(SS series for Chrome finish decorative dustings & coatings, Plastic coatings, Plastic master batches, Powder coatings, Screen printings, Textile coatings applications etc)

(LPSH series is highly brilliant, polished superfine leafing aluminium powder which has a specially controlled particle size range in corn flake morphology. Its controlled particle size, narrow PSD and properly oriented flakes gives smooth finish without protrusion makes the surface smooth. Due to its enhanced leafing, high coverage, distinct orientation and parallel alignment to the surface of coating film, it can provide strong, high brilliant metallic effects and hence suitable for powder coating, plastic master batches, paper coatings, textile printings, printing inks etc).
