Abstract

Compounds based on CeO2 were synthesized as high-temperature environment-friendly inorganic pigments with interesting hues. The pigments have been synthesized by using the solid state reaction in the temperature range from 1,300 to 1,600 °C. The host lattice of these pigments is CeO2 that is doped by terbium ions. The incorporation of doped ions provides interesting orange colours after application into ceramic glaze. The goal was to develop conditions for the synthesis of these compounds and to determine the influence of calcination temperature on their colouring effects. The simultaneous TG-DTA measurements were used for determination of the temperature region of the pigment formation and thermal stability of pigments. The pigments were also evaluated from the standpoint of their structure and particle sizes.
