EKO-Flex Mica substrate series
Introducing our new speckle effect white and black series WT500-20LW (White) and BM505-20LW (Black) - specially developed to deliver high quality speckled appearance with outstanding durability for demanding applications. These innovative pigment concentrates are ideal for adding a visually striking effect while ensuring excellent performance in exterior as well as demanding interior applications.
KEY FEATURES:
• Speckle Effect Appearance
Distinctive white or black speckle effect based on responsibly sourced natural mica substrates.
• High Durability Particle Colouration:
- WT500-20LW: White shade achieved by strong attachment of TiO2 to the mica surface using SiO2
using a proprietary process.
- BM505-20LW: Black shade achieved by strong attachment of Carbon Black to the mica surface using SiO2
using a proprietary process.
• Opaque & Clean Colouration:
Uniform dispersion of TiO2/Carbon Black ensure a consistent, high opacity finish.
FORM & COMPATIBILITY:
• Supplied as a PE-based concentrate with 80% pigment loading.
• Also available in SAN carrier for use with transparent, engineering or high-temperature polymers.
PROCESSING TEMPERTURES & CONDITIONS:
• Processing Temperature: Pigments are stable up to 300°C (570°F) depending on choice of carrier and
polymer being used.
• Time Sensitivity: Recommended to keep residence time at a high temperatures as short as possible.
• Shear Sensitivity: Avoid high shear to maintain the pigment particle size and shape.
DOSAGE RECOMMENDATION:
• Use at 0.5-2% in the final application for optimal effect.
REGULATORY & PERFORMANCE ADVANTAGES:
• Excellent UV resistance and thermal stability.
• Very good regulatory compliance for a wide range of applications.
