Definitions

  • the invention relates to polyglycol esters of the formula I. in which R is an open-chain aliphatic radical having 9 to 19, preferably 11 to 17 C atoms, Z is hydrogen and methyl, the ratio H: CH 3 being 2: 1 to 4: 1, preferably 2.5: 1 to 3.5: 1, a is zero or 1, b is 1 to 1.5 and (4-a) n is 150 to 300, preferably 200 to 250.
  • polyglycol esters in which the radical R-CO is oleyl, the ratio of H: CH 3 in the radical Z 3: 1 is random, a is zero, b is 1.1 and (4-a) n is about 210.
  • the invention further relates to a process for the preparation of said polyglycol esters, which is characterized in that a compound of the formula in which a is zero or 1, with 150-300 times, preferably 200-250 times, in particular about 210 times molar amount of a mixture of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide in a molar ratio of 2: 1 to 4: 1 and the oxalkylate with a
  • a compound of the formula in which a is zero or 1, with 150-300 times, preferably 200-250 times, in particular about 210 times molar amount of a mixture of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide in a molar ratio of 2: 1 to 4: 1 and the oxalkylate with a
  • the rest of the R-CO-introducing acylating agent is partially esterified.
  • Such acylating agents are natural or synthetic fatty acids such as, for example, stearic acid, palmitic acid, oleic acid, linolenic acid, tallow fatty acid, tall oil fatty acid, isostearic acid, coconut fatty acid or mixtures of such acids, and the corresponding acid chlorides.
  • the invention further relates to the use of the new polyglycol esters as surface-active agents.
  • the new polyglycol esters are particularly suitable for increasing or stabilizing the viscosity of aqueous systems, in particular as an additive to printing pastes or padding liquors.
  • the polyglycol esters are added in amounts of about 0.1 to about 10%, based on the weight of the finished preparation, that is to say about 1 to 100 g, preferably 2 to 30 g, of polyglycol ester per kg of printing paste.
  • Aqueous preparations of the polyglycol esters according to the invention can already be used as thickeners without further additives.
  • the new polyglycol esters are particularly advantageous as additives to other known thickeners, and not only can they increase the viscosity of aqueous systems, but above all they can also stabilize them.
  • the thickening agent furthermore offers the possibility of accommodating different reactants in a printing ink, which in its absence would react with one another prematurely, ie already in the printing ink and not only on the fiber.
  • the thickening agent acts as a "spacer" and prevents the premature interaction of reactive components.
  • tannin can be accommodated in a printing ink of a cationic dye without the formation of the tannin varnish, which should only take place when the fibers are steamed.
  • the thickener also has the task of dissolving such substances in high to keep mogeneous dispersion and to ensure that the pigment does not get stuck in the engraving of the rollers, but reaches the goods homogeneously with the printing ink.
  • the selection of a thickener is directed by a variety of factors. Among other things, by the type of printing process, by the composition of the printing ink, by the depth of the roller engraving and the required depth of color of the print by the quality of the goods, especially if there is a requirement for a print run, and also by the type of pattern, i.e. Whether small or large patterns (register or decker) should be printed determines.
  • the polyglycol esters according to the invention are particularly suitable as an addition to purely synthetic thickeners, in particular those which contain carboxyl groups.
  • copolymers of maleic anhydride and a vinyl alkyl ether or other copolymerizable monomers which can be crosslinked with polybasic amines, polyhydric alcohols or amino alcohols, are furthermore polymers of acrylic acid, maleic acid or their anhydrides, such as those with divinylbenzene or unsaturated diesters, such as Dialkylmaleinester or _ ⁇ th_ylenglykoldimethacrylestern can be cross-linked.
  • polyglycol ethers according to the invention are suitable as additives for oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions and their mixtures with native thickeners.
  • the polyglycol esters according to the invention can not only increase or stabilize the viscosity, but also allow the viscosity to be restored to a system which has been damaged, for example, by the influence of electrolytes.
  • the compounds of the formula I can also be used as emulsifiers.
  • the compounds of the formula I are preferably used for the preparation of dye emulsions which are used for dyeing and printing textiles. These emulsions show an extraordinarily good penetration into the textiles, so that uniform, deep dyeings with good fastness properties result.
