In the case of ceramic pigments, the historical evolution of academic entries in the Google-Academic search tool for ceramic pigment and sol-gel (Figure 37.4) in 1990 indicates the start of publications including both keywords. 

The number of academic entries in the Google-Academic search tool is around 1200 (as of March 2014) (Figure 37.1), and the academic publications is about 98% of total publications. We can consider three main steps in the development of ceramic pigments for glazed ceramics (i) before the discovery of European porcelain (1710), after this discovery up to 1900 with the introduction of the green of Sevres as the main relevant novelty in 1802, (ii) the twentieth century with the discovery of the zircon stain family, and (iii) the twenty-first century with the development of submicrometer size pigments for inkjet applications.
