  ABSTRACT: In this paper, we report the preparation of nickel phosphate in aqueous solution and its use as inorganic pigment. Because cerium phosphate is insoluble in acidic and basic solution, the addition of cerium was tried to improve the acid and base resistance of nickel phosphate pigment. The cerium substituted nickel phosphates were prepared from phosphoric acid, nickel nitrate, and ammonium cerium nitrate solution. The additional effects of tetravalent cerium cation were studied on the chemical composition, particle shape and size distribution, specific surface area, color, acid and base resistance of the precipitates and their thermal products.
