  • Patent number: 10899960
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a nanostructured phosphorescent pigment comprising an Al2O3 substrate; MAl2O4:X nanocrystals, where M is a cation selected from Ca2+, Sr2+, Ba2+, Mg2+, Zn3+ and combinations thereof and where X is a cation selected from Eu3+, Dy3+, Nd3+, Er3+, La3+, Lu3+, Ce3+, Y3+, Gd3+, Tb3+, Tm3+, Yb3+ and combinations thereof, disposed on the Al2O3 substrate; and nanocrystals of molten salt disposed on the MAl2O4:X nanocrystals. Additionally, the invention relates to a method for preparing the nanostructured phosphorescent pigment of the invention comprising the steps of i) mixing starting materials comprising a cation M precursor, a cation X precursor, Al2O3 and a molten salt; ii) heating the mixture resulting from step (i) in reducing atmosphere.
