Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans with degrees of substitution below 0.15 as sizing agents, and to a process for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns using these compounds.
- sizing agents are used in the weaving process in order to give the warp thread sufficient strength and, on the other hand, to stick protruding fibers to the yarn body or, in the case of filament yarns, to bond the individual filaments to one another. This increases the strength of the warp thread during weaving.
- Well-known sizing agents are native or modified starches, carboxymethylcelluloses, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates.
- the sizing agents have to be removed from the fabric again after the weaving process, since they would otherwise interfere with the subsequent finishing processes.
- One way of removing the sizing agents is to simply wash them out with water, which presupposes that the sizing agents can be washed out with water.
- Such water-washable sizing agents are, in particular, carboxymethyl-substituted starches, carboxymethyl celluloses, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates. Except for the carboxymethyl-substituted starches, the other sizing agents show only poor biodegradability.
- the carboxymethylated starches are readily biodegradable, but leave something to be desired in their sizing effect, which is why they have to be used in large quantities, which in part has the advantage of good biodegradability is compensated again.
- the poor biodegradability of the other sizing agents is particularly disadvantageous because sizing agents make up the main part of the wastewater pollution caused by the textile industry. It is assumed that the sizing agents cause up to 80% of the textile wastewater pollution. There has been no shortage of attempts to provide sizing agents with high efficiency and good water washability, which have improved biodegradability.
- biodegradable sizing agents which are water-washable and which, at least in their sizing effect, are comparable or even better than the sizing agents used to date, such as carboxymethyl cellulose.
- An object of the present invention is therefore the use of alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans with degrees of substitution below 0.15 as sizing agents for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns.
- carboxymethylated guar galactomannan and carboxymethyl guar galactomannan are used synonymously.
- Guar galactomannan products are made from Guarsaat's endosperm.
- Native guar products consist of galactomannans with small amounts of protein, fiber and fat as well as very small amounts of alkali and alkaline earth metals, iron and some trace elements.
- the chemical structure of the galactomannans in guargalactomannan is described as a linear mannose chain, where the mannose units are fused together by (1 ⁇ 4) - ⁇ - glycosidic bonds, and every second mannose unit carries a galactose unit by substitution of the hydrogen of the primary hydroxyl group.
- the galactose molecule is connected to the mannan main chain by a (1 ⁇ 6) - ⁇ - glycosidic bond.
- the two sugar units have hydroxyl groups in the cis position, in contrast to glucose, the monomer of cellulose and the starch, which all hydroxyl groups have in the trans position.
- the cis-hydroxyl groups and the elongated rigid structure of the galactomannan are the reason for many unique properties of guargalactomannan and its derivatives.
- Guargalactomannan can be modified like other polysaccharides. One type of modification is carboxymethylation, which produces anionic guar galactomannan derivatives.
- the carboxymethylation can be analogous to the American one Patents US-A-2 520 161 and US-A-2 477 544 are carried out by reacting the guar galactomannan with a cold aqueous solution of alkali hydroxides and then treating the alkali derivatives of guar galactomannan with a halogenated fatty acid or its salt. You can also carboxmethylate with other carboxylic acids or their salts such as with glycolic acid or with sodium glycolate. Depending on the amount of reactants used and reaction times and conditions, different degrees of substitution of guar galactomannan are obtained. A maximum degree of substitution of 3 is possible. For the purposes of the invention, preference is given to those alkali metal salts of carboxylmethyl guar which have degrees of substitution from 0.05 to 0.15.
- Guar galactomannan products have molecular weights ranging from 0.5 to 11 ⁇ 10 6 . If a modification such as carboxymethylation takes place, the guar galactomannan products are generally depolymerized at the same time. Since the molecular weight determination of such polymers can cause difficulties in practice, a move has been made to indicate the viscosity associated with this instead of the molecular weight.
