Glass pigments

Uses. Selenium is used extensively in the manufacture and production of glass, pigments, rubber, metal alloys, textiles, petroleum and medical therapeutic agents. It is markedly photoconductive and widely used in photoelectric devices. 

Representative alloys containing antimony arc described in the Tabic L Metallic antimony is an effective pearlitizing agent for producing pearlitic cast iron, The principal use of antimony, however, is in the form of the oxide Its major application is as a flame retardant for plastics and textiles, Other applications of importance are in glass, pigments, and catalysts.

Chromium. Chromium is a hard but brittle metal of good corrosion resistance. It is mostly alloyed with other metals, especially steel, to make final products harder and more resistant to corrosion. It is also used in electroplating, leather tanning, and refractory brick making, and as glass pigments. 

Said to be the first time glass pigments have been offered coated with titanium dioxide, giving a brilliant star-like glitter, with depth and multiple colours, another range by Engelhard, under the name Firemist, offers exceptional chroma, colour purity, brightness, transparency, and reflectivity. 

According to Field (1835), this is a finer sort of the blue cobalt-doped glass pigment known as smalt q.v.).
