Abstract
Abstract An α-indanthrone pigment having improved tinctorial and technological properties is produced by swelling γ-indanthrone in sulfuric acid of from 73 to 80 percent strength by weight at from 20° to 50° C. in the presence of from 0.1 to 20% by weight, based on indanthrone, of a hydroxylammonium salt, a hydrazinium salt, amidosulfonic acid, urea, a salt of urea, formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde or a mixture of these. After precipitation in water which may or may not contain a surfactant, at below 50° C., an α-indanthrone pigment of high tinctorial strength is obtained, which gives clear and pure colorations and is easily dispersible.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
In a process for the manufacture of a pigmentary form of α-indanthrone by swelling γ-indanthrone in sulfuric acid of from 73 to 80 percent strength by weight at from 20° to 50° C., and precipitating the mixture in water at below 50° C., and isolating the precipitated pigment, the improvement that the swelling is carried out in the presence of from 0.1 to 20 percent by weight, based on indanthrone, of a hydroxylammonium salt, of a hydrazinium salt, amidosulfonic acid, urea, a salt of urea, formaldehyde, paraformaldehyde, or a mixture thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
