Alkali-resistant foam s~lppressant which is free from silicone oil The present invention relates to an alkali-resistant foam suppressant which is free from silicone oil, a process for its preparation and its use.
Foam suppressants containing silicone oil such as are described, for example, in U.S.
Patent Specification 4,071,468 have an inadequate action in alkaline aqueous systerns and often lead to the formation of stains. Foam suppressants which contain no silicone oil have also been disclosed in European Patent B 35,702. However, these foam suppressants have an inadequate storage stability and give use liquors of low stability.
Foam suppressants which do not have these disadvantages have now been found.
The present invention thus relates to an alkali-resistant foam suppressant which is free from silicone oil and contains (a) a homopolymer of an aliphatic C2-C12alkyl ester of (meth)-acrylic acid or a copolymer of this alkyl ester with a di-C2-CI2alkyl ester of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, (b,) an anionic or nonionic emulsifier and (c) an apolar solvent.
Possible components (a) are both copolymers and, in particular, also homopolymers.
Preferred monomers of these copolymers are ethyl, n-butyl or 2-etllyl-n-hexylacrylclte or methacrylate on the one hand and maleic or fumaric acid esters On the other lland, the acrylates being preferred over the meth.lcryllltes. In copolymers of n-butylacrylate and di-C2-C~alkyl maleates, the weight ratio is preferably 1:1. Homopolymers of ethyl, n-butyl and 2-ethyl-n-hexyl acrylates are therefore of prirne interest. These co- and homopolymers which are known per se are prepared by methods which are likewise known per se. To prepare the homopolymers, the monomers of the type mentioned are polymerized in the presence of a solvent. Examples of solvents which may be mentioned are di-, tetra- or decahydronaphthaline, a benzene which is substituted by methyl or ethyl, a cycloallcanol having 4 to 6 carbon atoms, a straight-chain or branched alkanol having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, an alkylen oxide adduct of glycerol or pentaerythritol or a C2-C8alkyl ester of a straight-chain or branched carboxylic or hydroxy carboxylic acid, such as of lac~ic and 2-ethylhexanoic acid. The monomers are preferably polymerized in the presence of a polymerization catalyst, such as azobisisobutyronitrile or peroxides, such as benzoyl peroxide, in general at elevated temperatures of, for example 50 to 100, in particular 70 to 90C, and in an inert atmosphere, that is to say using an inert gas, such as nitrogen. The amounts of solvent are preferably in general employed so that a 30 to 60, preferably 40 to 50 percent strength by weight solution of component (a) is obtained, the monomers being dissolved in the solvent before the polymerization and the resulting solution of the homopolymer being further diluted if necessary, to give the content of homopolymer mentioned, using the solvent or a commercially available hydrocarbon mixture of paraffins, if appropriate naphthenes and aromatics. To prepare the copolymers, on the other hand, the monomers of the type mentioned are polymerized in the absence of a solvent. The resulting copolymers are then mixed with the abovementioned solvents or commercially available hydrocarbon mixtures until the stated percentage content is obtained. The resulting solution can then be used for the preparation of a foam suppressant according to the invention.
The abovementioned esters are prepared in a manner which is known per se by reaction of the (meth)acrylic acid or dicarboxylic acid, such as maleic or fumaric acid, or the anhydride thereof, with an alkanol having 2 to 12 C atoms, such as ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol and isomers thereof, amyl alcohol and isomers thereof, n-hexyl alcohol, n-octyl alcohol, capryl alcohol, 2-ethylhexanol, 2-butylhexanol, trimethylhexanol, n-decyl alcohol and lauryl alcohol.
The reaction products of acrylic acid and n-butyl alcohol and of maleic acid or the anhydride thereof with 2-ethyl-hexanol are preferred.
The commercially available hydrocarbon mixtures are, in particular, aliphatic straight-chain or branched hydrocarbons which are mixed, if appropriate with naphthenes and aromatics. Such mixtures have a high boiling range of about 180 to about 500C, an aniline point of about 70 to about 120C and a kinematic viscosity at 20C of about 1 to about 100 mm2/s.

The esterification is as a rule carried out by simply mixing the reaction partners while heating, advantageously at a temperature between 50 and lOO"C. The fiee acids initially formed can then be converted into the corresponding alkali metal salts or ammonium salts.
