Abstract
The present invention provides a dye-fixing agent, obtainable by reacting in a first reaction step, either a homopolymer of diallylamine or N-methyl-diallylamine or a copolymer of diallylamine and N-methyl-diallylamine, with an epihalohydrin, the reaction optionally taking place in the presence of an aliphatic amine or polyamine, or reacting the homopolymer or copolymer with a product obtainable by a reaction of epihalohydrin with an aliphatic amine or polyamine, optionally followed by partial quaternization of the reaction product of the first reaction step, characterized in that the end product possesses at least 10 mol % of tertiary amino groups of the following formula (I), based on the total number of amino groups ##STR1## wherein X=halogen, with the provisos that when the homopolymer is an N-methyl-diallylamine, the presence of an aliphatic amine or a polyamine is obligatory in the reaction with the epihalohydrin and when the homopolymer is a homopolymer of diallylamine, partial quaternisation of the reaction product of the first reaction step is obligatory.
