Abstract

Abstract Strong, transparent and readily dispersible copper phthalocyanine pigments are obtained by grinding the crude pigment in the presence of from 1 to 10% by weight (based on the crude pigment) of an organic liquid at from 90° to 140° C., the pigment forms obtained giving printing inks with very good flow characteristics.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 90 words
A process for preparing a strong, transparent and readily dispersible copper phthalocyanine pigment of the β-modification consisting of grinding crude copper phthalocyanine in the absence of any grinding aids in the presence of from 1 to 10% by weight, based on the crude pigment, an organic liquid selected from the group consisting of di-C 1 -C 12 -alkyl phthalate, N-methylpyrrolidone, diethylene glycol, butoxyethanol, phenoxyethanol, ethylene glycol acetate, ethylene glycol diacetate and mixtures thereof, at from 90° to 140° C., and then recrystallizing the mill base in an aqueous organic phase.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 90 words
A process for preparing a strong, transparent and readily dispersible copper phthalocyanine pigment of the β-modification consisting of grinding crude copper phthalocyanine in the absence of any grinding aids in the presence of from 1 to 10% by weight, based on the crude pigment, an organic liquid selected from the group consisting of di-C 1 -C 12 -alkyl phthalate, N-methylpyrrolidone, diethylene glycol, butoxyethanol, phenoxyethanol, ethylene glycol acetate, ethylene glycol diacetate and mixtures thereof, at from 90° to 140° C., and then recrystallizing the mill base in an aqueous organic phase.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the amount of organic liquid is from 2 to 5% by weight, based on crude pigment.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the grinding takes place at from 100° to 120° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the organic liquid used is di-C 1 -C 12 -alkyl phthalate.
