Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure Acid esters of propylene oxide poly-adducts and their salts, which are obtained by an addition reaction of (a) propylene oxide with (b) a polyfunctional amine, which contains 2 to 9 carbon atoms and at least a second reactive amino group or at least one hydroxyl group, and esterification of the poly-adduct with (c) an oxy-acid which is at least dibasic or with a functional derivative of this acid and, if appropriate, by conversion of the resulting acid ester into a salt.
These acid esters of propylene oxide poly-adducts are particularly effective as dyeing auxiliaries, especially as dispersing and levelling agents for dyeing synthetic fibres and primarily for dyeing linear polyester fibres.

Description

9~

The present invention relates -to new acid esters of propylene oxide poly-adducts, a process for their manufacture and their use as dyeing auxiliaries when dyeing synthetic fibres or materials containing such ~ibres with dyestuffs which are insoluble or sparingly soluble in water.
When textile materials are dyed with dyestuffs which are insoluble or sparingly soluble in water, for example by the so-ca-lled high-temperature circulation dyeing method, dispersion difficulties, which are due to inadequate fine dis-tribution of the dyestuffs in the dye liquors, frequently arise~ As a result, dyeings which are uneven and not fast,above all not fast to rubbing, are obtained. Defects o~ this type are noticeable, inter alia, when synthetic fibres, especially the linear polyester fibres, are dyed with disperse dyestu~fs.
As is known, certain auxiliaries, such as, for example, condensation products obtained from naphthalenesulphonic acid and formaldehyde or their alkali metal salts,ox~thylated ~atty alcohols or ligninsulphonates, can be added to the dye bathsin order to stabilise the dispersions of dyestuffs which are sparingly soluble in water.
However, these products possess either only dispersing properties or only levelling proper-ties. Therefore, the two effects can be achieved simultaneously only by using mix-tures of different auxiliaries. Due to their high tendency to foaming, many dispersing agents àlso impair the dispersion and dyeing process.

~9 New dyeing auxiliaries have now been ~ound which enable level dyeings which are fast to rubbing to be obtained when materials containing synthetic fibres are dyed with dye-stu~fs which are sparingly soluble to insoluble in water.
The new auxiliaries are acid esters o~ propylene oxide poly-adducts and their salts,which have been manufactured by an addition reaction oP (a) propylene oxide with (b) a poly-functional amine, which contains 2 to 9 carbon atoms and at least a second reactive amino group or at least one hydroxyl group, a~d esterification o~ the poly adduct with (c) an oxy-acid which is at least dibasic or with a functional derivative of this acid and,i~ apFn~x~a~ by conversion o~ the resulting acid ester into a salt.
The new products can be present as ~ree acids or as salts, ~or example alkali metal salts or ammonium salts.
Alkali metal salts which may be mentioned are, in particular, the sodium and potassium salts,and ammonium salts which may be mentioned are the ammonium, trimethylammonium, monoethanol-ammonium, diethanolammonium and triethanolammonium salts. ~`
.
The poly-adducts are pre~erably manufactured as ammonium sal-ts.
The new acid esters are derived from poly-adducts which are obtained from the components (a) and (b) and which approp-riately have an average molecular weight of 1,000 to 6,000, preferably 3,000 to 5,0000 Poly-adducts o~ this type can be manufactured, ~or example, by an addition reaction of about 15 to 100 mols, preferably about 50 to 85 mols, of propylene ox~de (a) with one mol o~ the component (b)~ Poly-adducts .

