Abstract

A sol–gel modified method for obtention of gray and pink ceramic pigments in zircon matrix is discussed in this work. The chromophoric powders were firstly well dispersed in the solution containing zirconium and metasilicate ions before gelation and the product ceramic pigments obtained by calcining the xerogel with mineralizers. The zircon was well crystallized at 1,050 °C with the yield about 97%. The mineralization mechanism of the zircon formation was also discussed.
