New Colors.

Posselt's Textile Journal 7, 1908

As always, the Farbenfabriken of Elberfeld have again this month surpassed others in their new fancy colors submitted. Amongst these are:

DIAZO GERANINE B EXTRA.
It produces very clear pink shades fast to boiling as well as bright dark reds of excellent fastness to washing and cross dyeing in connection with loose cotton, yarns, cops, cheeses and piece goods. It will be found particularly useful for the dyeing of cotton material required fast to washing, say for shirt blouses, tickings and dress goods, furthermore for effects to be fast to cross dyeing.

Azo Acid BLUE 2 G
is another new color, particularly recommended for the dyeing of ladies' dress material as well as for other woolen yarns which are required to be fast to washing or moderate fulling alongside white wool. This dyestuff may be employed in combination with Benzo colors for the dyeing of halfwool. In woolsilk, the wool is dyed a darker shade than the silk. It is also well suited for direct printing on woolen material; the prints on wool as well as on silk are very fast to washing. Another dye is their

QUINOLINE YELLOW N EXTRA AND EXTRA CONC.
Both are dyed in an acid bath according to the ordinary method applied for acid wool colors, and they can be employed on wool for the same purposes as the older Quinoline Yellow they are useful for toning fashion shades and in combination with the Brilliant Acid Blue A and V or Brilliant Acid Green 6 B of the Elberfeld, produce very bright yellowish green shades. Cotton effects are not stained. The new Quinoline Yellows are furthermore especially adapted for the dyeing of weighted and unweighted silk.
