Abstract
Abstract A process for the preparation of deeply colored organic pigments by crystallizing finely divided crude organic pigments, whose primary particles have a size of ≦0.2 μm, in C 3 -C 5 -alkanes, C 3 -C 5 -alkenes or C 1 -C 3 -chloroalkanes at from 40° to 250° C. to under atmospheric pressure or superatmospheric pressure, and isolating the pigment. The pigments obtained by the process give deep, brilliant colorations.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A process for conditioning a crude organic pigment selected from the group consisting of phthalocyanine pigments, anthraquinone pigments, perylenetetracarboxylic acid diimides, quinophthalone pigments, indanthrone pigments, pyranthrone pigments, flavanthrone pigments, violanthrone pigments, isoviolanthrone pigments, quinacridone pigments, thioindigo pigments and indigo pigments, comprising: recrystallizing said pigment as a finely divided material of agglomerates of a size ranging from 1-200 μm, the primary particles which constitute said agglomerates being of ≦0.2 μm, in a hot organic liquid selected from the group consisting of a C 3 -C 5 -alkane, a C 3 -C 5 -alkene and a C 1 -C 3 -chloroalkane in the critical or supercritical state up to 250° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
