Colored glazed ceramics

Lead antimonate [13510-89-9] (Naples yellow), Pb2(Sb0 2> mol wt 993.07, d = 6.58g/cm, is an orange-yeUow powder that is insoluble in water and dilute acids, but very slightly soluble in hydrochloric acid. Lead antimonates are modifiers for ferroelectric lead titanates, pigments in oil-base paints, and colorants for glasses and glazes (see Colorants for ceramics). They are made by the reaction of lead nitrate and potassium antimonate solutions, followed by concentration and crystallization. 

This dissociated zircon is amenable to hot aqueous caustic leaching to remove the siHca in the form of soluble sodium siHcate. The remaining skeletal stmcture of zirconia is readily washed to remove residual caustic. Purity of this zirconia is direcdy related to the purity of the starting zircon since only siHca, phosphate, and trace alkaHes and alkaline earth are removed during the leach. This zirconia, and the untreated dissociated zircon, are both proposed for use in ceramic color glazes (36) (see Colorants for ceramics). 

Cadmium hydroxide is the anode material of Ag—Cd and Ni—Cd rechargeable storage batteries (see Batteries, secondary cells). Cadmium sulfide, selenide, and especially teUuride find utiUty in solar cells (see Solarenergy). Cadmium sulfide, Hthopone, and sulfoselenide are used as colorants (orange, yellow, red) for plastics, glass, glazes, mbber, and fireworks (see Colorants for ceramics Colorants forplastics Pigments). 

Use Ceramics to produce colored glazes, manufacture of fluorescent uranium glass. 

The ionic compound sometimes called uranium yellow is used to produce colored glazes for ceramics. It is 7.252% sodium, 75.084% uranium, and 17.664% oxygen. Wliat is the empirical formula for this compound ...
