Chemically it is Sodium Alumino Sulphosilicate and represent a blue pigment comprising primarily of double silicate of aluminum & sodium with some sulphides/ sulfates, Ultramarine pigment occurs in nature as a proximate component of lapis lazuli. Today, it is widely accepted in the global markets as the "blue whitener".

Effectiveness is due to the reflectance characteristics of this pigment. As Ultramarine has redder undertone, it reflects at both blue as well as red extremes of spectrum, thus absorbing only unwanted yellow component. With most other blues having greener undertone, hence in addition to absorbing yellow components they also absorb red component, therefore cannot provide a balanced correction as delivered by Ultramarine pigments.
