A textile material comprises a plurality of yarns, the yarns containing an intimate blend of dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers and aramid fibers. The dyed polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprising a disperse dye that is distributed substantially evenly across the cross-sectional area of the fibers. A method for dyeing textile materials containing polyphenylene sulfide fibers comprises the steps of (a) providing a plurality of polyphenylene sulfide fibers and aramid fibers; (b) spinning the blend of fibers into a plurality of yarns; (c) forming the yarns into a textile material; (d) subjecting the textile material to a polyphenylene sulfide dyeing process.

The present invention relates to azo dyes of formula
