Abstract
Abstract According to two-phase processes multi-color effects are obtained on cellulosic materials, namely conversion effects with reactive and vat dyestuffs on the one hand and discharge resists prints with reactive dyestuffs and, optionally, vat dyestuffs on the other hand, by printing or padding the reactive dyestuff or a mixture of reactive and vat dyestuffs in a weakly acidic medium onto the material, overprinting this material with a neutral paste containing formamidine sulfinic acid as discharging agent and, if desired, a vat dyestuff, drying the print, contacting the material with an aqueous strongly alkaline liquor, steaming it and finishing the article in known manner, depending on the choice of dyestuffs.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
95 words
A two-phase process for preparing conversion articles with reactive and vat dyestuffs or discharge resist prints with reactive dyestuffs or a mixture of reactive and vat dyestuffs on cellulosic materials, which comprises (a) printing or padding the material with a weakly acidic printing paste or padding liquor containing the reaction dyestuff or the mixture of reactive and vat dyestuffs, (b) overprinting the material with a neutral printing paste containing formamidine sulfinic acid, (c) drying the material, (d) contacting the material with an aqueous strongly alkaline liquor, (e) steaming the material and (f) finishing the article.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
95 words
A two-phase process for preparing conversion articles with reactive and vat dyestuffs or discharge resist prints with reactive dyestuffs or a mixture of reactive and vat dyestuffs on cellulosic materials, which comprises (a) printing or padding the material with a weakly acidic printing paste or padding liquor containing the reaction dyestuff or the mixture of reactive and vat dyestuffs, (b) overprinting the material with a neutral printing paste containing formamidine sulfinic acid, (c) drying the material, (d) contacting the material with an aqueous strongly alkaline liquor, (e) steaming the material and (f) finishing the article.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the neutral printing paste contains a vat dyestuff.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein steaming is performed for 5 to 30 seconds with saturated steam.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the weakly acidic printing paste or padding liquor contains sodium dihydrogenphosphate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the strongly alkaline liquor contains an alkali metal hydroxide, carbonate or silicate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the strongly alkaline liquor is applied by passing the material through said liquor or, by spraying or padding the material.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
26 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, wherein the cellulosic material consists essentially of native or regenerated cellulose fibers or of a mixture of such fibers.
