ʻO ka pigment hao oxide kahi ʻano pigment me ka hoʻopuehu maikaʻi, ke kūpaʻa maikaʻi loa i ka mālamalama a me ke kūpaʻa i ka wā. ʻO nā pigment hao oxide e pili nui ana i ʻehā ʻano pigment kala, ʻo ia hoʻi ka hao oxide ʻulaʻula, ka hao melemele, ka hao ʻeleʻele a me ka hao brown, me ka hao oxide oxide ma ke ʻano he mea kumu. I waena o lākou, ʻo ka hao oxide ʻulaʻula ke kala nui (e helu ana ma kahi o 50% o nā pigment hao oxide). ʻO ka hao oxide micaceous i hoʻohana ʻia ma ke ʻano he pigment antirust a me ka hao oxide magnetic i hoʻohana ʻia ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻopaʻa magnetic e pili ana hoʻi i ka māhele o nā pigment hao oxide. ʻO ka hao oxide ka lua o ka pigment inorganic nui loa ma hope o ka titanium keʻokeʻo, a ʻo ia hoʻi ka pigment inorganic kala nui loa. No ka huina o ka hoʻopau ʻana o nā pigment hao oxide, ʻoi aku ma mua o 70% i hoʻomākaukau ʻia e ka synthesis kemika, i kapa ʻia ʻo synthetic iron oxide. Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka synthetic iron oxide i nā mea kūkulu hale, nā uhi, nā plastics, nā mea uila, ka paka, ka lāʻau lapaʻau, ka rubber, nā keramika, ka ʻīnika, nā mea magnetic, ka hana pepa a me nā ʻoihana ʻē aʻe ma muli o kona maʻemaʻe synthetic kiʻekiʻe, ka nui o nā ʻāpana like, ka laulā o ke kala, ke kumukūʻai haʻahaʻa, ʻaʻohe ʻawaʻawa, ka hoʻoluʻu maikaʻi loa a me ka hana noi, a me ka hana absorption ultraviolet.

ʻAno 1. Hoʻopuehu maikaʻi
2. Maikaʻi loa i ka mālamalama a me ke kū'ē ʻana i ka wā
3. Ke kū'ē'ē'ana i ka waikawa
4. Ke kū'ē wai
5. Ke kū'ē'ē o ka mea ho'ohehe'e
6. Ke kū'ē ʻana i nā kemika ʻē aʻe
7. Ke kū'ē ʻana o ka alkali
8. Maikaʻi ka helu kala, ʻaʻohe kahe ʻana o ke kala a me ka neʻe ʻana
