Abstract: An azo dye for use in color filters soluble in alkaline aqueous solutions and organic solvents and having in one molecule at least one sulfonamido group of which one hydrogen atom is substituted; and a method for producing a color filter having a plurality of color filter elements which comprises the steps of a) coating a substrate with an organic solvent solution of a photoresist composition containing said azo dye and drying the coat to form an adhering layer, b) exposing a specific part of said layer to radiation ray, c) developing the exposed or unexposed region with alkali to form a colored pattern, and d) repeating the steps a)-c) on every dye of different color present in said composition.

Abstract: Water-soluble metallized disazo compounds which, in the free acid form, are represented by the following formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 stand independently for chlorine or nitro, and X stands for phenyl which may be substituted with chlorine, methyl, lower alkoxy, hydroxyl or carboxyl, for use in dyeing.

Abstract: They are useful for dyeing and printing materials containing hydroxyl groups or amide groups.

Abstract: Azo dyestuffs of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 denotes acyl,R.sub.2 denotes hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine or trifluoromethyl,R.sub.3 denotes hydrogen, optionally substituted C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, cyclohexyl or optionally substituted phenyl andR.sub.4 denotes hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl groupare suitable for dyeing natural and synthetic fibre materials, for example for dyeing wool or polyamide fibres, in level read to violet shades with very good fastnesses to light, wet processing and perspiration, the color yield being good.

Abstract: The specification describes a new group of alkanol substituted disazo compounds that are useful in dyeing polyamide textile fibers in orange hues. The new compounds are compatible with several acid blue dyes and several acid red dyes that are commercially important as dyes for nylon. The new compounds are particularly well suited for use as the "yellow" component in trichromatic systems for dying polyamide carpeting and other textiles. The new compounds are relatively inexpensive to make and have outstanding application and fastness properties. Other aspects of the specification are concerned with a method of making the new compounds and with a method of dyeing polyamides with said compounds and to the novel dyed polyamides resulting from the use of the new group of compounds as dyes.

Abstract: Water-soluble monoazo and disazo compounds which have fiber-reactive dyestuff properties and containing as diazo component an optionally substituted phenyl radical or naphthyl radical or an optionally substituted phenylazophenyl, phenylazonaphthyl, naphthylazophenyl or naphthylazonaphthyl radical, and as coupling component that of a naphthol, aminonaphthaline or aminobenzene and as fiber-reactive group a group of the formula ##STR1## in which both R.sup.1 s, identical to or different from one another, denote a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted alkyl group of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R is a hydrogen atom or a sulfo group and Y represents a vinyl group or a .beta.-thiosulfatoethyl, .beta.-phosphatoethyl, .beta.-chloroethyl or .beta.-sulfatoethyl group, this fiber-reactive grouping being bonded to the radical of the coupling component.

Abstract: A disazo reaction dyestuff for cellulose fibers which is of the formula: ##STR1## wherein D is a residue of a monoazo dye, R.sup.1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, and X is a group: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each hydrogen, methyl, methoxy or --SO.sub.3 M, Y is an aromatic or aliphatic divalent residue and M is hydrogen or an alkali metal.

Abstract: A composition and a process for the production of stable, water dispersions of anionic dyestuffs, for example acid or direct dyestuffs, useful for the dyeing of organic fibers including paper. Highly concentrated, liquid dispersions of at least 15-40% by weight of dry anionic dyestuff are achieved by the use of nonionic dispersing agents and mixing or grinding in a mill until most of the undissolved dyestuff particles are smaller than 10.mu..

Abstract: A dispersing agent comprising the salt of a tertiary amine containing at least one poly(lower alkyleneoxy) chain and an aromatic acid having at least two benzene rings and a dispersion of an organic pigment, an organic dyestuff or carbon black in a polar organic solvent containing said dispersing agent is disclosed.
