Abstract
A method of making synthetic color pigments comprises synthesizing monodispersed colloidal core particles by precipitation from a solution and applying dye material to the core particles either by adsorption directly into the core particles or by adsorption or incorporation into alumina fixation shells at the surfaces of the core particles. Additional functional shells may be applied to the dyed core particles for various reasons. The pigments are useful for the coloration of various media such as printing inks and paint compositions.
