Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of comb polymers in textile pretreatment, in particular in textile finishing and corresponding agents.
  • the comb polymers used according to the invention are obtainable by A) a free-radical polymerization of monoethylenically unsaturated monomers a group A1) monoethylenically unsaturated acids and their salts and a group A2) monoethylenically unsaturated polyethers.
  • Detergents and cleaners contain surfactants as indispensable ingredients for the washing and cleaning process.
  • the surfactants as a main component influence primarily the result of the To assist the washing performance, a variety of laundry aids, such as builders to mask the water hardness, graying and color transfer inhibitors, foam regulators, bleaching agents and bleach activators in household washing and cleaning agents are already used today.
  • Such excipients also include substances which enhance the detergency of the surfactants. Such substances are often referred to as "soil-release" agents or detergency boosters. As a rule, such substances themselves have no pronounced surfactant properties.
  • Hydrophobic polymers consisting of styrene, methacrylic acid, hydroxyethyl methacrylate and methyl methacrylate are known, which show a very good dirt-removing effect especially on cotton-containing textiles.
  • the EP 2 065 403 A1 discloses the preparation of polymers via esterification of polyacrylic acids with end-capped polyols or amines.
  • a potential application as Builder component for hardness masking in liquid household detergents called.
  • JPH03185184 such as JP 2005 187 742
  • Detergents for textile pretreatment such as desizing, scouring, bleaching and soaps are disclosed which contain methoxy-PEG-methacrylate / (meth) acrylic acid copolymers.
  • US 2005/0113541 discloses polymers as a builder substance in detergents containing acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, acrylic acid PEG esters and polyamine polyethers.
  • sulfonic acid-containing copolymers consist of at least one monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, at least one monomer containing sulfonic acid groups and at least one nonionic monomer are formed and should be used as an additive to detergents and cleaners.
  • the process conditions in the textile pretreatment of natural or synthetic fibers or mixtures thereof are fundamentally different from the conditions of household laundry.
  • textile finishing processes in the strongly acidic range such as the “acid demineralization” at a pH of about 2
  • strongly alkaline processes such as "alkaline boiling", “cold bleaching” and “pad-steam bleaching” at pH Values from 13 to 14 are performed.
  • the treatment temperatures in the textile pretreatment also differ significantly from those which are usual in household washing.
  • the majority of the finishing processes are carried out at approx. 95 to 100 ° C. In some countries, high-temperature bleaching at 110 ° C is favored.
  • the types of dirt are also fundamentally different from the types of household waste.
  • the natural In textile pretreatment, the natural must Adjacent substances such as fats, waxes and the preparations used for the production of the synthetic fibers or textile fabrics, such as knitting oils and sizes, are removed.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the disadvantages described above with regard to insufficient effectiveness for the textile pretreatment of natural or synthetic fibers or mixtures thereof. It is intended to provide polymers which effectively support surfactants and thereby enable a reduced amount of surfactants to be used for optimum washing and cleaning performance.
  • the alkaline bleaching processes are carried out at pH values between 10 and 14 and temperatures between 80 and 130 ° C.
  • the cleaning performance is checked after the bleaching process by a good and uniform hydrophilicity (absorbency) of the cotton.
  • the invention is therefore based, in particular, on the problem of providing polymers having an excellent washing-power-enhancing effect under these conditions.
  • Another object is for the washing of elastane-containing materials (mesh or woven fabric) a polymer which effectively removes the silicone oil used for production and stably emulsifies in the washing solution.
  • the comb polymers used according to the invention thus contain the components A1 + A2 in the first embodiment.
  • the monoethylenically unsaturated acids and their salts include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, itaconic acid, vinylsulfonic acid, allylsulfonic acid, methallylsulfonic acid, 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, Vinylphosphonic.
  • the monomers of group A1 can be used individually or as a mixture of different monomers in an amount of 5 to 95 wt .-%, in particular with an amount of 10 to 90 wt .-% based on the polymer. Preference is given to acrylic acid, methacrylic acid and maleic acid and particular preference is given to acrylic acid or methacrylic acid.
  • the monoethylenically unsaturated polyethers include polyethylene glycol monoallyl ether, polypropylene glycol monoallyl ether and polyethylene-polypropylene monoallyl ether; these are commercially available, for example, from Clariant under the Polyglykol® A product line and from BASF under the Pluriol® A ... R product line. Further examples include polyethylene glycol monovinyl ether (product series from Clariant: Polyglycol® R), isoprenyl ethoxylates (product series from BASF: Pluriol® A ... I) and vinyloxybutyl ethoxylates (product series from BASF: Pluriol® A ... V).
  • the monomers of group A2 can be used individually or as a mixture of different monomers in an amount of from 2 to 25% by weight, based on the polymer, in particular in an amount of from 5 to 20% by weight, based on the polymer.
  • Polyalkyl glycol monoallyl ethers are preferred, and polyethylene glycol monoallyl ether and polyethylene-polypropylene monoallyl ether are particularly preferred.
  • the use according to the invention can be carried out as part of a washing, decoction, enzyme, desizing, demineralization or bleaching process in a continuous or discontinuous production process such that the comb polymer is added separately to a detergent-containing liquor, or the comb polymer as a constituent of the detergent in bring in the fleet.
  • Another object of the invention is therefore a detergent for the textile pretreatment of natural or synthetic fibers or mixtures thereof, which contains 0.1 to 20 wt .-%, in particular 0.5 to 15 wt .-%, of a corresponding comb polymer.
  • Detergents containing the comb polymer used in the invention may contain all the usual ingredients of such agents which do not undesirably interact with it.
  • such a detergent contains surfactants, such as fatty alcohol alkoxylates, fatty acid alkoxylates, fatty alkyl polyglycosides, fatty amine alkoxylates and / or fatty acid amides from the field of nonionic surfactants.
  • surfactants such as fatty alcohol alkoxylates, fatty acid alkoxylates, fatty alkyl polyglycosides, fatty amine alkoxylates and / or fatty acid amides from the field of nonionic surfactants.
  • anionic surfactants it is possible to use alkylcarboxylates, alkyl ether carboxylates, alkane sulfates, alkane ether sulfates, alkane sulfonates, alkyl phosphates, alkyl ether phosphates, taurides and / or sarcosides.

  • the product was spun for 30 seconds and dried for 30 seconds at a surface temperature of 120 ° C in the tenter.
  • the bleaching formulations are shown in Table 4.1 and the associated whiteness and absorbency results for the product in Table 4.2.
  • the absorbency also referred to as hydrophilicity
  • the product is dependent on the cleaning performance of the detergent used. It is tested using the TEGEWA Drip Test, which measures the amount of time a stained drop of water needs to sink into the fabric. The exact description is in the Journal Melliand Textilberichte 68 (1987), pages 581-583 released. A better differentiating method is the determination of absorbency according to the riser method according to DIN 53924.
