Definitions

  • the present invention relates to textile articles and clothing such as outdoor garments, indoor garments exposed to aqueous liquid, swim wear, shoes, leather, hats, textile sun roofs for cars, sun blinds or awnings which have at least part of their surface provided with super hydrophobicity.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,498,527 teaches that paper board containers for liquids can be waterproofed by application of a waterproofing coating such as wax or polyethylene, and a similar method is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 2,708,645 for waterproofing paper drinking cups and in U.S. Pat. No. 3,212,697 for paper grocery sacks.
  • a waterproofing coating such as wax or polyethylene
  • temporary wet strength is imparted to paper by coating it with a polymeric alcohol-polymeric aldehyde reaction product.
  • a disposable sanitary napkin which consists of an adsorbent layer having a liquid-repellent backing of polyvinyl alcohol or similar material capable of initially repelling water but eventually solubilizing.
  • the degree of water-repellency therefore the lifetime of the napkin, is controlled by varying the thickness of the backing. Because the necessary life of the napkin cannot be predicted by manufacturer or user, the backing must be sufficiently thick to take account of all normal contingencies.
  • 3,542,028 is directed to a fiushable sanitary napkin consisting of a cellulosic sheet treated with a fluoropolymer coating.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,559,650 teaches the preparation of a sanitary napkin having two flush-disposable sides separated by a waterproof film too thin to support itself once both faces of the napkin have disintegrated upon disposal.
  • Analogous to the process of coating a surface with a waterproofing substance is the concept of reacting a surface with another material so as to form a reaction product on the surface which has water-repellent properties.
  • U.S. Pat. Nos. 2,130,212 and 3,137,540 teach that materials such as polymeric alcohols may be reacted with other materials to increase their water-repellent properties.
  • the latter patent teaches treating polyvinyl alcohol articles with an aqueous emulsion of an aldehyde to impart water-repellency thereto.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 3,626,943 teaches that disposable diapers can be made from polyvinyl alcohol and waterproofed on one side by reaction with formaldehyde.
  • a known method of water and oil repellent finishing of textiles includes plasma treatment in a glow discharge in an atmosphere of inorganic gases, followed by treatment with a fluorine containing acrylic monomer in gas phase.
  • Another prior method of achieving film plasma polymerization described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,188,426, includes treatment in a glow discharge of per-fluoro-cyclo-butane or hexafluoroethane to reduce the friction coefficient and to improve the surface hydrophobia of organic and inorganic textile substrates (e.g. polyethylene films, metals).
  • these disclosures do not achieve a level of water repellency as the present invention.
  • Plasma-deposited fluorocarbon coatings are often cited in the literature as "teflon- like coatings" because their CFx (0 ⁇ x ⁇ 2) composition and surface energy can be made very close to that of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE,-(CF 2 -CF -) n ), known on the market as Teflon®.
  • PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene
  • Plasma coating processes of metals, polymers, and other textile substrates, with fluorocarbon films are known in the art. As an example, it is known from USP
  • Glow discharges treatments are also considered in US-A-5 462 781 for improving the bondability of an implantable polymer medical device or for changing the wettability of a polymer fabric.
  • Several of the references discussed in this patent confirm non modulated, continuous plasma treatments as a means for varying the inherent WCA of a surface.
  • US-A-5 034 265 discloses a non modulated, continuous plasma treatment for improving the biocompatibility of vascular grafts with a CF X fluorocarbon coating deposited at the inside wall ,, of the grafts in a proper plasma reactor fed with tetrafluoroethylene (C 2 F , TFE) at 0.2 Torr. In the preferred embodiment of the invention no other materials are interposed between the substrate and the coating.
  • U.S. Pat No 5,328,576 discloses a method for imparting water and oil repellent surface properties to fabrics or paper that includes pretreatment in a low pressure oxygen plasma in the presence of water vapor followed by plasma polymerization of methane in a high frequency glow discharge carried out in the same treatment chamber. This method doesn't deliver durable, permanent coatings with a WCA higher than about 120°.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,262,208 discloses an gas plasma treatment for archival preservation of paper manuscripts by a thin film protective polymer film.
