Abstract
Stable pigmented coating composition, suitable as a package coating varnish or ink, including newsprint ink or rotogravure ink, comprises a suspension of at least 10 weight % pigment in an aqueous solution of at least 5 weight % water soluble modified rosin, the water-soluble modified rosin having an acid number of at least 150 and comprising the reaction product of rosin, formaldehyde and at least one of an ortho- or para-carboxyl-substituted phenol. The weight ratio of pigment to resin is from 5:1 to 1:5.
