Abstract
A process for dyeing a textile substrate in a single step with specked reserve or multicoloured effects in which an oil-in-water dispersion containing a thickening agent and at least one water-soluble or organic solvent-soluble dyestuff is applied to the substrate, the organic phase of the dispersion comprising an organic solvent selected from polyglycol ethers, higher alcohols, carboxylic acid esters, ketones, nitriles arid saturated cyclic hydrocarbons and mixtures thereof and being uniformly distributed through the aqueous phase in form of droplets from 0.2 to 2 mm diameter, the density of the organic phase differing by 0.01 to 0.2 g/cm<3> from that of the aqueous phase, and the substrate being subsequently treated to effect fixation of the dyestuff, and the oil-in-water dispersions used for this process.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Improvements in or relating to organic compounds
The present invention relates to a process for dyeing a textile substrate to produce in one step reserve and/or multicolored effects.
The use of dyeing preparations comprising two mutually immiscible liquid phases for dyeing textile substrates is known. Such 2-phase systemsmay be finely divided water-in-oil (w/o) emulsions or oil-in-water (o/w) emulsions, containing an emulsifying agent and usually a thickening agent.
The o/w emulsion type is used for pigment printing, the pigment dyes being dispersed in either the organic or the aqueous phase. With the known o/w emulsions, the substrate is either dyed in a single shade or with tone-in-tone effects in a single step or printed with multicolored effects in a process requiring at least two successive applications of a printing emulsion.
It has now been found that it is possible to dye a textile substrate in a single step with speckled reserve and/or multicolored effects by using an o/w dyeing dispersion comprising organic solvent droplets of visible size uniformly distributed through the aqueous phase.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a process for dyeing a textile substrate in a single step with speckled reserve or multicolored effects, comprising applying to the substrate an oil-inwater dispersion containing a thickening agent and at least one water-soluble or organic solventsoluble dyestuff, the organic phase of the dispersion comprising an organic solvent immiscible or slightly miscible with water and selected from (C1 4)alkylene oxide polyglycol ethers, higher alcohols, carboxylic acid esters, ketones, nitriles and saturated cyclic hydrocarbons and mixtures thereof and being in form of droplets from 0.2 to 2 mm diameter which are uniformly distributed through the aqueous phase, the density of the organic phase differing by 0.01 to 0.2 g/cm3 from that of the aqueous phase, and subsequently treating the dyed substrate to effect fixation of the dyestuff.
The invention also provides oil-in-water dispersions containing a thickening agent and at least one water-soluble or organic solvent-soluble dyestuff, as described above.
The amount of organic phase in the dispersion depends essentially on the desired effect on the substrate.. Generally, the organic phase is up to 10%, preferably 2 to 5% by weight of the aqueous phase. The organic droplets have preferably a diameter from 1 to 2 mm.
The choice of the organic solvent is essentially determined by the density difference with the aqueous phase. Preferably, the density of the organic phase differs by 0.01 to 0.1 g/cm3 from that of the aqueous phase.
Suitable polyglycol ethers are the addition products of a (C,~4)alkylene oxide, for example ethylene oxide or propylene oxide, and a polyglycol, e.g. ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, 2,3-butylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol and the like. Preferred poiyglycoi ethers are the addition products of propylene oxide to propylene glycol having a molecular weight from 1,000 to 2,500, preferably from 1,700 to 2,000, or the addition products of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide to propylene glycol, more preferably those resulting from the addition of 20 to 40 mols propylene oxide and 2 to 10, preferably 5 to 8 mols ethylene oxide to 1 mol propylene glycol, such polyglycol ethers having a molecular weight from 1,200 to 3,000.The latter type of polyglycol ethers are commercially available under the
Registered Trade Mark PLURONICS (BASF,
Ludwigshafen, W. Germany).
Other suitable organic solvents for the organic phases are those which are insoluble or slightly soluble in water, for example:
higher alcohols: e.g. pentanol
carboxylates: e.g. propyl, butyl or benzyl acetic acid esters, dodecyl phthalate
nitriles: e.g. 3-(benzyloxy)propionitrile
saturated cyclic hydrocarbons: e.g.
cyclohexane, methyl-cyclohexane
Mixtures of any of the above organic solvents or mixtures of such a solvent with a solvent which is more soluble in water, e,g. a carboxylic acid ester such as ethyl or isopropyl acetate or a ketone such as 2-butanone, may also be used. Preferred mixtures are those comprising at least one carboxylic acid ester such as benzyl acetate and a nitrile, more preferably those comprising a mixture of higher alcohols, carboxylic acid esters, ketones and/or nitriles (components having a good dissolving power for the dyestuffs soluble in an organic medium) together with a saturated cyclic hydrocarbon (components for adjusting the density of the organic phase).The choice and proportion of each component depend on the desired final density of the organic phase, the solubility of the dyestuff in the resulting organic phase and the immiscibility of the organic phase with the aqueous medium. Preferably, the solvent mixture is immiscible with the aqueous phase.
Particularly preferred solvent mixtures are those comprising benzyl acetate, cyclohexane and methylcyclohexane, preferably in a weight ratio from 1.5:0.3:1 to 2.5:1.2:1.5.
Preferred organic solvents are (C,~4)alkylene oxide polyglycol ethers, particularly the above mentioned preferred polyglycol ethers.
