Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for modifying fibers and also to modified fibers.
  • the method of modifying fibers by coverage with viscose-derived, regenerated fibers includes the steps of applying to fibers a solution, i.e., viscose, obtained by dissolving in a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution cellulose xanthate which is prepared by degenerating cellulose with highly toxic carbon disulfide, and subsequently coagulating and regenerating the cellulose.
  • a solution i.e., viscose
  • the method needs not only the dissolution of cellulose in a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution at low temperature, but also the use of cellulose of the type which has a reduced degree of crystal structure sufficient to increase solubility, e.g. cellulose that is obtained by acid hydrolyzing wood pulp and grinding it in a ball mill, or regenerated cellulose that is prepared from viscose, thus imposing restrictions thereon.
  • cellulose of the type which has a reduced degree of crystal structure sufficient to increase solubility e.g. cellulose that is obtained by acid hydrolyzing wood pulp and grinding it in a ball mill, or regenerated cellulose that is prepared from viscose, thus imposing restrictions thereon.
  • US 4,341 , 669 describes a polyester textile product having antistatic and soil release properties and a method for producing this product.

  • EP 0 426 304 A1 describes a fabric treatment composition, in particular for softening fabrics, which comprises a polysiloxane treatment agent and a water-soluble nonionic cellulose ether.
  • a fabric treatment composition in particular for softening fabrics, which comprises a polysiloxane treatment agent and a water-soluble nonionic cellulose ether.
  • One of the features of the cellulose ether component is that it contains substantially no hydroxyalkyl groups.
  • fiber modifying finish is enabled by a procedure which comprises adding a crosslinking agent and/or an aqueous resin emulsion to an aqueous solution of a cellulose ether having such a low degree of substitution that a molar degree of substitution with an alkyl group and/or a hydroxyalkyl group ranges from 0.05 to 1.3, applying the resulting solution onto fibers, coagulating the applied solution with an acid for coagulation, and thermally treating the resulting fibers.
  • another procedure may also be used, which comprises adding a crosslinking agent and/or an aqueous resin emulsion to an alkali aqueous solution dissolving a cellulose ether having a low degree of substitution, applying the resulting solution onto fibers, subjecting the fibers to heating treatment and then neutralizing with an acid.
  • the resulting modified fibers are improved in washing resistance, have no problem on carbon disulfide, are prevented from fluffing, and have high tensile strength and excellent wear resistance, static resistance and water absorption.
  • a method for modifying fibers comprising steps of adding a crosslinking agent and/or an aqueous resin emulsion to an aqueous solution of an alkali dissolving therein a cellulose ether having such a low degree of substitution that a molar degree of substitution with an alkyl group and/or a hydroxyalkyl group ranges 0.05 to 1.3, applying the resulting solution to fibers, neutralizing the applied solution with an acid for coagulation, and thermally treating the fibers.

  • a modified fiber article which includes fibers individually covered with a cellulose ether having such a low degree of substitution that a molar degree of substitution with a hydroxyalkyl group or an alkyl group and a hydroxyalkyl group ranges from 0.05 to 1.3, and also with a crosslinked product and/or an aqueous emulsion-derived resin component.
  • modified fibers without an appreciable problem on safety because of no use of a toxic solvent such as carbon disulfide and without involving a complicated step of dissolution.
  • modified fibers can be appropriately prevented from fluffing or fuzzing, and have high tensile strength and excellent wear resistance, static resistance and water absorption.
  • the modified fibers obtained according to the invention have good air permeability, a smooth feeling, and a solid touch with good resilience.
  • the fibers used in the invention are not critical in type.
  • the fibers include synthetic fibers such as polyethylene fibers, polypropylene fibers, polyester fibers, nylon fibers, acrylic fibers, vinylon fibers, rayon fibers, polyvinyl chloride fibers, and polyvinylidene chloride fibers; natural fibers such as of cotton, cellulose, and hemp; and animal fibers such as of wool, silk, and cashmere.
  • the term "fibers" used herein include thread-shaped fibers, woven fabrics or textiles of thread-shaped fibers, or non-woven fabrics or textiles of thread-shaped fibers.

Tf the molar degree of substitution is lower than 0.05, such a cellulose ether is unlikely to dissolve in an alkali aqueous solution. On the contrary, when the molar degree exceeds 1.3, dissolution in water increases with a decrease in solubility in an alkali solution.
  • the cellulose ether of a low degree of substitution is referred as a low-substituted cellulose ether hereinafter.
  • Examples of the cellulose ether of a low degree of substitution include low-substituted alkyl celluloses such as low-substituted methyl cellulose, and low-substituted ethyl cellulose; low-substituted hydroxyalkyl celluloses such as low-substituted hydroxyethyl cellulose, and low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose; low-substituted hydroxyalkylalkyl celluloses such as low-substituted hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, low-substituted hydroxyethylmethyl cellulose, and low-substituted hydroxyethylethyl cellulose. Of these, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose is preferred.
  • a first procedure comprises adding a crosslinking agent and/or an aqueous resin emulsion to an aqueous solution of an alkali dissolving therein a low-substituted cellulose ether as mentioned above, applying the solution to fibers by coating or dipping, if necessary, removing an excessive applied solution from the fibers by a suitable means such as a centrifugal dehydrator, a mangle, a knife coater or the like, coagulating the applied solution by neutralization with an acid, and thermally treating the resulting fibers after washing with water and drying, if necessary.
  • a second procedure comprises adding a crosslinking agent and/or an aqueous resin emulsion to an aqueous solution of an alkali dissolving therein a low-substituted cellulose ether as mentioned above, applying the solution to fibers by coating or dipping, if necessary, removing an excessive applied solution from the fibers by a suitable means such as a centrifugal dehydrator, a mangle, a knife coater or the like, thermally treating the fibers, neutralizing an alkali left in the fibers with an acid, and drying the fibers.
  • the crosslinking reaction and the cured film formation from the aqueous resin emulsion proceed in the course of the thermally treating step.

  • the alkali aqueous solutions include a sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, and a potassium hydroxide aqueous solution.
  • concentration of the caustic alkali depends on the type of substituent of a low-substituted cellulose ether used and the degree of substitution and may be appropriately determined. In general, the concentration ranges from 2 to 25% by weight, preferably from 3 to 15% by weight. If the concentration is smaller than 2% by weight the low-substituted cellulose ether may not be dissolved in some case. On the other hand, if the concentration exceeds 25% by weight, a solution of the low-substituted cellulose ether becomes gelled, with some possibility that a difficulty is involved in coating or dipping operation.

If the concentration is smaller than 1% by weight, little effect of improving the hand of fibers is expected. Over 20% by weight, the resulting solution becomes too high in viscosity, so that the solution may be unlikely to be attached to the fibers in a given amount throughout the fibers.
  • the solution can be coated by use of coaters such as a blade coater, a transfer coater, an air doctor coater and the like.
  • coaters such as a blade coater, a transfer coater, an air doctor coater and the like.

If the pickup is smaller than 10% by weight, a coverage of fibers with a low-substituted cellulose ether becomes small, with the possibility that a satisfactory effect of modifying the fibers cannot be expected.
  • a pickup i.e., [amount of an applied low-substituted cellulose ether solution/weight of fiber substrate] ⁇ 100, is in the range of 10 to 500% by weight, preferably 20 to 300% by weight.
