Powdered, highly concentrated and stably dispersible dye formulations which are substantially devoid of dye agglomerates, which contain dyes which are not soluble in water such as disperse dyes or vat dyes, anionactive dispersing agents and (as stabilizing agent) from 2 to 30% by weight based on the dye of a polyethylene oxide having a molecular weight of from 200 to 1000 or a reaction product which has been obtained from a. C.sub.6 to C.sub.20 fatty alcohols; B. alkylphenols of C.sub.4 to C.sub.12 in the alkyl; C. C.sub.14 to C.sub.20 fatty amines; D. castor oil or hydrogenated castor oil; E. C.sub.14 to C.sub.20 fatty acids; or F. natural resin acids with from 2 to 80 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of OH or NH.sub.2 groups; or from alkylenediamines of two to five carbon atoms with from 25 to 120 moles of propylene oxide and ethylene oxide per mole of NH.sub.2 groups. The formulations are stable in storage at 60.degree.C and remain devoid of dye agglomerates. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION 1.
A powdered, highly concentrated and stably dispersible dye formulation which is practically devoid of dye agglomerate and which consists essentially of: A.
at least one water-insoluble dye; B.
at least one anion-active dispersing agent in an amount sufficient to disperse said dye in water; and C.
as a stabilizing agent from 2 to 30% by weight, with reference to said dye, of an oxyalkylation product which is (C.
1) a reaction product of a.
a saturated fatty alcohol or unsaturated fatty alcohol, each of 6 to 20 carbon atoms, or a mixture thereof; b.
an alkylphenol of 4 to 12 carbon atoms in the alkyl; c.
a saturated fatty amine or unsaturated fatty amine, each of 14 to 20 carbon atoms, or a mixture thereof; d.
castor oil or hydrogenated castor oil; e.
a saturated fatty acid or unsaturated fatty acid, each of 14 to 20 carbon atoms, or a mixture thereof; or f.
a natural resin acid, with from 2 to 80 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of hydroxyl or amino groups reactive with ethylene oxide; (C.
2) a reaction product of g.
an alkylenediamine of 2 to 5 carbon atoms with from 25 to 120 moles of propylene oxide and ethylene oxide per mole of amino groups, at least 20 moles of ethylene oxide being used per mole of amino groups; (C.
3) a polyethylene oxide of a molecular weight of from 200 to 1,000; or (C.
4) a mixture of two or more of the oxyalkylation products designated 2.
A dye formulation as claimed in claim 1 which contains a reaction product of a saturated fatty alcohol or unsaturated fatty alcohol or mixture thereof with 6 to 25 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of hydroxyl 3.
A dye formulation as claimed in claim 1 which contains a reaction product of isooctylphenol, nonylphenol, dodecylphenol or a mixture of the same with from 40 to 25 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of hydroxyl 4.
A dye formulation as claimed in claim 1 which contains a reaction product of castor oil or hydrogenated castor oil with from 30 to 70 moles 5.
A dye formulation as claimed in claim 1 which contains a reaction product of ethylenediamine with from 30 to 70 moles of propylene oxide and then with from 30 to 50 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of amino groups
