Work on the G-589--D line was resumed, in the semi-works in an attempt to obtain an increase in strength. Competitive greens of this type are somewhat superior in this respect although the exact difference depends on the degree of extension. The variations made were some of the modifications tried during the last Semi-works
study.
In addition to the increase in strength, some attention is being given to flooding on the greens and to an apparent changeability in masstone which has appeared particularly in recent plant production*
SUMMARY UTO CONCLUSIONS
Ho satisfactory modification for obtaining greater strength has been found yet and the study is being continued along new
lines.
Omitting copper hydroxide added nothing to strength in two batches in which it was tried although on previous occasions the
change appeared to be helpful.
An increase in amount of bichromate used increased yellowness of tint rather than strength. A more olive and a slightly
changeable masstone resulted.
Replacement of the alum with hydrochloric acid
sufficient to give the same pH reading on the treated yellow resulted in somewhat greater strength but also gave a more olive changeable masstone and poorer light stability. It was observed that the treatment with acid redissolves some lead (lead carbonate) and it is suspected that some gain in strength may be made, by elimination of the
lead carbonate*
A formula based on this idea is being tried.
A 50$ reduction in amount of alum and copper hydroxide used in yellow treatment of the regular formula plus a 10$ reduction in tin crystals and sodium sulphide had no beneficial effect on strength.
On one batch, the blue was added to the lead base and the yellow struck on this mixture. The product obtained was more olive than control but still as bright as standard. Flooding as judged by
rubout may be slightly less*
Changeability appeared on the Semi-works batches in which a high bichromate ratio was used but not on control runs, except
in one abnormal batch which was pressed out as yellow. Some improvement

Tli study of B-140-B was continued from the past month, A comparative study of the two day and one day processes for B-14CKP has been mad and an improved one day process has been developed*
;y-;.*-
ssamou*.pmmmsm
In the preparation of B-146-B it is customary to flood and
draw one water after formation of the whit precipitate. Oxidation
' ,v
without drawing one water results in a product with a wen* green tint,. '
A number of strikes have been made to obtain a process (giving a ah- ,:<t
perior product) in which the washing of the white precipitate could : h'ty1*
be eliminated without affecting the strength and tint,
,:
It was found possible to obtain the desired redness of tint
by decreasing the amount of acid used. Increased strength was b-
tained by forming the white precipitate in dilute solution. These ' :|f
changes alone give a pigment which filters very slowly but by iaor*-! t:*:
ing the copperas a satisfactory filtering rate is obtained. The pro
duct obtained by this one day process is equal tinctorially to that
obtained by vat-washing the white precipitate with one water. How
ever, it was observed that the mounts appear to become green and weak
somewhat more rapidly on standing than in the case of the two day
process.
'-.ft
While a one day process has been developed which gives satis
factory material by rubout, it is still necessary to prove that this
material Is satisfactory in
and lacquer. In the case of
lacquer, previous work indici&feed moisture was the important,factor
and no further experiments seem necessary. 2s^ri^ieaital work an the
effect of moisture in `Balux*' grinds and in feints indicates that
moisture causes the pigment to become green and' 'dirty,;. Since
green and red shades can be afcgad to tffertftiat
mieriuQU it
would appear that the chief effect of moisture ia to.give a -dirty,-,ap
pearance. The experience of the control ittor&tofy is. that red Mass-
tone products are green in "Bulux**. 'If, howler, .the..Maetones m
identical the controlling faetor may be th^-M&. It is i^0gta&ed"
prepare red and green tint material of equal aasaton and make ^Bulux*

