Effect of Fe3+ Doping on the Color Performance of CuCr2O4 Black Pigment

Abstract

Abstract: In order to improve the color performance of CuCr₂O₄ black pigment, CuCr_2-xFe_xO₄ (x=0,0.04,0.05,0.06,0.07) were prepared by co-precipitation method. The samples were characterized by TG-DTA, XRD, SEM, Raman, XPS, UV-Vis and chromaticity values. The results show that the substitution of Fe³⁺ for Cr³⁺ in CuCr₂O₄, and the valence state of Fe is trivalent. There are no impurity phases. The CuCr_2-xFe_xO₄ has well-defined spinel structure, fine grain and good dispersion. The Fe³⁺ substitution decreases the band gap of pigments from 1.25 eV to 1.08 eV, attributes to 2p(O^2-)→3d(Fe³⁺) charge transform and d-d(⁶A_1g→⁴T_1g, ⁶A_1g→⁴T_2g) charge transform in Fe³⁺, which increases absorption in visible light(380 nm to 780 nm), decrease L^* value and shows good blackness. The CuCr_1.95Fe_0.05O₄ has the optimal chromaticity values which are L^*=17.63, a^*=-0.77, b^*=-1.61.
