The bisazo compound of the present invention is fiber-reactive, and suitable for dyeing and printing organic materials containing a hydroxyl group and/or amide group, particularly, cellulose fiber, natural or synthetic polyamide fiber, polyurethane fiber, leather, or a mix spun material containing at least one of them.
The hydroxyl group-containing material may be, for example, a natural or synthetic hydroxyl group-containing material, such as a cellulose fiber material or its regenerated product, polyvinylalcohol and the like. The cellulose fiber material are preferably cotton or other vegetable fiber, such as linen, hemp, jute and ramie fiber. The regenerated cellulose fiber material is, for example, viscose staple or filament viscose.
The carbonamide group-containing material may be, for example, synthetic or natural polyamide, polyurethane, or leather. In particular, fibrous materials, such as wool, other animal hair, silk, polyamide-6,6, polyamide-6, polyamide-11 and polyamide-4 are exemplified.
The compound of the present invention can be used for dyeing or printing the above-descried material, particularly the above-described fiber material by a method according to the physicochemical conditions.
For example, exhaustion dyeing is conducted onto a cellulose fiber material at relatively low temperature in the presence of an acid-bonding agent such as sodium carbonate, tertiary sodium phosphate or sodium hydroxide, optionally mirabilite or sodium chloride being added, and if desired, using a dissolving aid, penetrant or level dyeing agent together. A neutral salt which promotes exhaustion of a dye can be added after the intended dyeing temperature is accomplished, or before it, and, in some cases, may be added in portions.
When a cellulose fiber material is dyed according to a padding method, the padding is conducted at room temperature or elevated temperature. After drying, fixing can be effected by steaming or dry heating.
Printing on a cellulose fiber material can be carried out by applying a printing paste, such as those containing sodium hydrogen carbonate and other acid bonding agent, on the fiber material, then by conducting steaming at 95 to 160.degree. C. (one-phase), or by applying a neutral or weak acidic printing paste on the fiber material, and passing this through a hot alkaline bath containing an electrolyte, or conducting over-padding with a padding solution containing an alkaline electrolyte, then effecting steaming or dry heating treatment. (two-phase)
For the printing paste, a pasting agent or an emulsifying agent such as sodium alginate and starch ether is used. Optionally, a usual printing auxiliary such as urea and/or a dispersing agent may be used together.
An acid bonding agent suitable for fixing the bisazo compound (1) of the present invention on cellulose fiber can be, for example, a hydroxide of alkaline metal, a water-soluble basic salt of alkaline metal or alkaline earth metal with an inorganic or organic acid, or a compound which eliminates an alkali in heated condition. In particular, a hydroxide of alkaline metal and an alkaline metal salt of an inorganic or organic acid of weak or medium strength are listed. Among them, a hydroxide of sodium or potassium, a sodium salt and potassium salt are preferred. Specific examples of such acid bonding agents include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium formate, potassium carbonate, sodium primary, secondary or tertiary phosphate, sodium silicate and sodium trichloroacetate.
Dyeing of synthetic or natural polyamide and polyurethane fiber can be conducted by firstly exhausting a dye onto fiber from an acidic or weak acidic dye bath under controling pH, followed by changing pH value to neutral or alkaline range for fixing. Dyeing can be usually conducted at a temperature from 60 to 120.degree. C. To attain satisfactory levelness, there can also be used a usual leveling agent, such as a condensation product of cyanuric chloride with aminobenzenesulfonic acid or aminonaphthakenesulfonic acid in an amount of 3-times by mol, or an adduct of stearylamine with ethylene oxide.
The bisazo compound (1) of the present invention imparts itself orange to scarlet or red color tone on a fiber material. To obtain desired color other than orange to scarlet, the compound (1) may be mixed with other dye in an amount which does not impair features of the present invention. A dye to be mixed and used is not particularly restricted provided that it is a reactive dye.
