This study investigated the synergistic effect that the co-doping of cobalt and copper elements has on Jun porcelain glazes. The phase composition of the glazes was analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The sample morphology and phase separation structure of the glazes were examined using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The element composition and valence state of the glazes were analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The element distribution of the glazes was studied using an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS). Our research shows that the distribution of the Co and Cu elements in the glaze layer is random, and indicates the presence of a liquidliquid phase separation structure in the glazes. The coloring of the glazes is primarily related to the content of the cobalt and copper elements, the valence state of the coloring ions, and the micro-morphology. Additionally, there is an obvious synergistic effect between the coloring metal elements Co and Cu.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
