Definitions
- the present invention relates to polymer-bonded polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and in particular, polymer-bonded perylene, terrylene and quaterrylene compounds having a nitrogen- containing heterocycloaliphatic substituent and to compositions such as, e.g., printing inks which comprise these polymer-bonded polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons as colorants.
- marking In an attempt to prevent counterfeiting marking is currently used extensively for the recognition, identification and authentication of individual items.
- the marking may be applied, for example, in the form of indicia such as 1 -dimensional barcodes, stacked 1 -dimensional barcodes, 2-dimensional barcodes, 3-dimensional barcodes, a data matrix, and the like.
- the application of markings is frequently carried out by a printing process which uses a printing ink with specific optical properties that are imparted to the ink by one or more substances contained therein such as, e.g., luminescent dyes, pigments, or cholesteric liquid crystal compounds.
- a class of compounds which is suitable for use in, e.g., printing inks for marking purposes are compounds having a perylene, terrylene or quaterrylene skeleton.
- Perylene, terrylene and quaterrylene display fluorescence and there are many derivatives of these compounds which are known and may theoretically be employed as pigments in compositions for marking such as printing inks and the like.
- a drawback of these compounds is their often unsatisfactorily low solubility or dispersibility in liquid media such as those which are useful in printing inks. This low solubility/dispersibility limits the suitability of these compounds as colorants for liquid compositions in general. It would thus, be advantageous to be able to increase the solubility and/or dispersibility of perylene, terrylene and quaterrylene dyes in liquid media and in particular, liquid media for use in printing inks.
