Abstract: A method for producing a color powder, the method comprising dry mixing a pigment powder with a base powder while applying heat, so as to bring the base powder to an adhesive state while the pigment powder remains in a stable state, thereby forming a color powder having agglomerates essentially each comprising a component of the base powder and a component of the ground pigment powder.

Abstract: A method for producing a color powder concentrate, the method comprising: performing a first dry-mixing of a base powder with an excess amount of a pigment powder to produce an initial mixture; filtering out pigment agglomerates larger than a pre-determined size, to produce a sieved mixture; and performing a second dry-mixing of the sieved mixture with a compensatory amount of a base powder to produce the color powder concentrate, wherein the compensatory amount of the base powder may be determined based on the excess amount of the pigment powder and on an amount of the pigment agglomerates filtered out.
