Abstract
The present invention provides a new and improved color concentrate comprising from about 10% to about 30% by weight metal particles component, from about 1% to about 15% by weight colorant material and from about 60% to about 90% by weight thermoplastic polymer. The metal particles component comprises aluminum particles having both a spherical and a lenticular shape. The concentrate can be utilized to color thermoplastic polymers and produce a matte metallic effect.
