There is described a stable concentrated solution of a dye of the disazo class, which solution contains 15 to 30 percent by weight of the dye of the formula ##STR1## in the form of the lithium salt, optionally in admixture with up to 75 percent by weight of the sodium, potassium or ammonium salt, dissolved in 5 to 35 percent by weight of water, 2 to 10 percent by weight of pyrrolidone or of N-alkyl-(C 1 -C 4 )-pyrrolidone and 35 to 50 percent by weight of a diethylene glycol monoalkyl ether; a process for producing this liquid preparation, and its use for dyeing and printing cellulose and regenerated cellulose, particularly however for dyeing paper. |
