Description

Patented Aug. 11, 1936 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE raoonss or momma CELLULOSE MATERIAL Ludwig Orthner, Leverkusen-I. G. Work, and Werner Siefken, Cologne, Germany, assignors ,to I. G. Farbenindustrie Aktiengesellschaft,
Frankfort-on-the-Main, Germany No Drawing. Application April 7, 1934. Serial In Germany April 15, 1933 14 Claims. (01. a zo) The present invention relates to an improvement in the process of mercerizing cellulose material.
More particularly our invention consists in adding to the mercerizing baths a mixture of purpose comprise mixtures of phenols, halogenated or otherwise substituted derivatives thereof with urea or thiourea compounds being substituted at the nitrogen atom by organic radicals. Such radicals are, for instance, alkyl, alkylene, hydroxy alkyl, dihydroxy alkyl, cycloalkyl, aralkyl, or aryl radicals.
The amount of. the said urea or thiourea compounds contained in the mixtures may be any one above about 2%, but preferably the mixtureconsists of about of phenols and about 10% of the urea or thiourea compounds.
The mercerizing liquors prepared according to our invention are distinguished by excellent wetting properties, so that the cellulose material treated therein is quickly and homogeneously penetrated. By using the tetraalkyl derivatives of urea or thioureathere is involved the further advantage that the solutions show improved wetting capacity without at the same time forming foams.
All the substances which are employed in carrying out our invention are very stable in alkaline solutions and are therefore not decomposed and made inefiective even by prolonged use of the mercerizing bath.
The following examples will further illustrate the nature of our said invention which, however, is not limited thereto. The parts are by weight.
Example 1 To a meroerizing bath of 30 B. are added 1% by vol. of a mixture of 40 parts of crude cresol, 40 parts of crude xylenol and 20 parts of N-butyl-N'-dihydroxy propyl thiourea. Raw cotton placed into the'clear solution is immediately wetted.
Example 2 Example 3 To a mercerizing bath of 28 B6. are added 1.5% by volume of a mixture of 7 parts of mono phenyl urea, 50 parts of crude cresol and 43 parts of crude xylenol; the mercerizing lyepos- 5 sesses an outstanding wetting capacity.
Example 4 To a bath of 28 B. are added 1% by volume of a mixture of 90 parts of crude xylenol and 10 10 parts of piperidyl urea; a raw cotton thread placed into the bath sinks down swiftly.
Example 5 1.2% by volume of a mixture of 90 parts of 15 crude xylenol, 9 parts of tetrabutyl urea and 1 part of tetraethyl urea are added to a mercerizing bath of 30 B. The clear solution, which hardly foams, possesses a good wetting capacity.
Example 6 Example 7 0.9% by volume of a mixture of parts of 30 xylenol and 5 parts of p-toluylurea are added to a mercerizing bath which hereby obtains wetting capacity for raw cotton. Instead of p-toluyl urea also mor o-toluyl urea can be used.
Example 8 The wetting capacity of mercerizing baths will be improved by adding 1.2% by volume of a mixture of 90 parts of xylenol and 10 parts of N-butyl-N-cyclohexyl thiourea.
Example 9 The wetting capacity of mercerizing baths will be improved by adding a mixture of 20 parts of chloroxylenol, 70 parts of xylenol, 5 parts of 45 tetraethyl urea and 5 parts of tetrabutyl urea. Cotton fibers placed into the bath are quickly and homogeneously penetrated.
Example 10 0 1.2% by volume of a mixture of 92 parts of xylenol and 8 parts of N-N'-ethylene urea is added to a mercerizing bath of about 28 B. The solution shows an excellent wetting capacity. 5
