Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a colored liquid with superior separability from polar solvents for use with an electrowetting or electrofluidic device that uses a coloring agent added as a colorant to a nonpolar solvent. A colored liquid according to the present invention contains a nonpolar solvent and a colorant, and the colorant is a modified pigment containing a pigment (A) and a polymer (P) formed on a surface thereof by polymerizing a polymer (B) soluble in a nonaqueous solvent and at least one polymerizable unsaturated monomer (C) that is soluble in the nonaqueous solvent and that becomes insoluble or poorly soluble in the nonaqueous solvent after polymerization. A multi-phase liquid colored composition according to the present invention contains the colored liquid and a polar solvent immiscible with the colored liquid.

Abstract: The light stabilizer emulsion composition of the present invention includes: water; an emulsifier; and a light stabilizer and/or a UV absorber, in which components constituting the light stabilizer emulsion composition has an average particle size of 150 nm or less.

Abstract: A benzimidazolone compound represented by a general formula (1), (in the formula, each of R1, R2, R3 and R4 represents independently a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms).

Abstract: There are provided benzimidazolone compounds that provide a plurality of hues from a single structural formula, and are useful as pigments that offer superior dispersibility in binder resins, as well as benzimidazolone compounds that are useful as pigments, and show minimal flocculation when pigments of two or more different hues are blended together to produced a desired hue. A benzimidazolone compound represented by a general formula (1) shown below. (wherein, R1, R2, R3 and R4 each represent, independently, a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or an alkoxy group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R5 and R6 each represent, independently, an alkyl group of 1 to 5 carbon atoms).
