CQV - Pearlescent Pigment Product Line
CQV Co., Ltd., is a Korean based supplier that specializes in the manufacture and development of effect pigment technologies. Formerly known as Engelhard Korea, part of the Mearl/Engelhard Corporation, CQV was established after the purchase of Engelhard by BASF in 1996 and has been supplying the global effect pigment market ever since. CQV products were previously distributed through Sun Chemical under their private label, but is now sold under the CQV brand of products. CQV is considered by many multinational companies as a reliable partner that prides itself on state of the art R&D and technical support.
CQV product lines include natural and synthetic mica, borosilicate glass, and platy alumina.
Batch to batch consistency, high luster and brightness, ease of application, chemical stability, and unique colors are hallmarks of the CQV line of products. CQV offers many different product types for industrial, exterior, and cosmetic grade applications.
Pearl pigments are utilized in various applications including high performance coatings such as automotive OEM and exterior architectural coatings. They can also be incorporated into general decorative metal finishes, plastics, inks, flooring, artificial marble, synthetic leather, hobby, and craft products.
Of particular note are the products in the AdamasTM line. This is a series of effect pigments based on platy alumina (Al2O3), that are subsequently coated with various highly refractive metal oxides to create a wide range of intense sparkling colors.
CQV has their own patented technology allowing for the creation of platelets of uniform thickness, surface smoothness, and narrow particle size distributions, which generate colors of exceptional depth, purity, and sparkle. AdamasTM is available in two particle size ranges: 5-30 micron (K-fraction) and 9-45 micron (S fraction). These come in nine different colors including white, 5 interference, and 3 metallic shades.
