Definitions

  • This invention relates to the treatment of wool for the purpose of reducing its tendency to felt or shrink when washed in aqueous liquors.
  • shrink resistance in wool may be produced by treatment with suitable solutions of permonosulphuric acid or its salts without the use of additions of such large quantities of sulphuric acid as employed previously, provided that, following treatment with these solutions, the wool is passed through solutions or dispersions of a certain type of reducing agent. 7
  • the present invention consists in a method of reducing the tendency of wool to felt or shrink, in which materials composed wholly or partly of wool are treated at any suitable stage of manufacture-with a solution of permonosulphuric acid or a salt or salts thereof,
  • Treatment with the solutions of permonosulphuric acid or its salts may be made at temperatures ranging from cold to 70 C. and the bath of solutions or dispersions of salts of sulphurous acid may be at temperatures from 7 cold to boiling.
  • solutions or dispersions of the salts of sulphurous acid are preferably at the pH given by the normal salts in solution or dispersion, but may also be used if alkaline or weakly acid.
  • Salts of sulphurous acid which have been found satisfactory include those of the following metals and radicles: sodium, lithium, potassium, aluminum, barium,
  • the solutions may be applied to the woollen goods by immersion, padding or'spraying.
  • the duration of treatment varies with the concentration
  • the solutions are stable and do not losestrength rapidly during use.
  • the permonosulphuric acid solution is more stable when it is free from foreign electrolytes and other impurities.
  • Pieces (1 part) of an all wool serge were treated at C. for 50 minutes in parts of 0.012 normal s olu tions of each of (a) hydrogen peroxide (b) persulphuric acid (0) permonosulphuric acid, all these solutions being brought to pH 2.2. 1
  • Example 1 parts of previously scoured, damp wool are passed for a total time of 1 /2 seconds through a solution containing 36 parts of permonosulphuric acid in 1,000 parts of water at a temperature of 25 C., the pH of the solution being 0.5, adjusted with sulphuric acid.
  • the fabric is then squeezed through a mangle, run through the air for 10 seconds and immersed for 30 seconds in a solution of 100 parts of sodium sulphite crystals in 1,000 parts of water at 25 C. It is then rinsed with water and sent forward for normal finishing processes.
  • Example 2 A treating bath is made from 8 parts permonosulphuric acid, 1 part sulphated fatty alcohol 200 parts water.
  • Sulphuric acid is added so that the pH is 0.3 and the temperature adjusted to 35 C.
  • Scoured all wool knitted underwear fabric in the dry state is passed through a pad mangle with the bottom roller dipping in the treating bath described above.
  • the mangle is so arranged as to give a retention of the treating liquor.
  • the wool is then run through the air for 10 seconds and immersed for 6 seconds in a solution of parts of sodium sulphite crystals in 1,000 parts of water at 35 C. The wool is then well rinsed.
  • Example 3 A bath is prepared containing 1 part of permonosulphuric acid in1,150 parts of water and is adjusted by means of caustic soda to pH 4.5.
  • Example 4 38 parts of wool serge are treated at 30 C. for 1 hour in 1,150 parts of water containing 1 part of permonosulphuric acid adjusted to pH 1.4 by means of sulphuric acid.
  • the serge is then neutralized by a bath containing 2 parts of sodium carbonate in 1,000 parts of Water at 20 C. The time taken may be 5 minutes and after this the excess alkali is rinsed away with water.
  • the wool is then treated at 25 C. for 30 minutes in a bath containing 20 parts of potassium bisulphite in 1,000 parts of Water g iV ing pI-I 4.7 initially and finally rinsed with plain water.
  • Example 5 A'dry all Wool fabric is passed through the "nip of a pad mangle, the bottom roller of which is dipping in a bathcontaining 5 parts of permonosulphuric acid and 1 part 'of 'sulphated fatty alcohol in 100 parts of water at 30 C. at pH 0.4. The solution licked up by the bottom roller immediately wets out the fabric in passage through the nip.
