Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a polyamide multifilament fiber with enhanced dyeing properties.
  • the polyamide fiber is suitable for low-temperature dyeing and shorter dyeing cycle.
  • the present invention also discloses a method for obtaining such a fiber.
  • the polyamide fiber is obtained by blending at least a polyamide 5.X, X being an integer from 4 to 16 with an aliphatic polyamide during the melt-spinning extrusion of the polyamide fiber.
  • the blended polyamide fiber and articles made therefrom can be dyed at a lower temperature than the usual boiling temperature, and the dyeing time is half of the time of a normal dyeing cycle.
  • the dyed polyamide fiber and article also show enhanced fastness to washing and perspiration.
  • Polyamide also known as nylon, is a linear condensation polymer composed of repeated primary bonds of amide group.
  • a polyamide fiber is generally produced by melt-spinning extrusion and is available in staple fiber, tow, monofilament, multi-filament, flat or texturized form.
  • Polyamides are semi-crystalline polymers.
  • the amide group -(-CO-NH-)- provides hydrogen bonding between polyamide intermolecular chains, providing high strength at elevated temperatures, toughness at low temperatures, wear and abrasion resistance, low friction coefficient and good chemical resistance. These properties have made polyamides among the strongest of all available man-made fibers.
  • Polyamide blends comprising polyamide 510, or polyamide copolymers comprising penthamethylenediamine are known ith the art espacilly as monofilaments with improved heat and moisture stability in industrial use - see e.g. JP2012076158 or EP2022811 .
  • the dyeing efficiency of polyamide fibers is related to the carboxyl end groups -COOH and especially amine end groups -NH2, which exhibit polar and hydrophilic characteristics.
  • the dye diffusion into fibers is related to the amorphous and crystalline balance, molecular orientation, molecular weight, intra-molecular and inter-molecular bonds and available hydroxyls or polar groups.
  • the dye color uptake, rate of dyeing, homogeneity and fastness depend on the dyeing process conditions such as temperature, time and pH, and also on the dyeing equipment like exhaust or padding equipment.
  • the chemical auxiliaries for instance, leveling agent, surfactant, retarders, fixing and so forth, are also important for an effective dyeing.
  • the dye is classified according to its chemical composition, mechanism of reaction, size of molecules and so on.
  • the most common types of dyes are reactive dyes, direct dyes, basic dyes, acid dyes, metallic dyes, azo dyes, dispersed dyes and vat dyes.

  • the acid dye contains hydrophilic groups of sodium sulfonate radicals (- SO 3 Na) that can be combined with the amino groups (- NH+) of the polyamide fiber by the ionic bonds or electrostatic forces to provide better dyeability and brighter color.
  • the rest of the aforementioned dyes are combined with polyamide fiber by hydrogen bonds or Van der Waals forces to provide a lighter color.
  • the common temperature and process time for dyeing polyamide is boiling temperature ( ⁇ 100oC) and 60 minutes of processing time. This temperature is known as necessary to generate a swollen morphological structure of the fiber, by spacing the molecules and breaking the intermolecular bonds so that the dye can diffuse into the interior of the fiber and form permanent chemical bonds.
  • the time of 60 minutes is known to be required for achieving a deep, regular and homogenous color.
  • those temperatures and time are energy consuming and not environment friendly.

  • the knitted fabric was dyed in exhausting equipment at 60oC temperature for 30 minutes.
  • the quantity used was 3.5%wt of a black acid dye, and 1%wt of a leveling agent.
  • the pH of the solution was adjusted to 3 - 4 with ammonium sulfate and acetic acid.
  • the bath relation was 1:30, meaning 1 part of fabric per 30 parts of water.
  • the polyamide was the polyamide 6, FD (full-dull). This texturized polyamide yarn was obtained from the company Antex Ltda as a bobbin.
  • the multi-filament polyamide fiber was knitted into fabric.

  • Example 9 Each of the examples (Examples 9 to 12) is evaluated for washing fastness, alkaline and acid perspiration fastness, CIE Lab color intensity "L”, IVN (viscosity index) and ATG (terminal amino groups). The results are shown in the table 2 below. Table 2 IVN ATG PA 5.6 BR PA 6.6 FD PA 6 FD Dyeing Time [min] Dyeing temp.
  • polyamide 5.6 and polyamide 6.6 fiber blends low-temperature dyeing properties and shorter dyeing cycle are possible with polyamide 5.6 and polyamide 6.6 fiber blends.
  • the resulting color fastness of polyamide blended articles (ex. 10 and 11) is also superior in relation to polyamide 5.6 articles alone (ex. 1 and 3).
