Definitions

• the process of the invention comprises impregnating the textile material with an aqueous solution of the reaction product of water-soluble amines containing polyalkylene oxide radicals and compounds containing more than one epoxide and/or halohydrin group having a pH value less than 7, preferably less than 6, and then treating said textile material with an aqueous bath having a pH greater than 7.5 to harden the deposited amine product.
• the textile material may then be rinsed and dried by known methods at room temperature or elevated temperatures.
• the thus treated material may be further treated with a scrooping agent such as octadecyl pyridinium sulfate in a bath to improve the feel. of the material.
• Suitable anion-active compounds are, for example, alkyl sulfates 8 to 18 carbon atoms, such as lauryl sulfate, oleyl sulfate, and octadecyl sulfate, alkyl benzene sulfonates' such as dodecyl benzene sulfonate, Turkey Red oil, and other known anion-active substances.
• the pH of the bath is adjusted to a pH below 7 by the addition of any water-soluble inorganic or organic acid.
• examples of such acids are sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, formic acid, acetic acid, oxalic acid, succinic acid, citric acid and lactic acid.
• the alkaline bath has a pH greater than 7.5, preferably between 8 and 11, and is maintained at a temperature between 50 and C., preferably 70 to 95 C.
• the treatment of the textile material is usually for a period of 10 to 100 minutes.
• the pH of the alkaline bath is adjusted to above 7.5 by the addition of any water-soluble organic or inorganic base.
• suitable bases are alkali metal hydroxides and carbonates, such as potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, and potassium carbonate and amines such as triethanolamine and pyridine.
• the process of the invention may be carried out in the same bath by adding the base to the acid bath to adjust the pH to greater than 7.5. It may also be performed directly in a dyeing bath after dyeing in acid bath with dispersion dyes, for example, or after dyeing with basic dyes.
• the antistatic finish may also be applied to the textile material before dyeing because the said finish is stable under any dyeing conditions, even at the boiling point of the dye bath.
• the concentration of water-soluble reaction product in the bath is not critical and a wide range of concentrations can be employed. It is preferable to have about 0.5 to 6% of the reaction product calculated on the basis of the weight of the textile material to be finished present in the solution.
• the process of the invention is particularly suitable for finishing textile materials made of polyacrylonitrite or polyester fibers, such as Dacron and Kodel, and their mixtures with each other or any other synthetic or natural fiber.
• the process is primarily useful for treating loose material, yarns and knit goods, but may also be applied to woven goods. A satisfactory antistatic property which will remain after numerous washings in obtainable quantitatively even from relatively dilute baths.
• reaction products which are useful in the acid baths of the process are obtained from the reaction of water-soluble polyamines containing polyalkylene oxide groups with compounds containing more than one epoxide and/ or halohydrin group. They are more fully described in the commonly-assigned, copending application Serial No. 836,063, filed August 26, 1958.
• the water-soluble polyamines containing polyalkylene oxide radicals which are used as starting materials for the reaction products, are essentially known substances and may be obtained in accordance with known methods. For example, they may be prepared by reacting monoand/ or poly-functional derivatives of polyalkylene oxides, which contain reactive groups capable of reacting with amino groups by an exchange of hydrogen atoms, with polyamines.
• the compounds used as the second starting component that is, the compounds which contain more than one epoxide and/or halohydrin group in the molecule, include primarily epichlorohyd-rin and dichlorohydrins as well as their reactive reaction products which contain more than one epoxide and/or halohydrin group in the molecule.
• Examples of mono and/or poly-functional derivatives of polyalkylene oxides of the above-indicated type are those derivatives of polyalkylene oxides which contain, as reactive groups, chlorohydrin radicals, glycidyl radicals, halogen or other radicals capable of forming anions, such as sulfuric acid radicals, alkylsulfonic acid radicals and the like.
• the polyalkylene oxide groups present in these compounds may be of various molecular size, but, in general, the starting materials are selected so that a total of about 3 to 70 alkylene oxide radicals are present in the molecule.
• Ethylene oxide is primarily suitable as an alkylene oxide; however, other cyclic oxides, such as propylene oxide or cyclohexanepxide as well as corresponding mixtures, may also be used.
• the alkylene oxide chains may also be interrupted, for example, by a dicarboxylic or diisocyanate radical.
• examples of compounds which may be used as starting materials for the preparation of the substituted polyamines, and by the radicals of which the polyamines are characterized, are the following: Monoand bis-chlorohydrin ethers of polyalkylene oxides,
• these compounds are condensed with polyamines which contain at least two nitrogen groups containing replaceable hydrogen atoms in the molecule.
• polyalkylene polyamines are preferred, but other polyamines, such as those of an aromatic nature, may also be used. Examples of such amines are the following: ethylene diamine, diethylene triamine, dipropylene triamine, triethylene tetramine, 1,4-phenylene diamine, 1,4-diamino cyclohexane and the like.
• Polyalkoxylated polyamines which are derived from ldipropylene triamine have been found to be particularly suitable because they produce light-stable synthetics which are light in color.
• the reaction of the above-mentioned starting components for the formation of the polyalkoxylated polyamines used as starting materials is effected in accordance with known methods.
• the quantitative ratios of the starting materials, the chain length and the reaction conditions are preferably selected so that products are obtained which are readily water-soluble, which may be achieved without difiiculty by variation of the length of the polyalkylene oxide chains and of the amine component.
• the quantities of the polyamines be such that after the completed reaction the polyalkylene oxylated polyamines contain a sufiicient number of reactive amino groups which are capable of reaction with epichlorohydrin or dichlorohydrin or with the compounds containing epoxide and/or halohydrin groups.
• reaction products of these compounds which still contain reactive epoxide or halohydrin groups such as reaction products of epichl-orohydrin or dichlorohydrin with glycols, diglycols, polyalkylene oxides, glycerine, dicarboxylic acids, polycarboxylic acids, polyvalent phenols and the like, may also be used with advantage.
• reaction of these compounds with the alkylene oxylated polyamines proceeds smoothly. It may be carried out without or in the presence of organic solvents or water as well as acid-binding substances, such as caustic soda, sodium carbonate, magnesium carbonate and the like.
• Step A 180 kg. of liquid polyglycol 600 were placed into a vessel provided with a heating and cooling device, a reflux cooler, a thermometer and a stirring device. 2.7 kg. of tin tetrachloride were then allowed to flow slowly into the liquid at about 30 C., accompanied by stirring.
