Abstract

Abstract A luster pigment is described which is made up of a metal oxide film on a colored platelet-like support. The support is a pigment having a length of 3-150 μm, a width of 3-150 μm, and a thickness of 0.1-2 μm. A process is described for the preparation of the pigment in which an organic platelet-like pigment is coated with a metal-oxide film by chemical vapor deposition. The preferred platelet-like organic pigment is β-copper phthalocyanine.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 52 words
A luster pigment compound of a metal oxide film on a colored platelet-like support particle, wherein the support particle is a platelet-like organic color pigment particle having the dimensions of from 3 to 150 μm in length, from 3 to 150 μm in width and from 0.1 to 2 μm in thickness.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 52 words
A luster pigment compound of a metal oxide film on a colored platelet-like support particle, wherein the support particle is a platelet-like organic color pigment particle having the dimensions of from 3 to 150 μm in length, from 3 to 150 μm in width and from 0.1 to 2 μm in thickness.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
A luster pigment as claimed in claim 1, wherein the organic color pigment is β-copper phthalocyanine.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A luster pigment as claimed in claim 1, having a film of alternating layers of different metal oxides.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 59 words
A process for the production of a luster pigment according to claim 1, where vaporous chlorides of titanium, vanadium or zirconium are introduced into a fluidized bed of an organic platelet-like color pigment particle and reacted with water vapor to form the corresponding oxides of said metals which are deposited as a film on the organic platelet-like pigment particle.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 41 words
A process according to claim 4, where the amount of the vapors of the chlorides of titanium, vanadium or zirconium does not exceed 5% by volume based on the total amount of other gases or vapors introduced into the fluidized bed.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 61 words
A process for the production of a luster pigment according to claim 1, wherein vapors of the carbonyl compounds FE(CO) 5 and Cr(CO) 6 are introduced into a fluidized bed of an organic platelet-like color pigment particle and reacted with oxygen to form the corresponding oxides of said metals which are deposited as a film on the organic platelet-like pigment particle.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 39 words
A process according to claim 6, wherein the amount of the vapors of FE(CO) 5 and Cr(CO) 6 do not exceed 5% by volume based on the total amount of other gases or vapors introduced into the fluidized bed.
