2. Crystal structures of quinacridones
3. The bleaching of red coatings, which is frequently observed on aged cars, is not caused by a bleaching of the pigment, but by a decomposition of the coating (so-called chalking), resulting in a white, opaque layer which hides the red colour of the pigments
4. Quinacridone is internationally registered in the Colour Index as C.I. Pigment Violet 19. Trade names are e.g. ®Hostaperm Red Violet ER02 for the β-phase and ®Hostaperm Red E5B02 for the γ-phase (manufacturer: Clariant)
