Definitions
- This invention relates to inorganic pigments and their use for the colouration of substrates, particularly plastic and glass substrates.
- Some of the most commonly used inorganic pigments for colour shades from yellow through orange to red are those based on cadmium sulphide and cadmium selenide. These have excellent colour strength and are used widely for the colouration of plastics and other substrates.
- Cadmium is toxic, and thus there is concern over the build up of cadmium pigments in the environment. The perceived risk is greater than the actual risk due to the extremely low solubility of cadmium sulphide and selenide, nevertheless pigment manufacturers have long identified the need to find replacement pigments for the cadmium systems.
- Cadmium sulphide and selenide are also not always suitable for the colouration of glasses.
- yellow and red inorganic pigments include those based on iron oxide, Ti-Ni-Sb rutile pigments, bismuth vanadate, praseodymium zircon yellow and lead chromates.
- Solid State Chem., 13, (1975) 118-130 also report crystallographic studies on tin-niobium oxides as well as tin-tantalum oxides. Neither of the above mentioned references discusses any practical usage of the compounds whatsoever; they are merely academic studies aimed at elucidating certain structural parameters.
- tin-niobium oxides can be used advantageously as inorganic pigments in the yellow to red colour range. They have good colour properties and show stability in a range of substrates. Furthermore, they do not have any of the toxicity issues associated with cadmium based pigments.
- the present invention provides the use of a tin-niobium oxide corresponding to the general formula Sn 1+x Nb 2 ⁇ 6+ ⁇ , wherein 0 ⁇ x ⁇ 1, as an inorganic pigment.
- the present invention provides a pigmented composition
- a pigmented composition comprising a substrate matrix and a pigment; wherein the pigment comprises a tin-niobium oxide corresponding to the general formula Sn 1+ ⁇ Nb 2 O 6+x ; and wherein 0 ⁇ x ⁇ 1.
- the present invention provides a method for the pigmentation of a substrate matrix comprising combining the matrix with a tin-niobium oxide pigment corresponding to the general formula Sn 1+ ⁇ Nb 2 ⁇ 6 +x ; wherein 0 ⁇ x ⁇ 1.
- tin-niobium oxides are particularly effective for the pigmentation of plastic substrates.
- Pure Foordite, SnNb 2 O 6 for example, when added to plastics such as PVC gives a very strong and vibrant yellow colouration.
- Other plastics and other pigments are also, of course, included in the invention.
- the pigments are also thermally stable at high temperatures making them suitable for addition to glasses.
- Any type of glass may be used, for example, leaded and non-leaded glasses and bismuth containing glasses.
- the thus-pigmented glass may be used as a glass frit, in the preparation of glazes and many other uses.
- the pigments may be used in any amount.
- the pigment is present in an amount of between 1 and 50 wt% preferably, between 1 and 10 wt% for example, 5wt%.
- the pigments may be used alone or in combination with other pigments.
- the pigments may be combined with substrate matrices by methods known in the art.
- the pigment may be added whilst the plastic is molten using manual or automatic mixing, or by adding to an extruder/mixer.
- Pigmented plastics may be used as masterbatches.
- the pigments are preferably used in the form of fine powders. Methods for the production of fine pigment powders are known in the art and include methods such are ball milling and grinding.
- the particle size of the pigments will depend on their intended use; suitably the pigments will have a particle size in the range from 0.1 to 50 ⁇ m preferably between 0.1 and 20 ⁇ m, more preferably between 0.1 and lO ⁇ m, for example approximately 2 ⁇ m.
- a stoichiometric mix of stannous oxide and niobium (V) oxide were mixed in a coffee grinder. ( 38.5g SnO + 75.9g Nb 2 O 5 ) The material was packed into an aluminosilicate crucible. A ceramic tile was then cemented on the top of the crucible to act as a lid. The sample was fired at 900°C. On removal a bright yellow powder was produced, the colour properties of which are given in Table 1.
- Example 1 The materials produced in Examples 1 and 2 above were mixed with a ground low melting glass enamel frit (B5320f), at a pigment loading of 8wt%.
- the mixed powders were dispersed into a pine oil based resin using a triple roll mill.
- the ink produced was screen printed onto float glass pieces with a wet thickness of about 50 ⁇ m.
- the decorated glass tiles were fired at 600°C to give a glossy enamel finish.
