{"product_id":"cobalt-zinc-green-pigment","title":"Cobalt Zinc Green Pigment","description":"\u003cp\u003eCobalt Zinc Green (PG19) is a single pigment of cobalt zinc oxide, the historical cobalt green known as Rinmann's Green. It produces a cool, slightly bluish green with a rich masstone. It has low tinting strength and is semi-transparent to semi-opaque, giving refined greens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn use, Cobalt Zinc Green is ideal for soft foliage, atmospheric landscapes, sea greens and delicate glazes. It mixes cleanly with yellows for natural greens and with earths for soft, muted tones. It is chemically stable, extremely lightfast and suitable for every binder, including lime and fresco.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistory\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCobalt green was discovered in 1780 by the Swedish chemist Sven Rinman, which is why it is still called Rinmann's Green. It was made by heating cobalt and zinc oxides together. Although it appeared on artists' color lists in the 19th century, it remained expensive and weak in tinting strength, so it was never widely used. Today it is valued as one of the earliest synthetic greens and a gentle, permanent historical color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Information\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePigment Type: Synthetic (Inorganic) cobalt zinc oxide\u003cbr\u003eSource: Cobalt and zinc oxides, calcined at high temperature\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: China\u003cbr\u003eSuitable Mediums: Watercolor, Oil, Tempera, Acrylic, Encaustic, Casein, Lime \/ Fresco\u003cbr\u003eLightfastness: Excellent\u003cbr\u003eOpacity: Semi-transparent to semi-opaque\u003cbr\u003eOther Names: Rinmann's Green, Cobalt Green, Zinc Green, Swedish Green\u003cbr\u003eColor Index Code: PG19\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHealth and Safety\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor art use only.