- alkali metal salts of oxidatively degraded carboxymethylguargalactomannan are used which, as a 4% strength by weight aqueous solution, have a Höppler viscosity at 20 ° C. between 10 and 3000 mPas, preferably between 20 and 500 mPas.
- the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans can contain alkali metal halides as impurities.
- the impurities in alkali halides can be reduced in a manner known per se, for example by washing out with a methanol / water mixture.
- Another impurity that can occur according to the above production processes are the salts of the glycolic acids, which can also be removed, for example, by washing with a methanol / water mixture.
- alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans the corresponding sodium salt is particularly preferred.
- the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guargalactomannan can be used alone or in any mixture with conventional sizing agents, preferably with the starch derivatives, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates.
- the mixing ratios are selected depending on the desired size properties and are in the amounts customary for the person skilled in the art.
- the alkali salts of carboxymethyl guar galactomannan can be used on all weaving machines as well as on all sizing machines such as marksmen, rapier and air jet looms.
- the yarns can be both staple yarns and continuous yarns.
- the yarns can be of natural origin, for example made of cotton or regenerated cellulose, and / or synthetic origin such as cellulose acetate, Polyester, polyacrylonitrile and polyamide. Particularly good results are achieved for cotton and regenerated cellulose and their blends with polyester.
- the size coating of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannan with degrees of substitution below 0.15, alone or in a mixture with the usual sizes, is in the range from 1 to 25% by weight, based on the dry weight of the yarn.
- the amount of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guar galactomannan is therefore in the range from about 1/3 to half of 100 parts of starch size and in the latter case in the range of the known synthetic sizes.
- alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans When using the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans according to the invention, there is an excellent sizing effect. Furthermore, the alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans show an excellent biodegradability, which is even better at these low degrees of substitution than with only slightly more highly substituted guargalactomannans. In addition, alkali salts of carboxymethyl guar galactomannan dissolve quickly and free of lumps in the water, show no signs of skin formation, do not foam in the liquor and can be washed out with water.
- Another object of the present invention is a method for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns in a known manner with alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans, which is characterized in that alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans are used with degrees of substitution below 0.15.
- the application of the alkali salt of carboxymethylguargalactomannans takes place, as is customary for sizing agents, as an aqueous solution with product concentrations of 10 to 150 g / l in the usual sizing machines.
- the viscosity was determined according to Höppler in accordance with DIN 53015.
- the above sodium salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannan were tested, for example according to US-A-2 477 544 or US-A-2 520 161.
- a scrubbing tester was developed to determine the sizing effect and was developed by the TN0, Delft / NL fiber institute.
- the warp yarns were sized on a laboratory sizing machine from Sucker, Mönchengladbach, with 40 threads being sized from the creel.
- Raw white cotton ring yarns with a fineness of Nm 50/1 were routinely used.
- Table 1 summarizes the abrasion resistance found at various sizes (according to DIN 54285), expressed as the number of strokes up to the thread break (median value).

Abstract
Description
Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Verwendung von Alkalisalzen des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15 als Schlichtemittel sowie ein Verfahren zum Schlichten von natürlichen und/ oder synthetischen Garnen unter Einsatz dieser Verbindungen.The present invention relates to the use of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans with degrees of substitution below 0.15 as sizing agents, and to a process for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns using these compounds.
