Patented Nov. 25, 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT, OFFICE PROCESS OF PRODUCING FAST DYEINGS AND BY THE DYED FIBER OBTAINED THERE- Werner Kirst, Kon'igstein in Taunus, Germany,

assignor to General Aniline & Film Corporation,a corporation of Delaware No Drawing. Application July 28, 1938, Serial No. 221,715. In Germany July 31, 1937 v 14 Claims.

-wherein n represents the number 1 or 2 and R represents one of the following atomic groupings:

' -NI-ICONHarylmay be present in any num-' her and any order, with the exception of such derivatives as do not contain in thenaphthalene ring a free position capable of coupling with diazo compounds, then diazotizing the compound and causing it to combine with itself. The aryl radicals may contain substituents as, for instance, alkyl-, alkoxy-, trifiuoromethyl-- or nitro-groups.

The self-coupling maybe performed or completed, for instance, by adding to the diazo-bath an agent neutralizing the acid or having an alkaline action, after the diazotization is finished, or

by passing the goods through a bath having an alkaline action.

I'he salts of the sulphonic acids of the constitution indicated above may be applied to the fiber in aneutral or feebly acid bath; thus damage of the animal fiber is avoided, whereas, for instance, the process of preparing insoluble azo-dyestufis on the fiber by, self-coupling .amino-arylides of hydroxy-carboxylic acids as described in U. S. Patent No. 1,922,463, cannot be applied to animal fibers, since the amino-arylides of the hydroxycarboxylic acids must be brought on the fiber in a strongly alkaline bath. For the same reason the self-coupling dyestuffs described by J. S. Turski in ,,Melliands Textilberichte (1937), vol.

XVIII, part 1, page 75, cannot be used for-animal fibers and mixtures thereof with cellulose fibers. The new process is distinguished by a simple tainty in the dyeing operation. The dyeings obtained have a good fastness to wet processing and very good fastness to rubbing; those obtained on mixtures of wool and staple-fiber'from regenerated celluloses are of especial value, if in the above-indicated formula n represents the number 1, since the fibersmay be dyed uniformly.

The following examples serve to illustrate the invention, but they are not intended to limit'it' thereto:

1. 1 kilo of mixed yarn consisting of'30 parts of staple fiber from viscose and parts of wool is treated for 1 hour at 85 C. in a solution containing per 24 litres of liquor30 grams ofthe mode of app ication and by a high degree of cersodium salt of 3" -amino-4 -benzoyl-amino-2- benzoylamino 5 hydroxynaphthalene 7 sulphonic acid of the following constitution:

Hots NHCO-O-NHC 0Q and 50 grams of ammonium sulphate. The whole is then cooled to about 70 C. by adding 60 grams of sodium sulphate dissolved in- 6 litres of cold water and allowed to stand for 1 hour at this temperature. The goods are then centrifuged and treated for /2 hour in the cold in a fresh bath containing:

30 grams of sodium nitrite, grams of formic acid of per cent strength and 30 grams of sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulphonate in 30 litres of cold water,

then centrifugedand developed in v 30 litres of-cold water, containing 45 cc. of ammonia ,of 25 per' cent strength and 15 cc. of a solution of 30 per cent strength of the The material is then rinsed and dried. A beautiful red-orange shade of good fastness to washing and fulling and good fastness to rubbing is obtained.

2. By using in Example 1 instead of the sodium 6 hydroxy-naphthalene-7-sulph0nic acid of the 10 formula:

NHCO-O-NHC o-O-Nn,

a brilliant scarlet dyeing is obtained.

3. 1 kilo of yarn from viscose artificial silk is treated for 1 hour at 70 C. in a solution containing in 30 litres of water 30 grams of the ammonium salt of 3"-amino-4'-benzoylamino-2- benzoylamino 5 hydroxynaphthalene 7 sulphonic acid, and 60 grams of sodium sulphate.

The yarn is squeezed or centrifuged, then treated for hour in a fresh bath containing grams of sodium nitrite,

" 30 grams of sodium dibutylnaphthalenesulpho- 30 nate and 80 cc. of hydrochloric acid of 20 B. in 30 litres of cold water,

squeezed and treated for hour in 30 litres of cold water containing 45 cc. of ammonia of 25 per cent strength and 15 cc. of a solution of 30 per cent strength of the" product obtained by. causing ethylene oxide to act upon octodecyl alcohol.

The material is then rinsed and dried. A beautiful red-orange dyeing is obtained.

4. 1 kilo of wool is treated for 1 hour at 85 c.

to 90 C. in a solution containing in 30 litres of liquor 30 grams of sodium 4"-amino-3'-benzoylamino-2-benzoylamino 5-hydroxy naphthalene- 7-sulphonate, 80 grams of ammonium sulphate and 20 grams of sodium sulphate. The wool is -squeezed and diazotized for half-an-hour with a solution containing 30 grams of sodium nitrite,

30 grams of sodium 'dibutyinaphthalenesulphonate and A 80 cc. of formic acid of 85 per cent strength in 30 litres of cold water.

' 6 309 grams of sodium acetate, previously dissolved.

are added to this bath; the material is further treated for about /2 hour in the solution, rinsed,

if necessary with addition of a small quantity of ammonia or sodium carbonate, rinsed again and nate instead of sodium 4"-amino-3'-benzoyl amino 2'- benzoylamino-5-hydroxynaphthalene- 'l sulphonate used in Example 4.

6.A fabric of staple fiber from viscose is printed with a printing paste containing 15 grams of sodium 3"-amino-4'-benzoylamino- 2 benzoylamino 5 hydroxynaphthalene-lsulphonate in 1'75 cc. of an aqueous solution, 500 grams of wheat starch tragacanth thickening and 25 grains of sodium nitrite, dissolved in 280 cc. of water.

The fabric is dried, steamed for about 10 minutes in a room containing an acid vapor obtained for instance by evaporating a mixture of 25 parts of acetic acid of 50 per cent strength and 5 parts of formic acid of 85 per cent strength; it is then passed through a bath containing per litre of water 10 grams of sodium carbonate, rinsed, soaped, rinsed again and dried. Red-orange printing eflfects are obtained. 5

Instead of steaming the material in acid vapor the printed fabric may be passed through a dilute acid solution, then exposed to air and treated in a dilute sodium carbonate solution for developing the dyeing. Alternatively, the fabric may be padded with amixture of sodium 3"-amino- 4' benzoylamino 2 benzoylamino 5 hydroxynaphthalene-7-sulphonate and sodium nitrite, then printed with a non-volatile acid and passed through a bath having an alkaline action, whereby at the places printed with acid redorange printing effects are obtained.

squeezed and ,treatedfor .about half-an-hour in the cold with 80 cc. of ammonia of 25 per cent strength in o 36 litres of water.

A Bordeaux shade of very good properties of fastness is obtained.

8. By using in Example 7 instead of the compound mentioned therein 30 grams ofthe sodium salt of a sulphonic acid of the following consti- 'sulphonate.

80 cc. of hydrochloric acid of B.

litres'of water. a
