Abstract: Coloring compositions for use in the formation of transparent colored micro-patterns are provided. They comprise colorants, thermosetting or photosensitive resin materials and extenders having an average particle size of not more than 300 nm. The compositions are useful for the fabrication of color filters to be used for display elements such as liquid crystal display (LCD) and solid state imaging devices such as charge-coupled device (CCD). The formed patterns have lower fluctuation in colored layer thickness all over the patterns, superior layer flatness, color levelness and sharpness of pattern boundaries, as well as large purity, clarity and color brightness.

Abstract: A black coating composition comprising a light-screening material and a macromolecular material wherein the light-screening material consists of particles having a multiple particle size distribution has high light-screening properties, is excellent in storage stability, dispersion stability and coating efficiency, and is satisfactory in other characteristics required of the light-screening thin film of a color filter used in a liquid crystal display device or the like.

Abstract: A disperse dye composition comprising (a) a pyridone monoazo compound of the formula (I), ##STR1## wherein X.sup.1 and X.sup.2 are each hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy or others, and R.sup.1 is alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl or anilino, and (b) a pyridone monoazo compound of the formula (II). ##STR2## wherein X.sup.3 and X.sup.4 are each hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy or others, and R.sup.2 is alkyl, alkenyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl or anilino, optionally together with (c) a quinophthalone compound of the formula (III), ##STR3## wherein Y is hydrogen or bromine, and the ring A is unsubstituted or substituted benzene or naphthalene ring, which is useful as a yellow dye component for dyeing or printing hydrophobic fiber materials with superior dye bath stability and level dyeing property.

Abstract: A system for processing chromatographic data which comprises an input for data representative of two chromatograms x and y, a memory for storing the inputted data of the chromatograms, and a computer operative to read out, from the memory, retention times x.sub.i and y.sub.i (i=1, . . . , n; n.gtoreq.2) of at least two principal peaks of the chromatograms, respectively, and derive one function for converting the retention times x.sub.i to y.sub.i using the chromatogram y as the reference chromatogram, which gives a minimum estimated error. The computer is further operative to calculate, on the basis of the derived function, the modified retention time x'.sub.j of all the peaks of the chromatogram x. Therefore, the system permits to eliminate errors orginated from the judgment of a skilled person and to indentify and quantitatively analyze chromatogram obtained precisely without skill.

Abstract: An aqueous liquid dye composition containing 10 to 50 parts by weight of C.I. Reactive Blue 19, 1 to 40 parts by weight of a condensation product of formaldehyde with naphthalenesulfonic acid which may be alkylated, 0.1 to 10 parts by weight of a nonionic surfactant having an HLB of 9 to 20, and 20 to 80 parts by weight of water. This liquid dye composition has a good storage stability, and shows a sufficient solubility in an aqueous alkali liquor so that it is particularly suitable for dyeing cellulosic fibers by a one-bath pad-batch method.
