Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to treating textiles. Inter alia the invention relates to treating textiles with insecticides.
- It is known that paper can be treated with dyes and odoriferous agents contained within microcapsules so that these can be released therefrom when the paper is subjected to compression, as when it is struck by a typewriter key hammer, for example, or compressed or abraded by a writing implement.
- The choice of microcapsule has been recently expanded to include microbial cells such as those comprised by fungi, bacteria and algae as disclosed in European Patent Application 0,242,135, which describes adherence of the microcapsules to paper absent a binder or adhesive, although the intended contents for such microcapsules are limited to those classes which are already well known, viz, fragrances, dyes and biocides.
- Moreover, the intended uses of such microcapsules are limited to those for which prior microcapsules have found applications. Such applications include those where the contents of the microcapsule are released continuously therefrom, as in coating paper to produce perfumed drawer liners, for example; or those applications where use of an article coated with or comprising encapsulated substances, for the purpose intended is destructive of further capacity of the article to provide the desired results. Thus, for example, normal use of non-carbon copy paper consumes its capacity for further normal use.
- Thus prior microcapsules have found rather pedestrian application in either use once only articles, or in continuous release systems.
- The present invention provides novel uses for micro-encapsulation.
- According to the present invention there is provided a method for applying an insecticide to a fibrous textile material characterised by encapsulating the insecticide within microcapsules of a substance which is a food to which insects or their larvae are attracted and attaching the microcapsules to the fibres of the material with a binder which does not impede the release of the insecticide when the microcapsules are devoured.
- The microcapsules may, for example, be a yeast such as Saccharomyces cerivisiae.
- The microcapsules may comprise starch or corn granules, or cellulosic fibres, such as those derived from wood pulp.
- Said solvent may be ethanol.
- The microcapsules may be bound to cotton in a moist-cure cross-linking process, using, for example, Fixapret CPN.
- Preferably, however, an ethylene grafted vinyl acetate copolymer emulsion, such as Vinamul 6705 is used to bind the microcapsules to cotton.
- When the textile is wool, a copolymer comprising adipic acid and diethylene triamine partially cross-linked with epichlorohydrin, such as Hercosett may be used as the binder. It will be appreciated, however, that a copolymer of methylmethacrylate and dimethylaminoethylmethacrylate, for example, Dylan GRB, likewise treated with epichlorohydrin may also be used as a binder.
- The invention will be further apparent from the following description, with reference to the several figures of the accompanying drawings, which illustrate the invention by way of examples only, with reference to the production of woollen carpets comprising encapsulated insecticides.
- Of the drawings :-
- Figure 1
- shows schematically the precipitation of an alkali soluble biocide within yeast cells to yield a microcapsule containing biocide, prior to the application thereof, for example, to a woollen carpet;
- Figure 2
- likewise shows the microencapsulation of an organic solvent-soluble biocide within yeast cells to yield microcapsules containing biocide prior to the application thereof to textiles;
- Figure 3
- is from a scanning electron micrograph of cotton fabric with yeast bound by Vinamul 6705 thereto;
- Figure 4
- is from a scanning electron micrograph of a cotton wool batt with yeast bound by Vinamul thereto; and
- Figure 5
- is from a scanning electron micrograph of a wool fibre with yeast bound thereto by Hercosett 125.
- Moth proofing agents, Mitin FF, Eulan WA and Perigen were dissolved in ethanol, and a dried yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, added thereto. The solvent was evaporated from the resulting suspension, and the yeast cells comprising the thereby encapsulated insecticides were applied, using a spray technique in which the binder was vinamul 6705, to samples of woollen carpets.
- The Vinamul concentration was approximately 2% by weight of the carpet to which the insecticide containing-yeast cells were added.
- The microencapsulated insecticide is, as a consequence of the method, contained within a micro-capsule and released therefrom in response to moth larvae attempting to devour the wool fibres to which the said micro-capsules are attached.
- It will be appreciated that the amount of insecticide applied to the carpet is dependent upon the amount of insecticide encapsulated within the yeast cells, as well as on the number of yeast cells bound to the carpet. It may be preferred to encapsulate a relatively low level of insecticide within the cells but to bind a relatively high number of insecticide containing cells to the carpet. It is thought that moth larvae are attracted to yeast as a nutrient source. Encapsulating a small but fatal dose of biocide in each cell and attaching a large number of cells to the wool fibres will provide the capacity to kill large numbers of larvae without depleting the biocide level too much.
- The nature of the binder is such that it does not disguise the nature of the microcapsule so that the moth larvae, for example continue to be attracted to the yeast cells rather than to the fibre, notwithstanding that these are embedded in a binder.
- Figures 3 to 5 show the insecticide-containing
microcapsules 9 bound with Vinamul 6705 (Figures 3 and 4) or Hercosett 125 (figure 5) to a cotton fibre 10 (Figure 3), a cotton batt 11 (Figure 4) or a wool fibre 12 (Figure 5). - The method, according to the invention provides that the microcapsule is not necessarily pre-formed, but may be formed in situ within the binder.
- It will be appreciated that it is not intended to limit the invention to the above example only, many variations, such as might readily occur to one skilled in the art, being possible, without departing from the scope thereof as defined by the appended claims.
- For example, numerous end use applications of the method according to the invention will be apparent as a consequence of its disclosure.
- Although the examples describe application of the microencapsulated substances to substrata by a spraying process, it will be appreciated that a padding process, or indeed a coating, or exhaustion process may be sometimes used with advantage depending on the desired result.
- The amount of binder in which the microcapsules are dispersed may be varied so as to affect the distribution of capsules applied to a particular textile. Moreover, it may be desired to alter the accessibility of said capsules so as to expose greater or lesser regions of these to the event which causes release of the substances contained therein.
- It will be obvious that the various binders must be treated having regard to the nature of the capsules dispersed therein, so that, for example, treatments which are not detrimental to the binder but which are harmful to the microcapsules and/or contents thereof and vice versa are not used.
- The invention is not limited to the examples of the binders described herein, and includes many other suitable polymers, such as polyurethanes and derivatives thereof.
