An Fe.sub.3 O.sub.4 iron oxide black pigment having incorporated therein up to about 50 mole percent of .gamma.-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 plus Me Fe.sub.2 O.sub.4 (wherein Me is at least one of magnesium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, aluminum, chromium, titanium, copper, zinc and cadmium) having a specific surface according to BET of greater than about 12 m.sup.2 /g, up to about 10% by weight of a substantially insoluble inorganic compound as coating and a stability to oxidation with air under standardized conditions of greater than about 130.degree. C. Advantageously the coating comprises at least one of zinc hydroxide, zinc phosphate, zinc phosphite, aluminum phosphate and silica, being precipitated onto the suspended pigment from a solution. The resulting pigments are of improved resistance to oxidation, rendering them especially useful for pigmenting inorganic and organic dispersions and for use on magnetogram supports.
An Fe.sub.3 O.sub.4 iron oxide black pigment having incorporated therein up to about 50 mole percent of .gamma.-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 plus MeFe.sub.2 O.sub.4 (wherein Me is at least one of magnesium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, aluminum, chromium, titanium, copper, zinc and cadmium) having a specific surface according to BET of greater than about 12 m.sup.2 /g, up to about 10% by weight of a substantially insoluble inorganic compound as coating and a stability to oxidation with air under standardized conditions of greater than about 130.degree. C.
A process for the aftertreatment of an Fe.sub.3 O.sub.4 iron oxide black pigment having incorporated therein up to about 50 mole percent of .gamma.-Fe.sub.2 O.sub.3 plus Me Fe.sub.2 O.sub.4 (wherein Me is at least one of magnesium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, aluminum, chromium, titanium, copper, zinc and cadmium) which comprises forming an aqueous suspension of the pigment, dissolving an inorganic compound in the suspension, adding to the suspension a material which reacts with the inorganic compound to form an insoluble inorganic compound which precipitates onto said pigment as a coating in a quantity of from about 0.1 to 10% by weight and removing the pigment provided with the precipitated coating from the aqueous phase.