~699:~
which have an average molecular weight o~ 2,000 to 4,000 are also preferred.
The new acid esters o~ propylene oxide poly-adducts are manufactured by subjecting (a) propylene oxide to an addition reaction with (b) a polyfunctional amine which con-tains 2 to 9 carbon atoms and at least a second reactive amino group or at least one hydroxyl gro~p and converting the addition product into the acid ester using (c) an oxy-acid which is at least dibasic, or a functional derivative of this acid, and op-tionally converting the resulting acid ester into the abovementioned salts.
Possible amines, which, as starting materials, can be reacted with propyiene oxide, are, in principle, poly~unctional amines which contain either at least two reactive amino groups or at le~st one reactive amino group and one hydroxyl group, it being possible ~or the reactive amino groupsto be primary and/or secondary. Amines which have proved suitable are, above all, alkylene polyamines which contain 2 to 6 carbon atoms and 2 to 4 amino groups~ Polyfunctional alkyleneamines which can be used are, for example, ethylenediamine, propylene-diamine, butylenediamine, pentylenediamine, hexamethylene-diamine, diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, 1,2-propylenediamine, dipropylenetriamine, tripropylenete~ramine and dibutylenetriamine. Preferred polyamines are alkylene-diamines with 2 or 3 carbon atoms, such as propylenediamine and especially ethylenediamine.

leàst one hydroxyalkyl group, for example hydroxyalkylamines, such as ~-hydroxyethylamine, ~- or ~-hydroxypropylamine or ~,r-dihydroxypropylamine; bis-hydroxyalkylamines, such as bis~ hydroxyethylamine~, bis-~-hydroxypropylamine or bis-(a-methyl-~-hydroxyethyl)-amine; tris-hydroxyalkylamines9 such as tris-(~-hydroxyethyl)-amine and N-alkyl-N-hydroxy-alkylamines, such as N-methyl- or N-ethyl-N-~-hydroxypropyl-amine, also prove to be particularly valuable. N-Met~yl-N-~-ethanolamine and, especially, tris-~-ethanolamine and ~-ethanolamine are preferred.
Both the propylene oxide addition reaction and the esterification can be carried out according to known methods.
Polybasic oxy-acids which can be used to form the new acid esters are sulphonated organic, preferably aliphatic, mono- or di-carboxylic acids with 3 to 6 carbon atoms, such as, for example, sulphosuccinic acid, or, in particular, polybasic inorganic oxy-acids, such as sulphuric acid. In place of the acids it is also possible to use their functional deriva-tives, such as acid anhydrides, acid halides, acid esters or acid amides. Chlorosulphonic acid and, especially, sulphamic àcid may be mentioned as examples of ~hese functional deriva-tives.
As a rule, the esterification according to the invention is carried out by simply mixing the reactants whilst warming, appropriately to a temperature between 50 and 100C. The ~ree acids which are first formed can then be converted into the corresponding alkali metal or ammonium salts. Conversion ~6~9~C~

into the salts is carried out in the customary manner by adding bases, such as, for example, ammonia, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine or alkali metal hydroxides, for example sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the acid sulphuric acid esters are manufactured direct in the form of their ammonium salts by warming the propylene oxide addition products with sulphamic acid, appropria-tely in the.presence of urea.
A typical representative of the new products is the ammonium salt of the sulphuric acid ester of an addition i product which has been obtained from ethylenediamine and propylene oxide and which appropriately has an average mole-cular weight of 3,000 to 4,000, preferably 3j,600.
A further representative which contains sulpho groups is the sulphosuccinic acid half-ester o~ a poly-adduct obtained by an addition reaction of propylene oxide and ethylenediamine, the poly~adduct advantageously having an average molecular weight o~ 3,000 to 4,000, preferably 3,600.
With the aid of the anionic poly-adducts described above it is now possible to eliminate the disadvantages which were described initially and which arise when organic syn-thetic ~ibres, especially polyes-ter fibres, are dyed with disperse dyestuffs without the addition of an auxiliary or with the additives used hitherto. The technical advance depends, above all, on the excellent dispersion-stabilising action of the poly-adducts on the dyestuff, so that neither an aggrega-tion nor a precipitation of the dyestuff takes place during the . ,...... ,,. :.... :. :.. , ... :. . ... :, .

