68 Ultramarine pigments
-
Gerhard Pfaff
Abstract
Ultramarine pigments are representatives of the inorganic blue pigments. They are characterized by intensive shades of blue and relatively weak violet and pink color tones. The composition of the pigments can be summarized by the formula Na7Al6Si6O24S3. The color of ultramarine is generated by incorporation of free polysulfide radicals in the structure of a sodalite-derived crystal lattice. Ultramarine pigments are synthesized using a series of complex solid-state reactions. The pigments are mainly used in plastics, paints and powder coatings and printing inks, but also in paper and paper coatings.
