Abstract

Abstract Pourable, stable aqueous solutions to pastes consisting essentially of about 5-50% by weight of an acid dyestuff, a direct dyestuff or a flourescent brightening agent containing at least 1 sulfonic acid substituent and about 1-20% by weight of a water soluble thiocyanate such as ammonium thiocyanate. Such compositions are characterized by greater stability and fluidity and increased color value, as compared with a solution or paste, of the same concentration, of such dyestuffs but which do not contain a water soluble thiocyanate. The incorporation of a small amount, about 0.1-2% by weight, of an acetylenic glycol into such compositions, in the case of many dyestuffs further enhances the stability, fluidity and/or color value of the composition.
