The helmet is composed of multiple parts, including the shell, lining, drawstring, nylon net, decals and other parts. As the new generation of consumer groups gradually become the main force of consumption, consumption concepts and habits have undergone major changes, and high-quality, stylish, and personalized mid-to-high-end safety helmets have gradually become the mainstream of the market. And color is the best carrier to convey fashion and personality. Below we will introduce three effect pigments used in helmet appearance, goggles and appearance decoration in detail.

Three kinds of metallic effect pigments commonly used on helmets

1. Non-leafing aluminum paste

Aluminum pigments have unique flashing, bright and floppy effects. According to the scale shape, thickness, regularity, light absorption and reflection effect, it can be divided into three types: metal type, strong flash type and silver dollar type. In addition to helmets, it can also be used in various metal flash paints, plastic paints and wood coatings such as construction machinery, power tools, automobiles, etc.

2. Mirror effect aluminum paste and laser aluminum paste

Mirror effect aluminum paste, using high-purity aluminum as raw material, using unique vapor phase metallized pigment process (VMPs) production, the average particle size D50 is between 5-12 microns, the thickness of the scales is nano-level, the surface covering power and brightness are great , A small amount can obtain excellent chrome plating effect (that is, mirror effect). Because it has a mirror effect comparable to that of silver vapor-deposited sheets, it can replace electroplating, and has large covering power and simple construction.

Laser aluminum paste is an optical color-changing pigment. The laser paint and laser ink prepared with it can show different colors with the change of the observation angle, that is, the phenomenon of different angles. It has an obvious dynamic color-changing effect and appears under direct light. Bright and vivid "rainbow phenomenon".

In addition to helmets, the above two products are used in surface decoration of automobiles, home appliances, mobile phones, toys, handicrafts, packaging (cosmetics, wine, cigarette packs), home decoration, sports equipment (bicycles, fishing rods), leather, wallpaper, etc. Caijing glass and furniture panels have a wide range of uses.

3. Pearlescent Pigment Chameleon Series

The pearl pigments of the Chameleon series adopt a new high-density multi-layer coating technology to achieve the effect of random color. The multi-layer effect pigment is an optical pigment that produces short-wave and long-wave optical pigments in various colors depending on the angle of the incident light due to the difference in the speed of light transmitted by the high-refraction and low-refractive media on the same substrate. When applied to products, it can obtain brilliant and changeable color effects .
