Abstract: An object of the present invention is provide a disperse dye composition that has the light fastness required of synthetic fiber materials for automotive interiors that are exposed to sunlight at high temperature and high humidity, and that has good blue, red, and yellow dyeability. This object is achieved by a mixed disperse dye composition comprising a blue disperse dye composition having a specific composition ratio of five specific types of disperse dyes, and other specific yellow and/or red disperse dyes. The invention makes it possible to provide a disperse dye composition having not only high fastness of each color but light fastness with a favorable balance of the three primary colors, with the dye properties of each color equal during dyeing, and good dye color reproducibility, as well as by a dyeing method using this dye.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing dyed textile materials consisting of polyester and polyamide. The textile material is dyed by means of pigments or a disperse dye that stains polyester. Surplus dye is removed. The polyamide portion is dyed using vat dyes, leuco vat dyes, sulphide dyes or soluble sulphide dyes. Said dyes are vatted if this is required for obtaining a solubility and are oxidatively converted into the real dyes after attaching.

Abstract: A process for dyeing fibrous substrates which comprises the steps of: providing a fibrous substrate; providing at least one sulfur dye; providing at least one reduction stable direct dye; and applying said reduction stable direct dye and sulfur dye to said fibrous substrate in the presence of a suitable reducing agent. Further, it has been surprising to find that these reduction stable direct dyes can be processed without a sulfur dye present. This results in a process for dyeing fibrous substrates which comprises the steps of: providing a fibrous substrate; providing a reduction stable direct dye; and applying said reduction stable direct dye to said fibrous substrate in the presence of a suitable reducing agent.

Abstract: Coupling products of diazotized o- or p-toluidines to 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid p-anisidide do not produce optimum dyeing properties in HT exhaustion dyeing of wound packages of synthetic fiber materials. Filtration occurs time after time under critical conditions, since these single dyestuffs and also mixtures of these with one another build up too slowly in the heating-up phase.A bright red multi-component system of the same color shade, which exhibits a significantly improved exhaustion capacity by synergism during HT dyeing of wound packages and no longer presents difficulties in respect of filtration, can be obtained by mixing monoazo dyestuffs which are obtained by coupling diazotized aniline and p-toluidine in each case to 3-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid p-anisidide.
