Description

Ink-jet printing method for textile fibre material
The invention relates to a method for printing textile fibre materials with disperse dyes by means of inkjet printing processes (jet and inkjet processes), and to the corresponding printing inks.
In the textile industry, inkjet printing processes have been used for some years. They enable the printing to be carried out without the use of other customary engraved template products. Thus, considerable savings will be achieved in both cost and time. Especially in the manufacture of original patterns (originals), can accommodate variations in a much shorter time.
Suitable inkjet printing processes should in particular have optimum performance characteristics. For this reason, it may be relevant to use printing inks such as: viscosity, stability, surface tension and conductivity properties. Furthermore, higher demands are made on the quality of the prints produced, in terms such as: higher demands are made on the quality of the colour depth, the fibre-dye binding stability and the various wet-fastness properties. The existing processes do not meet each of these characteristics, and therefore, a need continues to exist for new processes for inkjet printing textiles.
The invention provides a process for the manufacture of printed textile fibre materials by the ink-jet printing process, wherein the fibre material is printed with an aqueous printing ink containing at least one disperse dye, an anionic copolymer and/or a non-ionic block polymer and/or a dispersant.

Also preferably, the ink used in the method of the present invention is an ink having a surface tension of 60 to 30 newtons per centimeter (N/cm), particularly 50 to 40N/cm.
Important inks for use in the process of the invention are those having an electrical conductivity of from 0 to 3000. mu.S/cm, in particular from 100 to 700. mu.S/cm, measured on a 10% aqueous suspension basis.
The printing ink may also comprise a buffer substance, such as borax, borate or citrate. Some examples are borax, sodium borate, sodium tetraborate and sodium citrate. In particular, they are used in an amount of 0.1 to 3%, especially 0.1 to 1%, by weight of the entire ink, so that the pH is, for example, 4 to 10, preferably 5 to 8.
Further additives which may be present in the ink are surfactants, redispersing agents and wetting agents.
Suitable surfactants are the anionic or nonionic surfactants which are generally commercially available. Betaine monohydrate may be mentioned as an example of a redispersing agent. As humectants there are preferably used mixtures of sodium lactate (advantageously in the form of 50-60% strength aqueous solutions) and glycerol and/or propylene glycol, which are preferably used in amounts of from 7 to 20% by weight, based on the printing ink used according to the invention.
The ink may also include, if desired, acid donors, such as butyrolactone or sodium hydrogen phosphate, preservatives, substances which prevent bacterial and/or fungal growth, foam inhibitors, sequestering agents, emulsifiers, water-insoluble solvents, oxidising agents or degassing agents.
Suitable preservatives are, in particular, formaldehyde donors, such as paraformaldehyde and trioxane (trioxane), in particular aqueous formaldehyde solutions having a concentration of from 30 to 40% by weight; suitable sequestering agents are, for example, sodium nitrilotriacetate, sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate and sodium polymetaphosphate, in particular sodium hexametaphosphate; suitable emulsifiers are, in particular, adducts of alkylene oxides and fatty alcohols, especially of oleoyl alcohols and ethylene oxide; suitable water-insoluble solvents are high-boiling saturated hydrocarbons, especially paraffins having a boiling point in the range of 160-210 ℃ (known as naphtha for paints and lacquers); suitable oxidizing agents are, for example, aromatic nitro compounds, in particular aromatic mono-or dinitrocarboxylic acids or sulfonic acids, which may be in the form of alkylene oxide adducts, in particular nitrobenzenesulfonic acids; suitable degassing agents are, for example, high-boiling solvents, in particular turpentine, higher alcohols, preferably C8-10Of a terpene alcohol or a mineral oil and/or silicone oil based degassing agent, especially a commercial formulation consisting of approximately 15-25% by weight of a mixture of mineral oil and silicone oil and 75-85% by weight of C8An alcohol (e.g., 2-ethyl-n-hexanol).
The printing ink can be prepared in a customary manner by mixing the components in the required amount of water.
