Abstract

Abstract Zinc sulfide pigments belong besides titanium dioxide and zinc oxide pigments to the most important inorganic whites. The pigments are mostly used in primers, plastics, fillers, putties, artists’ colors, and emulsion paints. Zinc sulfide pigments are divided into pure zinc sulfide (ZnS) and lithopone (mixtures of ZnS with BaSO4) pigments. They are synthesized using precipitation processes in aqueous medium. Compared with pure zinc sulfide pigments, lithopone pigments have a much larger technical importance.
