Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of specific UV absorbers for photochemical stabilization of undyed wool or mixed fibers containing wool.
  • EP-A-0 310 083 discloses a method for quenching or suppressing fluorescence of optically brightened natural or synthetic polyamides with sulfonated UV absorbers which, in contrast to the UV absorbers used according to the invention contain one or more sulfo groups directly attached to a benzene ring.
  • US-A-3,444,164 discloses hydroxyphenyl-1,2,3-triazines which differ from those according to the invention Distinguish used hydroxyphenyl-1,2,3-triazines in that they have no hydroxyl group bonded to the alkylene group.
  • EP-A-0 417 040 describes a process for dyeing wool in the presence of a UV absorbers from the class of 2- (2'-hydroxyphenyl) -s-triazines known.
  • synthetic polyamide fibers can be made using Light stabilizers which contain compounds from the class of the sterically hindered amines, can stabilize photochemically.
  • EP-A-0 245 204 discloses the photochemical stabilization of synthetic polyamide fiber material using a combination of organic copper complex compounds, Light stabilizers and antioxidants.
  • EP-A-0 165 608 discloses substituted hydroxyphenyltriazines and their specific ones Application as UV absorber in the photographic materials.
  • the use according to the invention is characterized in that the undyed wool or wool-containing mixed fiber is treated with an aqueous solution which has at least one UV absorber of the formula wherein R 4 and R 5 , independently of one another, are C 1 -C 12 alkyl, m 1 or 2, M is hydrogen, sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammonium or tetraalkylammonium, and n 1 and n 2 are 1 or 2.
  • C 1 -C 12 alkyl examples are methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, decyl, undecyl or dodecyl or isomers of these radicals.
  • Particularly preferred alkyl radicals contain 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
  • alkyl radicals in tetraalkylammonium are in particular independently of one another C 1 -C 4 -alkyl radicals, such as butyl, propyl, ethyl and preferably methyl.
  • Preferred compounds of the formula (3) are those in which M hydrogen; and R 4 and R 5 are methyl; mean.
  • the compounds of the formula (3) can be prepared in a manner known per se, e.g. by the processes described in EP-A-0 165 608.
  • the amount of UV absorber to be added depends on the substrate and the desired one Stabilization starts. In general, 0.1 to 5, preferably 0.3 to 3,% by weight, based on to the wool, too.
  • the compounds of the formula (3) are applied from an aqueous bath.
