Vanadium-Zirconium Blue 1407

Vanadium-Zirconium Blue 1407 is a high-temperature stable inorganic ceramic pigment based on zircon. It uses vanadium ions as the chromophore center and zircon (ZrSiO₄) as the host crystal lattice, appearing as a pure sky blue / navy blue ultrafine powder. Specially designed for high-temperature ceramic firing, it is the mainstream choice for high-end ceramic blue pigments.

Basic Information

Model: Vanadium-Zirconium Blue 1407

Category: Inorganic ceramic glaze pigment (zirconium-based pigment)

Core Composition: Zr-Si-V composite system (vanadium ions dissolved in zircon crystal lattice)

Appearance: Uniform sky blue ultrafine powder, free of agglomeration and impurities

Crystal Structure: Zircon (ZrSiO₄) solid solution, grain size 200–500 nm

Note: Not an organic dye, non-toxic, with significantly different properties from cobalt blue, ultramarine and other pigments

Chemical Stability	Acid and alkali resistant, glaze corrosion resistant, highly compatible with various ceramic glazes
Tinting Strength	High, typical dosage in glaze 2%–6%
Environmental Index	Pb < 5ppm, Cd < 2ppm, complies with REACH and FDA food contact standards

Core Product Characteristics

High-Temperature Color Stability: Vanadium ions are firmly fixed in the zircon lattice, no decomposition or color shift at 1300℃ firing, color difference ΔE<2.0, suitable for the full process of architectural / domestic / art ceramics.

Pure and Bright Color: Presents bright sky blue to navy blue with uniform hue and high saturation. Can be used alone or blended with other pigments to achieve a wide range of blue shades.

Eco-Friendly and Safe: Inorganic metal oxide system, free of heavy metal pollution, meets global ceramic environmental and food contact safety requirements.

Strong Application Compatibility: Easy to disperse in glaze slips and glazes, suitable for underglaze color, in-glaze color, screen printing, decal paper, inkjet printing and other full decoration processes.

Excellent Weather Resistance and Durability: Outstanding UV, acid and alkali resistance, finished products do not fade or discolor during long-term use.

Main Application Areas

Architectural Ceramics: Coloring for wall and floor tiles, exterior wall tiles, antique tiles, enhancing decoration and durability

Domestic Ceramics: Food-contact products such as tableware, tea sets, sanitary ware, safe, non-toxic and long-lasting color

Art Ceramics: Craft porcelain, decorative porcelain, high-temperature underglaze painting, meeting fine decoration and complex shaping requirements

Other High-Temperature Fields: Enamel, high-temperature coatings, special glass coloring and other industrial applications requiring heat resistance

Usage Instructions

Fully mix and mill with base glaze, pass through a 325-mesh sieve to ensure uniform dispersion

Fire in oxidizing or neutral atmosphere; reducing atmosphere is strictly prohibited (may cause color shift and graying)

Adjust dosage according to glaze formula, target color and firing temperature; preliminary small-batch testing is recommended

Store sealed in a cool, dry and ventilated place, protected from moisture, sunlight and agglomeration
