Visitors of Sun Chemical booth #AE 40 in Barcelona, Spain will be introduced to SunPRIZMA™, a new range of 11 silica-based color travel effect pigments. Offered in two particle size ranges, this innovative line offers high coverage, multi-chrome effects for intense bold looks and glittering color travel for striking sparkle finishes.
