Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a process for continuous dyeing a cellulosic fibrous substrate with a direct or reactive dye comprising the steps of (a) applying to the substrate an aqueous dyeing liquor containing an alkanolamine, followed by (b) fixing the dyeings, and finally (c) after-treating the dyed substrate with a fixing agent, the resulting dyeings having improved wet fastnesses.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 20
Claim 1
Independent Claim 141 words
A process for continuous dyeing a cellulosic fibrous substrate with a direct or reactive dye comprising the steps of (a) applying to the substrate an aqueous dyeing liquor containing a direct or reactive dye and an alkanolamine, followed by (b) fixing the dyeings, and finally (c) after-treating the dyed substrate with a fixing agent comprising a precondensate or mixture of either (A) the product of reacting a mono- or polyfunctional primary or secondary amine with cyanamide, dicyandiamide, guanidine or bisguanidine; or ammonia with cyanamide or dicyandiamide, said product (A) containing reactive hydrogen atoms bound to nitrogen, or (B) a quaternary polyalkylene polyamine containing reactive hydroxy or amino groups with (C) an N-methylol derivative of a urea, melamine, guanamine, triazinone, urone, carbamate or acid amide, optionally together with (D) a catalyst for the crosslinking of N-methylol compounds of the type (C) above.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 141 words
A process for continuous dyeing a cellulosic fibrous substrate with a direct or reactive dye comprising the steps of (a) applying to the substrate an aqueous dyeing liquor containing a direct or reactive dye and an alkanolamine, followed by (b) fixing the dyeings, and finally (c) after-treating the dyed substrate with a fixing agent comprising a precondensate or mixture of either (A) the product of reacting a mono- or polyfunctional primary or secondary amine with cyanamide, dicyandiamide, guanidine or bisguanidine; or ammonia with cyanamide or dicyandiamide, said product (A) containing reactive hydrogen atoms bound to nitrogen, or (B) a quaternary polyalkylene polyamine containing reactive hydroxy or amino groups with (C) an N-methylol derivative of a urea, melamine, guanamine, triazinone, urone, carbamate or acid amide, optionally together with (D) a catalyst for the crosslinking of N-methylol compounds of the type (C) above.
Claim 3
