Ln-CeO2 (Ln = Pr, Tb, Eu) and M-CeO2 solid solutions (reference samples with M = Cr or In, as transition and main group elements, respectively) have been prepared by ceramic and coprecipitation routes. The resulting coloured materials have been checked as potential pigments for porcelainised stoneware. The colouring mechanism is based on the introduction of an additional electronic level of energy in cerianite forbidden band, arising from unpaired 4f electrons of lanthanide ions. The red ceramic pigments obtained have been found to be interesting alternatives for the coloration of porcelainised stoneware bodies. In addition, they present a much lower toxicity than classical cadmium sulfoselenide or chromium-LnAlO(3) based red pigments, because both the chromophoric agent (praseodymium and europium ions) and ceramic matrix (cerianite) contain lanthanide elements.