Im Webprozeß werden Schlichtemittel bekanntlich eingesetzt, um dem Kettfaden genügend Festigkeit zu verleihen und andererseits abstehende Fäserchen an den Garnkörper anzukleben beziehungsweise bei Filamentgarnen, um die einzelnen Filamente miteinander zu verkleben. Damit wird die Beanspruchbarkeit des Kettfadens beim Weben erhöht. Altbekannte Schlichtemittel sind native oder modifizierte Stärken, Carboxymethylcelullosen, Polyvinylalkohole und Polyacrylate. Meist müssen die Schlichtemittel nach dem Webprozeß wieder von dem Gewebe entfernt werden, da sie sonst die nachfolgenden Ausrüstungsprozesse stören würden. Eine Möglichkeit der Entfernung der Schlichtemittel ist ein einfaches Auswaschen mit Wasser, was voraussetzt, daß die Schlichtemittel wasserauswaschbar sind. Derartige wasserauswaschbare Schlichtemittel sind insbesondere carboxymethylsubstituierte Stärken, Carboxymethylcellulosen, Polyvinylalkohole und Polyacrylate. Bis auf die carboxymethyl substituierten Stärken zeigen die anderen Schlichtemittel jedoch nur mangelhafte biologische Abbaubarkeit. Die carboxymethylierten Stärken sind zwar gut biologisch abbaubar, lassen aber in ihrer Schlichtewirkung zu wünschen übrig, weshalb sie in hohen Mengen eingesetzt werden müssen, wodurch der Vorteil der guten biologischen Abbaubarkeit zum Teil wieder kompensiert wird.It is known that sizing agents are used in the weaving process in order to give the warp thread sufficient strength and, on the other hand, to stick protruding fibers to the yarn body or, in the case of filament yarns, to bond the individual filaments to one another. This increases the strength of the warp thread during weaving. Well-known sizing agents are native or modified starches, carboxymethylcelulloses, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates. Usually, the sizing agents have to be removed from the fabric again after the weaving process, since they would otherwise interfere with the subsequent finishing processes. One way of removing the sizing agents is to simply wash them out with water, which presupposes that the sizing agents can be washed out with water. Such water-washable sizing agents are, in particular, carboxymethyl-substituted starches, carboxymethyl celluloses, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates. Except for the carboxymethyl-substituted starches, the other sizing agents show only poor biodegradability. The carboxymethylated starches are readily biodegradable, but leave something to be desired in their sizing effect, which is why they have to be used in large quantities, which in part has the advantage of good biodegradability is compensated again.
Die mangelhafte biologische Abbaubarkeit der anderen Schlichtemittel ist deshalb besonders nachteilig, da Schlichtemittel den Hauptanteil an der durch die Textilindustrie verursachten Abwasserverschmutzung ausmachen. So geht man davon aus, daß die Schlichtemittel bis zu 80 % der textilen Abwasserbelastung verursachen. Es hat daher nicht an Versuchen gefehlt, Schlichtemittel mit hoher Effizienz und guter Wasserauswaschbarkeit zur Verfügung zu stellen, die eine verbesserte biologische Abbaubarkeit aufweisen.The poor biodegradability of the other sizing agents is particularly disadvantageous because sizing agents make up the main part of the wastewater pollution caused by the textile industry. It is assumed that the sizing agents cause up to 80% of the textile wastewater pollution. There has been no shortage of attempts to provide sizing agents with high efficiency and good water washability, which have improved biodegradability.
In Melliand Textilberichte 8/1983, 526-529 werden beispielsweise unterschiedliche Galaktomannane unter anderem auch Guargalaktomannane als Schlichtemittel beschrieben. In diesem Artikel werden die Vorteile und Nachteile der Galaktomannanschlichte als auch ihre gute biologische Abbaubarkeit erwähnt. Als Beispiele für Galaktomannanschlichten werden solche des Guargalaktomannans, Tamarindenkernmehls und des Johannisbrotkernmehls (Carubin) aufgeführt. Nun wird aber in dem vorliegenden Artikel behauptet, daß Guargalaktomannanschlichten aufgrund mangelhafter Klebkraft keine vernüftige Alternative zu den bislang verwendeten Schlichten sind. Zum anderen werden in dem Artikel nicht die Carboxymethylderivate des Guargalaktomannans genannt.In Melliand Textile Reports 8/1983, 526-529, for example, different galactomannans, including guar galactomannans, are described as sizing agents. This article mentions the advantages and disadvantages of galactomann size, as well as its good biodegradability. Examples of galactomannic sizing are those of guar galactomannan, tamarind kernel flour and locust bean gum (carubin). Now, however, the present article claims that guar galactomans are not a viable alternative to the sizes used to date due to poor adhesive strength. On the other hand, the carboxymethyl derivatives of guargalactomannans are not mentioned in the article.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es daher, biologisch besser abbaubare Schlichtemittel zur Verfügung zu stellen, die wasserauswaschbar sind, und die zudem zumindest in ihrer Schlichtewirkung vergleichbar oder sogar besser sind als die bislang verwendeten Schlichtemittel wie Carboxymethylcellulose.It was therefore an object of the present invention to provide biodegradable sizing agents which are water-washable and which, at least in their sizing effect, are comparable or even better than the sizing agents used to date, such as carboxymethyl cellulose.
