Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Like many other textbooks, this one has its origins in the classroom and is the culmination of more than 10 years’ experience of teaching courses on colorimetry to engineers and technicians from various branches of industry. The VDMI, the VdL and the FPL asked various experts at pigments, paints, and instrument makers in 2000 to design various training modules for colourists working on industrial, plastics, paint, and print applications of colour. The objective was to provide a technically correct and up-to-date introduction to those many aspects of colour and colour applications in industry. The target group was engineers deeply involved in colour applications in various industrial sectors. The first set of training modules was offered in 2001. Until retiring in 2014, Dr. Tasso Bäurle successfully steered the ship for almost 14 years, taking charge of the training modules.-
• He continually refined and modified the underlying concept to meet the demands of the participants and participating industries. The latest version comprises just two modules covering elementary concepts of colorimetry and in-depth insights in colorimetry. Although the main focus is on paint applications, all the methods presented can be readily adapted to colour applications in other industries. The main purpose of this book is to provide a comprehensive survey of relevant industrial colour applications and numerous concepts of physical and physiological pigment optics in order that a written record may be preserved of the specialist knowledge of all the lecturers involved in the coloristic training course.-
• The colour problems discussed in this book include optics and chemistry of solid-colour and effect pigments, colourant formulation, optical microscopy of effect colour shades for pigment identification, methods of elementary and advanced colorimetry, measurement and visual assessment of solid and effect colour shades, colour tolerances and acceptability, and colour-order systems. Compared to the first German edition, this English edition contains a further chapter devoted to the newly emerging area of visual texture assessment of effect colour shades. Although technology for measuring visible texture is already available on the market, no mathematically rigorous definition of texture parameters and their dimensionality has been formulated so far that would be accepted throughout the colour community.-
