Sepiolite can form stable hybrid pigments by immobilizing organic dyes in its microporous structure. Previous investigations demonstrated that the micropores and coordinated water might be responsible for the exceptional color and stability of indigo-sepiolite hybrid pigments. This work reveals the roles of coordinated water in forming hybrid pigments by acid modification. Raw sepiolite was modified by nitric acid at different conditions before use. Then a series of indigo-sepiolite pigments were prepared by indigo and acid-modified sepiolite. Their microstructures were characterized and analyzed by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, transmission electron microscopy, and N2adsorption-desorption. The color properties of hybrid pigments were evaluated by reflectance spectra and CIE color parameters. Investigations into the chemical stability of pigments were conducted using concentrated HNO3and dimethyl sulfoxide. In addition, the photostability of pigments exposed to simulated 30-year illumination in a typical museum was studied. Acid modification of sepiolite contributed to a larger specific surface area and pore volume. However, acid modification resulted in worse color properties and stability due to the removal of coordinated water bonded with octahedral Mg2+. These findings confirmed that coordinated water molecules were the key to stabilizing indigo-sepiolite hybrid pigments by forming hydrogen bonds.
