High-gloss ALPASTE®

Outline

High-gloss ALPASTE® products are aluminium pigments with good design properties that are coin shaped and have a smooth surface. They are used in applications such as the top coat for automobiles, plastic coatings and printing ink, especially in applications where a strong metallic design is favored.

Features

  • ・76 Series
    This is the most widely used of the high-gloss ALPASTE® products. It is characteristic for its ease of use.
  • ・56 Series
    This series has a narrow range of particle diameters and the gloss is improved from the 76 Series.
  • ・54 Series
    The particle diameters in this series are very uniform and the particle diameters are large, so a high glossiness can be achieved. It is therefore called shining flakes.
  • ・TCR® Series
    This series has a small aspect ratio (particle diameter / thickness) and high mechanical strength, so it is excellent at withstanding circulation.
  • ・63 Series
    This series has even finer particle diameters than the 56 series and exhibits excellent gloss.
  • ・46 Series
    These are the highest quality of the High-gloss ALPASTE® products and have an excellent metallic feeling and feeling of fineness.

In addition, we can also propose "Moonlight Silver®" made with the pulverization method for applications where an extremely metallic finish like plating is required.
