    Although used for similar purposes, transparent colors and image masks do not permit the smooth blending of the superimposed image pixels with those of the background (only whole image pixels or whole background pixels allowed).

    The pigments obtainable at the market possess a narrow particle size distribution of about 5 to 30 μm as well as a high aspect ratio. The sparkle effect referred to above has its origin in the optimized thickness of all layers in the pigment structure, including the Al 2 O 3 substrate. Analytical investigations show that the thickness range of ...
