What are Pigments?
Pigments are coloured substances that are used to impart colour to various materials, such as paints, inks, plastics, cosmetics, textiles, and many other products. They are an essential part of the world of colour, providing the vibrant hues and shades that we see in everyday life. Here are some key characteristics and aspects of pigments:
- Colouration: Pigments are primarily used for colouration. They absorb certain wavelengths of visible light and reflect or transmit others, giving rise to the perception of colour. The colour of a pigment is determined by its chemical composition and the way it interacts with light.
- Solid Particles: Unlike dyes, which are typically soluble in the medium they are used in, pigments are usually solid, finely ground particles that are dispersed in a liquid, paste, or powder form. These particles remain suspended in the medium and provide colour by scattering and reflecting light.
- Opacity and Coverage: Pigments can vary in opacity. Some pigments are transparent, allowing light to pass through them to some extent, while others are opaque and block light. The opacity of a pigment influences its coverage and ability to hide underlying surfaces.
- Chemical Composition: Pigments come in a wide range of chemical compositions. They can be organic or inorganic, and their properties depend on their chemical structure. For example, titanium dioxide is a common inorganic white pigment, while phthalocyanine blue is an organic blue pigment.
