Mixtures of optical brighteners consisting of 1 to 60% by weight of a brightener from the bisbenzoxazolylnaphthalene series and 99 to 40% by weight of one or more brighteners of the formulae 2 to 10 listed in the description.

Mixtures of optical brighteners and their use

Mixtures of optical brighteners composed of

Mixtures of optical brighteners

Mixtures of optical brighteners consisting of from (a) 0.98 to 0.50 part by weight of a mixture consisting of from 0.05 to 0.95 part by weight of a brightener of the series of the benzoxazolyl-stilbenes and of from 0.95 to 0.05 part by weight of a brightener of the series of the aryltriazoles and (b) of from 0.02 to 0.5 part by weight of a brightener of the series of the bis-benzoxazolyl-stilbenes or of the bis-benzothiazolyl-stilbenes.

Mixtures of optical brighteners and their use for the optical brightening

Mixtures of optical brighteners consisting of 5 to 95% by weight of a compound of the formula ##STR1## in which A denotes a o- or p-cyanophenyl group, and 95 to 5% by weight of one or more further optical brighteners.

Mixtures of optical brighteners consisting of 5 to 95 parts by weight of a mixture consisting of 0 to 80% by weight of the compound of the formula 1 ##STR1## 20 to 100% by weight of the compound of the formula 2 ##STR2## and 0 to 80% by weight of the compound of the formula 3 ##STR3## and 95 to 5% by weight of one or more other optical brighteners.

Mixture of optical brighteners consisting of from 0.5 to 0.95 part by weight of a brightener of the series of the benzoxazolyl-stilbenes and of from 0.95 to 0.05 part by weight of a brightener of the series of the aryltriazoles.

A mixture of optical brighteners containing 0.05 to 0.95 part by weight of a compound from the benzoxazolyl- or benzothiazolylstilbene series and 0.95 to 0.05 part by weight of a compound of the bis-benzoxazolyl- or bis-benzothiazolylstilbene series or of the benzoxazolyl- or benzothiazolyl-stilbene oxazolo[5,4-6]pyridinyl or oxazolo[2,3-b]pyridinyl series. These mixtures show an enhanced degree of whiteness as compared to the same amount of the single components.