They are converted into the salts in the customary manner by addition of bases, for example ammonia, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine or alkali metal hydroxides, for example sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. ~ccording to a particularly preferred embodiment, acid sulfuric acid esters are prepared directly in the form of their ammonium salts by heating the styrene oxide addition products with sulfamic acid, advantageously in the presence of urea.

Application examples:
Example 30: 600 g of a mixture of 61 % of the sodium salt of pentadecane-1-sulfonic acid, 8.1 % of the addition product of 4 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of a Cg-Cllalkanol, 5 % of methyldipropylene glycol, 10 % of partial oligomers of 1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid, 5 % of sorbitol and 11 % of an aqueous 50 %
potassium hydroxide solution are dissolved in 80 litres of water, and 10 litres of sodium hydroxide solution (30 %) are added. To suppress foaming, 100 g of the agent prepared according to ~xample 26 are added to the mixture and the mixture is made up to 100 litres with water.
A raw cotton fabric of 220 g/m2 is impregnated with the liquor thus prepared, squeezed off to liquor pick-up of 100 % and steamed with saturated steam at 101C for 10 minutes. It is then rinsed hot and cold and dried and the CIBA-GEIGY whiteness is determined, which has the rating 10 (that of the raw untreated fabric is -73). The boiling-out liquor is now investigated for foaming properties in accordance with DIN 53902 and a foam height of 20 ml is found. In an identical liquor but without the agent according to the invention, the foam height is 300 ml.
If the agent according to Example 24 is used instead of the agent according to Example ~6, the foam height is 15 ml.
Example 31: 100 kg of cotton tricot arc wetted in 60() litres of deionized water at 40C on a short liquor jet. 36 kg of sodium chloride, 5 kg of the reactive dyestuff of the formula 2~
N ~N
SO~H OH HN--C ~ ~C--NH2 ~ N--N ~ SO3H
0.6 kg of the adduct of 9 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of p-nonylphenol and 0.6 kg of the foam suppressant according to Example 24 are then introduced into the liquor. The substrate is dyed on the short liquor jet at 40C for 45 minutes. 0.6 kg of calcined sodium carbonate is then added, and 1.2 kg of an aqueous 30 % sodium hydroxide solution are added after a further 5 minutes. The tricot is then dyed for a further 40 minutes and subsequently rinsed and re-washed. A fast level red dyeing of the tricot results. During the dyeing process, no interference in the run of the goods occurs. No foarning is to be found.
If dyeing is carried out in the same manner but without addition of the agent according to Example 24, severe foaming and in some cases interference in the run of the goods occurs.
E ample 32: 100 parts of knitted goods of texturized polyester fibre is introduced in an incompletely flooded jet dyeing machine into 1,500 parts of hot water at 60C which contains 2 parts of ammonium sulfate and a finely dispersed dyestuff mixture of the following composition:
2.~ parts of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse Yellow 54, C.I. 47020, 2.6 parts of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse Red 151, C.I. 26130, 0.8 part of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse 131ue 56, C.I. 63285, 2.0 parts of the ammonium salt of the acid sulfuric acid ester of an adduct of glycerol and propylene oxide having a molecular weight of 4,200 and 1.5 parts of the foam suppressant according to Example 26, and ;n which the pH has been adjusted to S with formic acid.
The temperature of the liquor is then increased to 130C in the course of 30 minutes and dyeing is carried out at this temperature for a further 60 minutes. During this period, it can be seen through the inspection window of the dyeing machine that the liquor issuing from the jets contains no foam at all. The liquor is then cooled to 70C. The substrate is subjected to reductive cleaning, rinsing and drying in the customary manner.
æ~ 400 A level brown dyeing with good penetration of the dye (diffusion~ and good fastness properties is thus obtained.
Similarly good effects are also obtained if the foam suppressant according to Example 24 is employed instead of the foam suppressant according to Example 26.

Alkali-resistant foam s~lppressant which is free from silicone oil The present invention relates to an alkali-resistant foam suppressant which is free from silicone oil, a process for its preparation and its use.
Foam suppressants containing silicone oil such as are described, for example, in U.S.
