Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
A colorant preparation comprising: (A) a colorant which is sparingly soluble in water in an amount of 5-70% by weight; (B) a plasticiser based on an ester in an amount of 30-95% by weight; (C) an ethoxylated castor oil in the amount of 0.1-10% by weight, the weights of components (A), (B) and (C) being based upon the total quantity of components (A), (B) and (C).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
A colorant preparation comprising: (A) a colorant which is sparingly soluble in water in an amount of 5-70% by weight; (B) a plasticiser based on an ester in an amount of 30-95% by weight; (C) an ethoxylated castor oil in the amount of 0.1-10% by weight, the weights of components (A), (B) and (C) being based upon the total quantity of components (A), (B) and (C).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 50 words
A colorant preparation according to claim 1, wherein said colorant which is sparingly soluble in water is present in an amount of 10-60% by weight, said plasticiser is present in an amount of 40-90% by weight and said ethoxylated castor oil is present in an amount of 0.5-5% by weight.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 28 words
A colorant preparation according to claim 1, wherein said castor oil is one which has been ethoxylated with 4-10 mols of ethylene oxide per mol of castor oil.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 8 words
Preparation according to claim 1, containing a pigment.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 8 words
Preparation according to claim 1, containing an adipate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 53 words
Preparations according to claim 1, containing the reaction product of ethylene oxide with the ester of a fatty acid with up to 18 C atoms and an alcohol with 3-6 OH groups and 3-6 C atoms, in which 3-25 mols of ethylene oxide have been added on per mol of fatty acid ester.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
Preparation according to claim 1, containing a reaction product of a fat and/or ester-oil and ethylene oxide.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 58 words
Process for the production of a preparation according to claim 1, characterised in that a colorant which is sparingly soluble or insoluble in water, a plasticiser based on an ester, and a reaction product of a fatty acid ester of a polyhydric alcohol and ethylene oxide are mixed in wet comminution units in a manner known per se.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 13 words
