Flake Glass for Special Effects
ACF-105
ACF-105/Special Effects was specifically developed for its visual appearance, but it still provides the same strength and anti-corrosive properties as all of our glass flake products.
Typical uses: Our ACF-105 glass flake was developed for the effects market. We were able to discover an extremely specific particle size distribution, capable of providing a refractive index desired by numerous consumer markets. Our ACF-105 has the ideal aspect ratio, providing a glimmer effect like that of a diamond. Typically, ACF-105 is used as a substrate and is coated with metal alloy or compound, such as Silver or Titanium Dioxide to produce a pigment/product that is truly remarkable.
Applications for ACF 105 include:
- Substrates for decorative or cosmetic products
- Automotive and Marine Paints
- Coated and used as a pigment
- Used by artists and painters worldwide
- Various labeling and wrapping prints
- Fashion
- Building and Construction enhancement