Patent Specification 4,071,468 have an inadequate action in alkaline aqueous systerns and often lead to the formation of stains. Foam suppressants which contain no silicone oil have also been disclosed in European Patent B 35,702. However, these foam suppressants have an inadequate storage stability and give use liquors of low stability.
Foam suppressants which do not have these disadvantages have now been found.
The present invention thus relates to an alkali-resistant foam suppressant which is free from silicone oil and contains (a) a homopolymer of an aliphatic C2-C12alkyl ester of (meth)-acrylic acid or a copolymer of this alkyl ester with a di-C2-CI2alkyl ester of an ethylenically unsaturated dicarboxylic acid, (b,) an anionic or nonionic emulsifier and (c) an apolar solvent.
Possible components (a) are both copolymers and, in particular, also homopolymers.
Preferred monomers of these copolymers are ethyl, n-butyl or 2-etllyl-n-hexylacrylclte or methacrylate on the one hand and maleic or fumaric acid esters On the other lland, the acrylates being preferred over the meth.lcryllltes. In copolymers of n-butylacrylate and di-C2-C~alkyl maleates, the weight ratio is preferably 1:1. Homopolymers of ethyl, n-butyl and 2-ethyl-n-hexyl acrylates are therefore of prirne interest. These co- and homopolymers which are known per se are prepared by methods which are likewise known per se. To prepare the homopolymers, the monomers of the type mentioned are polymerized in the presence of a solvent. Examples of solvents which may be mentioned are di-, tetra- or decahydronaphthaline, a benzene which is substituted by methyl or ethyl, a cycloallcanol having 4 to 6 carbon atoms, a straight-chain or branched alkanol having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, an alkylen oxide adduct of glycerol or pentaerythritol or a C2-C8alkyl ester of a straight-chain or branched carboxylic or hydroxy carboxylic acid, such as of lac~ic and 2-ethylhexanoic acid. The monomers are preferably polymerized in the presence of a polymerization catalyst, such as azobisisobutyronitrile or peroxides, such as benzoyl peroxide, in general at elevated temperatures of, for example 50 to 100, in particular 70 to 90C, and in an inert atmosphere, that is to say using an inert gas, such as nitrogen. The amounts of solvent are preferably in general employed so that a 30 to 60, preferably 40 to 50 percent strength by weight solution of component (a) is obtained, the monomers being dissolved in the solvent before the polymerization and the resulting solution of the homopolymer being further diluted if necessary, to give the content of homopolymer mentioned, using the solvent or a commercially available hydrocarbon mixture of paraffins, if appropriate naphthenes and aromatics. To prepare the copolymers, on the other hand, the monomers of the type mentioned are polymerized in the absence of a solvent. The resulting copolymers are then mixed with the abovementioned solvents or commercially available hydrocarbon mixtures until the stated percentage content is obtained. The resulting solution can then be used for the preparation of a foam suppressant according to the invention.
The abovementioned esters are prepared in a manner which is known per se by reaction of the (meth)acrylic acid or dicarboxylic acid, such as maleic or fumaric acid, or the anhydride thereof, with an alkanol having 2 to 12 C atoms, such as ethanol, propanol, isopropanol, butanol and isomers thereof, amyl alcohol and isomers thereof, n-hexyl alcohol, n-octyl alcohol, capryl alcohol, 2-ethylhexanol, 2-butylhexanol, trimethylhexanol, n-decyl alcohol and lauryl alcohol.
The reaction products of acrylic acid and n-butyl alcohol and of maleic acid or the anhydride thereof with 2-ethyl-hexanol are preferred.
The commercially available hydrocarbon mixtures are, in particular, aliphatic straight-chain or branched hydrocarbons which are mixed, if appropriate with naphthenes and aromatics. Such mixtures have a high boiling range of about 180 to about 500C, an aniline point of about 70 to about 120C and a kinematic viscosity at 20C of about 1 to about 100 mm2/s. Examples which rnay be mentioned of purely aliphatic hydrocarbon mixtures are straight-chain hydrocarbons having a boiling range from 170 to 250C, an aniline point of 80 to 85C and a kinematic viscosity at 25C of 1.6 to 2 mm2/s, and which are obtainable as SHELLSOL TD, T or K~ (brand name, SHELL). Examples which may bc mentioned of p~lrely alipllatic hydrocarboll mixtures having branched chains are mixtures having a boiling range of 110 to 260C, an aniline point of 75 to 9()C and a kinematic viscosity at 25C of 20 to 300 mm2/s, which are obtainable as ISOPAR ~, G, H, K, L or M~) (brand name ESSO). Hydrocarbon mixtures which also contain naphthenes and aromatics in addition to aliphatics, for example those of 45 to 70 percent by weight of paraffins,25 to 45 percent by weight of naphthenes and 5 to 20, in particular 7 io 9 percent by weight of aromatics, are also possible.
