WHAT IS CERAMIC STAIN ?

Ceramic Stains are metal oxides with complex inorganic structures containing transition elements that are produced by means of a controlled calcination process at high temperatures. Thermal stability, resistance and appropiate particle size provide our pigments with high colour intensity. Their easy dispersion make them optimal for any type of colouration.

HOW DO CERAMIC STAINS PROVIDE COLOUR IN THE CERAMIC?

Ceramic Stains contain matrix with colouring agent in it. The colour is formed due to dispersion of colouring agent/crystals in the glass/glaze matrix .The matrix of ceramic stain embeds the colouring agent and ensures optimum interaction with the incoming light to get the desired colour/shade in the final product. The colour providing substance has to be temperature resistant and also chemically inert in the glaze/glass melt A full chromatic range of ceramic pigments that provide the best colour stability, high performance and homogeneity are listed below:
