Abstract

The invention relates to a colored β-nucleated polypropylene composition having a high content of β-modification, wherein the polypropylene composition comprises at least one β-nucleating agent and an inorganic blue pigment and an inorganic yellow pigment.

Claims (22)

1. A green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition having a high content of β-modification, wherein the polypropylene composition comprises at least one β-nucleating agent and an inorganic blue pigment and an inorganic yellow pigment, and wherein

(a) the inorganic blue pigment is selected from the group consisting of C.I. pigment blue 28 (CAS No. 68186-86-7), C.I. pigment blue 36 (CAS No. 68187-11-1), C.I. pigment blue 36:1 (CAS No. 74665-01-3), C.I. pigment blue 72 (CAS No. 68186-87-8), C.I. pigment blue 29 (CAS No. 57455-37-5), C.I. pigment blue 35 (CAS No. 68187-05-3) and mixtures thereof, and

(b) the inorganic yellow pigment is selected from the group consisting of C.I. pigment yellow 53 (CAS No. 71077-18-4), C.I. pigment yellow 119 (CAS No. 68187-51-9), C.I. pigment yellow 157 (CAS No. 68610-24-2), C.I. pigment yellow 161 (CAS No. 68611-43-8), C.I. pigment yellow 162 (CAS No. 68611-42-7), C.I. pigment yellow 163 (CAS No. 68186-92-5), C.I. pigment yellow 164 (CAS No. 68412-38-4), C.I. pigment yellow 184 (CAS No. 1405933-7), C.I. pigment yellow 189 (CAS No. 69011-05-8) and mixtures thereof.

2. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic blue pigment is selected from the group consisting of C.I. pigment blue 28 (CAS No. 68186-86-7), C.I. pigment blue 36 (CAS No. 68187-11-1), C.I. pigment blue 36:1 (CAS No. 74665-01-3), C.I. pigment blue 72 (CAS No. 68186-87-8) and mixtures thereof.

3. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic blue pigment is C.I. pigment blue 28 (CAS No. 68186-86-7).

4. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the inorganic yellow pigment is C.I. pigment yellow 184 (CAS No. 14059-33-7).

5. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the polypropylene is selected from the group consisting of propylene homopolymers, propylene random copolymers, propylene heterophasic copolymers and mixtures thereof.

6. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one β-nucleating agent is selected from the group consisting of N,N′-dicyclohexyl-2,6-naphthalene dicarboxamide, 5,12-dihydro-quino (2,3-b)acridine-7,14-dione, quino(2,3-b)acridine-6,7,13,14(5H,12H)-tetrone, salts of dicarboxylic acids with at least 7 carbon atoms with metals of group II of the periodic table, and mixtures thereof.

7. A green coloured polypropylene composition according to claim 1 , wherein the β-nucleating agent comprises quino(2,3-b)acridine-6,7,13,14(5H,12H)-tetrone and 5,12-dihydro-quino(2,3-b)acridine-7,14-dione.

8. Process for producing a green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition having a high content of β-modification, wherein polypropylene, a β-nucleating agent, an inorganic blue pigment and an inorganic yellow pigment are melt blended, and wherein

9. Moulded article, comprising, a green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition having a high content of β-modification, wherein the polypropylene composition comprises at least one β-nucleating agent and an inorganic blue pigment and an inorganic yellow pigment, and wherein

(b) the inorganic yellow pigment is selected from the group consisting of C.I. pigment Yellow 53 (CAS No. 71077-18-4), C.I. pigment yellow 119 (CAS No. 68187-51-9), C.I. pigment yellow 157 (CAS No. 68610-24-2), C.I. pigment yellow 161 (CAS No. 68611-43-8), C.I. pigment yellow 162 (CAS No. 68611-42-7), C.I. pigment yellow 163 (CAS No. 68186-92-5), C.I. pigment yellow 164 (CAS No. 68412-38-4), C.I. pigment yellow 184 (CAS No. 1405933-7), C.I. pigment yellow 189 (CAS No. 69011-05-8) and mixtures thereof.

10. Pipe, comprising, a green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition having a high content of β-modification, wherein the polypropylene composition comprises at least one β-nucleating agent and an inorganic blue pigment and an inorganic yellow pigment, and wherein

11. Process for producing a green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition according to claim 8 , the β-nucleating agent comprises quino(2,3-b)acridine-6,7,13,14(5H,12H)-tetrone and 5,12-dihydro-quino(2,3-b)acridine-7,14-dione.

12. Process for producing a green coloured β-nucleated polypropylene composition according to claim 8 , the polypropylene is selected from the group consisting of propylene homopolymers, propylene random copolymers, propylene heterophasic copolymers and mixtures thereof.
