Abstract

The present invention provides dye mixtures containing a dye of the formula (I) and a dye of the formulae (II) where Z is —CH═CH 2 or —CH 2 CH 2 Z 1 and Z 1 is hydroxyl or an alkali-eliminable group; and M is hydrogen, an alkali metal or one equivalent of an alkaline earth metal. The invention also relates to a process for their preparation and their use.

Claims (20)

1. Dye mixture consisting of a dye of the formula (I)

and a dye of the formulae (II)

where

Z is —CH═CH 2 or —CH 2 CH 2 Z 1 and

Z 1 is hydroxyl or an alkali-eliminable group; and

M is hydrogen, an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal.

2. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the dye or dyes of the formula (I) are present in an amount of 1% to 99% by weight and the dye or dyes of the formula (II) are present in an amount of 1% to 99% by weight all based on total dye.

3. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherin the dye or dyes of the formula (I) are present in an amount of 10% to 90% by weight and the dye or dyes of the formula (II) are present in an amount of 10% to 90% by weight, all based on total dye.

4. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherein M is hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium or calcium.

5. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherein M is hydrogen or sodium.

6. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherein Z is —CH═CH 2 .

7. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , wherein Z is —CH 2 CH 2 Z 1 .

8. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 7 , wherein Z 1 is hydroxyl, halogen atoms, ester groups of organic carboxylic and sulfonic acids, benzoyloxy, sulfobenzoyloxy, phenylsulfonyloxy and toluoylsulfonyloxy, acidic ester groups of inorganic acids, or dialkylamino groups having alkyl groups of 1 to 4 carbon atoms each.

9. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 7 , wherein Z 1 is hydroxyl, chlorine and bromine, alkylcarboxylic acids, substituted or unsubstituted benzenecarboxylic acids, substituted or unsubstituted benzenesulfonic acids, acetyloxy, benzoyloxy, sulfobenzoyloxy, phenylsulfonyloxy toluoylsulfonyloxy, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid thiosulfuric acid dimethylamino or diethylamino.

10. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 7 , wherein Z 1 is vinyl, β-chloroethyl or β-sulfatoethyl.

11. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 10 , wherein M is hydrogen or sodium.

12. The dye mixture as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the dye or dyes of the formula (I) are present in an amount of 30% to 70% by weight and the dye or dyes of the formula (II) are present in an amount of 30% to 70% by weight, all based on total dye.

13. A process for preparing a dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 , which comprises mixing the individual dyes mechanically with each or one another.

14. A process for dyeing or printing of carboxamido- and/or hydroxyl-containing material which comprises contacting the material with the dye mixture according to claim 1 .

15. An ink for digital textile printing by the inkjet process, which comprises the dye mixture as claimed in claim 1 .
