Summary Report on Dyestuffs Used for Simultaneous Dyeing and Impregnating of Protective Clothing

Abstract

This report describes the history of the development of suitable dyestuffs for use in simultaneous dyeing and impregnation of protective clothing. Dyes had to be provided for both the solvent and aqueous systems of impregnation. Anthraquinone vat dyes blended with an equal weight of dispersing agents have been used as pigments in the aqueous impregnation process, Vat colors have been used since they proved to be resistant to the impregnate CC-2. It has been found possible to use much cheaper pigments for aqueous impregnations such as phthalocyanine dyes, carbon black, and crude forms of vat colors.
