Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a composite pigment which can be dispersed and made into paint in a manner that saves labor compared with conventional flat emulsion paints, and which can achieve concealing properties and low glossiness (a luster reduction effect) without separately adding a matting agent. This composite pigment contains an inorganic compound and/or an organic compound, and a fixed extender pigment.
Claims11
A composite pigment comprising:
- extender pigment particles comprising barium sulfate;
- and
- an inorganic compound comprising silica,
- the composite pigment in which a plurality of the extender pigment particles are aggregated in a granular shape with the inorganic compound interposed between the particles,
- wherein a content ratio of the extender pigment particles and the inorganic compound in the composite pigment is 0.3 to 3 parts by volume of the inorganic compound to 1 part by volume of the extender pigment particles, and
- wherein the composite pigment having a diameter on cumulative 50% (D50) in a volume cumulative distribution measured by a laser diffraction/scattering-type particle size distribution measuring apparatus is 1 μm or more and 15 μm or less.
A method for producing a composite pigment comprising:
- adjusting a pH of a slurry containing an inorganic compound source and extender pigment particles so that an inorganic compound derived from the inorganic compound source is precipitated to fix the extender pigment particles,
- the composite pigment in which a plurality of the extender pigment particles are aggregated in a granular shape with the inorganic compound interposed between the particles,
- wherein the extender pigment particles comprise barium sulfate and the inorganic compound comprises silica,
- wherein a content ratio of the extender pigment particles and the inorganic compound in the composite pigment is 0.3 to 3 parts by volume of the inorganic compound to 1 part by volume of the extender pigment particles, and
- wherein the composite pigment having a diameter on cumulative 50% (D50) in a volume cumulative distribution measured by a laser diffraction/scattering-type particle size distribution measuring apparatus is 1 μm or more and 15 μm or less.
A matting pigment consisting essentially of:
- a composite pigment in which a plurality of extender pigment particles are aggregated in a granular shape with an inorganic compound interposed between the particles,
- wherein the extender pigment particles comprise barium sulfate and the inorganic compound comprises silica,
- wherein a content ratio of the extender pigment particles and the inorganic compound in the composite pigment is 0.3 to 3 parts by volume of the inorganic compound to 1 part by volume of the extender pigment particles, and
- wherein the matting pigment having a diameter on cumulative 50% (D50) in a volume cumulative distribution measured by a laser diffraction/scattering-type particle size distribution measuring apparatus is 1 μm or more and 15 μm or less.
