- 2. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein compound (a) is 4-aminobenzamide.
- 3. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the amount of compound (a) is about 2 to 70 percent, based on the total weight of (a) and (b).
- 4. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the amount of compound (a) is about 5 to 15 percent, based on the total weight of (a) and (b).
- 5. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein said amine (b) is 3,3'-dichlorbenzidine.
- 6. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein said amine (b) is 4-nitro-1-amino-2-methoxybenzene.
- 7. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the coupling agent (c) is an acetoacetarylide; 1-tolyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone; 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone; substituted 1-tolyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone or 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone where the phenyl or tolyl group contains one or more alkyl, alkoxy, carboxy, carboxybenzylamide, halo, nitro, or sulfo group, and the pyrazolone group contains a carboxy or carbethoxy group; or a mixture thereof.
- 8. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the inorganic material (d) is titanium dioxide, titanium dioxide modified with antimony or nickel, titanium dioxide modified with aluminum silicate, zinc oxide, iron oxide, aluminum hydroxide, barium sulfate, clay, or a mixture thereof.
- 9. The printing ink of claim 1 where the pigment is conditioned by heating it at a temperature within the range of about 110.degree. to 250.degree. C.
- 10. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the amines are 4-aminobenzamide and 3,3'-dichlorbenzidine, the coupling agents are acetoacet-o-toluidide and 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone, and the inorganic material is a highly dispersible titanium dioxide.
- 11. The printing ink of claim 1 wherein the amines are 4-aminobenzamide and 4-nitro-1-amino-2-methoxybenzene, the coupling agent is acetoacet-o-anisidide, and the inorganic material is a highly dispersible titanium dioxide.
- 12. A pigment prepared by reacting in aqueous solution (a) a compound having the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4 may be the same or different and each may be H, CH.sub.3, or OCH.sub.3, (b) at least one other primary aryl amine, and (c) at least one coupling agent in the presence of (d) a dispersed inorganic material.
- 13. The pigment of claim 12 wherein compound (a) is 4-aminobenzamide.
- 14. The pigment of claim 12 wherein the amount of compound (a) is about 2 to 70 percent, based on the total weight of (a) and (b).
- 15. The pigment of claim 12 wherein the amount of compound (a) is about 5 to 15 percent, based on the total weight of (a) and (b).
- 16. The pigment of claim 12 wherein said amine (b) is 3,3'-dichlorbenzidine.
- 17. The pigment of claim 12 wherein said amine (b) is 4-nitro-1-amino-2-methoxybenzene.