Two batches ware made in the Semi-Works, the first a weak shad ing batch for mixing with Lot 4248 (250# Paper Lab. shipment) to set up a satisfactory standard, and the second batch checking th4 use ot our manufacture of sodium resinat solution to replace the rosin sist in the above batch. The shading batch was thus available for use as a control. The use of sodium resinate solution has given fairly satisfactory results in the laboratory,
ssmmjLjmmvw
The first batch ms made n the standard @L-407-2 formulation
except that a ratio of 33-l/3$ Pigment Green B toner to 66-2/3$ Rosin
sis was used instead of the standard 50-50 ratio. The resultant lake,
was of course considerably weakeafthan the OL-407-B standard* This lake
is to be used in shading Lot 4248 (250# shipment Paper Lab. shipment)
so that 50# of the dry lake is equivalent to 100# Pigment Green B
standard, 27$ pulp (lot 41873) on paper test. As Ibi
tested on
a 45-100 ratio and this weaker batch (SW-7378) tested on a #2-100
ratio, the amount of weak material to be used is easily qi^lculated
(100# Lot 4248 - 41-2/3# SW-7378 baaed on these tests), Sbwever,
samples of the separate components of this prospective aifi; hpw been
sent to the Paper laboratory for their -evaluation and recbmaendations
before the mix is attempted.
The second batch was made to check the first except tiipt a. solu
tion of sodium resinate from I Wood Rosin was used to rb
rosin size in the formulation. The reason for o'.
batch
in this experimental batch was to have a cheek

the case of. the control batch. The difference in.toner ai
is on
these tm) batches (control batch 4#`.3$ inner,' sodium resin

^absorption of water, etc.) as the
is on the resinate batch
(32$ toner) checked the theoretical f
Labed analysis (33-1/3$ toner)
fairly closely, while the analysis &n Wm control batch (40.5$ toner)
was considerably higher. As previous batches made with fresh resin
size showed a 53$ toner content when based on a 50$ theoretical formu
lation, the obvious possibility I that the rosin size has absorbed
water and thus lowered Its purity.
The yield on the hatch using sodium resinate was a considerable improvement over the control batch, a lump yield of 44 lbs. being se cured. The estimated yield was 42 lbs. and the control batch, lump yield -sms 36 pounds. The reasons for the low yield in the case of the
DUP050316384

control are the possibly low ary content of the resin size aad' loss in the Charlotte mill (no water is used t wash). The refs hatch slurry being considerably thinner than the control be the water used in making the sodium resisaie, the 103s in the negligible. This extra water in the ease of tki resinate batchprobable reason for the slightly poorer dispersion as compared the control batch.
Drying time in each case was' considerably longer than utf these batches. 185. houra in the l*r-eas dryer at 140F was refu; dry the control batch, and 259 hours in tie same dryer to dry nate batch. The tendency of the material to glaze and. dry hard surface is the reason for this Ion tigs drying. A drum dryer |s probably the most efficient means of drying this material on a i$%pv

The two hatches reported this month were made to 41873 formulation (soda ash in the cateium soap). An at increase the dry content by reducing the number f cakes from 40 to 38 was only partially successful. The
dry content was probably about 1/2% (24-1/2% to 25%)
in the number of cakes should have given an improvement ; considerable difficulty was encountered in forcing
into 38 cakes and in one case a wash plate was cracked* improvement shown does not seem to warrant continuation of pressing in view of the difficulties involved. Ave these two batches was satisfactory, averaging 93-1/2% o which is an improvement over last month's production bu 2-1/3% under the average secured in previous months.

