Abstract

Novel yellow to blackish green Ni-doped aluminium titanate (Al2TiO5) ceramic pigments were synthesized by solid-state reaction method at 1400 ?C. Effects of nickel doping content on phase composition, microstructure, optical properties and stability were studied. The results show that the higher content of Al2TiO5 phase and the reduction of the lattice distortion of aluminium titanate could be attributed to the entry of nickel ions into aluminium titanate lattice resulting in the formation of solid solution. Ni-doped aluminium titanate ceramic pigments show exceptional glaze colouring and are expected to be promising high-temperature pigments.
