RheoLight Crystal Glass Pigments

Any color becomes less visible under increasing angles of observation, even during the day. Developed specifically for the automotive and mobility industry, RheoLight by Ink Invent is the world’s first 1-25 micron perfectly round Crystal Glass Effect Pigment, which refracts light differently than any other effect pigment on the market.

Like diamonds, RheoLight refracts light with ever-changing reflections, increasing the Angular Independent Point of View (AIPOV) visibility of any colored surface by returning light along the incoming angle. It does this regardless of the angle of the surface, combining high-end aesthetic appeal with enhanced visibility, and setting new design and safety standards for exterior designs. RheoLight boosts LiDAR results up to 140 times, and computer vision reliability increases by 21%.

With the quality and application compatibility of our product offerings verified by the automotive industry OEM’s and formulators we are thrilled to now also provide our solutions direct to consumer” said Ink Invent CEO Paul Mijnen. “Offering our RheoLight Signature Series direct in the creative hands of professionals such as refinish painters and body shops supports our mission of providing RheoLight to the world: making it safer, more colorful and beautiful for everyone.

The ready-for-use water- and solvent-based dispersions of RheoLight Signature Series are suitable for any paint system and application technique to enhance the visibility and aesthetic appeal of color coatings. RheoLight enables the functional utilization of colors by significantly boosting the visibility of vehicles in both day- and night-time for both the human eye and advanced driver-assistance-systems (ADAS), in the automotive industry supporting the transition to full driving automation and reducing traffic incidents.