iron blue pigment particles probably at the oil-water interfaces* lharthermore, that it is not possible to cause the iron blue to transfer into the oil phase without the addition of a special assisting agent* ThSs successful flushing operation is not dependent upon the hydrogen ion concentration of the mixture nor is it dependent upon the Inversion of the emulsion from the oil-In-wetter type to the water-in-oil type# since lead sulphate causes such an inversion without the separation
of water*
Supposed "flushing" of Iron blue by means of 7*8# of oil-soluble Be.^Qle.,au,lBtea.teift-------------------------------------------------;------------,---------------------
This reagent (DX-896)(D-1741) ha been reported (Experimental Station Report ESR-93-8G by G*F* Hoffman, Sept. 26, 192?) to cause the flushing of B-66-B "but only with the aid of careful manip ulation." Efforts to duplicate this result in this laboratory have failed as an oil-in-water emulsion is formed by ordinary mixing or by running over the ink mill# After evaporation of most of the water a the ink mill, the emulsion inverts to a urate r-ia-oil crepe-like emulsion* At no time is there an actual separation of water. Hoffman's iron blue "flushed inks" contained 5-8$ water and were BO# weak compared t a ground blue which he attributes "to the much greater water content of
the transferred pigment," The most notable improvement of the transferred blue, according to Hoffman, was the elimination of bronziaess* This property is known to depend to a certain extent on the amount of Water present in the ink*
Proposed theory of mechanic _for ,flushiag_of^ir on_blues*,, ,
A study of the mechanism of flushing has resulted in
several tentative conclusions, Where incorporation of a plpaeat-water
mixture with oil results in a pigment-oil system and the separation of
water, it appears that stable or equilibrium conditions are reached
whan the pigment has collected in the oil. With other pigments,
equilibrium condi tioas are reached when the pigment is at the water-
oil interfaces* Lithol Bed appears to be an example of the first
type and Iron Blue an example of the second type* A third type would
be a pigment which at equilibrium would be present in the water phase*
There is no evidence that mechanical work 0$, a mechanical force of essay
type will displace this equilibrium* Attempts to flush iron blues
alone on a glass board, in the colloid mill, on an Ink mill, or in a
mixer have all given negative results* To displace an equilibrium it
is necessary to alter some part of the pigment-oil-water sywtea* Since
we may not wish to alter the ptg&eat, it is necessary to alter either
the water if the pigment collects in the water, or the interface if
She pigaant collects in the oil-water interface. In the case of iron
blue in a pigment-water-oil system it is therefore necessary to add
a substance which collects at the water-oil interface* Simple
collection at am Interface indicates that the interface is altered*
\
If the interface is altered sufficiently the blue may no longer collect v
in the interface but may now, with certain vehicles, collect in me

at the interface, of the iron blue from interface to oil are rine

the Berlin Laboratory reports that Maroons which were submitted to them last month for direct transfer method of making Nitrocellulose lac definite evidence of more rapid transfer* However,, mildly interested in this particular improvement now able to obtain ready transfer with the ordinary pulp*,
Marly in the month it was shows that alkaline coupling',HT304D, while apparently fairly; series, showed considerable variations from time to prone to give colors not up to standard as has been time* On the other hand, the aeid coupling gave sU tinetorially and seemed to give more nearly duplica sample of the pellets from such a color with 75 % Iffa salt was flushed by a customer who, while maintai: interested in a practical way, still insisted that which should be interesting to many, especially in ease of flushing*

Attempts to add the varnish during ov after development with regular agitation gave poor incorporation of-pie varnish and very slow flushing* However, it was discovered that boiling fee eolor, while not materially aiding the incorporation of the varnish, did not seriously change the color tinetorially.
The incorporation of the varnish i this manner was pcved in another experiment by adding part of fee varnish to the $

A very interesting experiment1 completed the work by studying the -effect of mineral spirits on the ease of a eolor from fee pulp in a change-can misfefe* It was shown that spirits (76$) in the pulp results in a very material reduction

Hnfertunately the control to the 48 seriee was out of line as to pellet formation and showed poor settling, Wi^ this exception there is some evidence in favor, of low alkalinity as pro moting pallet formation.
Tinctorially, inareasing alkalinity gives yellow tints with some slight depth in messtone in the dry colors and very similar results with those flushed colors in which the varnish was added to the. >,. , finished slurry. With the varnish in the Ha salt, the flutes is quite qpNfei erratic.