The ink is preferably prepared, for example, by stirring one or more disperse dyes of the formulae (1) to (23) and a dispersant/copolymer/block polymer mixture and grinding the resulting mixture with a wet grinder to a defined degree of grinding corresponding to an average particle size of 0.2 to 1.0. mu.m. The concentrated millbase is then adjusted to the desired concentration with or without, for example, suitable thickeners, dispersants, copolymers, surfactants, wetting agents, redispersing agents, sequestering agents and/or preservatives, and water. In order to remove any coarse components present, it may be advantageous to filter the ready-to-use ink using a micro-molecular sieve of about 0.1 μm.
The process according to the invention for printing textile fibre materials can be carried out with an inkjet printing machine, which is known per se and is suitable for textile printing.
In the ink-jet printing method, individual droplets of printing ink are ejected in a controlled manner from a nozzle located above the object to be printed. In this case, the methods used are mainly the continuous ink jet method and the drop-on-demand (drop-on-demand) method. In the case of the continuous inkjet method, droplets are produced continuously, and the droplets which are not required in the print carried along are diverted into a collecting container and generally recycled. On the other hand, in the case of drop-on-demand (drop) methods, drops are generated and used in printing when needed; in other words, a droplet is only generated when it is desired to print with a droplet. The generation of the droplets can advantageously be carried out, for example, by means of a piezoelectric ink-jet head or by means of the use of thermal energy (known as bubble jet). The process of the invention is preferably printed using the continuous ink jet process or using the drop-on-demand (drop-on-demand) process.
After printing, the fibre material is dried at a temperature of up to 150 ℃, preferably 80 ℃ to 120 ℃.
The fixing of the fibre material is generally carried out by the dry-heat method (thermal fixing) or by the superheated steam method at atmospheric pressure (HT fixing), followed by fixing. The fixation was carried out under the following conditions:
-heat set colour: 1-2 minutes at 190-230 ℃;
-HT fixation: 4-9 minutes at 170-190 ℃.
The ink used in the present invention can be applied to various types of fiber materials such as wool, silk, cellulose, polyvinyl, polyacrylonitrile, polyamide, aramid, polypropylene, polyester, or polyurethane.
Polyester-containing fibrous materials are preferred.
Suitable polyester-containing fiber materials are those which consist wholly or partly of polyester. Examples are cellulose ester fibers, such as cellulose diacetate and cellulose triacetate fibers, especially linear polyester fibers, acid-modified or not, which are obtained by a process such as: fibers made by the condensation of terephthalic acid with ethylene glycol, or the condensation of isophthalic acid or terephthalic acid with 1, 4-bis-hydroxymethyl-cyclohexane, and copolymers of terephthalic acid and isophthalic acid with ethylene glycol. Suitably expanded to polyester-containing mixed fiber materials; in other words to blends of polyester and other fibers.
The invention further provides an aqueous printing ink for an inkjet printing process, which contains 1 to 35% by weight of at least one disperse dye of the formulae (1) to (23) described above, an anionic copolymer and/or a nonionic block polymer and/or a dispersant.
The printing ink and the disperse dye of the structural formulae (1) to (23) for the printing ink of the present invention, the anionic copolymer, the nonionic block polymer and the dispersant obey the aforementioned definitions and preferred ranges.
The printed product obtained by the invention has good all-round fastness property; for example: they have high fiber-dye bond stability in both the acidic and basic range, good optical stability, good wet fastness properties, for example: water fastness, wash fastness, salt water fastness, cross-dyeing resistance and perspiration fastness. Good fastness to chlorine bleaching, rubbing, ironing and dry heat setting, and also good appearance and high colour strength. The printing inks used exhibit good stability and good viscosity characteristics.
The following examples illustrate the invention. In these embodiments, temperature refers to degrees celsius; unless otherwise indicated, percentages are by weight. The relationship between parts by weight and parts by volume is a kilogram to liter relationship.
