A pigment is a colored substance that is added to materials to give it a specific color or hue. In the context of plastics, pigments are often added to provide color and enhance the aesthetic appeal of plastic products.
Pigments are derived from natural sources, such as minerals and plant extracts, or can be synthesized chemically. The majority of inorganic pigments are brighter and last longer than organic ones.
Pigments can have different effects on the physical and mechanical properties of plastics, such as tensile strength, elongation, and impact resistance. In general, the addition of pigment to plastic can decrease its overall mechanical properties due to the added weight and reduced transparency of the plastic. However, pigments can also improve the performance of plastics by adding UV stability, reducing oxidation, and enhancing chemical resistance. In addition to providing color, pigments can also be used to create special effects such as metallic or pearlescent finishes. Overall, the use of pigments in plastics is important for creating products that are visually appealing, but it must be done carefully to ensure that the desired physical and mechanical properties are not compromised.