  • the fabric is then run through the air for 20'seconds and then 'passed through another pad mangle with the bottom roller dipping in the second treating bath containing parts of sodium sulphite crystals and 10 .parts of soda ash dissolved in 100 parts of water at a temperature of 30 C.
  • the liquor taken up by the roller im- 'mediately frees the fabric from acidity during the squeezing action of the mangle.
  • the Wool fabric is then run through the air for 10 seconds and finally rinsed.
  • Example 7 50 parts of wool fabric already scoured by means of 's'ulphated fatty alcohol are treated at 25 C. for 40 minutes in a solution of 1 part of permonosulphuric acid in .parts of water at pH 1.7.
  • the woollen material is then rinsed and passed for -10 seconds through a bath at 95 C. containing 10 parts of sodium sulphite crystals in 100 parts of water. is then rinsed and dried.
  • Example 8 80-parts of half hose made from 50% wool and 50% cotton are treated at 25 C. for 40 minutes in a bath containing l'part of permonosulphuric acid in 2000'parts of "water at pH 2.0.
  • the goods are rinsed twice and then treated for 30 minutes in a second bath at 25 C. containing 10 parts sodium'sulphite crystals, 3 parts of zinc sulphate and 1 part of commercial ammonia (S. G. O. 900) in 2000 parts-of water.
  • Example 9 40 parts of wool cloth are treated at 60 C. for '15 minutes at pH 1.8 in a solution of 1 part of permonosulphuric acid in 1200 parts of water.
  • the cloth is then given one rinse at 60 C. and treated for .10 minutes in a bath at 40 C. containing 6 parts of magnesium sulphite in 1200 parts of water at pH 8.5. The cloth is then rinsed.
  • Example 10 40 parts of scoured Botany yarn are treated for 20 minutes at 26 C. in a bath containing 1 part of permono- Example 11 35 parts of scoured botany yarn are treated at 32 C.
  • the yarn is then rinsed, and treated for 30 minutes at -28" C. in a bath containing basic aluminum sulphite made from 7 /2 parts of sodium sulphite crystals, 1 /2 parts of ammonia S. G. O. 900 and 3 parts of potash alum in 1500 parts of water.
  • the yarn is then rinsed.
  • Example 12 40 parts'of all wool fabric are treated at 25 C. for minutes in a solution of 1 part of permonosulphuric acid in 1200 part-s'of water, adjusted to pH' 6.8 by means of caustic soda;
  • Thefabricis then rinsed and treated at 25 C. for 30 minutes in a second bath containing 5 parts of sodium sulphiterc'rystals and 2 parts of soda ash dissolved in 1000 .parts of water.
  • the wool is ' ⁇ then 'rinse'd with water.
  • a method of treating textile materials consisting at "least in part of wool to reduce the tendency to shrink 'wirewwashed in aqueous liquors comprising treating such materials'witha solution of a substance selected from the group c'onsisting of permonosulphuric acid and salts thereof, at a pH less than 8, followed by treating with a liquor containing a substance selected from the group consisting of normal, acid and basic salts of sulphurous acid and-compounds which produce such salts in solution.
  • the yarn is 5.
  • Woolen material and materials consisting at least partly of wool, which have been rendered resistant to shrinkage when washed in aqueous liquors, by treatment in a solution of a substance selected from the group consisting of permonosulphuric acid and salts thereof at a pH below 8 pH, the order of the time of treatment and concentration of solution being at least about one second at a concentration of at least about .05 followed by treatment with a liquor containing a substance selected from the group consisting of salts of sulphurous acid and compounds which produce such salts in solution.
  • a process which comprises treating a textile material consisting at least in part of wool with an aqueous solution of permonosulphuric acid having a pH below 2 at a temperature of about 25-35 C. and then subjecting the so-treated textile to an aqueous solution of a sulphite salt at about the same temperature, thereby to reduce the tendency of said textile to shrink.
  • a process which comprises treating a textile material consisting at least in part of wool with an aqueous solution of permonosulphuric acid having a pH below 8, containing at least about .05% of permonosulphuric acid for at least about one second and then subjecting the sci-treated textile to an aqueous solution of a sulphite salt to reduce the tendency of such textile to shrink.
