Duocrome Series

Duocrome Iridescent Colors are lustrous pigments that produce a distinctive two-color look, creating striking effects in many cosmetic and personal care products. The interplay between background and highlight colors in Ducrome iridescent colors is truly unique and cannot be duplicated by any combination of interference pigments and conventional colorants. These pigments contain titanium dioxide-coated mica particles that are then coated with a thin layer of colored pigment. Light interference from the titanium dioxide layer produces a reflection color seen as a colored highlight, while the colored pigment imparts a background color by light absorption. When the pigment is used, the colored highlight contrasts with the background color. The Ducrome iridescent colors available provide a range of two-color effects.
