Abstract:
A dye additive suitable for use in improving the dyeing of aramid fibers includes non-water components dissolved in water. The non-water components include about 20-25% (w/w) sodium or potassium nitrate; about 20-25% (w/w) ketone solvent; about 30-40% (w/w) aromatic solvent; about 1-5% (w/w) of each of glycol ether, biodegradable solvent, acetic acid 56% strength or equivalent or equivalent amount of formic acid, brine salt, sodium or potassium hydroxide, and phenylenediamine, about 1-10% (w/w) of each of a strong acid, hydroxycarboxylic acid, and lanolin; wherein the water makes up about 50-70% of the weight of the dye additive and the non-water components make up about 30-50% of the dye additive. The dye additive may be added to a dye bath at a w/w percentage of about 0.25% to about 6%.

Claim (Index 1):
A dye bath additive comprising water and non-water components, wherein:\n the non-water components comprise\n about 20-25% (w/w) sodium or potassium nitrate, \n about 20-25% (w/w) ketone solvent, \n about 30-40% (w/w) aromatic solvent, \n about 1-5% (w/w) of each of the following: glycol ether, biodegradable solvent; acetic acid 56% strength or equivalent or an equivalent amount of formic acid; brine salt; sodium or potassium hydroxide; and phenylenediamine, \n about 1-10% (w/w) of each of the following: strong acid; hydroxycarboxylic acid; and lanolin, \n wherein the percentages of the sodium or potassium nitrate, the ketone solvent, the aromatic solvent, the glycol ether, the biodegradable solvent, the acetic acid 56% strength or equivalent or equivalent amount of formic acid, the brine salt, the sodium or potassium hydroxide, the phenylenediamine, the strong acid, the hydroxycarboxylic acid, and the lanolin add up to 100; \n wherein the non-water components make up about 30-50% of the total weight of the dye additive and the water makes up about 50-70% of the total weight of the dye additive; and the non-water components are dissolved in the water.
