Silver Rocket Metallic Pigment Co., Ltd. announced the release of its upgraded Automotive Specialty Aluminium Paste series, designed specifically for high-end OEM automotive coatings, refinish systems, coil coatings, and plastic applications. Engineered with refined in-house spherical aluminium powder, the new lineup delivers superior brightness, narrow particle size distribution, and excellent orientation performance.
The enhanced production process allows each aluminium particle to maintain a smooth surface and consistent diameter-to-thickness ratio. This results in higher reflectivity and a smoother metallic finish—two essential elements for modern automotive aesthetics.
The product range includes multiple grades with varying particle sizes to meet diverse coating requirements. Key performance indicators include Non-Volatile Content (±2%), Average Particle Size (D50), and tight screen analysis control at 325 mesh.
| Grades | Non-Volatile Content (±2%) | Average Particle Size (μm, D50) | Screen Analysis (325 mesh %) | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ZQ-405 | 70 | 5 | 0.5 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-406 | 70 | 6 | 0.5 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-407 | 70 | 7 | 0.5 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-408 | 70 | 9 | 1.0 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-409 | 72 | 9 | 1.0 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-410 | 72 | 10 | 1.0 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZQ-415 | 72 | 20 | 1.0 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
| ZTP-605A | 72 | 5 | 0.5 | High-grade OEM, Refinish, Coil & Plastic |
Silver Rocket’s advanced powder-processing technology ensures consistent particle morphology, improving metallic leveling and flake orientation. This stability enables coatings to maintain visual uniformity—even across large automotive body surfaces.
The new grades impart a silver-dollar-like appearance, increasing reflective gloss by up to 15% compared with standard grades (internal lab data). Automotive designers benefit from more vivid metallic effects and cleaner highlight transitions.
Whether used in solventborne or hybrid systems, the new aluminium pastes demonstrate strong compatibility, excellent flake stability, and resistance to pigment float, ensuring consistent color across batches.
This series meets the demanding appearance standards of:
Passenger vehicle OEM metallic basecoats
Refinish coatings requiring high brightness and smoothness
Coil coatings for exterior architectural panels
High-end plastic coatings, including consumer electronics and automotive interiors
The expanded particle-size range allows formulators to fine-tune brightness, hiding power, and flop effect. Compared with previous generations, the new products offer:
| Performance Area | Previous Generation | New Series |
|---|---|---|
| Reflectivity | Standard | Improved |
| Particle Uniformity | Moderate | High Precision |
| Orientation | Good | Excellent |
| Batch Consistency | ±5% | ±2% Improved |
The series is mainly optimized for solventborne OEM and refinish coatings, but Silver Rocket also provides customized waterborne-compatible solutions.
Yes. As a factory-direct aluminium pigment manufacturer, Silver Rocket offers tailored particle sizes, solvent systems, and surface treatments.
All grades meet global automotive coating requirements and are produced under ISO-certified quality management systems.
Silver Rocket’s new Automotive Specialty Aluminium Paste series marks a significant step forward in delivering highly stable, high-purity metallic pigments for automotive and industrial coatings. With precise particle control, superior reflectivity, and consistent batch quality, OEMs and coating formulators gain a reliable solution for next-generation metallic finishes.
