Performance & Formulation Insights for Diamond Variable OB 64
Color-Travel Effect Through TiO2 and Iron Oxide Coating
Diamond Variable OB 64 creates its orange-to-blue shifting effect through a combination of titanium dioxide and iron oxide coating on calcium sodium borosilicate glass. This multi-layer approach produces a vivid color travel that shifts dynamically with viewing angle. The 20–500 μm particle range delivers bold, chunky sparkle with dramatic color play.
The TiO2 layer enhances reflectivity and brightness, while the iron oxide layer contributes warm color tones. Together they create a complex, multi-dimensional color travel effect on the ultra-clear borosilicate glass substrate.
Formulation Advantages
The borosilicate glass substrate provides superior clarity compared to mica, enabling the color travel to appear more vivid and saturated. The smooth glass surface ensures a comfortable skin feel across application types.
The large particle size is optimized for statement-level products. Use in clear suspension systems or as toppers to maximize the visual effect.
