Copper phthalocyanine pigment process.

摘要

Premilled semichloro copper phthalocyanine or partially sulfonated semichloro copper phthalocyanine is slurried and stirred with sulforic acid (50-60% and preferably 55-59% in the case of semichloro copper phthalocyanine and 50-61% and preferably 58-61% in the PHF case of partially sulfonated semichloro copper phthalocyanine) at 50°-85°C, preferably 65°-75°C for ½ to 4 hours. The slurry is diluted with to less than 35% sulfuric acid concentration and stirred at 60°-95°C for ½ to 4 hours. The resulting highly transparent pigment is filtered and dried.
