Abstract

Abstract In accordance with the instant invention, a high solids phthalocyanine pigment presscake prepared by methods well known to those skilled in the art is fluidized. The fluidization process comprises the steps of mixing the high solids pigment presscake with alkali metal hydroxide or ammonium hydroxide and rosin. In a preffered embodiment, the rosin, is dissolved in the hydroxide or aqueous solution thereof prior to mixing with the presscake.
