Owing to the limitation of traditional analytical methods, coloration mechanism copper red glaze has been disputed in academic field for a long time, which mainly focuses on whether color agent is metallic nanoparticles or cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O) nanoparticles. Based Mie scattering theory, this work calculated reflection spectra uniformly dispersed transparent with different types, diameters, an...

Abstract In this study we investigate the impact of addition colourless glass particles to red glazes, as seen in many 15th-17th-century easel paintings. With use reconstructions, examined influence paint preparation process on morphological and mechanical properties film. Three sets reconstructions were made, a control without ground glass, with coarse or fine mixed in, where was jointly pigme...
