[0068] Comparative Example 1 (see CN106716190A)
[0069] 90g of sulfonyl chloride (Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.), 105g of anhydrous aluminum chloride (Tianjin Yongda Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd.), 14g of sodium chloride (Tianjin Yongda Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd.), 27g of zinc phthalocyanine (Lily Group Co., Ltd.), and 45g of bromine (Tianjin Yongda Chemical Reagent Co., Ltd.) were added to a reactor, and the temperature was raised to 130℃ and maintained for 1 hour. After the temperature maintenance, the reaction product was poured into an ice-water mixture, and a solid precipitated out. The solid was filtered, and the filter cake was washed with water to obtain zinc halide phthalocyanine B (average bromine number of 8.6 and average chlorine number of 2.5).
[0070] 3g of zinc halide phthalocyanine B, 27g of concentrated sulfuric acid (Chengdu Kelong Chemical Co., Ltd.), 5g of phthalimide (Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.), and 2g of paraformaldehyde (Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.) were heated at 80℃ for 1 hour, poured into water, and the solid precipitated out. After filtration, the filter cake was washed with water and dried to obtain phthalimide-methylated zinc halide phthalocyanine derivative (the average number of methyl substitutions of phthalimide was 0.6).
[0071] 19g of crude zinc halide phthalocyanine pigment A, 1g of phthalimide-methylated zinc halide phthalocyanine derivative, 140g of sodium chloride (250 mesh) and 32g of diethylene glycol (Shanghai Maclean Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.) were kneaded using the kneading process described in Application Example 1 to obtain pigment composition Da.
[0072] Comparative Example 2 (see CN115667416A)
[0073] 30g of crude zinc halide phthalocyanine pigment A and 600g of water were slurried into a uniform slurry. The pH of the system was adjusted to 5.5 with dilute hydrochloric acid. The mixture was then transferred to a high-pressure sealed autoclave and slowly heated to 200℃ and pressured at 1.55MPa over 2 hours. The mixture was kept at 200℃ for 5 hours and then cooled to room temperature. After filtration, the filter cake was washed with water, dried, and pulverized to obtain pigment composition Db.
[0074] Application Example 6
[0075] 75g of zirconium beads (0.3~0.4mm), 23.66g of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, 2.48g of BYK-LPN6919 (manufactured by BYK Chemical Company, a methacrylic acid AB block copolymer (LPN6919), amine value 121mg-KOH / g, solid content 60%), and 11.81g of acrylic resin (solid content 40%) were placed in different containers with 4.96g of the pigment composition (Ga~Ge and Da~Db) described above, and dispersed by shaking for 2 hours to obtain pigment composition slurries (CGa~CGe and CDa~CDb).
[0076] The pigment composition slurries (CGa~CGe and CDa~CDb) were uniformly coated onto soda-lime glass substrates using a spin coater. For each sample, three glass substrates with different coating thicknesses were obtained by adjusting the spin coater speed to 500 rpm, 1000 rpm, and 1500 rpm. After spin coating, the glass substrates were dried at 150°C for 1 minute on a heating plate, followed by baking at 230°C for 1 hour. The chromaticity coordinates (x, y, Y) of the coatings (samples) on the glass substrates before and after baking were measured using a colorimeter. Simultaneously, the contrast ratio of the samples after baking at 230°C for 1 hour was measured using a contrast analyzer. The results are shown in Table 1. The pigment particle size was tested using a Malvern particle size analyzer, and the viscosity was measured using a Brinell rotational viscometer. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0077] A higher contrast ratio indicates better sample quality. Changes in the chromaticity coordinates (x) before and after baking, especially changes in luminance (y), are also important; smaller changes in y indicate better sample quality. Furthermore, the viscosity and viscosity stability of the pigment are also crucial indicators for product evaluation. Particle size data serves as a supplementary reference; smaller particle sizes generally result in higher contrast, and more uniform particle size distribution typically correlates with better viscosity and viscosity stability.
