Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An object is to provide phthalocyanine pigment compositions that have good transparency, gloss, and suitability in the initial viscosity after production as well as outstanding storage stability when used in liquid ink. A copper phthalocyanine pigment composition containing copper phthalocyanine, a rosin compound, copper phthalocyanine sulfonic acid or its salt, and an aliphatic amine with the calcium content of the pigment composition being 200 ppm or less has good transparency, gloss, and suitability in the initial viscosity after production as well as outstanding storage stability when used in liquid ink.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A copper phthalocyanine pigment composition comprising copper phthalocyanine, a rosin compound, copper phthalocyanine sulfonic acid or a salt thereof, and an aliphatic amine, a calcium content of the pigment composition being 200 ppm or less. 2. A method for producing the copper phthalocyanine pigment composition according to claim 1 , the method comprising a first step including dry-milling crude copper phthalocyanine into a pre-pigment and a second step including treating the pre-pigment obtained in the first step by mixing the pre-pigment with an organic solvent or a liquid mixture of an organic solvent and water in the presence of copper phthalocyanine sulfonic acid or a salt thereof. 3. The method for producing a copper phthalocyanine pigment composition according to claim 2 , wherein a calcium content of process water used in the second step is 10 ppm or less. 4. The method for producing a copper phthalocyanine pigment composition according to claim 2 , wherein in the second step, the liquid mixture of an organic solvent and water is an emulsion conditioned with the rosin compound. 5. A base ink for liquid ink, the base ink comprising 20% or more the copper phthalocyanine pigment composition according to claim 1 . 6. A base ink for liquid ink, the base ink comprising 20% or more copper phthalocyanine pigment composition obtained in the method for producing a copper phthalocyanine pigment composition according to claim 2 . 7. The base ink for liquid ink according to claim 5 , wherein the base ink for liquid ink is based on nitrocellulose resin.
