is also very durable,” says Ryan. “The silver on the surface of the glass is specially passivated to
