Abstract

Catalytically active cerium dioxide is used as light reflection materials for cosmetic applications. Therefore, cosmetics containing this pigment too much cause oxidation of the skin. Therefore, the substitute for cerium dioxide is required to prepare the cosmetics without catalytic activity. Herein, as novel white pigments for use in cosmetics, cerium phosphates were prepared from cerium oxalate under various conditions. The chemical composition, powder properties, catalytic activity, color phase, and smoothness of the cerium phosphates were evaluated. All samples had weak unknown peaks in XRD patterns. Samples prepared at high temperature and for long time indicated the peaks of phosphate in IR spectra. Samples prepared in this work had no photo and oxidation catalytic activities. Samples prepared at high temperature and for long time indicated enough high whiteness and high smoothness.
