A process is provided for dyeing articles of unmodified polyolefin polymer with an aqueous dispersion of a fatty-acid-soluble, solvent dye, a fatty acid and an amine. After application of the dispersion to the article, the amine is volatilized from the applied dispersion. The process is particularly useful in providing novel, dyed, nonwoven fabrics made from polyethylene film fibrils. |
