The issue of the present invention is to provide a disazo pigment in which the polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) content in addition to the primary aromatic amine (PAA) content is reduced. The present invention provides a pigment composition containing a disazo pigment, an alkylamine that has an alkyl group having a carbon number of 8 or more, and a poly(oxyethylene) alkyl ester that has an alkyl group having a carbon number of 8 or more. Preferably, the disazo pigment includes at least one disazo pigment selected from a group consisting of C.I. Pigment Yellow 83, C.I. Pigment Yellow 13, and C.I. Pigment Yellow 14.

An object is to provide phthalocyanine pigment compositions that have good transparency, gloss, and suitability in the initial viscosity after production as well as outstanding storage stability when used in liquid ink. A copper phthalocyanine pigment composition containing copper phthalocyanine, a rosin compound, copper phthalocyanine sulfonic acid or its salt, and an aliphatic amine with the calcium content of the pigment composition being 200 ppm or less has good transparency, gloss, and suitability in the initial viscosity after production as well as outstanding storage stability when used in liquid ink.

The present invention provides a method for producing dry organic pigment, comprising the successive steps of, in this order: a first step wherein a wet organic pigment is obtained by drying an organic pigment presscake at 70 to 150&#xb0; C. to a moisture content of 5 to 30%, and a second step wherein a dry organic pigment is obtained by pulverizing and drying the wet organic pigment at a temperature that is higher than the temperature employed in the first step but lower than the decomposition temperature of the organic pigment. The method for producing dry organic pigment enables the dry organic pigment to be obtained with superior productivity while consuming less energy than conventional methods.
