Abstract
Abstract Dye compositions comprising one or more disperse dyes and one or more surfactants having a hydrophilic-lypophilic balance rating of about four to eight, and dyebaths comprising preferably at least a major proportion of a halogenated hydrocarbon with or without a minor proportion of water and the described dye composition, are highly effective in dyeing synthetic fibers such as nylon, acetate, and particularly polyester.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
41 words
A composition useful in nonaqueous, hydrophobic solvent dyeing comprising from 5-75 parts by weight of at least one nonionic, disperse dye and conversely from 95-25 parts by weight of one or more surfactants having a HLB rating of four to eight.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
41 words
A composition useful in nonaqueous, hydrophobic solvent dyeing comprising from 5-75 parts by weight of at least one nonionic, disperse dye and conversely from 95-25 parts by weight of one or more surfactants having a HLB rating of four to eight.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
115 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the dye is selected from azo, anthraquinone, diarylamine, methine, azo methine, disazo, styryl azo, quinaphthalone, acridone, and naphthazarin derivatives, and the surfactant is selected from ethoxylated alcohols, ethoxylated alcohol sulfates, alcohol sulfates, alkane sulfonates, alkanolamides, alkyl sulfonates, alkyl aryl sulfonates wherein the alkyl is 4-20 carbons, ethyloxylated alkyl phenols and their sulfonates wherein the alkyl is 4-20 carbons and the ethylene oxide is 2-10 units, ethoxylated amines, amides, and their sulfonates, aryl sulfonates, betamine derivatives, diphenyl sulfonate derivatives, ethoxylated fatty acids, fatty acid soaps, sulfonated fatty esters of fluorinated compounds, glyceryl esters, imidazoline derivatives, lecithin derivatives, monoglycerides, phosphate esters and ethoxylates, sulfosuccinate derivatives, tertiary amine oxides, and amide sulfates.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
49 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the dye is selected from ##STR17## and the surfactant is selected from sorbitan fatty acid esters such as sorbitan monostearate, fatty acid esters of sodium sulfosuccinate such as dioctyl or bis(tridecyl)sodium sulfosuccinate, salts of alkyl benzene sulfonic acid such as isopropylamine dodecylbenzene sulfonate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
13 words
A dyebath comprising the composition of claim 1 dispersed in a halogenated hydrocarbon.
