| abstract |
The present invention relates to easily distributable pigment compositions consisting essentially of pigment and urea-aldehyde resin, wherein the weight ratio of pigment to urea-aldehyde resin is generally in the range of 40:60 to 90:10, a process for their production and their use in pigmenting high molecular weight organic materials. Due to the excellent dispersibility of the pigment compositions of this invention, uniform distribution of pigment particles throughout the entire application media and, therefore, excellent color consistency is readily achieved. Products, for example solvent paints, spread coatings and powder coatings, comprising the stir-in pigment compositions show high color strength, high gloss and low haze as well as very good light fastness and weathering fastness. |
