orpiment (pigment) (inorganic yellow pigment, yellow pigment, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: A soft, yellow mineral composed of arsenic trisulfide that occurs naturally in volcanic fumaroles, hydrothermal veins, hot springs, and as a decomposition product of realgar. It changes to a red crystalline form at 170 C. Orpiment was used from ancient times as a pigment in painting, in manuscript illumination, and polychrome sculpture, having good tinting strength, but not permanent and toxic. King's yellow is the synthetic counterpart. |

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 一種質軟的黃色礦物,以天然出現於火山噴氣孔、熱液脈、溫泉的硫化砷製成,同時也是雞冠石的分解產物。雌黃在攝氏170度會變成紅色晶體型態。古時候起雌黃就做為繪畫、手稿插圖和彩色雕塑的顏料。著色度強,不過非永久,且具毒性。雄黃為其合成對應。 |
