The present invention provides a composition containing component (A): a compound represented by the formula (1)

##STR00001##

wherein each symbol is as described in the DESCRIPTION, or a salt thereof, and component (B): at least one kind of inorganic powder. The composition can be produced conveniently, shows good dispersibility, and is superior in the sense of use such as moist feeling, feeling of close adhesion and affinity, and a coated film formed from the composition has good condition and is also superior in durability.

The invention relates to copper-containing metal pigments, wherein the copper-containing metal pigments have an elemental copper content of at least 50 wt.-%, relative to the total weight of the uncoated copper-containing metal pigment, wherein the copper-containing metal pigments have at least one enveloping metal oxide layer and at least one enveloping chemically non-reactive plastic layer, wherein the sum of the amounts of the at least one chemically non-reactive plastic layer and of the at least one metal oxide layer lies in a range of from 10 to 50 wt.-%, relative to the weight of the uncoated metal pigment, and the weight ratio of the at least one metal oxide layer to the at least one chemically non-reactive plastic layer lies in a range of from 1:2 to 1:20. The invention furthermore relates to a method for producing these pigments and the use thereof.