  • the treatment time is ranging from 30-3600 seconds.
  • Other methods have been used to obtain thin coatings on the web materials with short treatment periods.
  • Providing surface treatment is disclosed in US Patent No. 4,842,893 and 4,954,371 which describe a process for high speed coating of substrates with a complete and uniformly adhering layer and using electron beam radiation curing of the vapor deposited monomers for multilayer capacitators.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 4,842,893 discloses high speed coating process including flash vaporization system and electron beam curing. Both of these electron beam disclosures are incorporated herein by reference.
  • Other uses of electron beam coatings in the electronic industry field have been reported by Westinghouse science & technology center USA (Adv. Mat. Newsletter Volume 13, No 9, 1991 page 4).
  • the present invention relates to textile articles or clothing referred to herein after as textiles, such as outdoor garments, indoor fabrics which are exposed to aqueous liquid such as bed mattresses, carpets, bathroom rugs or the like, swim wear, shoes, leather, hats, textile sun roofs for cars, sun blinds or awnings having at least part of the surface treated to have super hydrophobicity.
  • the present invention relates to textiles which are coated by means of modulated plasma deposition of fluorocarbons.
  • the present invention having the features mentioned in the annexed claims, relates to textiles having at least part of their surface coated with a thin, well adherent, nonporous, fluorocarbon coating with super hydrophobic properties, i.e.
  • WCA static water contact angle
  • textiles being treated with this method have their hydrophobicity markedly improved. They can for example provide improvements in water repellency, soil/dirt sticking prevention, reduced build-up on surface or not detrimental to water vapour/ air permability.
  • the present invention deals with textiles having their surface treated i.e. characterized by static water contact angle (WCA) values higher than about 120°, preferably higher than 130°, more preferably higher than 150°.
  • WCA static water contact angle
  • the textile substrates of interest for the present invention may include a wide range of materials in form of webs, tapes, fiims, animal skin like leather or fur, woven and non-woven layers; they can be porous or non-porous, rigid or flexible, made of polymers, natural or synthetic fibers, leather, biodegradable materials, or any conventional material used in making textiles or products comprising textiles for outside use.
  • such substrate materials could be fabricated from polyethylene, polyacrylics, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyamides, polystyrene, polyurethanes, polyfiuorocarbons, polyesters, silicone rubber, hydrocarbon rubbers, polycarbonates and other synthetic polymers.
  • a particularly preferred polymeric substrate is polyethylene or polypropylene as used e.g. in the manufacture of non-woven textile substrates.
  • the textiles are preferably subjected to a modulated glow discharge plasma treatment performed with a fluorocarbon gas or vapor compound fed in a properly configured reactor vessel where the textiles are positioned.
  • the plasma process deposits a continuous, fluorocarbon thin film with super hydrophobic surface characteristics, tightly bound to the surface of the textiles.
  • a more conventional thin film coating process followed by high energy sur ace curing can be used.
  • This is the method of using a high speed vacuum coating process for producing durable and thin water-repellent coatings on a textile substrate. It uses e.g. a movable support such as rotating drum in a vacuum chamber. The surface of the support is maintained at a temperature sufficient to permit condensation of a vaporized material deposited in the chamber.
  • the material is a curable monomer with a relatively low molecular weight.
  • the monomer vapor is created using a flash vaporizer.
  • the desired amount of curable monomer is metered to a heated flash vaporizer system where the material is vaporized. It is then transported e.g.
  • the textile substrate is then transported to a curing means such as an energy source which emits an electron beam, UV- light radiation or exposure to an electro magnetic field.
  • a curing means such as an energy source which emits an electron beam, UV- light radiation or exposure to an electro magnetic field.
  • the curable monomer can also be transferred into radicals by passing through a plasma zone (zone of high voltage discharge).
  • the curing of the monomer by the curing means then provides a coating on the textile substrate surface which has a static water contact angle of more than 120°.
  • the method for delivering the curable monomer to the textile substrate for minimizing the amount of monomers can use an ultrasonic atomizer producing micro droplets of curable monomer. They are released into a vaporization tube heated by band heaters. The atomized droplets impinge on the inner wall of the vaporization tube and are instantaneously vaporized, i.e., flash vaporized. This reduces the opportunity for polymerization prior to being deposited on the textile substrate.
