| abstract |
The invention relates to a pigment granulate which contains 40 to 65% by weight of pigment and at least 10% by weight of a compound of general formula (I) CH3-(CH2)n-CH2-O-[(CH2)p-O]m-H, wherein n=8-18, p=1-4 and m=35-100, the weight ratio of the compound of general formula I to the pigment being = the STSA surface area of the pigment in m²/g multiplied by 0.0021 g/m² and the mass-weighted particle size of the pigment granulate being <20 µm. The pigment granulate can be produced by dispersing the pigment and the compound of formula I in a solvent and then drying the dispersion obtained. The pigments according to the invention can be used for dying and/or the antistatic finishing in water-based paints and lacquer systems, dispersion paints, printing inks, ink systems and coating systems. |
