Firstly, it's essential to understand what makes lithopone a preferred choice for many consumers. Unlike traditional lead-based paints, lithopone is free from harmful substances, making it an environmentally friendly option. Its superior coverage means that fewer coats are needed to achieve the desired finish, which translates to cost savings for homeowners and contractors alike. Moreover, lithopone's brightness index is higher than most pigments, ensuring a vibrant and long-lasting appearance on walls.

The refractive index, represented by the letter n, of a material describes how light propagates through and is bent by, that material. The magnitude of the refractive index, depending upon the electronic structure of the molecules, governs to what extent the path of light changes, when entering or leaving a material.

Particles in a matrix, like pigment particles surrounded by the binder system in a coating, ink or plastic, can change the propagation direction of light when the particles and the matrix have a different refractive index. This phenomenon, called scattering, results in both white color (provided that the particles do not absorb visible light) and the hiding power of the coating.