  • the textile substrate can be one side water- repellent or alternatively be repellent on both sides.
  • “Plasma,” as used herein, is used in the sense of "low-temperature plasma” or “cold plasma” produced by igniting a glow discharge in a low pressure gas through a power supply.
  • Glow discharges contain a variety of species chemically active and energetic enough to catise chemical reactions with surfaces exposed, i.e. covalent bonding to a suitable substrate material.
  • Cold plasmas, or glow discharges are generally produced with high frequency (from KHz to MHz and GHz) power supply (HF plasmas). Electrons, positive and negative ions, atoms, excited molecules, free radicals, and photons of various energies are formed in a cold plasma.
  • Modemated plasma means a non continuos plasma, HF plasma, i.e. a glow discharge whose driving power is pulsed between a maximum value and zero
  • ON/OFF pulse or a fraction of it, at a certain frequency, with a proper pulse generator connected to the main power supply.
  • ON/OFF pulsed systems the time ON and time OFF values are among the experimental parameters of the process.
  • superimposing a triggering ON/OFF pulse to the main high frequency field which generally drives a glow discharge alternates short continuous discharges with plasma OFF time intervals where active species still exists in the gas phase, but the effects of ions and electrons are strongly reduced.
  • Plasma deposition or “plasma polymerization” is the plasma process that leads to the formation of thin (0.01 - 2 ⁇ m), partly crosslinked, void-free, continuous coatings well adherent to substrates.
  • the molecules of the gas phase are fragmented by energetic electrons, which are able to break chemical bonds; this process leads to radicals and other chemical species which are able to deposit at surfaces inside the vacuum chamber and form a thin, uniform film.
  • the action of the plasma may also affect the surface of a polymer substrate in the early deposition time; energetic species may break bonds in the substrate with possible evolution of gas products, such as hydrogen, and formation of free radical sites which contribute to form covIER bonds between the growing film and the substrate.
  • the present invention thus refers to textiles with fluorocarbon films characterized by a WCA value higher than 120°, preferably higher than 130°, more preferably higher than 150°.
  • fluorocarbon coatings with F/C ratio from about 1.50 to about 2.00 deposited on different substrates and characterized by WCA values higher than about 120°, such as between about 155° and about 165° find useful application in textiles, especially if the coatings have been deposited at the surface of different polymer substrates such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) polyethyleneterephtalate (PET), in form of films and/ or nonwovens.
  • PE polyethylene
  • PP polypropylene
  • PET polyethyleneterephtalate
  • the F/C ratio could be theoretically up to 3, if the coating would be formed only by a mono-molecular layer of CF 3 groups.
  • the thickness of the coatings depends on the duration of the plasma process at different conditions, and can be kept between 0.01 and 2 ⁇ m. It has been found that the nature of the substrate materials does not influence the chemical composition or the thickness of the coatings. Coatings with WCA values up to about 165° (e.g. 165° ⁇ 5°) were obtained.
  • Textiles to be treated are subjected to modulated plasma gas discharge in the presence of at least one fluorocarbon gas or vapor.
  • fluorocarbon gases or vapors such as tetrafluoroethylene (TFE,C F 4 ), hexafluoropropene (HFP,C 3 F 6 ), perfiuoro-(2-trifluoromethyl-)pentene, perfluoro-(2-methylpent-2-ene) or its trimer may be used, TFE being the presently preferred choice.
  • the plasma deposition process is preferably performed by positioning the textile in a properly arranged plasma reactor, connecting the reactor to a source of a fluorocarbon gas or vapor, regulating flow and pressure of the gas inside the reactor, and sustaining a glow discharge in the reactor with a high frequency electric field in a pulsed (modulated) mode by means of a suitable pulsed power supply.
  • the parameters which define the glow discharge treatment includes the feed gas or vapor, its flow rate, its pressure, the position of the textile inside the reactor, the design of the reactor, the exciting frequency of the power supply, the input power, the time ON and the time OFF of the pulsing system.