, 69~L9 entire dyeing process.
A further advantage of these compounds, which are employed as levelling and dispersing agents, lies in the low tendency to foaming. Accordingly, there is no danger of froth stains forming on the dyeings and a more rapid pene-tration of the goods and an increase in the rate of flow in the dyeing machines are thus ensured.
The new acid esters of propylene oxide poly-adducts are used as dyeing auxiliaries, especially as dispersing and levelling agents, for dyeing synthetic ~ibres or materials containing such fibres and especially for dyeing linear poly-esters.
The amounts in which the acid esters of the poly-propylene oxide adducts, or their salts, are added to the dye ba-thsvary between 0.1 and 5 g, preferably 0.5 to 2 g, per litre of the aqueous dye liquor.
It is ~requently desirable to incorporate an anti-foaming agent into the aqueous solution o~ the acid ester in order to improve the properties of the dye bath,to which the dispersing agent is added, and sometimes also to increase the migration of the dyestu~f. A satisfactory type of anti-foaming agent is a silicone emulsion, for example a 5 to l~/o strength aqueous silicone emulsion, which can also be employed in combination with higher alcohols with 4 to 22 carbon atoms, .-~
especially with 2-ethyl hexanol. However, the most suitable anti-foaming agents are water-insoluble alkylene oxide adducts of higher alcohols, for example the adduct of 1 mol of " , , ~ .

~ [)6i99~) e-thylene oxide with 1 mol of stearyl alcohol, and also esters of aliphatic dicarboxylic acids and the higher alcohols mentioned, or the higher alcohols on their own, for example n-butyl alcohol or 2-ethylhexanol.
Adipic acid di-2~ethyl-hexyl ester and also poly-siloxanes, such as, for example, methylpolysiloxane, have proved very particularly suitable.
The amount in which the anti-foaming agent is employed can be as low as, for example, 0~5% by weight but is advan-tageously at least 10% by weight and preferably 15 to 60% by weight, based on the weight of the acid ester or its salt.
Water-miscible alcohols can also be added to the solution oP the new acid ester. Alcohols which are suitable for this purpose are, in par-ticular, lower aliphatic alcohols, such as alkanols, for example ethyl alcohol, n- and iso-propyl alcohol and tert.-butyl alcohol, alkylene glycols, for example ethylene glycol and 295-hexanedioi and their lower monoalkyl ethers, as well as mixtures thereof.
Dyestuffs which are insoluble or sparingly soluble in water are to be understood as vat dyestuffs, organic pigments and, above all, disperse dyestuffs which have an affinity for the fibre, that is to say -those which are absorbed on textile synthe-tic fibre materials.
The dyestuffs can belong to ~ery diverse categories, for example acridone dyestuffs, nitro dyestuffs, methine and polymethine dyestuffs, styryl and azos-tyryl dyestuffs, xanthene dyestuffs, oxazine dyestuffs, aminonaphtho~ulnone , ;''; :; ':' :'.; . , .' :,., ::. :: ':,' ~ .

dyestuffs 9 coumarin dyestuffs and, in particular, anthraquin-one dyestuffs and azo dyestuffs, such as monoazo dyestuffs and disazo dyestu~fs.
Mixtures of such dyestuffs can also be employed.
The new anionic poly-adduc-ts can also be employed when whitening undyed textile materials with optical brighteners which are sparingly soluble in water.
The latter can belong to any desired categories of brightener. In particular they are stilbene compouinds, coumarins~ benzocoumarins, pyrazines; pyrazolines, oxazines, triazolyl, benzoxazolyl, benzofurane or benzimidazolyl com-pounds and naphthalic acid imides~
The amount of dyestuffs added to the liquor depends on the desired depth of colour; in general~ amounts of 0.01 to 10 per cent by weight, based on the fibre material employed, have proved suitable.
Examples which may be mentioned of fibre materials which can be dyed in the presence of the new adducts are cellulose ester fibres, such as cellulose 2~-acetate fibres and cellulose triacetate fibres, synthetic polyamide fibres, for example those made from ~-caprolactam, from adipic acid and hexamethylenediamine and from ~-aminoundecanoic acid, polyurethane fibres, polyolefine fibres~ for example poly- ~
propylene fibres, polyacrylonitrile fibres, including modified acrylic fibres~ and, above all9 linear polyester fibres.
Linear polyester fibres are to be understood as synthetic fibres which are obtained by a condensation reaction of _ g _ ',. ~ ' ~ ;. :, . .................... ., ,. :........... .