Such mixtures as a rule have a boiling range from 340 to 470C, a kinematic viscosity at 20C of 20 to l00 mm2/s, a pour point of -~ to -50C and an aniline point of 75 to l 10C.
A readily accessible commercially available hydrocarbon mixture which, for example, is possible is, for example, PROCESSOIL ES 320~ (brand name, ESSO).
If such mixtures are employed fo-r the prepa}ation of component (a), it is necessary to add the abovementioned solvents.
Possible components (b) are addition products of styrene oxide on a C6-C22fatty alcohol alkoxilate, and C6-C22fatty acid amides. The addition products Gan be in the form of nonionic non-esterified products or anionic esterified products. Addition products of 2 to 6 mole of ethylene oxide or propylene oxide onto 1 mole of the said styrene oxide addition products may also be mentioned as component (b).
The addition products used as component (b) are novel compounds per se, which can be obtained by addition of styrene oxide onto polyalkylene glycol ethers of the formula ( 1 ) R-O-(CH-CH-O)X-H
Rl R2 in which R is an aliphatic radical, of Rl and R2 one is hydrogen and the other is -C~I3, or Rl and R2 are both hydrogen, and x is a number from 1 to l00 preferably 4 to 80.
The addition products can also be in the form of their acid esters and salts thereof.
A preferred possible aliphatic radical R is the hydrocarbon radical of an unsaturated or saturated aliphatic mono alcohol having 4 to 22 C atoms. This radical can be straight-chain or branched and preferably has 8 to 22 C atoms.
~V~4~V
The aliphalic saturated mono alcohols are, for example, synthetic and naturally occurring alcohols, such as n-butyl, lauryl, myristyl, cetyl, stearyl, arachidyl or behenyl alcohol, and synthetic alcohols, such as oxo alcohols, for example 2-methylpentanol~ 2-ethylhexanol, 2-propylheptanol, 2-octyldodecanol, 1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutanol, isononyl alcohol, trimethylhexanol, trimethylnonyl alcohol, hexadecyl alcohol or the Alfols(~) (linear primary alcohols) having 8 to 18 C atoms. Representatives of these Alfols are, for example, Alfol(~) 810, Alfol(~ 1012, Alfol(~) 1214 or Alfol~ 1618.
Examples of unsaturated aliphatic mono alcohols are dodecenyl alcohol, hexadecenyl alcohol or oleyl alcohol.
The alcohol radicals can be present individually or in the form of mixtures of two or more components, for example mixtures of alkyl and/or alkenyl groups which are derived from soya fatty acids, palm-kernel fatty acids or tallow oils.
(CHRI-OEIR2-O)x- chains are preferably of the ethylene glycol, propylene ethylene glycol or ethylene propylene glycol type; the first is particularly preferred.
x is preferably 4 to 40.
The styrene oxide addition products are prepared by first etherifying the aliphatic mono alcohol with 1 to 100 mole of alkylene oxide (ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide), and then adding 1 mole of styrene oxide onto the resulting polyalkylene glycol ether. If desired, 2 to 6 mole of ethylene oxide or propylene oxide can be added onto these addition products.
Specific examples which may be mentioned of the polyalkylene glycol ethers which are of the formula (1) and are required for styrene oxide addition are - tlle addition product of 2.5 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of Cg-Clloxo alcohol - the addition product of 4 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of C9-CIloxo alcohol - the addition product of 5 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of Cg-Clloxo alcohol - the addition product of 35 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of stearyl alcohol- the addition product of 36 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of stearyl alcohol- the addition product of 18 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of Cl2-CI8fatty alcohol mixture (~etalol 50-55) 4~

The acid esters can be present in the fornl of mono- or diesters or half-esters and as free acids or, preferably, as salts, for example alkali metal salts or ammonium salts, depending on the acid radical. Alkali metal salts which may be mentioned in particular are the sodium, potassium or lithium salts, and ammonium salts which may be mentioned are the ammonium, dimethylammonium, trimethylammonium, monoethanolammonium, diethanolammonium and triethanolammonium salts. The acid esters are preferably prepared as ammonium salts.