A method of campling was developed whereby the WS was kept in alkaline solution prior to coupling* thus producing smoother and more rapid coupling with attendant diminished df'heo decomposition* (Coupling concluded acid to Congo Bed but net to Clayton Yellow^} * It was hoped that thus the brightness of ed coupling might be obtained. The product is a distinct imprqilpfrfc
wen RT-22-B in brightness and strength. Coupling is
half an hour*
This method was then extended to include,
by incorporation of Mono Acid F and Para F* The producer
are lighter in masstoae than those obtained from alkaline ____irT;jr
Since this method of coupling is rapid, produces particles wbfbh filter more rapidly than those obtained from alkaline media, and' produces bright pigments of good strength in good yields, further? investigation is indicated* arknes s may result from alkaline wash*
In all cases hiting was emitted, method 3?644 was
used for dlazotisation and coupling was carried on under the surfaba* The effect of this last factor appears to be negligible, but eanmot
be determined until a stable procedure is decided upon*
At the present time it is act feasible to dei#K. between the new method of coupling and the method fJS#rSc formerly used in the production of dark Para Rifs* This method produces Reds of the RT-22* type slightly inferior to the new method, but
superior dark Para Beds, but these filter much more slaw#- fRan those obtained, by the new method* It is hoped that all the advantageous features may ultimately be incorporated in one proebd.tir%"
The influence of Para Soap is quite significant. In general, its presence in reds of the BT*2- type inr#asea the strength but causes the masstoae to become brown* la these bmdfb its presence is contra-indicated* In the BY*?Q*D types. In alkaline, or acetic
acid coupling media its incorporation is essential* It increhsea
strength, but unlike its action in BT-2g*> types, it lightens masstones* It appears to produce softer texture and to out down the rate of
filtration* This phase of the problem is to be considered further*

As concerns yields, it may b ta treatment which tends to remove Para F {from the R' such as alkali, or hot water washes will cut down other things being equal, the use of Itera Soap tend and it is believed that this increase is not solely

Some work was done during fell is month prepare a match for Ansbacher-Siegle* s range Lake (G was reported to the laboratory in Service to Beaeareh S74*
The sample of range Lake, G-38G38*
Ansbachar-Slegle, was examined and found to contain barlfm,
chromium and its organic coloring matter was identified as
(sulfenille aeid - BH)* The analysis, therefore, indiea
cmoicdruoostcwoapsic
a barium salt examination
of Orange if mixed with showed probable presence
some e; of chrome
not orange) Accordingly a lake was prepared by preeipita'
of Orange II with barium chloride on blase fixe* This lak$>
dry mixed with additional blase fixe and YSPS*D was a very
for
tine torially and in light fastness*
Bpoa request from the Service Depart large sample, an unsuccessful attempt was made to repeat experiment starting with a different shipment of Orange II investigation of various shipments of dye showed a wide variatiim masston depth and brightness, and in tint. The matter ha a been e to the attention of the DuPont Dyestuffs Department*
A straight barium toner was prepared with
good texture and lightfasteess, and with satisfactory yield,
tal3
the dry toner was only about 8$ weaker when compered with the
toner pulp. In printing ink tests it showed superior qualities to
Permtone Orange YT-841-p, being aonbleettng and better in light fastness*
The barium toner was also better in light faatlaws than YLIfG**B*
it
Lakes of the barium salt were made <m alumina hydrate,
magnesium earbonate, blano fixe and a phosphate! alismlUd hydrate* The
precipitation was incomplete in the ease of the ph0s|ftdte<ydrate base*
The lake on alumina hydrate was darker in masstoam, !p.uir in tint and worse in light fastness than the blane fixe and the magisala lakes*
The barium toner of Orange II qppears quite promts as a cheap, non-bleeding, moderately light fast orange and deserves fur^ study*

TSwee batches, which originally were red and dirty is tint-' almost every ease, were re-sampled and rubbed vs. the BL-151-33 by the Bevelepment Section. In every case the tint had notice improved being greener and cleaner than the original (by eCasparisi with previous rubout results vs. the standard) and in most cases o-hly v.s. red vs. the standard.
A possible reason for this improvement in tint is that most Of
these batches were over-dried, which results in red and dirty mater
ial. On standing for.a long period of time, however, the possibility is that water has been absorbed, changing the type of hydrate in the lake and giving the improved tint. Experimenta run a year or so ago in an effort to accelerate this change by exposing the lake to a veryhumid atmosphere and by slurrying with water and re-drying were un successful .
Tabulations of the hanged results on these batches are in fable I and the mixes are tabulated in Table II.
