Definitions

  • This invention relates to a urethane polymer finish for textile fabrics utilized in window coverings such as pleated shades and vertical blinds.
  • Window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds that are formed of textile fabric as a base material allows for considerable aesthetic variation with regard to types of fabric utilized and the coloration thereof with the advantage of having material with a firm handle that is relatively durable.
  • Still another problem with some typical finishes for window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds formed of textile fabric is that typically they do not pass the ASTM 701 Vertical Flame Test and/or the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302 Horizontal Flame Test without the specific addition of flame retardant chemicals that can significantly alter the chemical composition of the textile finish.
  • the present invention solves the above problems in a manner not disclosed in the known prior art.
  • This invention provides a urethane polymer finish for textile fabrics utilized in window coverings such as pleated shades and vertical blinds.
  • This finish for window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds includes a urethane polymer made from a diisocyanate and either a polyester or a polyether soft segment.
  • the diisocyanate may be either aromatic or aliphatic with an aliphatic diisocyanate preferred to prevent yellowing.
  • the combination of these ingredients is either carboxylated or emulsified and then neutralized.
  • This urethane polymer may optionally include a halogenated moiety, such as a brominated monomer.
  • the actual percentage of urethane polymer in the dried finish on the textile fabric may be as low as forty-five percent and still achieve some of the significant qualities of this urethane polymer finish.
  • Some of the these significant qualities of this urethane polymer finish include shape retention, high softening point, flame retardancy, non-blocking, stiffness, non-yellowing and light fastness.
  • window coverings such as pleated shades formed of textile fabric that have a high degree of pleat retention.
  • window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds formed of textile fabric are relatively stiff.
  • window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds formed of textile fabric utilizes a finish that does not include either formaldehyde, triethylamine or ammonia.
  • Another advantage of this invention is that hysteresis loss for window coverings such as pleated shades formed of textile fabric is very low.
  • Yet another advantage of this invention is that the textile fabric forming pleated shades and/or vertical blinds does not block unto itself.
  • Another advantage of this invention is that the pleated shades and/or vertical blinds have very high resistance to discoloration with a high degree of light fastness.
  • This invention relates to an improved finish for window coverings such as pleated shades and/or vertical blinds formed of textile fabric with a high degree of stiffness, no formaldehyde emission, and excellent flame retardancy. Additional properties include the ability to make a pleated structure with excellent resistance to deformation and aging at high temperatures of 150-170°F.
  • the present invention includes a fabric substrate that is coated with a urethane polymer.
  • This textile fabric can be any of a wide variety of woven or non-woven fabrics since this urethane polymer finish does not react with the textile substrate.
  • the preferred weight range of the textile fabric is between 1.7 and 4 ounces per square yard.
  • the yarns making up the textile fabric can be of virtually any denier with the only constraint being that the textile fabric cannot be either too heavy or too light to form suitable window coverings.
  • this urethane polymer finish is a 100% urethane polymer system, although as will be later shown and described, urethane blends are suitable.
  • the physical properties of urethane polymers are relatively easy to obtain. The specific structural properties are proprietary, so that the only information available is whether the urethane polymer is aromatic or aliphatic, polyether or polyester, or whether carboxyl groups or cross-linking is present.
  • the first ingredient of this urethane polymer is diisocyanate. Aliphatic diisocyanates are preferred over aromatic diisocyanates due to the possible yellowing of the textile fabric that may occur with aromatic polyurethanes.
  • the second major ingredient is either a polyester or polyether soft segment.
  • a polyester soft segment is preferred, either a polyether or polyester soft segment will suffice.
  • a polyether or polyester soft segment will suffice.
  • a third ingredient, a halogenated moiety is deemed optional and provides flame retardant qualities for the textile finish.
  • the preferred halogen is bromide, although chloride is a possible substitute.
  • the preferred form of the halogenated moiety is for a monomer to be polymerized into the urethane polymer itself.
