  • Publication number: 20220356171
    Abstract: An isoindoline derivative of formula wherein X is N, C—CN or C—COR2; Y is a radical having an acidic group or a basic group; R1 is independently from one another halogen or C1-C4-alkyl, said alkyl is unsubstituted or substituted with halogen; R2 is C1-C4-alkyl, said alkyl is unsubstituted or substituted with halogen; and n is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, with the proviso that Y does not include an acidic group if X is C—CN or C—COR2, and compositions containing the same are provided. The isoindoline derivative and the pigment composition are suitable, for example, for coloring high molecular mass organic material, especially paints, printing inks, resist formulations for color filter applications, electrophotographic toners, cosmetics, plastics, films or fibers.

  • Patent number: 9732201
    Abstract: A method for producing infra-red inert substrates, including molded polymeric articles, films, fibers and coatings and other organic and inorganic materials, by incorporating into the substrate or onto the surface of the substrate an effective amount of a dispersed bis-oxodihydroindolylen-benzodifuranone colorant. The thus obtained, also claimed substrates so produced are reflective and transparent to much of the near infra red radiation not reflected. There are multiple applications for cases of devices comprising electronic components, outdoor construction elements, outdoor furniture, automotive, marine or aerospace parts, laminates, artificial leather or textile materials, as well as in polychrome printing processes and optical fibers. The thus obtained substrates can also be subjected to laser welding. New bis-oxo-dihydroindolylen-benzodifuranone compounds are also claimed.
