Description

Patented den. 6%, i932 WILLIAM H. LOBIMIEE, F CLEVELAND, DECK) DELUSTEEED ARTEIGIAL $111K AND METHOD OF DELUSTERING lilo Drawing.
This invention relates to the art of delustering artificial silk or rayon and to the re sulting product.
Artificial silk, unless delustered during its manufacture into threads, possesses a high sheen or luster which is in marked contrast to that of natural silk. Efforts have been made heretofore to alterthis appearance so as to give the artificial silk an appearance w more closely resembling natural silk. So far as I am aware such efiorts have not been commercially satisfactory.
l have devised a method of delustering artificial silk, however, which gives a high- 35 ly desirable product with any desired degree of luster, can be quickly,eas1ly and inexpensively employed and possesses. the additional virtue that by its use before the artificial silk is dyed, the amount of dyestufi otherwise rem quired for a desired shade or depth of color can be materially decreased. 1
The present method may be practiced on artificial silk in the form of thread, bank or skein, or piece goods. It may be carried out before or during dyeing, and after dyeing in the-case of certain dyes which are not dissolved or otherwise harmfully effected by the substances employed for delustering. My-invention is based'on the discovery that go when artificial silk or rayon is suitably brought into contact with a liquid to which has been added certain inorganic salts which react to form an extremely fine, extremely insoluble precipitate, the artificial silk or rayon is delustered in proportion to the amount of salts used, its strength and softness as present in the finished product are preserved substantially unimpaired and the delustering is permanent under the ordinary to subsequent processing operations and the ordinary service conditions.
As an illustration of my invention and of substances having suitable properties I give the following detailed description:
Alum and barium chloride in the desired amounts are dissolved in hot water and added to a bath. Then the artificial silk is immersed therein under proper temperature conditions and for a length of time sufficient to for the delnstering action to take place; I

prefer to use approximately equal parts of the two above mentioned salts. For nearly complete delustering about one percent of each salt (based on the weight of artificial silk to be treated) has been found satisfactory but the amounts may be increased severalpercent I with slight additional delustering. For only partial delustering the percentage of salts may be decreased so that only a small fraction of one percent of each salt is present, the degree of delustering varying with the amount of salts used.
I have found that when the delusterin'g and dyeing are carried out in that order the amount of dyestulf required for a given shade or color can be decreased perhaps fifteen per about. 70 F. to about 212 F. but, since artificial silk tends to become somewhat brittle and to lose strength when heated near the boiling point of water, I prefer not to exceed about 180 F. Very good results can be obtained at temperatures from about 70 F. and about 180 F. and particularly g5 between about F. and about F The delustering action takes place quickly where the artificial silk is in such form thatthe threads can bebrought properly and quickly into the solution, as in the case of a single thread, and somewhat more slowl as The product resulting from this method has an appearance more or less resembling that of natural silk, and its strength and softness is substantially unimpaired.
When artificial silk is treated as aforesaid some action takes place, which may be due to 'a chemical phenomenon, by which there is in the case of a skein or woven piece w ere the skein or piece or the solution is agitated .to bring about the proper contact.
brought about such a combination between the artificial silk and certain substances in the solution that the desired delustering is accomplished.
Having thus described my invention in sufiicient detail for those skilled in the art to understand and practice the same, what I desire to secure by Letters Patent is defined in what is claimed:
1. The method of delustering artificial silk which comprises providing asolution containing approximately equal parts of alum and barium chloride totalling from a fraction of one percent up to about five percent by weight of the silk, and bringing the silk into suitable contact with the solution while maintaining the temperature of the solution between about 70 F. and 212 F.
2. The method of delustering artificial silk which comprises immersing the silk in a solution heated between about 160 F. and about 180 Rand containing approximately equal parts of alum and barium chloride totalling between a fraction of one percent and five percent by weight of the silk and bringing the silk into the solution in a manner to permit uniform delustering of-the silk.
3. The method of delustering artificial silk which comprises providing a solution heated between about 160 F. and about 180 F. and containing approximately equal parts of alum and barium chloride totalling between about one and about three percent by weight of the silk, and bringing the silk into contact therewith in a manner to permit uniform delus'tering of the silk.
45. The method of delustering artificial silk which comprises immersing the silk in a solution heated between about 7 0 F. and about 212 F. and containing approximately equal parts ofalum and barium chloride totalling between a fraction of one percent and three percent by weight of the silk, and bringing I the silk into the solution in a manner to permit uniform delustering of the silk.
5. The method of delusterlng artificial silk which comprises providing a solution heated between about F. and about F. and containing approximately equal parts of alum and barium chloride totalling about two percent by weight of the silk,'and bringmg the silk into contact therewith in a manner to permit uniform delustering of the silk.
6. The method of delnstering artificial silk which comprises immersingthe silk in a solution heated between about 7 0 F. and 212 F. and containing approximately equal parts of alum and barium chloride totalling about two percent by weight of the silk, and bringing the silk into the solution in a manner to permit uniform delustering of the silk.
In testimony whereof I hereunto aifix my signature this 17th day of January, 1929.