  • FIG. 1 a pleated shade window covering is generally indicated by numeral 10, while the individual pleats formed of textile fabric having a urethane polymer finish are represented by numeral 20.
  • FIG. 2 is a vertical blind mechanism with an individual vertical blind slat formed of textile fabric having a urethane polymer finish and indicated by numeral 27. Both FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 demonstrate the two main types of window coverings that utilize textile fabric and can been stiffened by a chemical finish.
  • Two typical examples of known chemical finishes for textile fabrics include polyvinyl chloride and an acrylic polymer.
  • An example of an application of an acrylic polymer as a chemical finish for a three ounce, one hundred percent polyester fabric can be found in TABLE 1.
  • the specific acrylic polymer is RHOPLEX® AC-604 manufactured by Rohm and Haas Company located at Independence Mall West, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19105.
  • the components of this product include: an acrylic polymer, individual residual monomers, formaldehyde, triethylamine, methanol, melamine-formaldehyde resin, and water. Formaldehyde and triethylamine are deemed hazardous chemicals. Table 1 shows that in this specific example, there was 23% of this chemical in a water bath.
  • Hysteresis demonstrates the ability of the textile fabric retain its original shape. Nine additional stiffness measurements are made in both the warp and filling directions with the largest difference between stiffness measurements being divided by the initial stiffness measurement in that direction. The larger the negative value indicates the decreased stability of the finished textile fabric to return to its original shape. Hysteresis is shown in Table 1 as a -22/-25. An imperative aspect of the chemical finish for window covering textile fabric is that it does not stick to itself. This is technically referred to as "blocking".
  • the blocking test is conducted by placing finished textile fabric face to face or back to back with a five pound per square inch weight on the finished textile fabric in an oven at 180°C. for one hour. During that time, the finished textile fabric should not stick to itself after cooling. With a three ounce polyester fabric padded with twenty percent RHOPLEX® AC-604, there is typically no blockage at 350°F.
  • the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302 Horizontal Flame test fails for this acrylic polymer chemical finish as well as the ASTM 701 Vertical Flame test.
  • Light fastness is conducted by placing textile fabric having a chemical finish under a xenon light bulb for eighty hours. The finished textile fabric is then compared to predetermined set standard specimens. Values range between zero and five with five being complete color retention and zero being absolutely no color retention. Light fastness for RHOPLEX® AC-604 applied to three ounce polyester fabric is 4.5.
  • Another typical known finish is a polyvinyl chloride finish.
  • An example of this is GEON® 460X49 manufactured by B. F. Goodrich Company, Specialty Polymers and Chemicals Division that located at 911 Brecksville Road, Cleveland, Ohio 44141-3247. This is a synthetic anionic colloidal emulsion of vinyl chloride copolymer 49% (in water 51%).
  • a specific application of GEON® 460X49 to three ounce, one hundred percent polyester fabric can be found in TABLE 2. In this Example, the percentage of chemical in the water bath is 11.5% and the percentage of finish in relationship to the total weight of the fabric and dried finish is 10.5%. Stiffness measured across the filling yarns is 50 grams, while the stiffness across the warp yarns is 147 grams.
  • stiffness across the warp yarns means stiffness making a knife measurement perpendicular to the warp yarns which is actually parallel to the filling yarns and the stiffness across the filling yarns is measured by placing the knife parallel to the warp yarns.
  • This three ounce polyester fabric treated by GEON® 460X49 would appear to pass both the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302 Horizontal Flame test and the ASTM 701 Vertical Flame test. Light fastness was experimentally determined to be 3.5 on the scale of five.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 a vertical shade generally designated as numerals 30A and 30B, respectively.
  • the angle 40A between pleats is almost the same at the top of pleated shade 30A as it is near the bottom of pleated shade 30A as shown by angle 42A.
