Neutron activation analysis and Mössbauer spectroscopy research on coloring mechanism of ancient Chinese Guan porcelain

The content of 30 kinds of coloring elements in Guan porcelain in the Southern Song Dynasty has been determined by neutron activation analysis (NAA). Iron is the major coloring element. Mossbauer spectroscopy has shown that the iron of the glaze exists in the form of structural iron (Fe2+, Fe3+). Th...

Summary:The content of 30 kinds of coloring elements in Guan porcelain in the Southern Song Dynasty has been determined by neutron activation analysis (NAA). Iron is the major coloring element. Mossbauer spectroscopy has shown that the iron of the glaze exists in the form of structural iron (Fe2+, Fe3+). The quantitative relationship between the main wavelength of every color glaze and the relative content (Fe2+/Fe3+) of structural iron has been determined. Thus the coloring mechanism of Guan porcelain in the Southern Song Dynasty has been revealed entirely.
