Performance & Formulation Insights for Sachet MV Blue
Superior Duochrome Effect on a Synthetic Substrate
Sachet MV Blue achieves its distinctive violet-to-blue color travel via precise deposition of Titanium Dioxide and Manganese Violet on an ultra-smooth synthetic fluorphlogopite (synthetic mica) substrate. This engineered substrate delivers higher purity, clarity, and reflectivity than natural mica, producing a cleaner, more brilliant color expression with a dramatic interference effect that shifts with viewing angle.
The synthetic platelet morphology enhances light refraction and reduces background haze, enabling a more defined duochrome shift and higher chroma for high-impact cosmetic effects.
Enhanced Performance with Surface Treatment
This pigment is treated with Triethoxycaprylylsilane (TES), a functional silane that hydrophobically modifies the particle surface. The TES treatment improves compatibility with oils and silicones, enhances skin adhesion for longer wear, and imparts a distinctly smooth, creamy feel.
Formulators will see improved press-ability in powders and better stability and payoff in anhydrous and liquid systems, enabling easier processing and more uniform application.
