  • Patent number: 11370713
    Abstract: Method for manufacturing a composite material combining a metal oxide or metalloid based matrix suited for allowing light to pass, and a mineral pigment dispersed in the matrix, the method comprising a step of mixing the mineral pigment in powder form with the matrix in powder form, and a step of sintering of the mixture under sufficient pressure such that the densification temperature of the matrix under said pressure is below the breakdown temperature of the mineral pigment, where the sintering temperature is greater than or equal to the densification temperature of the matrix and below the breakdown temperature of the mineral pigment.
