Pantone 877 C Silver Masterbatch (Matched to Pantone Reference)

Direct Answer

Pantone 877 C is a metallic silver used in premium packaging, consumer goods, automotive trim, and decorative plastics. The same Pantone reference does not produce a single Masterbatch — the right grade depends on your host polymer, processing temperature, shear history, and the type of silver effect required (metallic luster, pearlescent, or satin).

Why Pantone 877 C Is Not One Product

• Aluminum flake pigments — strongest metallic luster, good opacity, widely used in automotive and packaging.
• Mica-based pearlescent / interference pigments — softer, more satin-like effects; better for cosmetics and premium packaging.
• Coated glass-flake or borosilicate pigments — high sparkle and chroma; used in decorative plastics.
• Coated titanium-dioxide/mica pigments — white-silver pearlescent effects with lower conductivity.

Typical Applications

Premium cosmetic packaging, automotive interior trim, consumer electronics, decorative household goods, gift packaging, toys, and promotional items. The final effect pigment choice depends on the desired luster, opacity, conductivity, and whether the part is indoor or outdoor.
