Abstract: A process for dyeing or printing with a fibre-reactive dyestuff a substrate consisting of or comprising cellulosic fibres, which process comprises treating the dyed or printed substrate, at a temperature from 20.degree. to 105.degree. C. with an aqueous solution of a polymer containing carboxylic acid groups at least partially neutralized in salt form.

Abstract: Continuous dyeing of textile webs of cellulose fibers and of mixtures thereof with synthetic fibers using reactive dyes, by applying onto the textile material an aqueous solution of at least one reactive dye in conjunction with a mixture of fixation agents of a liquid alkali water glass having a density from 37.degree. to 60.degree. Be and an alkali hydroxide solution having a density from 30.degree. to 45.degree. Be, introducing the treated material into a tank where it is heated and subjected to the action of humid heat of 81.degree. to 95.degree. C. for 5 to 180 seconds, removing it continuously from the tank and then terminating the dyestuff fixation by brief steaming or by a brief immersion into a hot sodium silicate solution.

Abstract: The unions consist of a mixture of fibers which can be colored with disperse dyestuffs and fibers which can be colored with reactive dyestuffs. A printing paste containing:(a) at least one finely dispersed, water-insoluble azo dye-stuff of the formula: ##STR1## (b) at least one reactive dyestuff and (c) at least one non-ionic surfactant is used. The azo dyestuff of formula I is not prepared in the printing paste. It has a melting point between 220.degree. and 300.degree. C. In the formula, A, D and R have the meanings given in claim 1.In this way, prints are obtained, from which the non-fixed dyestuffs can easily be washed out and which have an excellent white ground. The build-up and fastness properties are good. The prints are very brilliant and deep in color, in particular in the field of orange and red shades.

Abstract: Azo developing dyestuffs are produced by diazotizing on the fiber a mono- to tetramine derived from a metal-containing or metal-free phthalocyanine, the amino group(s) being bound to a phenyl or naphthyl group (which may be substituted) which is linked via a bridge member to the phthalocyanine which may further contain up to 3 optionally substituted sulfon amide groups and up to 3 sulfo groups, and coupling said diazotized amino onto azoic coupling components usual for preparing developing dyestuffs.
