Abstract: Disclosed is a method for dyeing sueded wool- or fur-bearing skins tone-in-tone in a single bath and in one step. The dyeing is carried out with reactive dyestuffs bearing at least one reactive group selected from acryloylimino, halogenoacryloylimino and .beta.-halogenopropionylimino, in the presence of non-ionic or anionically modified polyalkoxylated surfactants.

Abstract: The invention describes a process for dyeing or printing natural or synthetic polyamide fibre material by a rapid fixation method, which comprises the use of dyes or mixtures of dyes of the formulae as defined in the description in a continuous dyeing method or printing method, and fixing the dyes or prints by steaming for less than 3 minutes such that at least 95% fixation of the dyes is achieved. The process is particularly suitable for combination dyeing and polyamide carpet printing, and produces level dyeings and prints having excellent fastness properties.

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.

Abstract: A process for dyeing a voluminous flat form polyamide substrate with anionic dyestuffs according to the cold pad-batch method, which process comprises the step of selecting the initial pH of the dyeing liquor within a range depending on the affinity of the substrate for anionic dyestuffs and the molecular weight of the anionic dyestuffs so as to give a substantial linear exhaustion of the dyeing liquor, the dyeing liquor being free from a thickening, swelling or foaming agent.

Abstract: Disclosed are the 1:2 chromium complex of the formula ##STR1## and the alkali metal salts thereof which are useful for the coloration of oxide layers produced on aluminum and alloys thereof and for dyeing natural and synthetic polyamides.
