Abstract: Abstract: Ceramic pigments of different colour intensities with a perovskite structure on the basis of isomorphously substituted Ва<superscript>2+</superscript> in BaTiO<subscript>3</subscript>, with element-chromophores: Со<superscript>3+</superscript>, Сr<superscript>3+</superscript>, Ni<superscript>2+</superscript>, Mn<superscript>2+</superscript>, Fe<superscript>3+</superscript>, Pr<superscript>3+</superscript>, Nd<superscript>3+</superscript> and Cu<superscript>2+</superscript>, are prepared by ceramic technique during solid-state synthesis. The addition of oxides results in different colour gradients. The prepared pigments can be used in the industry for the production of semi-conductive glazes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