The aeid esters are prepared by reacting the styrene oxide addition product according to the invention with an at least dibasic oxygen acid and converting the acid ester obtained into the abovement;oned salts.
For the polybasic oxygen acids which can be used for the formation of the acid esters are non-sulfonated or sulfonated organic, preferably aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having 3 to 6 carbon atoms, for example maleic acid, malonic acid, suceinic aeid or sulfosuccinic acid, or polybasic inorganie oxygen aeids, for example sulfuric acid or orthophosphoric acid.
Instead of the acids, functional derivatives thereof, such as acid anhydrides, acid halides, acid esters or acid imides, can be used. Examples which may be mentioned of these 2~ 4~3 functional derivatives are maleic anhydride, chlorosulfonic acid and sulfamic acid.
The esterification is as a rule carried out by simply mixing the reaction partners while heating, advantageously at a temperature between 50 and lOO"C. The fiee acids initially formed can then be converted into the corresponding alkali metal salts or ammonium salts.
They are converted into the salts in the customary manner by addition of bases, for example ammonia, monoethanolamine, triethanolamine or alkali metal hydroxides, for example sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide. ~ccording to a particularly preferred embodiment, acid sulfuric acid esters are prepared directly in the form of their ammonium salts by heating the styrene oxide addition products with sulfamic acid, advantageously in the presence of urea.
Styrene oxide addition products which are important in practice are those of the forrnula (2) R~-O~CH2CH20~CH-C~I-OH
Yl Y2 in which Rl is alkyl or alkenyl having in each case 8 to 22 carbon atoms, of Yl and Y2 one is phenyl and the other is hydrogen and xl is 4 to 80.
Preferred acid esters prepared using an inorganic or organic acid are those of the formula (3) Rl-(CH2CH2O~CH- ICH-O-X

in which Rl, Yl, Y2 and xl are as defined above, of Zl and Z2 one is methyl and the other is hydrogen, X is the maleic acid, sulfosuccinic acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid radical and the sum of nl ~ n2 is 4 to 30, preferably 6 to 18.
Par~icularly preferred acid esters of the formulae (3) and (4) contain either a maleic acid ester group or a sulfuric acid ester group, which is preferably in the form of its alkali metal g4~
salts or ammonium salts.
Possible components (b) are also Cl-C4alkyl and in particular C2-C12alkanolamides of fatty acids having 6 to 22 C atoms. Fatty acid dialkanolamides having 8 to 22 C atoms in the fatty acid radical and 2 to 12 carbon atoms in the alkanol radical are preferred. These are, for example, fatty acid-alkanolamine reaction products which are prepared from fatty acids having 8 to 22, preferably 8 to 18, carbon atoms and alkanolamines having preferably 2 to 6 carbon atoms, such as ethanolamine, diethanolamine, isopropanolamine or di-isopropanolamine, diethanolamine being preferred. Fatty acid diethanolamides having 8 to 18 carbon atoms are particularly preferred. Examples of suitable fatty acids are caprylic, capric, lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic, arachic, behenic, oleic, linoleic, linolenic or arachidonic acid or coconut fatty acid. Preferred examples of such reaction products are coconut fatty acid diethanolamide and the diethanolamide of lauric acid or stearic acid.
Possible components (c) are organic solvents, for example aliphatic and aromatichydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons and tertiary amines. Straight-chain and in particular branched alkanols having 6 to 22 C atoms are preferred.

The foam suppressants according to the invention can contain other additives customary in such agents, in particular commercially available surface-active hydrophilic adducts of an organopolysiloxane and ethylene oxide and/or propylene oxide and other anionic surfactants.
The organopolysiloxanes as the starting substance for such adducts in principle correspond to the commercially available silicone oils such ;Is are described, for example, in U.S.