  • Textiles may be positioned in the "glow" region of the discharge, i.e. directly exposed to the plasma, or in the "afterglow” region, i.e. downstream in respect to the visible glow. The two positions generally result in coatings with different composition and properties; treating the textiles with modulated glow discharge results also in different coatings respect to continuous treatments.

  • the reactor 1 schematically shown in figure 2 was utilized not exclusively for developing the deposition method object of the present invention.
  • the reactor vacuum chamber 1 is made of Pyrex glass, is provided with an external RF powered electrode 2 and an internal grounded electrode 3.
  • the external electrode is connected to a power supply 4 (typically a radiofrequency generator operating at e.g. 13.56 MHz) through a matching network and an ON/OFF pulse generator 5.
  • the textiles can be treated in the "glow” region of the reactor, onto the grounded electrode 3, as well as in its "afterglow” position i.e. at an afterglow textile holder 6.

  • the glow discharges are modulated through the pulse generator, preferably at 1-500 ms time ON and 1-1000 ms time OFF values, with respective values of about 10 ms and about 190 ms being the most preferred choice at present.
  • the deposition process may range from a few seconds to many hours; during this time a uniform fluorocarbon coating is deposited on the textiles positioned in the glow as well as on those in the afterglow region.
  • the deposition rate a typical one being in the 20 - 400 A/min range, was measured by weighing (weight/time) the textiles before and after the discharge, or by measuring the thickness of the coatings (thickness/time) with an Alpha Step profiiometer.
  • the deposition rate and the chemical composition of the coating depend on the experimental conditions (pressure, power, textile position, time ON, time OFF, gas feed and flow rate) of the discharge.
  • the coatings obtained are uniform over the entire surface of the textile: when deposited on flat (i.e. plane), smooth substrates, their hydrophobic character has been estimated through their static WCA value, as measured with a WCA goniometer. The measurement is done on a flat, i.e. plane, and smooth surface of a substrate after coating.
  • the term smooth as used herein for water contact angle measurements refers to a roughness of no more than 5 microns in accordance with standard roughness measurements on continuous surfaces.
  • WCA values in the range about 120° to about 165°, corresponding to a critical surface tension lower than that of PTFE (18 dynes/cm) have been measured for fluorocarbon CFx coatings, when x ranges between about 1.50 and about 2.00.

  • the coating formed by the method of the present invention has a thickness of less than 5 microns, and preferably less than 2 microns and most preferably in the range of 0.001 to 1 microns.
  • the coatings are formed by depositing a vapor of curable monomer, under vacuum, on a movable textile substrate which is mounted in thermal contact with a support, for continuos processing preferably a rotating drum, which is maintained at a temperature below the boiling point of the vaporized monomer under the environmental conditions in vacuum chamber . As a result of this temperature differential, the monomer vapor condenses on the surface of the textile substrate.

  • Textiles according to the present invention are providing usually several functions. For one they are protective to the respective wearer. In addition they need to provide comfort and preferably should be such that they do not require special efforts for cleaning and maintenance.
  • the coating according to the present invention does not alter the water vapour and (if present) v airpermeability of the textiles but reduces or even eliminates the possibility of liquid water to pass through. This is achieved by several means.
  • First of all the hydrophobic coating as such reduces the contact surface between a drop of water and the textile due to the surface tension of the liquid.
  • typically such textiles have no absolute horizontal surfaces and use gravitational force to allow liquid to run off. With the superhydrophobic coating according to the present invention this run off is drastically accelerated such that time during which an amount of liquid could penetrate into the textile is reduced. At the same time such textiles will also dry much faster. Especially when accepting that they become wet, as e.g.
  • the superhydrophobic coating will cause a substantially faster drying and even render changing of the wet clothes superfluous.
  • children's swim suits should usually be removed in order to prevent longer term kidney or urinary problems or sand/soil clinging to wet parts of the suit.
  • swim suits using superhydrophobic coating do not require this any longer.
  • liquid which remains on the surface contains usually a certain amount of solid material which after evaporation of the water remains on the textile surface. With an increase probability of run off of such liquids the amount of deposited residue on the textiles surface is also reduced to the superhydrophobic coating.
