Publication number: 20010054209Abstract: A method for dyeing cellulosic materials with reactive dye by pretreating the fabric with a polycationic polymeric agent which is desirably also polynucleophilic is disclosed. The agent can be a polyquaternary amine material especially a poly(DADMAC) or polyvinylpyridine, particularly one including nucleophilic sites such as primary amino groups, e.g. polyallylamine/DADMAC copolymers and polyvinylpyridines quaternisied with w-aminoalkyl groups. The dyes can react with the nucleophilic centres so dyebath exhaustion can be driven by dye fixation rather than substantivity to the substrate. The need to use of salts to drive substantivity can be obviated and post dyeing washing to remove unreacted/hydrolysed dye is much simplified. Material dyed by the method has the good wash fastness properties of materials dyed using reactive dyes. A wide variety of cellulosic substrates can be dyed including lyocell fibre materials and blend/union materials with polyamides.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 1999Publication date: December 27, 2001Inventors: GEOFFREY WILLIAM COLLINS, STEPHEN MARTIN BURKINSHAW, ROY GORDON

Patent number: 6200354Abstract: A method of dyeing cellulosic fibers or fabrics using pre-metallized acid dye by pretreating the fabric with a cationic agent having a plurality of cationic centers and optionally after treating the dyed material with a cationic polymer is disclosed. The cationic polymer is desirably a polyquaternary amine material especially a poly(DADMAC) or polyvinylpyridine. Material dyed by the method has a “washed out” appearance similar to fabrics dyed using the “Jarofast” process, but the availability of a wide range of pre-metallized dyes gives a wider color range, and the method enables a wider range of substrates to be dyed successfully, including lyocell fiber materials e.g. those sold under Courtauld's trademark “Tencel” and blend/union materials with polyamides, easier processing and superior wash and light fastness.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 1999Date of Patent: March 13, 2001Assignee: Imperial Chemical Industries PLCInventors: Geoffrey William Collins, Stephen Martin Burkinshaw, Roy Gordon

Patent number: 5498267Abstract: Process and use of reactive disperse dyes for dyeing and printing aminated, textile cotton and cotton-polyester blend fabricsHydroxyl-containing materials, in particular fiber materials, such as cellulose fiber materials, which have been modified with an amino-containing compound are dyed as such or in blend with polyester fibers with the aid of a fiber-reactive disperse dye in an aqueous, low-electrolyte or completely electrolyte-free medium and in the absence of an alkaline or alkali-donating agent at a temperature of between 100.degree. and 210.degree. C. Not only the modified cellulose-containing material but also the polyester material can be dyed in one and the same dyeing process with one and the same fiber reactive disperse dye. A uniform overall dyeing not only for modified hydroxyl-containing material but also for polyester material is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 1994Date of Patent: March 12, 1996Assignee: Hoechst AGInventors: Werner H. Russ, Andreas Schrell, Andreas von der Eltz

Patent number: 5496707Abstract: The present invention provides an assay method for hemicellulases comprising a) directly dyeing, using a reactive dye, an insoluble natural product, or a modified form of a natural fibre material; and b) adding the enzyme to the dyed product produced in step a) and, after a specific incubation period, separating the liquid component from the insoluble dyed product, e.g. by a simple filtration, and determining the amount of dyestuff liberated in the the separated solution by spectrophotometric means. A combined mixing and dispensing device for use in the method of the present invention is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 1994Date of Patent: March 5, 1996Assignees: Ciba-Geigy Corporation, Genencor International, Inc.Inventors: Beat Freiermuth, Dieter Werthemann, Alfred Gaertner, Spencer Fisk

Patent number: 5476518Abstract: A process for treating a dyed, velvet fabric is disclosed wherein two-toned color effects between the pile and the fabric backing are achieved. The preferred fabric comprises a cellulosic (cotton or rayon) or synthetic fiber weave backing dyed preferably with a non-disperse dye, e.g. a direct dye, and pile composed of cellulose acetate fibers dyed with a disperse dye. The dyed fabric is contacted with a dilute caustic solution, e.g., sodium hydroxide, for a period of time sufficient to at least partially or totally hydrolyze the cellulose acetate of the pile fiber, which noticeably also reduces the color intensity of the pile while having little effect on the color intensity of the backing. This is followed by rinsing, neutralization and conditioning of the treated fabric.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 1995Date of Patent: December 19, 1995Assignee: A. Wimpfheimer & Bro., Inc.Inventor: Nicholas Caleshu

Patent number: 5407448Abstract: A kit includes, in a preferred embodiment, untreated, undyed woven velvet-covered shoes, handbags, belts or costume accessories are supplied with an applicator holding a measured mount of a dye plus a finishing solution and a fixer. The velvet is made substantially of cellulosic yarns and the dye is cellulose specific. The finishing solution and fixer are applied, if a sheen is desired, then the dye is applied by brushing the item with the applicator tip until the dye has saturated the item and is used up. The item is allowed to stand at room temperature for at least 24 hours for the dye to set. Bleaching the dye from the item with a reducing agent prepares it for re-dyeing.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1993Date of Patent: April 18, 1995Inventors: M. Karl Brandt, Michael Reedy

Patent number: 5403362Abstract: An improved mordant solution and process for preparing fibers for dyeing and fixing natural dyes to fibers, particularly but not exclusively cellulose fibers, including cotton and linen, and synthetic fibers, including Rayon.RTM. and Tensel.TM.. The improved natural mordant solution comprises an aqueous solution of alum KAl(SO.sub.4) and soda ash Na.sub.2 CO.sub.3, most preferably an aqueous colloidal suspension of aluminum hydroxide. This mordant solution significantly improves the recognized measurable qualities of naturally dyed fibers, including light and washfastness, without using polluting heavy metal mordants. The improved mordant treatment and natural dye process includes first pretreating the fabric with an aqueous mordant wash, which increases the dye uptake in the dye bath, then treating the fabric with a second aqueous mordant wash, following dyeing, then preferably treating the dyed fabric with a final tannin wash, permanently setting the natural dye in the fibers or fabric.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 1993Date of Patent: April 4, 1995Assignee: Allegro Natural Dyes Inc.Inventor: Sally Gurley
