Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for producing a carbon black and to carbon black obtained by such process as well as the use of such carbon black. The present invention further relates to compositions including such carbon black and uses of such compositions and articles prepared from such compositions.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a solid pigment preparation, including at least one pigment in an aqueous solution including an amine-functional acrylic block copolymer and an amine-functional polymeric dispersant including a polyoxyalkylene moiety, as well as a process for producing the solid pigment preparations and their use in various coloring applications. The solid pigment preparations are particularly universally dispersible in both water- and solvent-based systems. Corresponding dispersions are accordingly also within the scope of the present disclosure.

Abstract: A universal pigment preparation including a flocculation-stabilizing medium including (a1) reaction products of di- or polycarboxylic acids or hydroxycarboxylic acids with di- or polyols, and (a2) reaction products of alkylene oxides with alkoxylatable compounds, and at least one pigment. Paints, varnishes, printing inks, coating materials, floor coatings, potting compounds and filling compounds may be made using the universal pigment preparation.
