Abstract: There is disclosed a process for printing cellulosic textile material with reactive dyes which contain at least one monohalotriazine radical, which process comprises printing said material, without the addition of urea, in a single step and wetting the dried printed goods with water for the fixation step.The novel process gives level and deep prints of excellent appearance without the use of urea.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for fixing azo, metal complex azo and formazan dyes on textile fabrics with hot steam to give stable shades, which process comprises fixing textile fabrics dyed or printed with said dyes in hot steam that contains at least 0.5% by volume of air.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for printing cellulosic fibres or cellulose-containing blend fibres with reactive dyes or dye mixtures which contain a reactive dye and subsequent fixation, which comprises printing these materials with a print paste containing at least one water-soluble reactive dye of the formulaD--(X).sub.m (1)in which D is the radical of an organic dye of the monoazo, polyazo, metal complex azo, anthraquinone, phthalocyanine, formazan, azomethine, nitroaryl, dioxazine, phenazine or stilbene series, X is a fibre-reactive radical of the aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic series which is bonded to the radical D either directly or via a bridge member and m is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, and salts of aliphatic carboxylic acids having 3 to 18 carbon atoms, and subsequently fixing the print; and to the print pastes used and to their use for printing textile materials.

Abstract: The invention relates to long-shelflife print pastes containing at least one water-soluble reactive dye of the formulaD--(X).sub.m (1)in which D is the radical of an organic dye of the monoazo, polyazo, metal complex azo, anthraquinone, phthalocyanine, formazan, azomethine, nitroaryl, dioxazine, phenazine or stilbene series, X is a fibre-reactive radical of the aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic series which is bonded to the radical D either directly or via a bridge member, and m is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6, and, per fibre-reactive radical X, at least twice the stoichiometric amount of an alkali metal acetate, and to their use for printing cellulosic fibres.

Abstract: Dyes difficultly soluble or insoluble in water are used together with specific auxiliaries to dye or print textile material made from cellulose fibres, or mixtures thereof with synthetic fibres. These auxiliaries effect an increased dye yield, particularly on the cellulose material, and level tone-in-tone dyeings on mixed fabrics.

Abstract: Process for the pad-dyeing and printing of textile material made from mixed fibres of cellulose and polyester, which process comprises impregnating of printing the textile material with a dispersion of a disperse dye containing at least one hetero atom which can be alkylated; treating the textile material, before, during or after the impregnating or printing operation, with a compound containing at least two epoxy groups or groups convertible into epoxy groups; and subjecting the material impregnated or printed with dye and epoxy compound to a heat treatment.

Abstract: Described is a process for the tone-in-tone printing and pad-dyeing of textile material made from fibre mixtures of synthetic and natural material with at least one disperse dye with the use of solvents having swelling properties, which process comprises printing or impregnating the textile material with a printing paste or padding liquor in which one or more disperse dyes have been produced by reaction of coupling components with diazo components; subsequently subjecting the printing or the dyeing, after intermediate drying, to a heat treatment and finally to the finishing process.There are obtained in the case of many disperse dyes when they are produced in the printing paste or padding liquor by the process of the invention better fixings on the natural constituent of the mixed fibres than when the same dyes are firstly produced and then added in the finely-dispersed form to the printing paste or padding liquor.

Abstract: Described are aqueous, stable, highly concentrated, finely dispersed, flowable preparations of dyestuffs and optical brighteners insoluble to difficultly soluble in water, which preparations have a low content of dispersing agent and a particle size smaller than 10 .mu., particularly smaller than 2 .mu.

Abstract: New aqueous, stable, highly concentrated, finely dispersed, flowable dyestuff preparations having a low content of dispersing agents and a high content of dyestuff insoluble to difficultly soluble in water are described, which dyestuffs have a particle size smaller than 10 .mu., particularly smaller than 2 .mu., the said preparations being characterised in that they contain at least 10 percent by weight of water, at least 30 percent by weight of a finely dispersed dyestuff, especially a disperse or vat dyestuff, and a mixture consisting of at most 10 percent by weight of an anionactive dispersing agent, at most 5 percent by weight of a nonionic dispersing agent and at most 35 percent by weight of a hydrotropic agent as well as, optionally, further additives.

Abstract: Continuous process for the optical brightening and printing of organic fiber material, wherein the material is dry cleaned and at least one optical brightener applied from an organic liquor, the said material being then intermediately dried, printed, and subsequently finished by a heat treatment.

Abstract: Described is a process for the semi-continuous or continuous dyeing and printing or optical brightening of cellulose materials by impregnation of the material with an aqueous liquor or printing paste containing at least one fibre-reactive dyestuff or fibre-reactive optical brightener, wherein subsequent to impregnation, fixing of the dyestuff or optical brightener is performed in a salt-free single-phase bath containing at least one alcohol and alkali and optionally water.By this process there are obtained dyed or optically brightened cellulose materials having fastness properties equivalent to those obtained in the conventional manner. An advantage of the present process, in contrast to the usual processes, is that the waste water is not polluted by large amounts of salt.
