Abstract

A process for the preparation of x-metal free phthalocyanine which comprises (i) initially preparing a mixture of alpha- and x-metal free phthalocyanines from alpha-phthalocyanine with a grinding or mixing device, (ii) converting the above mixture to x-metal free phthalocyanine by the addition of an organic solvent, (iii) separating the x-metal free phthalocyanine therefrom, and thereafter washing the x-metal free phthalocyanine with a basic solution.
