  2. Chemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_coloring_of_metals

    Chemical coloring of metals is primarily used in the manufacture of sculptures, jewelry, badges, medals,clocks, watches and decorations. It is also used in architecture, metallography, in the manufacture of metal furniture, and for military purposes as well as decorative vessels. It is used in the restoration and conservation of metals to some ...

  3. Color of chemicals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_chemicals

    Color of chemicals. The color of chemicals is a physical property of chemicals that in most cases comes from the excitation of electrons due to an absorption of energy performed by the chemical. The study of chemical structure by means of energy absorption and release is generally referred to as spectroscopy.

  4. CPK coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPK_coloring

    CPK coloring. A plastic ball-and-stick model of proline. These models usually comply with CPK coloring. In chemistry, the CPK coloring (for Corey – Pauling – Koltun) is a popular color convention for distinguishing atoms of different chemical elements in molecular models.

  5. Vitriol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitriol

    Vitriol is the general chemical name encompassing a class of chemical compounds comprising sulfates of certain metals – originally, iron or copper. Those mineral substances were distinguished by their color, such as green vitriol for hydrated iron (II) sulfate and blue vitriol for hydrated copper (II) sulfate. [1]

  6. Electrochemical coloring of metals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrochemical_coloring...

    Electrochemical coloring of metals is a process in which the surface color of metal is changed by electrochemical techniques, i.e. cathodic or anodic polarization. The first method of electrochemical coloring of metals are certainly Nobili's colored rings, discovered by Leopoldo Nobili , an Italian physicist in 1826.

  7. Synthetic colorant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_colorant

    A colorant is any substance that changes the spectral transmittance or reflectance of a material. [1] Synthetic colorants are those created in a laboratory or industrial setting. The production and improvement of colorants was a driver of the early synthetic chemical industry, in fact many of today's largest chemical producers started as dye ...
