Abstract

Uvarovite Garnet is green pigment prepared by using $Cr_2O_3$, CaO and $SiO_2$ which are widely used in ceramic industry. The synthesis of above pigment was carried out by mixing $K_2Cr_2O_7$, $SiO_2$ and $CaCO_3$ as formulated and then firing at $1000{\sim}1200^{\circ}C$. To investigate the optimum synthesis condition of the Uvarovite Garnet. it was prepared by using CaO to replace $CaCO_3$, $CaF_2$ and $CaCl_2$. To get green brighter color, $Al^{3+}$ was substituted for $Cr^{3+}$. They were characterized by X-ray diffraction, UV-Vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and SEM analysis. When the pigments were applied to lime glazes (6 wt%), color parameters of Uvarovite Garnet showed the $L^*$=40.99, $a^*$=-16.23 and $b^*$=17.04.
