Patent ID: 7018458

Claim:
An aqueous pigment formulation which comprises about 5 to about 80 parts by weight of a pigment, 0 to about 20 parts by weight of a dispersing resin, about 0.1 to about 5 parts by weight of at least one auxiliary and/or additive, 0 to 20 parts by weight solvent about 3 to about 50 parts by weight of at least one organofunctional modified polysiloxane of the general formula in which R is in each case identical or different and is R 1 or —CH 3 , R 1 is —(CH 2 ) e —O —(CH 2 —CH(Ph)—O) e —(C n H 2n-x R 2 x —O) d —R 3 wherein e is ≧1, or R 1 is at least one —(CH 2 ) c —O—(CH 2 —CH(Ph)—O) e —(C n H 2n-x R 2 x —O) d —R 3 and is at least one —CH 2 —CHR*—Ph wherein e is 0 or >1, with the proviso that if e is 0 the value of b is an integer >1; R* is H or —CH 3 , R 2 is an alkyl residue having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, Ph is a phenyl derivative having the general formula —(C 6 H 5-y R 4 y )— in which R 4 is a hydroxyl residue, an alkyl residue or an alkoxy residue, and y is from 0 to 5, R 3 is hydrogen, an alkyl chain, a benzyl residue, an alkyl-substituted benzyl residue, a group COR 5 with a residue R 5 which has an alkyl chain, a group CONHR 6 with a residue R 6 which comprises a hydrogen atom or an alkyl chain, or CO 2 R 7 , wherein R 7 is alkyl chain, c is from 2 to 6, d is from 3 to 70, n is from 2 to 4, x is 0 or 1, a is from 0 to 100, b is from 1 to 100, with the proviso that a+b=1 to 100; and the remainder water.
