Abstract
Abstract Finished grade pigments are prepared from crude pigment precursors by conversion to aggregated low crystallinity pigment followed by milling the aggregated low crystallinity pigment in water having a pH of from 7 to 14 and from 5 to 25% based on pigment of a separate phase comprising an organic liquid which is effective in growing and improving the crystallinity of the pigment particles. The resulting material is extracted in dilute acid, washed free of acid and dried to produce the final finished grade pigment.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 14
Claim 1
Independent Claim
181 words
A process for the preparation of finished pigment which consists essentially of a quinacridone or quinacridone of the formula ##STR4## and solid solutions or mixtures thereof, with up to 15 wt. % of a quinacridone of the formula ##STR5## where R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , and R 6 are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, methyl or methoxy; R 7 , R 9 , and R 10 are hydrogen or chlorine; and R 8 is hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, nitro, alkyl groups of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkoxy groups of 1 or 2 carbon toms or benzoylamine, and m is an integer of from 1 to 4, from crude precursors by converting the crude precursor therefor to a low crystallinity aggregated form, followed by milling the low crystallinity pigment in water having a pH from 7 to 14 and from 5 to 25% by weight, based on pigment, of a separate phase comprising an organic liquid which is effective in improving the crystallinity of the pigment particles and recovering a pigmentary grade product.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
181 words
A process for the preparation of finished pigment which consists essentially of a quinacridone or quinacridone of the formula ##STR4## and solid solutions or mixtures thereof, with up to 15 wt. % of a quinacridone of the formula ##STR5## where R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , and R 6 are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, methyl or methoxy; R 7 , R 9 , and R 10 are hydrogen or chlorine; and R 8 is hydrogen, chlorine, bromine, nitro, alkyl groups of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkoxy groups of 1 or 2 carbon toms or benzoylamine, and m is an integer of from 1 to 4, from crude precursors by converting the crude precursor therefor to a low crystallinity aggregated form, followed by milling the low crystallinity pigment in water having a pH from 7 to 14 and from 5 to 25% by weight, based on pigment, of a separate phase comprising an organic liquid which is effective in improving the crystallinity of the pigment particles and recovering a pigmentary grade product.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the aggregated low crystallinity is prepared by dissolving crude pigment in concentrated sulfuric acid followed by drowning the solution in water to precipitate an aggregated low crystallinity composition.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
20 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the aggregated low crystallinity pigment is prepared by dry ball milling a crude pigment.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 3 wherein water has a pH of 9 to 13.5.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
38 words
The process of claim 4 wherein the organic liquid is selected from alcohols having from 4 to 8 carbon atoms, ketones having from 5 to 8 carbon atoms and halogenated aromatic compounds containing 6 to 8 carbon atoms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
11 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the organic liquid is pentanol.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
19 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the quinacridone consists essentially of 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and up to 5% by weight phthalimidomethylquinacridone.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
19 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the quinacridone consists essentially of 2,9-dichloroquinacridone and up to 5% by weight phthalimidomethylquinacridone.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the quinacridone is a solid solution consisting essentially of 2,9-dimethylquinacridone, quinacridone, and up to 5% by weight phthalimidomethylquinacridone.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 9 wherein the quinacridone is prepared in the presence of 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on quinacridone, of benzyl tributyl ammonium chloride.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process of claim 6 wherein the quinacridone is a solid solution consisting essentially of 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, quinacridone, and up to 5% by weight phthalimidomethylquinacridone.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 11 wherein the quinacridone is prepared in the presence of 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on quinacridone, of benzyl tributyl ammmonium chloride.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the quinacridone is prepared in the presence of 0.5 to 10% by weight, based on quinacridone, of benzyl tributyl ammonium chloride.
