Title: Process for the production of complex copper compounds of direct-dyeing dyestuffs on the fibre
IPC: D06P5/00
Filed: 1954-10-08
Abstract: Complex copper compounds of direct-dyeing metallizable dyestuffs are formed on the fibre by applying a direct-dyeing metallizable dyestuff to the fibre simultaneously with or prior to the application of cuprous thiocyanate.  The process is applicable to dyeing and printing and the printing paste may contain the thiocyanate in association with the metallizable dyestuff.  In the case of dyeing, the thiocyanate may be applied to the dyed fibres in a fresh bath, or it may be added to the dyebath itself, advantageously after extensive exhaustion. Dyeing may be effected on a foulard with a cold liquor containing the dissolved metallizable dyestuff and the thiocyanate in suspension followed by steaming, with or without an intermediate drying.  The dyed materials may be subjected to a reductive discharge paste after steaming to produce prints, or they may be over printed. The printing process may be combined with azoic printing, the fabric being first impregnated with a coupling agent and then printed with a paste containing the metallizable dyestuff and cuprous thiocyanate and also with a paste containing a diazotized base.  The thiocyanate containing printing paste may also contain thiodiglycol, urea, sodium hydroxide or carbonate, potassium carbonate, disodium or trisodium phosphate, sodium pyrophosphate or polyphoshates, monoammonium phosphate and the usual thickeners.  The prints may be after-treated with a cationactive amine-formaldehyde condensation product. Numerous examples are given, in one of which a cotton or viscose rayon fabric, dyed on the foulard with a cold liquid containing a metallizable dyestuff and cuprous thiocyanate, is steamed, washed and dried, or dried, steamed, washed and dried or merely dried, and then printed with a sodium formaldehydesulphoxylated discharge paste.