  • the emulsion thickenings customary hitherto have a number of disadvantages: due to the relatively low emulsifying action of the conventional emulsifiers, quite large amounts of these surface-active agents were required, which often led to excessive foaming when the emulsions were prepared.
  • Common defoamers such as those used in the textile industry, can change the stability and effectiveness of the printing pastes. In particular, there is a risk that the addition of defoaming components can cause the emulsion to split, i.e. the already finished emulsions are broken again. This effect is often only a question of the quantity ratio, i.e.
  • the emulsifiers according to the invention show significant advantages compared to the commercially available products: the customary water-swellable thickeners, namely alginates, corn meal ether, starch ether or carboxymethyl cellulose, contain more or less significant amounts of alkali ions that can break down as electrolytes emulsions.
  • An emulsion thickening obtained in accordance with the present invention contains, based on the weight of the finished emulsion thickening, 0.1 to 2, preferably 0.2 to 1% of compounds of the formula I, 50 to 70% of the water-immiscible solvents and 28 to 49, 9% water.
  • Solvents which are immiscible with water are mainly hydrocarbons such as hexanes, heptanes, nonanes, cyclohexylbenzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydronaphthalene and gasolines or mixtures of such solvents.
  • the printing pastes produced with such emulsion thickenings also contain colorants, in particular pigments, and binders. If necessary, these printing pastes can also contain acid donors such as diammonium hydrogen phosphate.
  • the printing pastes prepared with the emulsions according to the invention result in very level and brilliant prints with very good stability.
  • These printing pastes are particularly suitable for pigment printing on cotton, rayon and other natural and also synthetic fibers and their mixtures, in particular on mixtures of natural and synthetic fibers.
  • the emulsion thickeners according to the invention are also suitable in a mixture with water-swellable thickeners such as alginates, core meal ethers, starch ethers or carboxymethyl celluloses for printing pastes with dyes, for example disperse dyes, reactive dyes and acid dyes.
  • the emulsions according to the invention can be prepared by stirring the oily and aqueous phases together with the emulsifier or by other customary processes known from the literature (P. Becker, Emulsions: Theory and Practice, Reinhold Publishing Corp., New York, 1957, p. 209, Houben-Weyl, Vol. I 2, p. 97). It proves to be advantageous here that the compounds of formula 1 are water-soluble so that they can be used as aqueous solutions for the preparation of the emulsions.
  • a particular advantage of the compounds of the formula I is that generally only simple stirrers have to be used in the preparation of the emulsions. This also results in considerable process simplifications compared to other emulsifiers.
  • the emulsions according to the invention have excellent stability. Should creaming nevertheless occur after prolonged storage under unfavorable conditions, these are reversible and can generally be converted back into the original emulsion by gentle stirring.
  • emulsions can be produced with the emulsifiers according to the invention.
  • block copolymers of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide which are derived from glycerol, pentaerythritol and trimethylolpropane and are - if appropriate partially - esterified. These compounds are suitable as foam preventers.
  • DE-OS 1 619053 discloses water-insoluble reaction products of polyols with ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, which are completely esterified. These compounds substantively attach to the polyester fiber and prevent the escaping of ester oligomers from the fiber material.
  • polyglycols which are obtained by polymerizing mixtures of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. These compounds are suitable as emulsifiers and as metal lubricants.
  • the rheogram shows that the viscosity of printing paste A with the dash-dot flow curve decreases sharply due to the addition of an electrolyte (printing paste B with the continuous flow curve).
  • Printing paste C with the dash-dash flow curve shows the viscosity-improving effect of the product of the invention.
  • polyglycol ester This product is referred to briefly as "polyglycol ester" in the following examples. These examples described the use of the polyglycol ester as an emulsifier.
  • a cotton poplar fabric is printed with this printing paste, dried and fixed at 150 ° C for 7 minutes. You get brilliant red prints with very good rub fastness.
  • This low-foam, easy-to-process printing paste is used to print a fabric made of cellulose, dry it, fix it in saturated steam for 5 minutes and wash it. After a short rinsing and washing process, the fabric no longer contains any thickener residues. After drying, the high brilliance of the yellow prints becomes clearer.
  • a polymer emulsion is obtained which is practically free of coarse and fine coagulate.
  • the conversion of the monomers is 95%.
  • a polymer emulsion is obtained which is free of coarse or fine deposits, the monomer conversion is 100%.
