Chemical Engineering Pigments with different colors are prepared. This is done by coating mica flakes with metal oxides, chlorides and sulfates. The obtained colors are red, orange, gold, blue, and brown with different shades. Some of these pigments are pearlescent. Microscopic pictures of pigment crystalline are taken. The pigment preparation methods are based on chemical reactions and precipitation. The final color was formed during thermal annealing of precipitates at temperature (150-800) C°.
