Abstract

Abstract An aqueous dispersion of (1) a water-insoluble salt of a cationic dye and a selected anion of an arylsulfonic acid with (2) an anionic dispersing agent selected from lignin sulfonate or a salt of a sulfonated naphthalene-formaldehyde condensate has been found useful in the high-temperature dyeing of acid modified acrylic, polyamide, or polyester fibers, either alone or in blend by continuous dyeing operations. The salts can be represented by the formulas D+Ar''SO3- and K+ArSO3+where D+ is a cationic dye having a resonating or delocalized positive charge and Ar'' is an aryl group substituted with substituents such that the summation of the pKa increments for the substituents is equal to or less than -0.9; and K+ is a cationic dye having a localized positive charge and Ar is an aryl group substituted with substituents such that the summation of the pKa increments for the substituents is equal to or less than -0.6.
