  • Patent number: 4563192
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for dyeing synthetic polyamide fibre material with dyes or dye mixtures in the presence of a mixture of dyeing assistants, which comprises using for the dyeing of these materials an aqueous liquor which contains at least one anionic dye which, under the defined dyeing conditions, has a degree of exhaustion of at least 95% at 1/1 standard depth of shade, and a dyeing assistant mixture containing an anionic compound, a quaternary compound and a non-ionic compound, and wherein the liquor contains an alkali metal salt and an organic acid, and finishing the dyeing at pH 5-7, preferably pH 5.5-6, and at a temperature of 95.degree. to 130.degree. C.The process according to the invention is suitable for dyeing synthetic polyamide materials, producing level dyeings having good fastness properties with all types of dye or mixtures of dyes of identical or different types.

  • Patent number: 4537598
    Abstract: A process for dyeing or printing natural and synthetic polyamide material by the trichromatic technique, which comprises the use of a red dye of the formula (1) defined in the specification, or a mixture of the red dye of the formula (1) with a red dye of the formula (2) together with at least one yellow or orange dye of the formula (3), or a mixture of at least one yellow or orange dye of the formula (3) with a yellow dye of the formula (4) and at least one blue dye of the formula (5). The process of the invention is suitable for dyeing natural or synthetic polyamide material from an aqueous liquor or for printing with printing pastes. It is particularly suitable for dyeing from short liquors.

  • Patent number: 4444564
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the non-skittery and level dyeing of fibre material made of natural polyamides, with dyes or mixtures of dyes in the presence of a mixture of dyeing assistants, which comprises using for dyeing these materials an aqueous liquor which contains at least one anionic wool dye which, under the defined dyeing conditions at 1/1 standard depth, exhausts to at least 95%, and a dyeing assistant mixture containing an anionic compound of the formula ##STR1## in which R is an alkyl or alkenyl radical having 12 to 22 carbon atoms, M is hydrogen, an alkali metal or ammonium, and m and n are integers such that the sum of m and n is 2 to 14, a quaternary compound of the formula ##STR2## in which R', independently of R, is what R has been defined as, A is an anion, Q is a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl radical, and p and q are integers such that the sum of p and q is 20 to 50 , and a non-ionic compound of the formula ##STR3## in which R", independently of R, is what R has been defined

  • Patent number: 4402704
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the trichromatic dyeing or printing of natural and synthetic polyamide materials with dye mixtures, in which process there is used the dye of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is methyl or ethyl, and R.sub.2 is cyclohexyl or phenyl, together with at least one dye of the formula ##STR2## wherein B.sub.1, B.sub.2 and E.sub.1 are hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy, and X is straight-chain or branched-chain C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, or straight-chain or branched-chain C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -hydroxyalkyl, and a dye of the formula ##STR3## wherein one Y is hydrogen or methyl, and the other Y is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkanoylamino or C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -hydroxyalkylsulfamoyl, or with a mixture of the dyes of the formulae ##STR4## where Y.sub.1 in the formula (4) is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -hydroxyalkylsulfamoyl, and Z is hydrogen or methyl, and Y.sub.2 in the formula (5) is C.sub.2 -C.sub.4 -alkanoylamino, Z in the formula (4) being hydrogen when Y.sub.

  • Patent number: 4396393
    Abstract: The invention relates to a dye mixture which contains a dye of the formula ##STR1## wherein Z is hydrogen or methyl, and a dye of the formula ##STR2## Z in the formula (1) being hydrogen when the propionylamino group in the formula (2) is bound in the m-position with respect to the NH group. The dye mixture is suitable for dyeing or printing natural or synthetic polyamide materials, especially in combination with other dyes, and particularly from short liquors. The dye mixture is characterized by generally good properties, in particular by good strike properties and good solubility.
