Abstract

Abstract A composition for dyeing material of synthetic aromatic polyamide fibers, including a cationic dye and a dye assistant, which is a mixture of N-substituted phthalimide and an emulsifier. The N-substituted phthalimide is preferably a 2:1 mole ratio of N-butyl phthalimide and isopropyl phthalimide. The emulsifier is preferably propylene oxide and ethylene oxide block polymer, and an anionic surfactant blend and an anionic/cationic surfactant blend.
