Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a continuous process of finishing with or without tension of textile materials by passing them in a microwave field and contact with a surface capable of being heated.
  • the invention also relates to an installation implementing said method.
  • the present invention aims to provide a textile finishing process to reduce water pollution at the source by limiting the consumption of water, energy and dyeing auxiliaries.
  • the deposition step comprises a step of impregnating said textile material in a bath containing the reagents necessary for the treatment and a squeezing step until a given carry rate is obtained.
  • the textile material is impregnated with reagents and expressed in order to obtain a transport rate of between 40 and 200%.
  • the deposition step comprises a step of printing said textile material.
  • the power of the microwave radiation is a function of the weight of fabric treated and is between 0.8 and 3 kWh per kg of treated textile material.
  • the residence time of said textile material in the enclosure being of the order of 60s to 240s. These durations can be modulated according to the quality and nature of the material.
  • the temperature of said heatable surface can be brought to 210 ° C.
  • the present invention relates to a textile finishing process that significantly reduces the amount of water and energy used, the duration of treatment and the discharge of effluents.
  • Textile finishing which includes all the treatments that can be done to a textile to improve its appearance or its properties, is divided into three parts: pre-treatments, dyeing and post-treatments .
  • the pre-treatments are intended to prepare the textiles to make them white, able to be dyed or to give them special properties.
  • the process according to the invention also makes it possible to carry out various post-treatments such as: drying, primer, softening.
  • the process according to the invention can be used for the preparation, dyeing, printing and after-treatment of all natural, artificial and synthetic textile materials.
  • the textile material is, firstly, immersed according to the type of operation in a bath containing the products necessary for the chosen treatment: scouring, bleaching, dyeing, wet primer.
  • the baths used may be those derived from dye cards with quantities adapted to very short bath ratios.
  • the textile material After its impregnation, the textile material is expressed in order to obtain a load factor of between 40 and 200%.
  • auxiliary dyeing products such as carriers, dispersants, unison agents, wetting agents, performance agents, antifoam, urea, have been removed from the baths through the use of microwaves.
  • the textile material is first printed by a printing paste or by inks to form patterns.
  • the textile material is then introduced into an enclosure inside which microwave radiation is applied.
  • the microwave field is generated by one or more magnetrons of known type in order to obtain a sufficient power as a function of the quantity of textile to be treated and at the desired speed (required energy of the electromagnetic radiation between 0.8 and 3 kWh per kg of material).
  • the duration of microwave treatments can range from 60 to 240 seconds.
  • the textile material is brought into contact, within the enclosure, with the outer surface of a rotating cylinder that can be heated, while being exposed to microwave radiation.
  • the textile material travels at a known speed, depending on the length of the path in the enclosure.
  • the textile material is brought into contact inside the enclosure with a heated surface at a temperature between 40 and 210 ° C depending on the type of treatment of the nature of the textile to be treated.
  • the process of the invention is carried out without said surface being heated, its temperature being that ambient (between 20 and less than 40 ° C.). This case applies in particular to the dyeing of cotton in direct dyes.
  • the residence time of the textile material in the enclosure which corresponds to the time of application of the microwave radiation, is between 60 and 240 s.
  • the method of the invention also comprises a step of extracting the water vapor formed inside the enclosure during the application of the microwave radiation. This is achieved by means of water vapor suction means such as a vacuum system.
  • the method may also include a stirring of the microwave radiation inside the enclosure to prevent the appearance of standing waves.
  • the process is suitable for the application of both chemical treatments (preparation and post-treatment of textiles) and dyestuffs.
  • These textiles can be in various forms: yarns, yarns, fabrics, nonwovens, felts and knits. Dyes or prints made using this process for all the usual classes of dyes and all kinds of fibers.
  • cellulosic fibers As regards the treatment of cellulosic fibers, it takes into account materials made of regenerated cellulose and natural cellulose. Thus, for example, viscose, hemp, flax, jute and cotton can be processed, but also mixtures of materials such as the cotton / polyester / elastane blend.
  • the bleaching of the cellulosic materials is carried out in the presence of an oxidizing agent (hydrogen peroxide), an alkaline agent (pH between 9 and 11) and a stabilizing agent for hydrogen peroxide.
  • an oxidizing agent hydrogen peroxide
  • an alkaline agent pH between 9 and 11
  • a stabilizing agent for hydrogen peroxide In order to obtain a higher degree of whiteness, it is possible to add optical brighteners to the whitening bath or to azure the material after bleaching.
  • the dyeing of cellulosic materials can be carried out with dyes such as direct dyes, reactive dyes. Other dyes such as sulfur dyes may be, after modification, used.
  • the dyeing with the reactive dyes is carried out in an alkaline medium.
  • the bath must be in a range of pH between 9 and 12. The use of a yield agent is most of the time necessary.
  • the sulfur dyes are introduced into the impregnation bath in their soluble form.
  • the bath contains a reducing agent to keep them in this form and an alkaline agent to have a pH of between 10 and 12.
  • the amount of dye introduced into the bath is a function of the desired height of the tone and the solubility limit of each of them under the operating conditions.
  • the bath may contain an alkaline agent, in order to obtain a pH of between 8.5 and 9.5 and a suitable detergent agent.
  • Natural polyamides may require bleaching.
  • the oxidizing bleaching bath contains an oxidizing agent such as hydrogen peroxide, an alkaline agent and a stabilizer.
  • the reducing bleaching bath contains a reducing agent such as sodium hydrosulfite. These bleaching agents are introduced in a variable amount into the treatment bath depending on the type of polyamide treated.
  • the dyeing of polyamides can be carried out with anionic dyes such as acid dyes, metallics 1/1 and 1/2, and reactive dyes. Dyeing is carried out in acidic medium (pH between 3 and 7). Synthetic polyamides can be dyed with cationic or disperse dyes.
  • the process also relates to dyeing the mixtures. It is thus possible to treat, for example, materials made of cotton and polyester or wool and polyester or any other mixture.
  • the method further enables the treatment of elastane-containing materials.
