Technical Profile: SilikMira Ice YGB Flake Technology
Engineering Large-Particle Color Travel
SilikMira Ice YGB utilizes a multi-layer optical design on a transparent silica and borosilicate flake substrate. Precision deposits of Titanium Dioxide and Tin Oxide form an interference stack that drives dramatic color travel from yellow to green to blue depending on viewing angle and light incidence.
The extra-large particle size (200–500 µm) amplifies reflectivity and chromatic shift, producing a bold, glitter-like appearance that reads clearly even at distance and under stage or studio lighting.
‘Crushable’ Flakes for Texture Transformation
A key innovation of SilikMira Ice YGB is its engineered, ‘crushable’ behavior. While the flakes appear large and chunky in the package, they are designed to break down under gentle pressure during application. This enables transformative textures that start as a statement flake and blend into a smoother, high-shine shimmer for a unique sensorial experience.