terephthalic acid with ethylene glycol or of isophthalic acid or terephthalic acid with 1,4-bis-(hydroxymethyl)-cyclohexane, and also copolymers of terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid and ethylene glycol. The fibre materials can also be used as mixed fabrics with one another or with other fibres, ~or example mixtures of polyacrylonitrile/polyester, polyamideJ
polyester, polyester/viscose and polyester/wool~
The fibre material can be in very di~erse stages of processing, for example in the form of flock, piece goods, such as woven fabrics and knitted fabrics, bundles of yarn or wound packages or as non-woven fabrics, a textile floor covering or a tufted carpet.
The dyeings are advantageously carried out from an a~ueous li~uor by the exhaustion process. Linear polyester ~ibres are preferably dyed by the so-called high-temperature process in closed pressure-resistant machines at tempera-tures of above 100C, preferably between 110 and 140C, under pressure.
Examples of suitable closed vessels are circula-ting liquor machines, such as cheese machines or beam dyeing machines, winches, jet dyeing machines or rotary-type dyeing machines, paddles or jiggers. The liquor ratio can accordingly be chosen within a wide range, for example 1:1 to 1:100, preferably 1:10 to 1:50~ The linear polyester fibres can also be dyed at temperatures beiow 100C, ~or examplè in the temperature range from 75 to 98C, in ~he presence of the customary carriers, for example phenylphenols, polychloro-, , . ~, .. , , ' ": : ', , , ' ' ; ' : , .,. . .

benzenes, xylenes, toluenes, naphthalenes or diphenyl.Cellulose 2~-acetate fibres are preferably dyed at tempera-tures of 80-85C, whilst cellulose triacetate fibres are advantageously dyed at the boiling point (98C) of the aqueous bath.
The use of carriers is superfluous when dyeing cellu-lose 2~-acetate or polyamide fibres.
When preparing the dye liquors it is appropriate to start from aqueous solutions of the acid ester or its salt a~d to add suitable auxiliaries, such as, for example, anti- -~oaming agents and lower alcohols, to these. The liquors can contain mineral acids, such as, for example, sulphuric acid or phosphoric acid, organic acids, appropria-tely lower aliphatic carboxylic acids, such as formic acid, acetic acid or oxalic acid, and/or salts, such as ammonium acetate, ammonium sulphate or sodium acetate. The acids serve, above all, to adjust the pH value of the liquors which can be used according to the invention; as a rule, the pH value is 4 to 8 and pre~erably 4.5 to 5.5.
The textile material is introduced into the liquor, which can have a temperature o~ 40 to 70C, and the material -is treated for 5 to 15 minu-tes at this tempera-ture. The dye-stuff and, where appropriate, the carrier are then added and the temperature of the liquor is raised in order to dye in the indicated temperature range for 50 to 100 minutes.
The dyed material is then rinsed, and dried, in the customary manner. A reductive after-treatment is normally ',.. '.'. ', .', ' ' ' ' ' .:-: . ~.

not necessary.
It is important that a fine dispersion of the dyestuff is not only inltially present but that the degree of dispersion is also maintained during the entire dyeing process. As is known, certain disperse dyestuffs tend, above all under the conditions of high-temperature dyeing, to convert into a less fine form. The result of this is that the dyestu~f settles on the surface of the material to be dyed. Such agglomera-tions and deposits of dyestuff can be avoided particularly well by means of the anionic poly-adducts according to the invention.
The synthetic fibre material can also be dyed con-tinuously, that is to say by impregnating with an aqueous formulation which contains a disperse dyestuff, an anionic poly-adduct according to the invention and, optionally, a thickener and an acid and squeezing off to the desired content of impregnating liquor of 60 to 120% of the weight of fibre and subsequently subjecting to a heat treatment, such as, for example, steaming at temperatures of 98 to 105C with neutral saturated steam or thermofixing at 180 to 210C.
Uniform and deep dyeings~ which additionally are distinguished by good fastness to rubbing and good dye yields, are obtained on syn-thetic organic fibre material, especially on linear polyester fibres, by the dyeing process according to the invention.
