Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a process for making phosphorus-containing anticorrosive pigments having a size of at most 20 microns by reacting one or more compounds of magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, zinc, aluminum, iron, chromium or manganese with an oxygen acid of phosphorus or its alkali metal or ammonium salts at temperatures within the range 10° to 100° C. More particularly pigments consisting to an extent of at least 90% of particles with a size between 0.05 and 8 microns are produced by introducing an aqueous suspension or solution of the reactants into a dispersing means rotating at a speed of 3000 to 10,000 rpm, reacting the reactants by intimately mixing them, and separating and drying precipitated pigment.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
121 words
In a process for making phosphorus-containing anticorrosive pigments having a size of at most 20 microns by reacting at least one compound of the metals selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, zinc, aluminum, iron, chromium and manganese with an oxygen acid of phosphorus or an alkali metal or ammonium salt of said acid at temperatures within the range 10° to 100° C., the improvement which comprises: intimately mixing and thereby reacting an aqueous suspension or solution of the reactants inside a dispersing means rotating at a speed of 3000 to 10,000 rpm, separating and drying precipitated pigment, the pigment consisting to an extent of at least 90% of particles with a size between 0.05 and 8 microns.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
121 words
In a process for making phosphorus-containing anticorrosive pigments having a size of at most 20 microns by reacting at least one compound of the metals selected from the group consisting of magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium, zinc, aluminum, iron, chromium and manganese with an oxygen acid of phosphorus or an alkali metal or ammonium salt of said acid at temperatures within the range 10° to 100° C., the improvement which comprises: intimately mixing and thereby reacting an aqueous suspension or solution of the reactants inside a dispersing means rotating at a speed of 3000 to 10,000 rpm, separating and drying precipitated pigment, the pigment consisting to an extent of at least 90% of particles with a size between 0.05 and 8 microns.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
92 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein an aqueous 10 to 50 weight % suspension of zinc oxide is reacted, inside the dispersing means, with orthophosphoric acid of 20 to 85 weight % strength and a molar ratio of zinc oxide to orthophosphoric acid of at least 1.5 is established so as to avoid acid pH-values in the reaction mixture, with the resultant formation of zinc phosphate of the formula Zn 3 (PO 4 ) 2 .×H 2 O, in which x stands for a number of 0 to 4 inclusive.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process as claimed in claim 2, wherein the zinc oxide suspension is pumped through the dispersing means and admixed therein with metered proportions of orthophosphoric acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the process is effected continuously and the two reactants are introduced jointly into the dispersing means.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
34 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the process is effected discontinuously and one of the reactants is circulated through the dispersing means and admixed therein with an aqueous solution of the other.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction mixture is circulated by pumping it through the dispersing means over a period of 0.5 to 5 hours.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein mother liquor, which is retained after separation of precipitated pigment, is used for dissolving or suspending the reactants therein.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
18 words
The process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the dispersing means is a screw pump or emulsifying means.