  • FIG. 4 after being subjected to heat such as between 150 to 170 degrees Fahrenheit for a duration of three to five eight hour days, the angle between the pleated shades as designated by 40B at the upper part of the pleated shade 30B increases while the angle between the pleated shades as designated by 42B at the lower part of the pleated shade 30B decreases. This increasing angle 40B, as shown in FIG.
  • the line designated by the numeral 120 indicates a polyvinyl chloride finish.
  • the line designated by the numeral 122 designates an acrylic polymer with formaldehyde finish.
  • the line designated by numeral 124 is a urethane polymer finish of the present invention that is coating a 1.7 ounces per square yard, one hundred percent polyester fabric and line indicated by numeral 126 is another urethane polymer finish of the present invention coating a 3.0 ounce per square yard, one hundred percent polyester fabric.
  • the pleat retention for urethane polymer finishes is significantly better then for PVC or acrylic polymers. This presents a significant advantage for urethane polymer textile coating.
  • FIG. 9 discloses pleat retention at 170 degrees Fahrenheit for duration of five days whereby each day is an eight hour day with heat and a sixteen hour cooling period where the temperature is 72 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • the top two lines designated by numerals 130 and 132 respectively demonstrate the application of a polyvinyl chloride finish. As shown, angle 40B as found on FIG. 4 will vary dramatically.
  • the two lines designated by numerals 134 and 136 respectively demonstrate the application of a urethane polymer finish in which the pleat retention angle 40B as shown in FIG. 4 will not vary significantly and appears to stabilize after the third day of subjecting the textile fabric to a temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • a crucial aspect about this new innovative process is the aspect of stiffness with regard to window coverings such as pleated shades and vertical blinds.
  • any padding application beyond 14% of solids on a 3 ounce per square yard polyester fabric does not enhance the stiffness to any measurable extent.
  • the line designating the stiffness taken across the filling yarns by applying a knife in a 10 millimeter slot parallel to the warp yarns is designated by numeral 112.
  • the line designating the stiffness taken across the warp yarns by applying a knife in a 10 millimeter slot parallel to the filing yarns is designated by numeral 110.
  • FIG. 6 a similar graph of stiffness versus percent solids in a pad bath is graphed.
  • the line of stiffness taken across the filling yarns by bending of the warp yarns in a direction parallel thereto is designated by numeral 116.
  • the line of stiffness taken across the warp yarns by bending of the filing yarns in a direction parallel thereto is designated by numeral 114.
  • Another significant aspect of this urethane polymer coating is a very high softening point.
  • the softening point is determined by needle penetration in the coated fabric. As shown by the line designated numeral 118, as shown in FIG. 7, there is very little or no penetration of the needle up to 100°C. This provides a significant advantage over vinyl chloride or acrylic polymers.
  • Some of the significant qualities of this invention include the fact that the pleating characteristics are excellent, ageing properties at room temperature and high temperature are excellent, shade hysteresis is very low, good resistance to discoloration and the light fastness of polyester fabric is excellent with usually a reading of four and above.
  • This urethane polymer finish or blend thereof can be applied by either padding or coating.
  • An example of a means of coating is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,110,666, issued May 5, 1992, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
  • An example of a means of padding is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,240,644, issued August 31, 1993, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
  • this Example involves the padding of a 100% polyester fabric that is 1.7 ounces per square yard with a polymer made from an aliphatic diisocyanate with a polyester soft segment and a brominated monomer that is commercially available as SANCURE® 1049A whose additional known ingredients include 2-pyrrolidinone, 1 methyl, dipropylene glycol, monomethyl ether, and n,n dimethylethanolamine.
  • SANCURE® 1049A is manufactured by Sanncor Industries, Inc. located at 300 Whitney Street, Leominster, Massachusetts 01453. The percentage of polymer from SANCURE® 1049A in a water bath is 14% while the percentage of finish in relationship to total weight of fabric and dried finish is 15%.
  • the stiffness measurement taken across the warp yarns is 41 grams while the stiffness measurement taken across the filing yarns is 45 grams.
