Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by converting crude CuPc the pigmentary CuPc by salt milling, solvent treatment or acid pasting in the presence of 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the weight of crude CuPc, of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc, obtained together with CuPc and chlorinated CuPc by replacing from 0.5 to 25% by weight of the phthalic anhydride used to prepare CuPc or chlorinated CuPc by an equivalent amount of 3,4,6-trichloro-5-phenoxy-2-cyanobenzoic acid alkyl or phenyl ester.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
95 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by converting crude CuPc the pigmentary CuPc by salt milling, solvent treatment or acid pasting in the presence of 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the weight of crude CuPc, of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc, obtained together with CuPc and chlorinated CuPc by replacing from 0.5 to 25% by weight of the phthalic anhydride used to prepare CuPc or chlorinated CuPc by an equivalent amount of 3,4,6-trichloro-5-phenoxy-2-cyanobenzoic acid alkyl or phenyl ester.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
25 words
A composition according to claim 1 where in the pigment of component (b) the amount of trichlorophenoxy CuPc is from 2 to 10% by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
81 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by (i) first converting crude CuPc into pigmentary form by dissolving in acid and then precipitating in water, and then (ii) milling the precipitate from step (i) in the presence of 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the precipitate from step (i), of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc to convert the mixture of pigments into the heat-stable pigmentary form.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
81 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by (i) first converting crude CuPc into pigmentary form by dissolving in acid and then precipitating in water, and then (ii) milling the precipitate from step (i) in the presence of 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the precipitate from step (i), of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc to convert the mixture of pigments into the heat-stable pigmentary form.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
67 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by mixing crude CuPc with 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the crude CuPc, of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc, and then subjecting the mixture of crude pigments to salt milling or to acid pasting to convert the crude pigments into the heat-stable pigmentary form.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
67 words
A pigmented composition which comprises (a) a paint or ink, and (b) an effective pigmenting amount of a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) pigment prepared by mixing crude CuPc with 0.5 to 30% by weight, based on the crude CuPc, of crude trichlorophenoxy CuPc, and then subjecting the mixture of crude pigments to salt milling or to acid pasting to convert the crude pigments into the heat-stable pigmentary form.
