The novel pigment compositions are made by coupling orthanilic acid derivatives (including optionally, disulfonated amine derivatives) with B-napthal precipitating the metal salts and mixing with fortified latex dispersions. The fortified latex dispersion comprises a dispersed polymer phase in a dissolved polymer phase. The dispersed polymer is preferably a high molecular weight copolymer while the soluble polymer is preferably a low molecular weight acrylic copolymer containing carboxyl group functionality.

Abstract: The color of azo pigments derived from 2-hydroxynaphthalene-3-carboxylic acid or its salts are improved by the coupling reaction of a diazonium compound of an aromatic aminosulfonic acid with a coupling component which is a mixture of (1) 2-hydroxynaphthalene-3-carboxylic acid or its salt, (2) .beta.-naphthol or its salt, and (3) a phenolic by-product having a molecular weight of about 300 and containing about 1 equivalent of phenolic hydroxy groups. The phenolic by-product can be obtained by evaporating .beta.-naphthol from a tarry substance formed as a by-product during the reaction of an alkali .beta.-naphtholate with carbon dioxide, extracting the residue with an alkali and precipitating the soluble matter with an acid. The color or tone of the azo pigment is stabilized by the use of the coupling component.
