I'm way out of my element here, but here is how it was described to me. The "bond" occurs out at the very outer edges of the structures- particles? molecules?...
The result being more tenuous than other kinds of potentially more "complete" bonds.
Would that make it chemical, molecular, particular?

The implication was that it's then more susceptable to influence and can be altered.. which not only might account for differences in appearance like hue (given any slight change in the makeup of any factor, the ink or the coating), but also breakdown from environmental factors like exposure to light, contaminates etc..

OK, enough of me making a fool of myself talking about things of which I no only enough to be dangerous...
