Many black paints contain more or less pure carbon (coal, soot). The most important of these is soot, prepared either from resin, tar, petroleum oils or from gas (gas soot).
The best grades are prepared by burning paraffin oils in special lamps, producing what is known as lamp black. Crushed wood and bone charcoal (burnt ivory, Frankfurt black) are also used as black paints.

Mineral paints are a type of paint that uses mineral substances as coloring pigments.
Scope of application of mineral paints
Mineral paints can be used to restore decorative facade coatings, restore the plaster layer on facades when the walls are made of brick or concrete.
Mineral paints are usually sold in the form of powders and dry mixtures; to use them, they must be diluted with water in the required proportion. Thus, such paints are water-based. Naturally, the application of pigments dissolved in water is possible only at positive air temperatures.