Überraschenderweise wurde gefunden, daß die Aufgabe gelöst werden kann, wenn man Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15 als Schlichtemittel verwendet.Surprisingly, it was found that the object can be achieved if alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannan with degrees of substitution below 0.15 are used as sizing agents.
Eigene Untersuchungen haben nämlich gezeigt, daß spezielle Guargalaktomannanderivate, und zwar die Alkalisalze von carboxymethyliertem Guargalaktomannan dann eine gute Klebkraft und eine gute biologische Abbaubarkeit aufweisen, wenn sie einen niedrigen Substitutionsgrad besitzen.Our own investigations have shown that special guar galactomannan derivatives, namely the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guar galactomannan, have good tack and good biodegradability if they have a low degree of substitution.
Ein Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist daher die Verwendung von Alkalisalzen des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15 als Schlichtemittel zum Schlichten von natürlichen und/oder synthetischen Garnen.An object of the present invention is therefore the use of alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans with degrees of substitution below 0.15 as sizing agents for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns.
Im Sinne der Erfindung werden die Begriffe carboxymethyliertes Guargalaktomannan und Carboxymethylguargalaktomannan synonym gebraucht.For the purposes of the invention, the terms carboxymethylated guar galactomannan and carboxymethyl guar galactomannan are used synonymously.
Guargalaktomannanprodukte werden aus dem Endosperm von Guarsaat hergestellt. Native Guarprodukte bestehen aus Galaktomannanen mit kleinen Mengen von Protein, Faser und Fett sowie sehr geringen Mengen von Alkali- und Erdalkalimetallen, Eisen und einigen Spurenelementen. Die chemische Struktur der Galaktomannane in Guargalaktomannan wird als eine lineare Mannosekette beschrieben, wobei die Mannoseeinheiten durch (1 → 4) - β - glycosidische Bindungen miteinander kondensiert sind, und jede zweite Mannoseeinheit durch Substitution des Wasserstoffs der primären Hydroxylgruppe eine Galaktoseeinheit trägt. Das Galaktosemolekül ist durch eine (1 → 6) - α - glycosidische Bindung mit der Mannanhauptkette verbunden. Die beiden Zuckerbausteine besitzen Hydroxylgruppen in der Cis-Position, im Gegensatz zu Glukose, dem Monomer der Cellulose und der Stärke, das alle Hydroxylgruppen in der Trans-Position haben. Die Cis-Hydroxylgruppen und die gestreckte starre Struktur des Galaktomannans sind der Grund für viele einmalige Eigenschaften von Guargalaktomannan und seinen Derivaten. Guargalaktomannan läßt sich wie andere Polysaccharide modifizieren. Eine Art der Modifizierung ist die Carboxymethylierung, wobei anionische Guargalaktomannanderivate entstehen. Die Carboxymethylierung kann analog den amerikanischen Patentschriften US-A-2 520 161 und US-A-2 477 544 durch Umsetzung des Guargalaktomannans mit einer kalten wäßrigen Lösung von Alkalihydroxiden und anschließendem Behandeln der Alkaliderivate des Guargalaktomannans mit einer halogenierten Fettsäure oder deren Salz erfolgen. Man kann auch mit anderen Carbonsäuren oder deren Salze wie mit Glykolsäure oder mit Natriumglykolat carboxmethylieren. Je nach Einsatzmenge der Reaktanten bzw. Reaktionszeiten und -bedingungen werden unterschiedliche Substitutionsgrade des Guargalaktomannans erhalten. Maximal möglich ist ein Substitutionsgrad von 3. Im Sinne der Erfindung werden besonders solche Alkalisalze des Carboxylmethylguars bevorzugt, die Substitutionsgrade von 0,05 bis 0,15 aufweisen.Guar galactomannan products are made from Guarsaat's endosperm. Native guar products consist of galactomannans with small amounts of protein, fiber and fat as well as very small amounts of alkali and alkaline earth metals, iron and some trace elements. The chemical structure of the galactomannans in guargalactomannan is described as a linear mannose chain, where the mannose units are