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
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 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the swelling is carried out in the presence of from 1 to 8 percent by weight, based on indanthrone, of the agents named in claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the swelling is carried out in the presence of a hydroxylammonium salt, a hydrazinium salt, amidosulfonic acid or a mixture thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 24 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the swelling is carried out in the presence of formaldehyde or paraformaldehyde or a mixture thereof.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 109 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the swelling is carried out in the presence of a hydroxylammonium salt, a hydrazinium salt or amidosulfonic acid or a mixture of these, in sulfuric acid of from 75 to 76 percent stregth by weight, at from 20° to 30° C., the mixture of pigment and sulfuric acid is then introduced into from 3.5 to 6 parts by weight of water, per part by weight of sulfuric acid, in the presence of from 10 to 20 percent by weight, based on the pigment, of one or more non-ionic surfactants, at from 30° to 40° C., the pigment is then separated off.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 56 words
