Abstract

The invention relates to single phase solid solutions containing 65 to 98 wt.-% unsubstituted quinacridone, 1 to 34 wt.-% 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 1 to 10 wt.-% 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the single phase solid solution.

Claims (15)

1. A single phase solid solution comprising 65 to 98 wt.-% unsubstituted quinacridone, 1 to 34 wt.-% 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 1 to 10 wt.-% 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the single phase solid solution.

2. The single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 , comprising 69 to 85 wt.-% unsubstituted quinacridone, 5 to 25 wt.-% 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 5 to 10 wt.-% 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the single phase solid solution.

3. The single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 consisting of 65 to 98 wt. % of unsubstituted quinacridone, 1 to 34 wt. % of 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 1 to 10 wt.-%, 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the quinacridone single phase solid solution.

4. The single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 , having a chroma of 74>C>60, determined in mass tone for an alkyd-melamine stoving lacquer.

5. A method for preparing a single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 , comprising the steps of condensing 65 to 98 wt.-% of anilinoterephthalic acid, 1 to 34 wt.-% of 2,9-dimethylanilinoterephthalic acid, and 1 to 10 wt.-% of 2,9-dichloroanilinoterephthalic acid in polyphosphoric acid or its ester at 100 to 150° C. to form a melt, hydrolyzing the melt with water or with aqueous ortho-phosphoric acid at a temperature of 0 to 150° C. to form the solid solution and isolating the solid solution.

6. The method as claimed in claim 5 , comprising a solvent treatment with an organic solvent, water or both at a temperature of 80 to 180° C.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the organic solvent is a butanol.

8. A high molecular weight organic material of natural or synthetic origin colored by the single phase solid as claimed in claim 1 .

9. The high molecular weight organic material of natural or synthetic origin as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the high molecular weight organic material is a plastic, resin or coating material.

10. The high molecular weight organic material of natural or synthetic origin claimed in claim 9 , wherein the high molecular weight organic material of natural or synthetic origin is an electrophotographic toner, electrophotographic developer or a color filter.

11. An ink colored by the single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 .

12. The ink as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the ink is an inkjet ink.

13. The single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 consisting of 69 to 90 wt.-% of unsubstituted quinacridone, 2 to 25 wt.-% of 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 5 to 10 wt.-%, of 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the quinacridone single phase solid solution.

14. The single phase solid solution as claimed in claim 1 consisting of 69 to 85 wt.-% of unsubstituted quinacridone, 5 to 25 wt.-%, of 2,9-dimethylquinacridone and 5 to 10 wt.-%, of 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, relative to the total weight of the quinacridone single phase solid solution.

15. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the organic solvent is iso-butanol.
