Abstract

Bismuth oxychloride nacreous pigment coated with a rare earth metal compound is described. The coated pigment is prepared by adding a rare earth metal salt solution to a suspension of bismuth oxychloride pigment crystals to form a further suspension containing the pigment crystals and cerium hydroxide. The cerium hydroxide is then precipitated out of the further suspension to coat the pigment crystals. The coated pigment is endowed with improved weather fastness.
