Abstract
Abstract By the slow stepwise heating up of an aqueous suspension of the crystallographically amorphous dye of the formula ##STR1## which dye is unstable to dyeing, to a temperature of 90°-100° C. with a halting point at 40°-60° C., this dye can be transformed completely into the crystalline α-modification. The novel dye modification can be easily converted, without increase of viscosity, into thinly liquid formulations which are readily pourable, which form no sediment, and which are excellently suitable for producing printing pastes, for example for printing polyester fabric.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
67 words
A modification of the dye of the formula ##STR3## which modification is stable to dyeing and is characterised by the X-ray diffraction pattern (CuK-α-radiation) with the characteristic reflexes shown in FIG. 1, and by the d values of the interplanar spacings, calculated from the diffraction pattern: d [A]: 11.5 (s), 6.8 (vs), 4.71 (s), 4.17 (s), 3.60 (s), 3.49 (s), 3.44 (vs), 3.34 (vs) and 3.21 (s).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
67 words
A modification of the dye of the formula ##STR3## which modification is stable to dyeing and is characterised by the X-ray diffraction pattern (CuK-α-radiation) with the characteristic reflexes shown in FIG. 1, and by the d values of the interplanar spacings, calculated from the diffraction pattern: d [A]: 11.5 (s), 6.8 (vs), 4.71 (s), 4.17 (s), 3.60 (s), 3.49 (s), 3.44 (vs), 3.34 (vs) and 3.21 (s).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
54 words
A process for producing the α-modification stable to dyeing according to claim 1, which process comprises heating the crystallographically amorphous dye of the given formula in an aqueous suspension for 1 to 20 hours at a temperature of between 20° and 100° C. in a manner ensuring that the dye particles do not melt.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
54 words
A process according to claim 2, wherein the amorphous dye of the stated formula is gradually heated to 90°-100° C., with a halting point at 40°-60° C., and a heating rate of 0.1°-1° C. per minute, the period of time at the halting point being 0.5-2 hours, and at the final point 0.5-5 hours.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
23 words
A process according to claim 3, wherein the halting point is at 50° C. and the heating-up rate is 0.4°-0.7° C. per minute.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A process according to any one of claims 2-4, wherein as starting material there is used directly the aqueous coupling suspension occurring in the production of the amorphous dye.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
37 words
A process for dyeing and printing synthetic or semi-synthetic fibre materials by the use of printing pastes obtained by application of the α-modification of the azo dye according to claim 1, which modification is stable to dyeing.