Patent Specifications 3~697,440 and 3,7~)3,223. Of these silicone oils, the polydimethylsiloxanes are again of prime interest. The possible siloxanoxyalkylene copolymers can be prepared, for example from halogen-substituted organopolysiloxanes, in particular polydimethylsiloxanes, and alkali metal salts of polyoxyalkylene, for example polyethylene glycols and/or polypropylene glycols.
The siloxanoxyalkylene copolymers are polyether-siloxanes which advantageously have a '~)0~4~) turbidity point at about 20 to 70C, preferably 25 to 50C. The glycol content consisting of oxyethylene groups or oxyethylene and oxypropylene groups is advantageously 35 to 85, preferably 40 to 75 per cent by weight, based on the total weight of the polyether-siloxane.
A preferred embodiment of such a copolymer is accordingly a water-soluble block polymer of a polydimethylsiloxane and ethylene oxide or a copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide which has a dynamic viscosity at 25C of 500 to 3000 mPa.s (Brookfield LVT, Spindel 3, 30 revolutions/minute) and a turbidity point of 20 to 70C.
Such block polymers or polyether-siloxanes can be represented by the probable formula (cH3)3si-o~sli~sic}l3o 1 Si(CH3)3 L CH3 ~ ~ (CH2)rO-(C3H60)s(c~2cH2ottR3 ~

Such polyether-siloxanes are described, for example, in IJ.S. Patent Specifications 2,834,748, 3,389,160, 3,505,277, 3,507,815 and 3,629,308.
Other polyether-siloxanes which can be ~Ised as component (d) are those of the probable fortnula R4~0--~O~Si--0 1 [
L O~ (CmH2md~)--R5 _¦
in which R4 and Rs are each alkyl having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, preferably methyl, a' is 1 to 20, b' is 2 to 20, c' is 1 to 50, d' is 1 or 2, preferably 1, and In is 2 to 5.
Such siloxane compounds are described in U.S. Patent Specification 3,183,254.
Preferred possible anionic surfactants are salts of fatty acids having 8 to 22 C atoms, for example the alkali metal or ammonium salts of lauric, myristic, palmitic, stearic and oleic acid or their mixtures, such as are contained, for example in the coconut oil and palm-kernel oil acids.
Preferred foam suppressants contain 20 to 60, preferably 30 to 55 % by weight ofcomponent (a), 1 to 10, preferably 1 to S % by w~ight of component (b) and 10 to S0, preferably 35 to S0 % by weight of component (c).
Particularly preferred foam suppressants additionally also contain 1 to lS, preferably 1 to 10 % by weight of a siloxanoxialkylene copolymer and 1 to 10, preterably 1 to 5 % by weight of an anionic surfactant.
The foam suppressants according to the invention are prepared in general by mixing comyonent (a) with component (c) to give a homogeneous mixture and adding component (b), while stirring, to the resulting mixture.
The agents according to the invention can be used for suppressing foaming in aqueous systems. 'rhey are employed in amounts of 0.2 to 3, preferably O.S to 1 g per litre of aqueous system.
In the following preparation and use examples, unless stated otherwise, the percentages relate to the weight; parts are parts by weight.
Preparation examples:
A) Preparation of component (n):
Example 1: A mixture of lS0 g of n-butylacrylate and 150 g of di-2-ethylhexyl maleate is heated at 70C in a stirred flask flushed with nitrogen, while stirring. 0.5 g of azodiisobutyronitrile is then added, whereupon the temperature rises to 75C. After this, a solution of 750 g of n-butylacrylate and 750 g of di-2-ethylhexyl maleate is added dropwise to the reaction mixture in the course of 3 1/2 hours. During this period, 6 portions of 0.3 g of azodiisobutyronitrile are added at intervals of 30 minutes. The reaction is exothermic and the temperature rises to 115C. When the feed has ended, 0.5 g of ;~o~
azodiisobutyronitrile is added, and this addition is repeated 3 times, in each case after l hour. The mixture is thcn cooled to 90C and subsequently stirred at this temperature for a further 6 hours. A copolymer is obtained, the viscosity of which at 25C is 31,750 mPa.s.
