ABSTRACT:

This invention relates to the technical field of fiber-reactive azo dyes.
Japanese Patent Application Publication Hei-1-170 661 discloses mixtures of yellow-dyeing monoazo dyes having a fiber-reactive group of the vinyl sulfone series, but they have certain application defects.
As with individual dyes, it is important for dye mixtures to provide dyeings having a good color yield, i.e., dyeings whose depth of shade is very high in relation to the amount of dye used, because of the coloring property of the dye mixture and because of its dyeing characteristics, such as good affinity and a high yield of fixation. In general, the color yield obtained with a mixture of two dyes will be the average of the color yields of the individual dyes. The color yield of a mixture of two dyes will therefore be lower than the color yield of the individual dye having the larger color yield property.
The present invention, then, provides dye mixtures which provide dyeings having a color yield which is surprisingly distinctly higher than the average of the color yields of the dyeings of the individual dyes in the dye mixture. This synergistic effect also shows itself in improved build-up characteristics on the part of the mixture of the invention compared with the individual dyes in the mixture.
The invention accordingly provides dye mixtures comprising one or more, such as two or three, preferably one or two, dyes of the hereinbelow indicated and defined general formula (1) and one or more, such as two or three, preferably one or two, dyes of the hereinbelow indicated and defined general formula (2a) or (2b) or (2a) and (2b) in a molar ratio of the dyes (1) to the dyes (2a) or (2b) or a combination of the dyes (2a) and (2b) of 70:30 to 30:70, preferably 60:40 to 40:60:
