ATTORNE STABILlZED-FLAMEPROOFED FABRIC AND METHOD Mario M. (ii Dario, New Brlmswick, N. 1., assiguor to Clucopee Manufacturing Corporation, a corporation of Massachusetts Application December 30, 1952, Serial No. 328,554
10 Claims. (Cl. 11776) This invention relates to the flameproofing of fabrics, and more particularly to the agents incorporated in the fabrics to modify and remove deleterious side efiects produced by flameproofing agents which are nonpermanent, i. e., water soluble.
The fiameproofing of combustible fabrics, such as cotton or rayon draperies, has become necessary to avoid what otherwise would be a dangerous fire hazard. In fact, many states now require the flameproofing of all draperies that are hung in public places. Nonwoven fabrics produced, for example, by intermittent adhesive bonding of a number of superimposed card webs, in accordance with Goldman Patent 2,039,312, have recently assumed a prominent place as drapery materials. These nonwoven draperies are finding widespread use in public places such as hotels and restaurants, for their initial cost is low and they can be replaced when needed rather than being dry cleaned.
Among the many chemical compounds that have been proposed as flameproofing agents, ammonium sulfamate is well-known and extensively used, but it possesses several quite serious disadvantages. In the first place, it decomposes during aging and exposure to heat and light to release ammonia and sulfamic acid. The sulfamic acid formed as a result of this decomposition produces a serious reduction in the tensile strength of the fabric due to its tendering action on cellulosic fibers, and for dyed fabrics a very noticeable bleaching, yellowing or change in color also results. Further, when iron or metal drapery supports are employed, this decomposition causes undesirable corrosion of the metal support.
One advantage obtained by the present invention is the elimination or minimizing of these disadvantages which are inherent in the use of ammonium sulfamate as a fabric flameproofer.
According to the present invention, dicyandiamide is incorporated in fabrics containing ammonium sulfamate to modify and minimize the undesirable side effects produced by the decomposition of the ammonium sulfamate. The dicyandiamide stabilizes the ammonium sulfamate against this decomposition and enables the fabric thus treated to possess flameproof properties without a concomitant sacrifice in the other fabric properties of tensile strength and appearance.
The amount of dicyandiamide is controlled in proportion to the amount of ammonium sulfamate flameproofer present to give the stabilizing effect desired or required. Substantial stabilizing effect may be noted when the stabilizer is present in ratios as low as about parts by weight dicyandiamide to 100 parts ammonium sulfamate. Amounts larger than this produce increased stability up to about 20 parts dicyandiamide per 100 parts ammonium sulfamate. Above the ratio of about 20, the rate of improvement with increase in stabilizer decreases somewhat. It is noted further than since dicyandiamide per se is not a potent flameproofer, replacement of the ammonium sulfamate by the dicyandiamide will eventually 2,771,379 Patented Nov. 20, 1956 decrease flameproofing properties. As the dicyandiamide ratio is increased to about 30 to 35% based on ammonium sulfamate, however, light stability and anti-rusting properties increase. Accordingly, the optimum range of ratio of stabilizer to fiameproofer is approximately 20 to 35 parts stabilizer per parts flameproofer. Above a ratio of about 50, no substantial increase in stability is noted, and in view of desired flame resistance, compositions having an ingredient ratio above this level are generally not used.
The amount of ammonium sulfamate necessary to produce flame-resistant properties in a fabric may be as low as about 7% based on the weight of the bonded dry fabric, that is, 50 grains per square yard for a 750 grain (including bonding agent) fabric, preferably at least 10%, or 75 grains per square yard. Excessive amounts of solid impregnants tend to produce stiffness in the fabric. The maximum amount of ammonium sulfamate will be determined by the desired flexibility and hand of the fabric as well as by economy. Preferably, the ammonium sulfamate content will be not more than about 15%, and the total amount of both stabilizer and flameproofer will be not greater than about 20%, that is, grains per square yard for a 750 grain fabric. Generally, to avoid undue fabric stiffness, total content of flameproofer and stabilizer is not greater than about 30% based on the weight of dry fabric.
Treated fabric is prepared by forming an aqueous solution of the stabilizer and fiameproofer in the desired ratio and suitable concentration, impregnating the fabric with this solution, and then drying the fabric. The drying temperature selected will be a balance between the drying time available (limiting the minimum temperature) and the temperature at which degradation of the fabric occurs (limiting the maximum temperature); that is, drying may be carried out at room temperature if sufficient time is available. However, temperatures just above the boiling point of water afford a reasonably rapid rate of drying and relatively convenient operation. Higher temperatures may be used in special circumstances. However, at about 300 F. and above, fiber degradation, evidenced by loss in tensile strength, may be found to occur. Further, the stabilizing effect of dicyandiamide on ammonium sulfamate is considered to be a function of the individual compounds in the unreacted state, and hence temperature is maintained below levels at which any chemical reaction between the stabilizer, flameproofer, or cellulose of the fibers is likely to occur. Accordingly, drying temperatures are preferably maintained below 300 F. Details of the operation may be conveniently understood by reference to the attached drawmgs.
Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic flow sheet of one embodiment of the process provided by the present invention.
Fig. 2 is another diagrammatic flow sheet of a different embodiment of the present invention.
Fig. 3 through Fig. 9 are graphs showing the effect of aging time upon the tensile strength of fabrics treated with various amounts of dicyandiamide and ammonium sulfamate and then subjected to elevated temperatures.
Referring now to Fig. 1, a non woven fabric 10, which may be prepared in any of the known manners, as for example in accordance with Goldman Patent 2,039,312, is drawn from supply roll 11 and passed through a path defined by guide roll 12, dip roll 13, and squeeze rolls 14 and 15. Dip roll 13 is immersed in tank 16 in which an aqueous flameproofing solution 17 is provided. Solution 17 is picked up by fabric 10 as it passes around dip roll 13, and then excess solution is removed by squeeze rolls 14 and 15 to give the desired amount of liquid on the fabric as will be more fully described hereinafter.
