Abstract

Abstract Dyed fibrous materials made of or containing cellulose which were not bleached before dyeing are aftertreated in a combined bleaching and washing bath which can, optionally, contain as stabilizers derivatives of phosphonic or phosphorous acid, optionally as a combination with polyhydroxy compounds. The resulting materials have bright and brilliant shades. This aftertreatment makes it possible to by-pass the otherwise customary, time-consuming and expensive drying of the materials between a bleach before dyeing and the dyeing itself.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 21
Claim 1
Independent Claim 93 words
A process for treating unbleached cellulose fiber material comprising the steps of (i) dyeing said material with a vat, direct or reactive dye which is stable to the liquor used in step (ii) and subsequently (ii) bleaching and washing the dyed material in a liquor containing a bleaching agent and a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of (a) an adduct of an aminoalkanediphosphonic acid and an epihalogenohydrin, (b) a phosphonate oligomer, and (c) a reaction product of phosphorous acid and a carboxylic acid anhydride or halide, or a mixture of said stabilizers.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 93 words
A process for treating unbleached cellulose fiber material comprising the steps of (i) dyeing said material with a vat, direct or reactive dye which is stable to the liquor used in step (ii) and subsequently (ii) bleaching and washing the dyed material in a liquor containing a bleaching agent and a stabilizer selected from the group consisting of (a) an adduct of an aminoalkanediphosphonic acid and an epihalogenohydrin, (b) a phosphonate oligomer, and (c) a reaction product of phosphorous acid and a carboxylic acid anhydride or halide, or a mixture of said stabilizers.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 12 words
