Abstract
Abstract A process for the dyeing of textiles which consist totally or partially of cellulose fibers, with reactive dyes according to the batchwise exhaustion method, which comprises using aqueous dye liquors containing one or several reactive dyes as well as at least one neutral electrolyte, the initial pH values of said liquors being in the slightly acid range, in the high temperature range at 110 DEG to 140 DEG C. without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agents.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
84 words
In a process for the dyeing of a textile consisting of or containing cellulose fibers, with one or more reactive dyes according to the batchwise exhaustion method, the improvement which comprises dyeing with an aqueous dye liquor containing one or more reactive dyes and at least one neutral electrolyte, the initial pH value of said dye liquor being in the slightly acid range, at a temperature in the range of from 110° to 140° C., without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
84 words
In a process for the dyeing of a textile consisting of or containing cellulose fibers, with one or more reactive dyes according to the batchwise exhaustion method, the improvement which comprises dyeing with an aqueous dye liquor containing one or more reactive dyes and at least one neutral electrolyte, the initial pH value of said dye liquor being in the slightly acid range, at a temperature in the range of from 110° to 140° C., without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
A process as defined in claim 1, which comprises dyeing a mixture of cellulose and polyester fibers in a two-stage, one-bath operation, the dye liquor additionally containing one or more disperse dyes, but not containing an acid-yielding agent.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
38 words
A process as defined in claim 1, which comprises dyeing a mixture of cellulose and polyester fibers in a one-stage, one-bath operation, the dye liquor additionally containing one or more disperse dyes, but not containing an acid-yielding agent.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
28 words
A process as defined in claim 1, 2 or 3, which comprises contacting the textile with the dye liquor for a time of from 5 to 30 minutes.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
41 words
A process as defined in claim 1, 2 or 3, which further comprises aftertreating of the dyed textile, following the dyeing operation, without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agent and without the addition of an acid or acid-yielding agent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a process for the dyeing of a textile consisting of or containing cellulose fibers, with one or more reactive dyes according to the batchwise exhaustion method, the improvement which consists essentially of dyeing with an aqueous dye liquor containing one or more reactive dyes and at least one neutral electrolyte, the initial pH value of said dye liquor being in the slightly acid range, at a temperature in the range of from 110° to 140° C., without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
86 words
In a process for the dyeing of a textile consisting of or containing cellulose fibers, with one or more reactive dyes according to the batchwise exhaustion method, the improvement which consists essentially of dyeing with an aqueous dye liquor containing one or more reactive dyes and at least one neutral electrolyte, the initial pH value of said dye liquor being in the slightly acid range, at a temperature in the range of from 110° to 140° C., without the addition of an alkali or alkali-yielding agent.
