The basic equations of a simple theoretical model for the sorption equilibria in ionic dyeing systems have been extended to include the "binding" of cations other than hydrogen ion to the acidic groups in the fiber. Computations based on the resultant equations are compared with existing ideas on "site-adsorption mechanisms" of cationic dyeing.
