Sol-gel production of ceramic pigments with diopside and anorthite structures

The possibility of obtaining ceramic pigments with diopside and anorthite structures using wollastonite has been investigated. It was found that the use of the gel method promotes the intensification of the processes of synthesis of the crystal structure of anorthite and diopside due to better homogenization and averaging of the components of the charge even at the mixing stage. A positive fact is the successful formation of anorthite and diopside structures at relatively low temperatures - about 1100 ° C, as well as the mineralizing effect of chromophores on the crystallization of these minerals.
