Color pigment nanotechnology
First Claim
1. A pigment comprising polymetallic nanofillers, wherein the pigment is brown and wherein the polymetallic nanofillers are produced using a method comprising:
- providing a solution for each of one or more desired constituent elements of a desired polymetallic nanofiller;
mixing the solutions containing each of the constituent elements of the desired polymetallic nanofiller to form a mix of solutions;
preparing polymetallic nanofillers from the mix of solutions in a thermal plasma process;
mixing the polymetallic nanofillers in a liquid matrix;
coating the nanofillers with a polymer or a monomer; and
wherein the polymetallic nanofillers have a domain size less than 100 nanometers.