fused together by (1 → 4) - β - glycosidic bonds, and every second mannose unit carries a galactose unit by substitution of the hydrogen of the primary hydroxyl group. The galactose molecule is connected to the mannan main chain by a (1 → 6) - α - glycosidic bond. The two sugar units have hydroxyl groups in the cis position, in contrast to glucose, the monomer of cellulose and the starch, which all hydroxyl groups have in the trans position. The cis-hydroxyl groups and the elongated rigid structure of the galactomannan are the reason for many unique properties of guargalactomannan and its derivatives. Guargalactomannan can be modified like other polysaccharides. One type of modification is carboxymethylation, which produces anionic guar galactomannan derivatives. The carboxymethylation can be analogous to the American one Patents US-A-2 520 161 and US-A-2 477 544 are carried out by reacting the guar galactomannan with a cold aqueous solution of alkali hydroxides and then treating the alkali derivatives of guar galactomannan with a halogenated fatty acid or its salt. You can also carboxmethylate with other carboxylic acids or their salts such as with glycolic acid or with sodium glycolate. Depending on the amount of reactants used and reaction times and conditions, different degrees of substitution of guar galactomannan are obtained. A maximum degree of substitution of 3 is possible. For the purposes of the invention, preference is given to those alkali metal salts of carboxylmethyl guar which have degrees of substitution from 0.05 to 0.15.
Gemäß der deutschen Patentschrift DE-C-37 09 698 wurde carboxymethyliertes Guargalaktomannan mit Substitutionsgraden von 0,22 in Mischung von Hydroxyalkylguargalaktomannan und Hydroxyalkylcassiagalaktomannan als Schlichtemittel verwendet. Gemäß vorliegender Anmeldung sollen aber Alkalisalze von carboxymethylierten Guargalaktomannan mit niederen Substitutionsgraden verwendet werden, da eigene Versuche gezeigt haben, daß bei ihnen die Klebkraft bedeutend besser und auch die biologische Abbaubarkeit überlegen ist.According to German patent DE-C-37 09 698, carboxymethylated guar galactomannan with degrees of substitution of 0.22 was used as a sizing agent in a mixture of hydroxyalkyl guar galactomannan and hydroxyalkyl casagalactomannan. According to the present application, however, alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guargalactomannan with low degrees of substitution are to be used, since our own experiments have shown that their adhesive strength is significantly better and that their biodegradability is superior.
Guargalaktomannanprodukte zeigen Molekulargewichte, die im Bereich von 0,5 bis 11·106 liegen. Sofern eine Modifizierung wie die Carboxymethylierung erfolgt, werden in der Regel gleichzeitig die Guargalaktomannanprodukte depolymerisiert. Da die Molekulargewichtsbestimmung von solchen Polymeren Schwierigkeiten in der Praxis verursachen kann, ist man dazu übergegangen, anstelle des Molekulargewichtes die mit diesem zusammenhängende Viskosität anzugeben. Einer Ausführungsform der vorliegenden Erfindung entsprechend werden Alkalisalze von oxidativ abgebautem Carboxymethylguargalaktomannan verwendet, die als 4 gew.-%ige wäßrige Lösung eine Viskosität nach Höppler bei 20 °C zwischen 10 und 3000 mPas, vorzugsweise zwischen 20 und 500 mPas, aufweisen.Guar galactomannan products have molecular weights ranging from 0.5 to 11 · 10 6 . If a modification such as carboxymethylation takes place, the guar galactomannan products are generally depolymerized at the same time. Since the molecular weight determination of such polymers can cause difficulties in practice, a move has been made to indicate the viscosity associated with this instead of the molecular weight. According to one embodiment of the present invention, alkali metal salts of oxidatively degraded carboxymethylguargalactomannan are used which, as a 4% strength by weight aqueous solution, have a Höppler viscosity at 20 ° C. between 10 and 3000 mPas, preferably between 20 and 500 mPas.
