Atlas Double Helix Rod
- Description
- Working Notes
-
Atlas is a highly saturated striking colour, four times as strong as Skiron. Pure silver is the only colourant. Atlas can produce a range of colours both transparent and opaque, including ambers, purples, blues, and greens. It works well in both surface and encased applications. Super-heating can cause phase separation, creating patterns in the final outcome.
-
Formulated with the same nucleation system as Skylla, Skiron, Terra3, and Ekho2. Atlas is easy to strike using the reset/cool/warm sequence. It is very responsive to varied thermal history, allowing the development of many different colours on the same piece.
Our benchmark times for surface application are Reset/30 seconds cool/30 seconds strike. A clear encasement layer adds about 15 seconds to the cooling and striking times. Specific times and colour outcomes will vary depending on several factors
