Abstract
A novel aqueous dye-accelerant composition that allows for the effective and rapid reaction of a dye with the fibers of a substrate such that the dye becomes evenly attached to the substrate within seconds is provided. The dye-accelerant composition generally comprises: an organic solvent; at least one dispersing agent; a chelating agent; and a vehicle. In another embodiment, a dyeing process utilizing the dye-accelerant composition, which includes five primary treatment processes: a pre-treatment process, a bleaching process, a neutralize and dye accelerant process, a dyeing process, and a dye stop or fixing process is provided
