This invention relates to colorants represented by the formula Bi2Ax-1DxOy wherein: A is selected from the group consisting of Bi, Ba, Sr, Ca, Y, La, or a mixture of two or more thereof; D is selected from the group consisting of V, Mo, Mn, Ti, Ta, Nb, W, Sb, Fe, Cr, Sn, Ce, or a mixture of two or more thereof; x is a number that is at least 1; and y is the number of oxygens needed to fulfill the valence requirements of Bi, A and D; with the proviso that when A is Bi, D is other than a mixture consisting of V and Mo. These colorants are useful in providing colored compositions including: organic compositions such as plastics, rubbers, and the like; inorganic compositions such as ceramics, porcelain enamels, and the like; and coating compositions such as paints, printing inks, and the like; etc. The invention also provides for processes for making such colorants and for making such colored compositions. The invention also provides for such colorants in the form of particulate solids (e.g., pigments) having one or more protective coatings applied to the surface of such solids. |
