The Science Behind Extreme 4-Way Color Travel for SilikMira Xtreme VOYG
Advanced Multi-Layer Optical Engineering
SilikMira Xtreme VOYG achieves its unprecedented 4-way color shift through an advanced structure combining multiple high-refractive index materials. A core of silica and synthetic fluorphlogopite is precisely coated with aluminum powder and titanium dioxide. This multi-layer system manipulates light to create four distinct and visible color flops—Violet, Orange, Yellow, and Green—representing a significant leap beyond traditional duochrome pigments.
Formulating for Maximum Impact
The metallic luster from the encapsulated aluminum powder provides a hyper-reflective base that amplifies the color travel effect, creating a finish that is both intensely chromatic and brilliantly metallic. Its particle size of 10–60 μm is optimized for high coverage and sparkle without introducing excessive texture, enabling smooth, high-impact finishes in pressed powders, liquid suspensions, and nail lacquers.
Key Formulation Benefits
- Market-Leading 4-Way Color Shift: Produces a dramatic and clearly defined Violet–Orange–Yellow–Green color travel effect that sets products apart.
- Intense Metallic Finish: Aluminum powder core delivers a true metallic look with superior reflectivity and saturation compared to standard pearls.
- High Coverage & Chromaticity: Advanced pigment architecture provides opaque coverage and exceptionally vivid color, enabling lower usage levels.
- Broad Application Versatility: Engineered for stability and performance in powders, liquids, and solvent-based systems.
