Patent ID: 7419751

Claim:
A crystalline pigment, comprising: titanylphthalocyanine; a binder resin; and dicholoromethane; wherein said crystalline pigment has a CuKα 1.542 Å X-ray diffraction spectrum comprising plural diffraction peaks and a primary particle diameter not greater than 0.2 μm, wherein a maximum diffraction peak is observed at a Bragg (2θ) angle of 27.2°; main peaks are observed at 94°, 9.6° and 24.0°; and a minimum diffraction peak is observed at 73°; and no diffraction peak is observed at an angle greater than 73° and less than 94°, wherein said angles may vary by ±0.2° and the minimum interval where no peak is observed between required peaks at 7.3 and 9.4 is 2.0 degrees absolute or more, and wherein no diffraction peak is observed at 26.3°.
