Description
Fabric Rinse Composition containing a cationic UV absorber The present invention relates to a fabric rinse composition containing a UV
absorber and to a method of treating textiles with the composition, which method imparts to textile fiber material so treated, in addition to an excellent UV Protecting Factor(UPF) value other desir-able properties.
It is known that light radiation of wavelengths 280-400 rim permits tanning of the epider-mis. Also known is that rays of wavelengths 280-320 nm (termed UV-B
radiation), cause ery-themas and skin burning, which can inhibit skin tanning.
Radiation of wavelengths 320-400 nm (termed UV-A radiation) is known to induce skin tan-ning but can also cause skin damage, especially to sensitive skin, which is exposed to sunlight for long periods. Examples of such damage include loss of skin elasticity and the appearance of wrinkles, promotion of the onset of erythemal reaction and the inducement of phototoxic or photoallergic reactions.
Any effective protection of the skin from the damaging effects of undue exposure to sunlight clearly needs to include means for absorbing both UV-A and UV-B components of sunlight before they reach the skin surface.
Traditionally, protection of exposed human skin against potential damage by the UV com-ponents in sunlight has been effected by directly applying to the skin a preparation contain-ing a UV absorber.
One aspect of the desire to increase the level of skin protection against sunlight has been the consideration of additional measures, over and above the direct protection of the skin.
For example, consideration has been given to the provision of protection to skin covered by clothing and thus not directly exposed to sunlight.
Most natural and synthetic textile materials are at least partially permeable to UV compo-nents of sunlight. Accordingly, the mere wearing of clothing does not necessarily provide _2_ skin beneath the clothing with adequate protection against damage by UV
radiation. Al-though clothing containing a deeply colored dye and/or having a tight weave texture may provide a reasonable level of protection to skin beneath it, such clothing is not practical in hot sunny climates, from the standpoint of the personal comfort of the wearer.
There is a need, therefore, to provide protection against UV radiation for skin which lies un-derneath clothing, including lightweight summer clothing, which is undyed or dyed only in pale shades. Depending on the nature of the dyestuff, even skin beneath clothing dyed in some dark shades may also require protection from UV radiation.
Such lightweight summer clothing normally has a density of less than 200 g/m2 and has a sun protection factor rating between 1.5 and 20, depending on the type of fibre from which the clothing is manufactured.
The UPF rating of a sun protectant (sun cream or clothing) may be defined as the multiple of the time taken for the average person wearing the sun protectant to suffer sun burning un-der average exposure to sun. For example, if an average person would normally suffer sun burn after 30 minutes under standard exposure conditions, a sun protectant having an UPF
rating of S would extend the period of protection from 30 minutes to 2 hours and 30 min-utes. For people living in especially sunny climates, where mean sun burn times are minimal, e.g. only 15 minutes for an average fair-skinned person at the hottest time of the day, UPF
ratings of about 20 are desired for lightweight clothing.
The selection of a suitable UVA, for use in a method for effecting an increase in the UPF
value of a textile fiber material (often referred to as a "UV cutting"
treatment method), has to take into account the fact that the treated textile fiber material must satisfy performance cri-teria in a wide range of areas, such as washfastness, lightfastness and tear resistance, apart from its UPF value.
Another major problem for consumers in many parts of the world is the fading of colored fabrics by sunlight (so-called "photo-fading") during wear and during drying.
Thus suscep tible fabrics in temperature and high latitude regions in addition to those in the tropics can be severely faded. Photo- fading of fabrics is of specific concern to consumers because the contrast between exposed and unexposed areas makes it particularly noticeable.
Surprisingly it was found that the use of specific UV absorbers in a fabric rinse composition imparts enhanced UPF, and simultaneously effectively prevents the photo-fading of said fab-nc.
Therefore the present invention provides a stable, concentrated fabric rinse composition comprising a) 0.1 to 10, preferably 0.1 to S % by weight of a UV absorber of formula R~

Depending on the nature of the dyestuff, even skin beneath clothing dyed in some dark shades may also require protection from UV radiation.
Such lightweight summer clothing normally has a density of less than 200 g/m2 and has a sun protection factor rating between 1.5 and 20, depending on the type of fibre from which the clothing is manufactured.
The UPF rating of a sun protectant (sun cream or clothing) may be defined as the multiple of the time taken for the average person wearing the sun protectant to suffer sun burning un-der average exposure to sun. For example, if an average person would normally suffer sun burn after 30 minutes under standard exposure conditions, a sun protectant having an UPF
rating of S would extend the period of protection from 30 minutes to 2 hours and 30 min-utes. For people living in especially sunny climates, where mean sun burn times are minimal, e.g. only 15 minutes for an average fair-skinned person at the hottest time of the day, UPF
ratings of about 20 are desired for lightweight clothing.
The selection of a suitable UVA, for use in a method for effecting an increase in the UPF
value of a textile fiber material (often referred to as a "UV cutting"
treatment method), has to take into account the fact that the treated textile fiber material must satisfy performance cri-teria in a wide range of areas, such as washfastness, lightfastness and tear resistance, apart from its UPF value.
Another major problem for consumers in many parts of the world is the fading of colored fabrics by sunlight (so-called "photo-fading") during wear and during drying.
Thus suscep tible fabrics in temperature and high latitude regions in addition to those in the tropics can be severely faded. Photo- fading of fabrics is of specific concern to consumers because the contrast between exposed and unexposed areas makes it particularly noticeable.
Surprisingly it was found that the use of specific UV absorbers in a fabric rinse composition imparts enhanced UPF, and simultaneously effectively prevents the photo-fading of said fab-nc.
Therefore the present invention provides a stable, concentrated fabric rinse composition comprising a) 0.1 to 10, preferably 0.1 to S % by weight of a UV absorber of formula R~

(L*, a*, b* are as described in Colorimetry, 2"d Edition, CIE Publication no. 15.2, published by Bureau, Central de la CIE, Paris 1982).
The DE value is defined by the following equation:
0E = ~(~r* ' ~*)Z + (ar* - a *)2 + (br* - b.*)Z}vz where the subscripts i and f refer to the values as measured with or without irradiation of the sample, respectively.
The CIE color measurements of the colored fabric washed/rinsed without UV-aborber/irradiated (reference = not irradiated) and the colored fabric washed/rinsed with UV-absorber/irradiated (reference = not irradiated) obtained the following results:
