Abstract:Bi 4 V 2 O 11 (BiVO) is an Aurivillius-type layered compound that exhibits a red color, and has been attracting attention for its non-toxicity. In this study, we have synthesized a variety of metal oxide-doped Bi 4 V 2 O 11 , and aimed to evaluate the effect of the doped metal element on the color tone of the pigments. Bi 2 O 3 and V 2 O 5 were weighed to 2:1 in mole fraction and mixed in a dry-ball mill with zirconia media for 10 min. Next, transition metal oxides (MnO 2 , ¡-Fe 2 O 3 , CoO, NiO, CuO, TiO 2 , … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
