Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to concentrated solutions in organic solvents of special mixtures of 1-4-dialkyl-amino-anthraquinone dyes particularly useful for the coloring of hydrocarbons. The solutions of this invention are particularly useful for the coloring of hydrocarbons obtained by distillation of crude oil such, for example, as petrol kerosene and gas oil. The invention also includes the preparation of the aforementioned concentrated solutions, including direct preparation of the solutions during the synthesis phase of the anthraquinone dyes.