Bedingt durch die Herstellweise gemäß den schon zitierten beiden amerikanischen Patenten können die Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans Alkalihalogenide als Verunreinigungen enthalten. Bevorzugt im Sinne der Erfindung werden daher Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans verwendet, die Alkalihalogenid-Verunreinigungen unter 10 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise unter 5 Gew.%, aufweisen. Eine Reduktion der Verunreinigungen an Alkalihalogeniden kann auf an und für sich bekannte Weise erfolgen, beispielsweise durch Auswaschen mit einem Methanol/Wasser-Gemisch. Eine weitere Verunreinigung, die nach den obigen Herstellverfahren auftreten können, sind die Salze der Glykolsäuren, die ebenfalls beispielsweise durch Waschen mit einem Methanol/Wasser-Gemisch entfernt werden können.Due to the method of preparation according to the two American patents already cited, the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans can contain alkali metal halides as impurities. For the purposes of the invention, preference is therefore given to using alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans which have alkali halide impurities of less than 10% by weight, preferably less than 5% by weight. The impurities in alkali halides can be reduced in a manner known per se, for example by washing out with a methanol / water mixture. Another impurity that can occur according to the above production processes are the salts of the glycolic acids, which can also be removed, for example, by washing with a methanol / water mixture.
Besonders bevorzugt werden von den Alkalisalzen der Carboxymethylguargalaktomannane das entsprechende Natriumsalz.Of the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans, the corresponding sodium salt is particularly preferred.
Im Sinne der Erfindung können die Alkalisalze des carboxymethylierten Guargalaktomannans alleine oder in beliebiger Abmischung mit üblichen Schlichtemitteln, vorzugsweise mit den Stärkederivaten, Polyvinylalkoholen und Polyacrylaten, verwendet werden. Die Mischungsverhältnisse werden je nach gewünschten Schlichteeigenschaften gewählt und liegen dabei in den für den Fachmann üblichen Mengen.For the purposes of the invention, the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guargalactomannan can be used alone or in any mixture with conventional sizing agents, preferably with the starch derivatives, polyvinyl alcohols and polyacrylates. The mixing ratios are selected depending on the desired size properties and are in the amounts customary for the person skilled in the art.
Die Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans können auf allen Webmaschinen als auch auf allen Schlichtemaschinen wie Schützen-, Greifer- und Luftdüsen-Webmaschinen verwendet werden. Die Garne können im Sinne der Erfindung sowohl Stapelfasergarne als auch Endlosgarne sein. Dabei können die Garne natürlichen Ursprungs sein, beispielsweise aus Baumwolle oder Regeneratcellulose, und/oder synthetischen Ursprungs wie Celluloseacetat, Polyester, Polyacrylnitril und Polyamid. Besonders gute Ergebnisse werden erzielt für Baumwolle und Regeneratcellulose sowie deren Mischungen mit Polyester.The alkali salts of carboxymethyl guar galactomannan can be used on all weaving machines as well as on all sizing machines such as marksmen, rapier and air jet looms. In the sense of the invention, the yarns can be both staple yarns and continuous yarns. The yarns can be of natural origin, for example made of cotton or regenerated cellulose, and / or synthetic origin such as cellulose acetate, Polyester, polyacrylonitrile and polyamide. Particularly good results are achieved for cotton and regenerated cellulose and their blends with polyester.
