Abstract
Abstract Process for the continuous coloration of aromatic polyester or cellulose triacetate textile materials and of unions of aromatic polyester with cellulose, by applying to the textile material for the polyester or triacetate a disperse azo dyestuff containing a single carboxylic acid ester group and at least two cyano groups, and for the cellulose component of a union a reactive or other dyestuff, followed by an alkaline rinse of the colored textile material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
196 words
A process for the continuous colouration of aromatic polyester or cellulose triacetate textile materials which comprises continuously applying to the said textile materials a disperse azo dyestuff wherein an aqueous dispersion of the disperse azo dyestuff is padded onto the textile material or a thickened printing paste is applied to the surface of the textile material, the dyestuff then being fixed on the textile material by steaming it at a temperature between 100° and 180° C. or baking it at a temperature between 160° and 220° C., the disperse azo dyestuff being free from carboxylic acid and sulphonic acid groups and being represented by the formula: A--N=N--E wherein A is the residue of a diazotisable aromatic amine A--NH 2 and E is the residue of a coupling component which is an aromatic or heterocyclic amine, an aromatic hydroxy compound, a pyrazolone or an active aliphatic methylene compound, each dyestuff containing a single carboxylic ester group and at least two cyano groups, and subsequently giving the coloured textile material a treatment in an aqueous alkaline bath which does not contain a reducing agent at a pH above 8 and at the temperature between 50° and 85° C.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
196 words
A process for the continuous colouration of aromatic polyester or cellulose triacetate textile materials which comprises continuously applying to the said textile materials a disperse azo dyestuff wherein an aqueous dispersion of the disperse azo dyestuff is padded onto the textile material or a thickened printing paste is applied to the surface of the textile material, the dyestuff then being fixed on the textile material by steaming it at a temperature between 100° and 180° C. or baking it at a temperature between 160° and 220° C., the disperse azo dyestuff being free from carboxylic acid and sulphonic acid groups and being represented by the formula: A--N=N--E wherein A is the residue of a diazotisable aromatic amine A--NH 2 and E is the residue of a coupling component which is an aromatic or heterocyclic amine, an aromatic hydroxy compound, a pyrazolone or an active aliphatic methylene compound, each dyestuff containing a single carboxylic ester group and at least two cyano groups, and subsequently giving the coloured textile material a treatment in an aqueous alkaline bath which does not contain a reducing agent at a pH above 8 and at the temperature between 50° and 85° C.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the coloured textile material is given a treatment in an aqueous bath which does not contain a reducing agent which has a temperature from 60° to 80° C. and a pH from 10.0 to 11.5.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
81 words
A process for the continuous colouration of aromatic polyester/cellulose unions which comprises continuously applying to the said unions a non-reactive dyestuff or pigment for the cellulose and a disperse azo dyestuff as defined in claim 1 for the aromatic polyester, fixing the dyestuffs on the union and thereafter subjecting the coloured union to a treatment in an aqueous alkaline bath which does not contain a reducing agent at a pH above 8.0 and at a temperature between 50° and 85° C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
A process as claimed in claim 3 wherein the non-reactive dyestuff for the cellulose is a Direct, Vat, Sulphur, Pigment or Azoic colouring matter.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
32 words
A process as claimed in claim 3 or claim 4 wherein the treatment in the aqueous alkaline bath is carried out after both types of dyestuff have been fixed on the union.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
79 words
A process for the continuous colouration of aromatic polyester/cellulose unions which comprises continuously applying to the said unions a reactive dyestuff for the cellulose and a disperse azo dyestuff as defined in claim 1 for the aromatic polyester, fixing the dyestuffs on the union and thereafter subjecting the coloured union to a treatment in an aqueous alkaline bath which does not contain a reducing agent at a pH above 8 and at a temperature between 50° and 85° C.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
42 words
A process as claimed in claim 6 wherein the reactive-dyestuff contains as the fibre-reactive group a heterocyclic ring having two or three nitrogen atoms in the ring and at least one labile substituent attached to a carbon atom of the heterocyclic ring.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
30 words
A process as claimed in claim 7 wherein the reactive dyestuff contains a triazine or pyrimidine ring having as the labile substituent at least one chlorine, bromine or fluorine atom.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
87 words
A process as claimed in claim 7 wherein the union is continuously padded or printed with a padding liquor or a print paste containing the disperse dyestuff, said reactive dyestuff, and an alkaline agent, the padded or printed union then being subjected to a heat treatment to fix the dyestuffs on the union, the coloured union then being given a treatment in an aqueous alkaline bath which does not contain a reducing agent at a pH above 8.0 and at a temperature between 50° and 85° C.
