Abstract

La présente invention concerne des particules de diffusion de lumière (10) qui comprennent un cœur (10c) et une enveloppe (10s). Le cœur (10c) est formé à partir d'un premier liant (11) et de premières particules fines (12). Les premières particules fines (12) comprennent une particule fine à faible indice de réfraction (12a) qui a un indice de réfraction inférieur à celui du premier liant (11). Les premières particules fines (12) entrent en contact et sont recouvertes par le premier liant. L'enveloppe (10s) entre en contact avec une surface extérieure du cœur (10c) et recouvre le cœur (10c). Le cœur (10s) comprend des particules sphériques (13) qui ont un diamètre de particule de 50 à 450 nm et donnent la rugosité (A) de surface de l'enveloppe (10s).
