Cellulosic textile materials can be dyed with disperse dyes from supercritical CO.sub.2 by treating the textile materials with an auxiliary that promotes dye uptake, typically polyethylene glycol.

Process for dyeing cellulosic textile material with disperse dyes

Polyester textile material can be dyed from supercritical CO.sub.2 with special disperse dyes.

Process for dyeing hydrophobic textile material with disperse dyes from

Disperse dyes, which produce dyeings of excellent thermomigration fastness, consisting of a chromophore and a lactam or oxime radical which detaches on heating to leave an isocyanate or isothiocyanate group, which reacts with a suitable group in the environment. The disclosed dyes are described by the formula ##STR1## where F is the radical of a dye which is free of water-solubilizing groups,

Disperse dyes which are convertible into a thermomigration fast form

The dyes according to the invention consist of a chromophore and a radical which, on heating, forms an isocyanate or isothiocyanate group. The latter reacts with a suitable group in the environment. Dyeings of excellent thermomigration fastness are obtained. The disclosed dyes are of the formulae ##STR1## where F is the radical of an azo, anthraquinone or tricyanovinyl dye which is free of water-solubilizing groups,

A novel process for the purification of industrial effluents, wherein the effluents are brought into contact with cationically modified, cellulose-containing materials, the cationic constituent of which is bonded to the cellulose part via the grouping of the general formula

Process for the purification of industrial effluents

Cationically modified, cellulose-containing materials

The invention provides a new process for the manufacture of aromatic compounds which at least once contain a benzene ring of an aromatic carbocyclic ring system bonded by an ethylene double bond in conjugation with a further aromatic ring system, i.e. contain the stilbene skeleton or stilbene analogon as central structural element, as well as certain classes of new compounds of this type. The process is characterized by the reaction of a Schiff base of an aromatic aldehyde with an aromatic carbocyclic six-membered ring compound which contains one to four methyl groups bonded to ring carbon atoms of a benzene ring, which furthermore contains aromatic rings which are exclusively six-membered carbocyclic rings, and wherein those benzene rings whose methyl groups are to be caused to react are free of other substituents which contain atoms wich are replaceable by alkali metal. The reaction is carried out in the presence of (a) a strongly basic alkali compound and (b) an N-dialkyl-acylamide as solvent. The compounds obtainable according to this process show a marked fluorescence emission and therefore are suitable for all purposes where fluorescence properties are used, as for instance optical brighteners, scintillators fluorescence dyes, etc.