Example 2: 75 g of n-butylacrylate, dissolved in 225 g of 2-ethylhexyl lactate, are initially introduced into a stirred flask flushed with nitrogen and are heated to 75C. 0.5 g of azodiisobutyronitrile is added to the reaction mixture, the temperature of the reaction mixture rising to 86C. A solution of 825 g of n-butylacrylate in 675 g of 2-ethylhexyl lactate is then added dropwise to the reaction mixture in the course of 4 hours. During this period, 5 portions of 0.3 g of azodiisobutyronitrile are added at intervals of 45 minutes.
The reaction is exothennic and the temperature rises to 93C. When the feed has ended, 0.5 g of azo-di-isobutyronitrile is added and this addition is repeated 4 times in each case after 1 hour. The temperature is kept at 90C and the mixture is subsequently stirred at this temperature for a further 6 hours.

Application examples:
Example 30: 600 g of a mixture of 61 % of the sodium salt of pentadecane-1-sulfonic acid, 8.1 % of the addition product of 4 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of a Cg-Cllalkanol, 5 % of methyldipropylene glycol, 10 % of partial oligomers of 1-hydroxyethane-1,1-diphosphonic acid, 5 % of sorbitol and 11 % of an aqueous 50 %
potassium hydroxide solution are dissolved in 80 litres of water, and 10 litres of sodium hydroxide solution (30 %) are added. To suppress foaming, 100 g of the agent prepared according to ~xample 26 are added to the mixture and the mixture is made up to 100 litres with water.
A raw cotton fabric of 220 g/m2 is impregnated with the liquor thus prepared, squeezed off to liquor pick-up of 100 % and steamed with saturated steam at 101C for 10 minutes. It is then rinsed hot and cold and dried and the CIBA-GEIGY whiteness is determined, which has the rating 10 (that of the raw untreated fabric is -73). The boiling-out liquor is now investigated for foaming properties in accordance with DIN 53902 and a foam height of 20 ml is found. In an identical liquor but without the agent according to the invention, the foam height is 300 ml.
If the agent according to Example 24 is used instead of the agent according to Example ~6, the foam height is 15 ml.
Example 31: 100 kg of cotton tricot arc wetted in 60() litres of deionized water at 40C on a short liquor jet. 36 kg of sodium chloride, 5 kg of the reactive dyestuff of the formula 2~
N ~N
SO~H OH HN--C ~ ~C--NH2 ~ N--N ~ SO3H
0.6 kg of the adduct of 9 mole of ethylene oxide on 1 mole of p-nonylphenol and 0.6 kg of the foam suppressant according to Example 24 are then introduced into the liquor. The substrate is dyed on the short liquor jet at 40C for 45 minutes. 0.6 kg of calcined sodium carbonate is then added, and 1.2 kg of an aqueous 30 % sodium hydroxide solution are added after a further 5 minutes. The tricot is then dyed for a further 40 minutes and subsequently rinsed and re-washed. A fast level red dyeing of the tricot results. During the dyeing process, no interference in the run of the goods occurs. No foarning is to be found.
If dyeing is carried out in the same manner but without addition of the agent according to Example 24, severe foaming and in some cases interference in the run of the goods occurs.
E ample 32: 100 parts of knitted goods of texturized polyester fibre is introduced in an incompletely flooded jet dyeing machine into 1,500 parts of hot water at 60C which contains 2 parts of ammonium sulfate and a finely dispersed dyestuff mixture of the following composition:
2.~ parts of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse Yellow 54, C.I. 47020, 2.6 parts of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse Red 151, C.I. 26130, 0.8 part of the dyestuff C.I. Disperse 131ue 56, C.I. 63285, 2.0 parts of the ammonium salt of the acid sulfuric acid ester of an adduct of glycerol and propylene oxide having a molecular weight of 4,200 and 1.5 parts of the foam suppressant according to Example 26, and ;n which the pH has been adjusted to S with formic acid.
The temperature of the liquor is then increased to 130C in the course of 30 minutes and dyeing is carried out at this temperature for a further 60 minutes. During this period, it can be seen through the inspection window of the dyeing machine that the liquor issuing from the jets contains no foam at all. The liquor is then cooled to 70C. The substrate is subjected to reductive cleaning, rinsing and drying in the customary manner.
æ~ 400 A level brown dyeing with good penetration of the dye (diffusion~ and good fastness properties is thus obtained.
Similarly good effects are also obtained if the foam suppressant according to Example 24 is employed instead of the foam suppressant according to Example 26.
