In this study, amorphous TiO2 microspheres were used as substrates to prepare core-shell CoTiO3/NiTiO3 inorganic composite pigments. The pigments exhibited good mono-dispersity and large numbers of mesopores on the surface. The synthesis process and properties of the pigments were characterized using various techniques. The results showed that the pigments had smooth surfaces, uniform particle size, and could change color with varying Co/Ni molar ratios. This research provides a solution for the preparation of spherical inorganic pigments suitable for industrial inkjet printing.
In this study, home-made amorphous TiO2 microspheres with good mono-dispersity and large numbers of mesopores on the surface were used as substrates. The intermediate microspheres were obtained by adding Co/Ni sources with different Co/Ni molar ratios in a water bath and making them react by water bath heating. By calcining the intermediate microspheres deposited on the TiO2 ones, a core-shell structured spherical CoTiO3/NiTiO3 inorganic composite pigment was prepared. The synthesized pigments were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), laser particle size (LPS) analysis and colorimetry. The results show that when the calcination temperature is 800 degrees C and the Co/Ni molar ratio is 0.5:0.5, the pigments consist of a TiO2 core and outer ilmenite CoTiO3/NiTiO3 shell. Moreover, the surface of the product microspheres is smooth, and the particles are of regular sphericity with a uniform particle size of about 1.8 mu m. The colorimetric analysis from the samples calcined at 800 degrees C shows color changes from yellow-green to dark green as the Co/Ni molar ratio increases (0.1:0.9 to 0.9:0.1). A Co/Ni molar ratio that is too high or too low results in the formation of by-products such as Co3O4 or NiO, respectively, which adhere to the product surface and affect the chromaticity of the product. This work has enabled the chromatic modulation of yellow-green inorganic pigments, providing a solution for the preparation of spherical inorganic pigments that are more suitable for industrial inkjet printing.
