Definitions

  • Patented Mar. 10, 1931 ass JOSEPH VIALLET, OF PARIS, FRANCE, ASSIGNOR TO N. T. ARTIFICIAL WOOL COMPANY, LIMITED, OF LONDON, ENGLAND, A COMPANY OF GREAT BRITAIN MANUFACTURE OF TEXTILE FIBERS No Drawing. Application filed October 5, 1929, Serial No. 397,755, and in France October 8, 1928.
  • the process of manufacture of this invention comprises several successive operations.
  • the cleaned waste material is first subjected to a fermentation and softening treatment,
  • the alkaline liquor employed may be the liquor resulting from a previous boiling process.
  • the fiber is then washed, bleached, treated in order to render it supple, for example,
  • the material is sorted according to the qualities of the fiber, then beaten to remove dust and finally washed in running water.
  • the olein represents the softening agent, and the salts have a nutritive effect in the fermentation.
  • the sacks are left piled up for 24; to 48 hours according to the desired result. During this time there is produced a fermentation which causes rise in temperaturewhich may attain toO to C. and even more if the course of fermentation is not carefully supervised.
  • the fiber thus obtained passes into a scouring bath of a very low content either of caus tic soda or sodium carbonate with 1 per cent. of magnesium chloride which has the effect of preventing any destructive action of the caustic alkali.v
  • magnesium chloride it is also possible to employ alkaline earths, ammonia or the like.
  • the temperature of the bath is progresslvely increased to boiling, care being taken to cause the bath to circulate rapidly. In this manner bambooous products which gummed up the' fiber dissolve and after about an hour the fiber is withdrawn. It is found to be more supple, relatively elastic, even and free from all incrustations.
  • a further characteristic of the process which forms the object of the invention consists in the employment of these stock liquids, which after the first bath are used again, for not only the soda contained in the bath acts as well as the magnesium chloride but there are saponified ligneous substances in the liquid which dissolve the substances which gum up the fiber rendering the liquid thick and dark brown.
  • the fiber thus treated and washed is bleached in the customary manner by the most suitable process. Then it is passed into a bath containing, for example 2- 2.5 per cent. of soap, 2.5 per cent. of pet-1o leum jelly, 0.5 per cent. of any suitable alkali.
  • the bath is heated to 30 to C. and circulates through the fiber for about half hour. Subsequently, the fiber is hydro-extracted and dried until it contains only about 30 to 35 C. of moisture. Then in the moist state the fiber is passed into wool carding machines and the product obtained is dried.
  • I claim 1 In the manufacture of textile fibers suitable for spinning, the treatment of cleaned waste vegetable fibrous material of any suitable type, such as waste jute fabric Witha solution which promotes fermentation and with a softening agent, unravelling the material when the fermentation has proceeded to the desired extent and boiling with a dilute solution of alkali.
