Enhancing the chroma of pigmented polymers using antireflective surface structures

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

In this paper we investigate how the color of a pigmented polymer is affected by reduction of the reflectance at the air–polymer interface. Both theoretical and experimental investigations show modified diffuse-direct reflectance spectra when the reflectance of the surface is lowered. Specifically it is found that the color change is manifested as an increase in chroma, leading to a clearer color experience. The experimental implementation is done using random tapered surface structures replicated in polymer from silicon masters using hot embossing.
