Cadmium pigments are a class of pigments that have cadmium as one of the chemical components. Most of cadmium produced worldwide is used in the production of nickel-cadmium batteries, but about half the remaining consumption, which is about 2,000 tons annually, is used to produce colored cadmium pigments. The principal pigments are a family of yellow/orange/red cadmium sulfides and sulfoselenides as well as compounds with metals other than Cd.〔Hugo Müller, Wolfgang Müller, Manfred Wehner, Heike Liewald "Artists' Colors" in Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry 2002, Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. 〕 ==Artists' paints== Brilliantly colored, with good permanence and tinting power, cadmium yellow, cadmium orange and cadmium red are familiar artists’ colors, as well as being frequently employed as architectural paints, since they can add life and vibrancy to renderings. Their greatest use is in the coloring of plastics and specialty paints which must resist processing or service temperatures up to .〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cadmium Pigments )〕 The color-fastness or permanence of cadmium requires protection from a tendency to slowly form carbonate salts with exposure to air. Most paint vehicles accomplish this, but cadmium colors will fade in fresco or mural painting. The following are commonly used as pigments in artists' paints: *Cadmium yellow is cadmium sulfide (CdS). C.I. Pigment Yellow 37 *Cadmium sulfoselenide is a solid solution of CdS and CdSe. Depending on the S/Se ratio, C.I. Pigment Orange 20 or C.I. Pigment Red 108 is obtained. *Zinc cadmium sulfide is a greenish, solid solution of CdS and ZnS. C.I. Pigment Yellow 35. *Cadmium yellow is sometimes mixed with viridian to give a bright, pale green mixture called cadmium green. When first introduced, there were hardly any stable pigments in the yellow to red range, with orange and bright red being very troublesome. The cadmium pigments eventually replaced compounds such as mercury sulfide (the original vermilion) with greatly improved light-fastness. Cadmium pigments are known for excellent light-fastness, although the lighter shades can fade in sunlight. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cadmium pigments」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
