Inorganic pigments market are broadly utilized in paints and coatings, printing inks, plastics, individual consideration items, and development materials. They give shading to paints, inks, plastics, papers, beauty care products, rubbers, solid squares, tiles, and so on. Inorganic pigments give lively hues to substrates, accordingly making items look engaging. Inorganic color atoms contain electrons that can accomplish distinctive vitality levels when presented to light. Inorganic pigments have the capacity to reflect or retain light of explicit wavelengths. This outcomes in the presence of hues.
Inorganic pigments are manufactured by using petrochemical sources or natural resources. These are the oldest pigments used across the world. Based on phenomenon of refraction, these pigments provide iridescent effect, complex effect, pearlescent effect, metallic effect, and florescent effect. They possess properties such as good color strength, heat and light stability, opacity, weather and chemical resistance, and durability to substrates. Inorganic pigments are more durable than organic pigments. They have the capacity to hold color for a longer period of time. Additionally, they can withstand exposure to chemicals and sunlight for a longer period of time, as they contain mineral compounds. Inorganic pigments offer high abrasion resistance. This is driving the demand for these pigments. Furthermore, they have the tendency to become opaque, due to their capability of making the molecule highly rigid. This helps in preventing light from entering objects.
