    The present invention relates to a method of dyeing or printing cellulosic fibre materials with vattable dyes, which in the context of this invention are to be understood as including both vat dyes and sulfur dyes. In the dyeing of denim, normally the only dye used is indigo and the only fibre used is 100% cotton. In a single-pass dyeing operation, only about 10 to 20% ofleuco indigo is absorbed by the fibres.

[0001] The present invention relates to method of dyeing, ‘or printing cellulosic fibre materials with vattable dyes, ‘which in the context of this invention are to be understood including both vat dyes and sulfur dyes. [0002] The dyeing or printing of cellulosic textile mate~ rials with vat dyes is generally knowin. In order to impart the rexjired substantivity to the Waterinsoluble vat dye that is to say in order to ix it on the textile material, it must fst be converted ino a substantive water-soluble leuco form by reduction (vatting) and then developed to the dye pigment sain by oxidation, [0003] Inthe dyeing of denim, normally the only dye wed js indigo and the only fbre used is 100% cotton. In a single-pass dyeing operation, only about 1010 20% of leueo indigo is absorbed by the fibres. Because of this low bath ‘exhuustion, dyeing with indigo by batchwise exhaust pro- ‘esses is not very widespread. I is therefore sual 1 eatry ‘out the dyeing process continuously in several passes, i. 18 several steps. Very long machines having from 8 t0 10 units ‘are accordingly used, each unit consisting of an application device for the vat (padding machine) and a. subsequent skying stage for r-oxidation. In such « method, whieh usually allows yarn to be dyed in the form ofa rope or hank for in the form of a warp sheet, the vatted indigo dye is applied from a plurality of dye liquors of large volume by repented brief immersion as well as squcering out and ‘oxidation inthe intermediate skying stages [0004] The vat is at room tempersture in all cases, and so the padding machine is not heatable. In this way there is ‘obtained an indigo dyeing in which virally only the outer {hres of the yarns are coloured by the dye and those fibres ae themselves dyed only very superficially (ring dyeing). By abrasion in stone-wash treatments, The dye is rubbed sway especially on exposed arcas of the made-up denim aticle. As a result te readily visible ageing process desired by the market is obtained, that process also continuing during domestic washing [0008] Two types of machine are usually used for dyein warp yam for denim: the bank or rope dyei Which dhe warp yams are brought together to forma plurality ‘of hanks or ropes (rope dyeing), oF the open-width dyeing machine, in which the warp yam is dyed in open wit (slasher ‘dysing). A sizing process is intograted into the ‘dyeing process. Thereafter, the dyed yam is woven with an undyed, raw weft yarn [0006] The colour yield of indigo in the repion of about pl 1S substantially higher than at pH 12.5 0 13. Inaddition, the difusion of indigo into the ihre i greater inthe higher pH range, which reduces the surface elloct desired for ‘denim. Ii therefore advantageous to cary out dyeing with indigo in a range around pll 11.5 in onder to obtain & good ‘colour yield withthe desired ring-dyeing effet. In industrial indigo dyeing machines, however, not ll dye baths have an alkali metering unit wth pH monitoring, so that monitoring, the pH is a problem, Sep. 20, 2007 [0007] In addition to traditional blue denim there i ‘demand for denim goods that include other colour shades ‘and likewise exhibit the desired “stone-wash’” effet. Unlike indigo, however, most vat dyes are in their leuco form istinguished by'a higher ality forthe bres and accord- ‘ingly by higher bath exhaustion, making it vtwally impo sible forring-dyed yarn to be produced under the conditions of indigo dyeing. Such vat dyes therefore eannot be applied "under the conventional conditions of indigo dyeing, [0008] ‘The problem underlying the present invention isto provide an economical method of dyeing and printing cotton fn indigo and non-indigoid shades, which method can be carried out especially under the eanditons of indigo dyeing ‘on conventional types of machine and enables a broad spectrum of eolonrs to be obiined, The dyeings should also exhibit a high degree of levelness high tnctoial streagth ‘and depth of shade as well a the rng-dyeing elect which is characteristic of classic denim articles. [0009] The present invention accordingly relates to a method of dyeing or printing cellulosic fibre materials, ‘wherein the fibre material is brought into contact with st Jeast one vattable dye and atleast one quinoid compounel in ‘an aqueous composition at a pH of less than 12, eletro- chemical methods being excluded, [0010] Ia the method according to the invention, the cellulosic bre material is dyed or printed with vatable dyes, stich as eg. vat dyes or sulfur dyes, preferably vat dyes. The vat dyes are either indigo or anthraguinoid or indigoid dyes. Vat dyes and sulfur dyes have boen known for a Jong time, are commercially available and are described eg. in the Colour Index (C.1.), 3d Fiton, 1971, Volum pages 3719 to 384 and also in Volume 4 under C.l. Nos. ‘58000 10 74000, [0011] Vat dyes suitable for the method according to the invention correspond eto formulae a US 2007/0214581 Al -eontinved ° @ [0012] Quinoid compounds are e.g, derivatives of benzo= ‘quinone, — naphthoguinone, acenaphthenequinone oF anthraguinone containing halogen, amino, hydroxy, ear boxslicaeid andlor sulfonie acid groups, such as hydroxy- anthraquinones, eg, 2-hydroxyanthraguinone, 1,2-dihy~ droxyanthraguinone or 1,4-dinydroxyanthraquinone, hsloanthraguinones, eg. _I-chloro-anthraquinone antzaguinonecarboxylic acids, anthraguinonesulfonie ds, eg. anthraquinone-L-sulfonie acid, athraquinone-2- sulfonic acid, anthraquinone-1.S-disufonic acid, snthraguinone-2,6-disulfonic acid or 14-diaminoan- thraguinone-2-slfonie acid. The said quinoid eompounds ‘ean be used singly oF in admixture. [0013] Preferred as quinoid compounds are antbraquino- nes, preferably anthraquinones containing, sulfonic acid groups, such as eg. anthraquinone-I-sulfonic acid, anthraguinone-2-sulfonie acid, ~anthraquinone-1,5-isul- Tonic seid or authraquinone-2,6-disufonie acid and espe- ally anthraquinone-2-sulfonie acid [0014] The acid-group-
