Abstract

The invention relates to crimson-colored pigment mixtures comprising 1,4-diketo-2,5-dihydro-3,6-diarylpyrrolo[3,4c]pyrrole and quinacridone pigments in separate crystalline phases, having a high tinctorial strength combined with other excellent application properties. The pigments according to the invention can be used in printing inks, especially in printing inks for polychromatic printed products. A substantial constituent of the pigment mixtures according to the invention is 1,4-diketo-2,5-dihydro-3,6-di(4′-chlorophenyl)pyrrolo[3,4c]pyrrole or 2,9-dichloroquinacridone, which are subjected to kneading with a crystalline inorganic salt and a neutral organic liquid. The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of such pigment compositions, the use thereof in the production of printing inks, and such printing inks themselves.