Although any textile substrate may be dyed according to the process of the invention, with the proviso that the substrate must be dyeable with at least one water-soluble dyestuff or a dyestuff soluble in the indicated organic phase, preferred textile substrates are those comprising natural or synthetic polyamide, e.g. wool, nylon 6, 6.6 etc.... and blends thereof. The substrate may be in any conventional form, e.g. woven or knitted goods, yarn, carpets, non-wovens, tops. The process of the invention is particularly suitable for dyeing flat form textile substrates, preferably carpets. In another preferred embodiment, carpet yarn is knitted and then dyed according to the invention. Subsequently, the dyed yarn is unknitted and used for the fabrication of carpets.
With the o/w dispersions of the invention, various speckled effects may be obtained on the substrate, depending on the number and type of dyestuffs used. In the case where several dyestuffs
are used, an o/w dispersion may be obtained containing droplets of different colours
corresponding to each dyestuff respectively. If
each organic solution of a dyestuff is added
separately to the aqueous phase, surprisingly, little or no colour mixing takes place under these
conditions. In some cases, a partial mixing of the dyestuffs present in the organic phase may be
desirable to obtain a larger range of colours. On application to the substrate of an o/w dispersion
containing one or more dyestuffs in the organic
phase, speckled spots of one or more colours are
obtained.These effects may result on a ground dyed substrate when the aqueous phase of the
dispersion contains one or more dyestuffs, or on a
white ground when the aqueous phase is free of
dyestuff. By contrast, a substrate speckled with white spots on a dyed ground may be obtained when the applied o/w dispersion contains only one or more water-soluble dyestuffs in the aqueous phase and no dyestuff in the organic phase.
According to the process of the invention, dyestuffs belonging to various classes may be employed, depending on the substrate to be dyed, with the proviso that the dyestuff has to be soluble in the aqueous or organic phase. Pigments and disperse dyestuffs which are soluble in the specified organic solvents are included in the classes of dyestuffs suitable for the process of the invention. Such dyestuffs are known from the
Color Index. Preferred dyestuffs are those classified in the Color Index under "Solvent Dyes".
When the substrate comprises natural or synthetic polyamides, preferred dyestuffs for the aqueous phase are anionic dyestuffs, more preferably acid dyestuffs. Such dyestuffs are known from the
Color Index. Among the acid dyestuffs, some are more readily soluble in the organic phase than in the aqueous phase and may be used in the organic phase.
The concentration of the dyestuffs in the aqueous and organic phases depends on various factors, particularly on the desired depth of shade.
The organic phase may contain up to 1 SOg/liter of dyestuff, this upper range depending on the solubility of the dyestuff in the organic phase.
Preferably, the organic phase contains up to 1 00g/liter of dyestuff. The concentration of the dyestuff in the aqueous phase may generally be up to 75 g/liter.
As mentioned above, the aqueous phase contains a thickening agent in order to stabilize the dispersion and to hinder the coalescence of the organic droplets. Any natural, chemically modified or synthetic thickening agent used in the textile industry, is suitable. Preferred thickening agents are those which may be at least partially flocculated by the addition of a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid, preferably formic acid. As examples of such thickening agents may be given the alginates and their derivatives and guar derivatives which are at least partially flocculated by the addition of formic acid. Such thickening agents are known and commercially available. The amount of thickening agent present in the aqueous phase is from 0.1 to 10%, preferably from 1 to 8% by weight.
Depending on the water-soluble dyestuff the aqueous phase may contain further dyeing assistants such as a buffer, an acid, a levelling agent, a surface active agent having no or low emulsifying properties. Preferably, the aqueous phase contains an amine salt, preferably guanidine hydrochloride. Such a salt is used in order to hinder the bleeding of dyestuff present in the organic phase into the aqueous phase. The amount of amine salt in the aqueous phase is conveniently from 1 to 10 g/liter, preferably from
1 to 5 g/liter.
The o/w dispersions of the invention may be applied on the substrate according to known
methods, depending on the nature of the substrate. In the case where the substrate comprises natural or synthetic polyamide, the application of the o/w dispersion thereon is preferably carried out by padding, impregnation, dipping or screen printing, more preferably by padding or impregnation.
After dyeing, the substrate is treated for fixation in known manner depending on the nature of the substrate, e.g. by treatment with saturated or superheated steam or with hot air, or by storage at
a temperature from room temperature to 400C.
Subsequently, the substrate is washed and dried.
The o/w dispersions of the invention may be
prepared according to known methods, e.g. as described in Example 1 or 9 below. When several dyestuffs are used for the organic phase, it is convenient to add separately each organic solution of the dyestuff to the stirred aqueous phase which already contains an at least partially flocculated thickening agent and optionally a dyestuff and further additives, particularly an organic ammonium salt. Preferred o/w dispersions
are those comprising at least one dyestuff dissolved in the aqueous phase, preferably an acid dyestuff, and at least one dyestuff dissolved in the organic phase.
The dyeing process of the invention displays all the advantages of a one step process, particularly when the substrate is a carpet. The process is easy to carry out and requires no special machines although the resulting multicolored effects on the substrate may comprise a large choice of various colours and spots having a diameter below 5 mm (microspace dyeing). Such small spots cannot be obtained by the conventional carpet dyeing techniques in a single step.
The following Examples further serve to illustrate the invention. In the Examples all parts are by weight and all temperatures are in degrees
Centigrade unless otherwise stated.