Die Schlichteauflage an Alkalisalzen des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15 alleine oder in Mischung mit den üblichen Schlichtemitteln liegen in dem Bereich von 1 bis 25 Gew.% - bezogen auf Trockengewicht des Garns -. Die Einsatzmenge an Alkalisalzen des carboxymethylierten Guargalaktomannans liegt damit in dem Bereich von ca. 1/3 bis an die Hälfte von 100 Teilen Stärkeschlichte und bei letzterem damti in dem Bereich der bekannten synthetischen Schlichten.The size coating of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannan with degrees of substitution below 0.15, alone or in a mixture with the usual sizes, is in the range from 1 to 25% by weight, based on the dry weight of the yarn. The amount of alkali metal salts of carboxymethylated guar galactomannan is therefore in the range from about 1/3 to half of 100 parts of starch size and in the latter case in the range of the known synthetic sizes.
Bei Verwendung der erfindungsgemäßen Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans ergibt sich eine ausgezeichnete Schlichtewirkung. Des weiteren zeigen die Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans eine hervorragende biologische Abbaubarkeit, die bei diesen niedrigen Substitutionsgraden noch wesentlich besser ist als bei nur geringfügig höher substituierten Guargalaktomannanen. Des weiteren lösen sich Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans im Wasser schnell und klumpenfrei, zeigen keine Hautbildungserscheinungen, schäumen in der Flotte nicht und sind mit Wasser auswaschbar.When using the alkali metal salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans according to the invention, there is an excellent sizing effect. Furthermore, the alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans show an excellent biodegradability, which is even better at these low degrees of substitution than with only slightly more highly substituted guargalactomannans. In addition, alkali salts of carboxymethyl guar galactomannan dissolve quickly and free of lumps in the water, show no signs of skin formation, do not foam in the liquor and can be washed out with water.
Ein weiterer Gegenstand der vorliegenden Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zum Schlichten von natürlichen und/oder synthetischen Garnen in bekannter Weise mit Alkalisalzen des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß Alkalisalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15 eingesetzt werden. Der Auftrag des Alkalisalzes des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans erfolgt wie für Schlichtemittel üblich als wäßrige Lösung mit Produktkonzentrationen von 10 bis 150 g/l in den üblichen Schlichtemaschinen.Another object of the present invention is a method for sizing natural and / or synthetic yarns in a known manner with alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans, which is characterized in that alkali salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans are used with degrees of substitution below 0.15. The application of the alkali salt of carboxymethylguargalactomannans takes place, as is customary for sizing agents, as an aqueous solution with product concentrations of 10 to 150 g / l in the usual sizing machines.
Die Viskosität wurde nach Höppler gemäß DIN 53015 bestimmt. Getestet wurden die obigen Natriumsalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans, beispielsweise gemäß US-A-2 477 544 oder US-A-2 520 161 herstellbar.The viscosity was determined according to Höppler in accordance with DIN 53015. The above sodium salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannan were tested, for example according to US-A-2 477 544 or US-A-2 520 161.
Zur Bestimmung des Schlichteeffekts wurde ein Scheuertester verwendet, der vom Faserinstitut TN0, Delft/NL entwickelt wurde.A scrubbing tester was developed to determine the sizing effect and was developed by the TN0, Delft / NL fiber institute.
