Ink is the primary ingredient of many designs and printings around us. Without it, printing and packaging would not be possible. Pigments give color to the ink. The pigments are primarily of two types: organic pigments and inorganic pigments. These pigments are also used for the coloring process as textile pigment emulsions. Pigments absorb and reflect a certain wavelength of light which gives them their color. What Are Inorganic Pigments? Inorganic pigments are made up of minerals and salts and are based on oxide, sulfate, sulfide, carbonate, and other such combinations. They are highly insoluble and opaque. Their demand is very high in the industrial sector owing to their low cost. First, very simple experiments are conducted to produce inorganic pigments, which increase its cost-effectiveness. Secondly, they do not fade quickly on exposure to light, making them a very good coloring agent for industrial purposes. Examples of Inorganic Pigments: Titanium Oxide: This pigment is opaque
