Description
Inorganic materials are used to color or opacify glass as well as to color ceramic glazes and vitreous enamels. Examples include:
- opaque white: fluorides, tin oxide, or bone ash.
- iridescence: silver and bismuth.
- black: two or more cobalt, copper, iron, and nickel oxides, or iron and carbon.
- gray: nickel oxide and titanium dioxide.
- purple: neodymium oxide.
- blue: cobalt oxide, copper oxide.
- blue-green: iron chromate, or copper oxide.
- green: iron oxide and chromic oxide.
- yellow-green: chromic oxide, or cadmium sulfide.
- yellow: uranium oxide, iron/manganese, ceric oxide, or silver oxide (surface).
- amber: iron oxide and sulfur, coal and sulfur, or iron disulfide.
- red: cadmium sulfide, cadmium selenide, manganese, metallic gold, copper oxide, gold chloride or gold-tin purple (purple of Cassius).
- violet: manganese oxide