Bei diesem Scheuertester wurden 30 Einzelfaden so eingespannt, daß sie einer kombinierten Beanspruchung aus Faden-Faden- und Faden-Metallreibung unterliegen. Die Umlenkstifte waren auf einer Leiste montiert, die von einem Motor auf- und abbewegt wurde. Ein Anhängegewicht von 50 g sorgte für Zugbeanspruchung. Nach Scheuerung bis zum Bruch aller Fäden, wobei die Anzahl der Scheuertouren bei jedem Fadenbruch erfaßt wurde, wurde der Versuch unter statistischen Gesichtspunkten ausgewertet. Als Maß für den Schlichteeffekt wurde der Median-Wert, der dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß 50 % aller Werte oberhalb und 50 % unterhalt dieses Wertes liegen, genommen.In this abrasion tester, 30 individual threads were clamped in such a way that they are subject to a combined load consisting of thread-thread and thread-metal friction. The deflection pins were mounted on a strip that was moved up and down by a motor. A trailer weight of 50 g ensured for tensile stress. After scrubbing until all threads broke, the number of scrubbing cycles being recorded for each thread break, the test was evaluated from a statistical point of view. The median value, which is characterized in that 50% of all values are above and 50% below this value, was taken as a measure of the size effect.
Die Kettgarne wurden auf einer Laborschlichtmaschine der Fa. Sucker, Mönchengladbach geschlichtet, wobei 40 Fäden ab Gatter geschlichtet wurden. Routinemäßig wurden rohweiße Baumwoll-Ringgarne der Feinheit Nm 50/1 verwendet.The warp yarns were sized on a laboratory sizing machine from Sucker, Mönchengladbach, with 40 threads being sized from the creel. Raw white cotton ring yarns with a fineness of Nm 50/1 were routinely used.
Es lagen folgende Versuchsbedingungen vor:
In Tabelle 1 sind die bei verschiedenen Schlichtegehalten (gemäß DIN 54285) gefundenen Scheuerwiderständen, ausgedrückt als Anzahl der Hübe bis zum Fadenbruch (Median-Wert) zusammengefaßt.
Aus Tabelle 1 ist zu entnehmen, daß das Natriumsalz des carboxymethylierten Guargalaktomannans mit höheren Substitutionsgraden (Vgl. 1) schlechtere Schlichtewirkung bei gleichen bzw. höheren Schlichtegehalten zeigen als solche mit Substitutionsgraden unter 0,15, da nach wenigen Hüben Fadenbruch auftritt. Des weiteren zeigt Tabelle 1, daß die erfindungsgemäßen Natriumsalze des Carboxymethylguargalaktomannans (A1) und A2)) in der Schlichtewirkung dem bislang verwendeten Carboxymethylcellulosederivat Horsil NV-P (eingetragener Handelsname der Fa.Henkel KGaA (Vgl.2)) deutlich überlegen ist.It can be seen from Table 1 that the sodium salt of carboxymethylated guargalactomannan with higher degrees of substitution (see FIG. 1) shows poorer sizing effects at the same or higher sizing contents than those with degrees of substitution below 0.15, since thread breakage occurs after a few strokes. Furthermore, Table 1 shows that the sodium salts of carboxymethylguargalactomannans (A1) and A2)) according to the invention in the Sizing effect is clearly superior to the previously used carboxymethyl cellulose derivative Horsil NV-P (registered trade name of Henkel KGaA (cf. 2)).
Es wurde ein Kurzzeit Zahn-Wellens-Test (ZWT) zur Bestimmung der biologischen Abbaubarkeit durchgeführt. Testmatrix ist aufgehärtetes destilliertes Wasser, zu dem eine ca. 1 g/l Trockenmasse entsprechende Menge Naßschlamm gegeben wurde. Inkubiert wurde 7 Tage bei 19 bis 25 °C unter Rühren und ständiger Luftzufuhr. Es wurden regelmäßige DOC-Bestimmungen durchgeführt. In Tabelle 2 sind die Ergebnisse für A1) und Vgl. 1) zusammengefaßt.
Aus Tabelle 2 ist ersichtlich, daß die erfindungsgemäß verwendeten Verbindungen sich sehr viel besser abbauen lassen, als die etwas höher substituierten Guargalaktomannanderivate.From Table 2 it can be seen that the compounds used according to the invention can be broken down much better than the somewhat more highly substituted guar galactomannan derivatives.
