Abstract

Abstract Concentrated, aqueous preparations of 1:2 metal complex dyes which contain 10 to 30% by weight of a 1:2 metal complex dye, 3 to 25% by weight of an anionic dispersant, 1 to 15% by weight of a polyhydroxy compound and 0 to 25% by weight of a customary formulation assistant, in each case based on the total preparation, and water in an amount such that the sum of all the components is 100%, have an excellent stability, are readily pourable and can be diluted with water as desired, and are therefore particularly suitable for the preparation of dyebaths or printing pastes which are employed, in particular, for continuous dyeing or printing of textile fibrous materials of synthetic polyamide.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 86 words
A stable, concentrated, aqueous colloidal or dispersed preparation of a 1:2 metal complex dye, which comprises (1) 10 to 30% by weight of a 1:2 metal complex dye, (2) 3 to 30% by weight of an anionic dispersant, (3) 1 to 15% by weight of a polyalcohol of 2 to 6 hydroxy groups and 2 to 6 carbon atoms and (4) 0 to 25% by weight of a customary formulation assistant, and water in an amount such that the sum of all the components is 100%.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 86 words
A stable, concentrated, aqueous colloidal or dispersed preparation of a 1:2 metal complex dye, which comprises (1) 10 to 30% by weight of a 1:2 metal complex dye, (2) 3 to 30% by weight of an anionic dispersant, (3) 1 to 15% by weight of a polyalcohol of 2 to 6 hydroxy groups and 2 to 6 carbon atoms and (4) 0 to 25% by weight of a customary formulation assistant, and water in an amount such that the sum of all the components is 100%.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
A preparation according to claim 1, which contains a 1:2 metal complex of an azo or azomethine dye or a mixture of these dyes as component (1).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
A preparation according to claim 2, which contains a 1:2 cobalt or chromium complex of an azo or azomethine dye which contains a complexing group, in the o-position relative to the azo/azomethine bridge as component (1).
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
A preparation of claim 3 wherein the complexing group is selected from the group consisting of amino, carboxyl and hydroxyl groups.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
A preparation according to claim 1, which contains a condensation product of an aromatic sulfonic acid and formaldehyde or a lignin- or oxyligninsulfonic acid or a mixture thereof as component (2).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 95 words
A preparation according to claim 5, which contains a condensation product of a substituted or unsubstituted naphthalenesulfonic acid and formaldehyde, a condensation product of a naphthalenesulfonic acid, formaldehyde and a benzenesulfonic acid, a condensation product of a substituted or unsubstituted phenol- or cresolsulfonic acid and formaldehyde, an alkali metal salt of a condensation product of a substituted or unsubstituted phenolsulfonic acid, formaldehyde and urea, a condensation product of ditolyl ether, formaldehyde and sulfuric acid, an alkali metal salt or ammonium salt of a ligninsulfonic acid or oxyligninsulfonic acid or a mixture thereof as component (2).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 31 words
A preparation according to claim 6, which contains ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, glycerol, trimethylolethane, trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol or sorbitol or a mixture thereof as component (3).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 78 words
A preparation according to claim 1, which contains (1) 10 to 20% by weight of a 1:2 metal complex dye, (2) 5 to 20% by weight of an anionic dispersant, (3) 2 to 12% by weight of a polyalcohol of 2 to 6 hydroxy groups and 2 to 6 carbon atoms and (4) 0 to 25% by weight of a customary formulation assistant, and water in an amount such that the sum of all the components is 100%.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 54 words
A process for the preparation of a preparation according to claim 1, which comprises converting the dye into a free-flowing mixture with water and components (2), (3) and optionally (4), subsequently subjecting this mixture to mechanical comminution and then optionally adjusting the mixture to the desired concentration with water and optionally other formulation assistants.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 33 words
A method of dyeing or printing nitrogen-containing, fibrous, textile materials which comprises applying to the textile material, a padding liquor, dyebath liquor or a printing paste prepared from a preparation of claim 1.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 13 words
A method of claim 10 wherein the textile material is a synthetic polyamide.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 22 words
A preparation of claim 1 wherein the particle size of the dye is in the range from about 1 to 5 micrometers.
