Abstract—Vanadium-containing yellow pigment was deposited onto marshalite particles through solution-combustion reaction of V₂O₅ with salts of Bi, Zn, and Ca using citric acid as a fuel and characterized by XRD, FT-IR spectra, and SEM. Yellow color of the pigment was due to the presence of bismuth vanadate BiVO₄. Minor impurity of Bi₄V₂O₁₁ by-product imparted a beige hue to the pigment. The addition of Zn²⁺ and Ca²⁺ cations improved the chromatic characteristics of the pigment. Size distribution of resultant pigment is defined by that of mineral substrate powder. Our pigments were heat resistant and retained their color up to 800°С.
