By the slow stepwise heating up of an aqueous suspension of the crystallographically amorphous dye of the formula ##STR1## which dye is unstable to dyeing, to a temperature of 90.degree.-100.degree. C. with a halting point at 40.degree.-60.degree. C., this dye can be transformed completely into the crystalline .alpha.-modification. The novel dye modification can be easily converted, without increase of viscosity, into thinly liquid formulations which are readily pourable, which form no sediment, and which are excellently suitable for producing printing pastes, for example for printing polyester fabric. |
