They are mainly composed of a mixture of metal oxides and fluxes, and after high-temperature firing, they display brilliant colors. They are used for decorating the ceramic body, underglaze, overglaze, or within the glaze itself, including cobalt oxide for blue and iron oxide for red/yellow. The purpose is to beautify the appearance of ceramics and enhance their decorative appeal and durability.

Continuous technological innovation, particularly the popularization and advancement of digital inkjet printing (IJP) technology, has fundamentally transformed the product form (from powder to specialized inks) and application modes of colorants. This has led to new and more stringent technical requirements for colorant particle size distribution, high-temperature stability, and performance in various substrates, continuously driving a paradigm shift in colorant research and development. The downstream application sectors' relentless pursuit of improved color and performance is driving industry growth. From ceramic tiles to daily-use ceramics and artistic ceramics, the market demands a wider range of colors that are more stable and safer.
