Novel Orange Color Pigments Based on La₃LiMnO₇

La₃LiMn_1-xTi_xO₇ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.05) samples were synthesized by a solid-state reaction method, and a single-phase form was observed for the samples in the range of x ≤ 0.03. Crystal structure, optical properties, and color of the La₃LiMn_1-xTi_xO₇ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.03) samples were characterized. Strong optical absorption was observed at a wavelength between 400 and 550 nm, and a shoulder absorption peak also appeared around 690 nm in all samples; orange colors were also exhibited. Among the samples synthesized, the most brilliant orange color was obtained at La₃LiMn_0.97Ti_0.03O₇. The redness (a*) and yellowness (b*) values of this pigment were higher than those of the commercially available orange pigments. Therefore, the orange color of this pigment is brighter than those of the commercial products. Since the La₃LiMn_0.97Ti_0.03O pigment is composed of non-toxic elements, it could be a new environmentally friendly inorganic orange pigment.
