United States Patent 3,201,190 DYED CELLULOSE ESTER TEXTILE MATERIALS RESETANT T0 CHLGRINIE FADHNG Duncan G. Carmichael, hlingsport, Tenn, assignor to Eastman Kodak Company, Rochester, N.Y., a corporation of New Jersey No Drawing. Filed May 28, 1962, Ser. No. $7,873 13 Claims. (Cl. 8-61) This invention relates to the treatment of cellulose esters to improve the resistance of dyeings thereon to the deleterious effect of chlorine and to said dyed cellulose esters having improved resistance to chlorine. The invention is particularly directed to dyed cellulose acetate textile materials the colors of which have been rendered resistant to chlorine attack as exemplified in swimwear upon exposure to chlorinated swimming pool water.
It is recognized in the art that dyed cellulose ester textile materials, even though dyed with dyestuffs which yield dyeings thereon having excellent fastness to light, gas, and washing, for example, nevertheless discolor or fade upon exposure to aqueous reactive chlorine in concentrations such as are used to disinfect swimming and Consequently the textile trade has long sought for means for rendering the colored cellulose ester fabrics employed in bathing suits resistant to chlorinated swimming pool fading.
After extensive investigation I have discovered a procedure whereby such discoloration or fading may be obviated or greatly minimized as will be set forth in detail hereinafter.
It is an object of my invention to provide a dyed cellulose ester which is resistant to the action of reactive chlorine in concentrations such as are used to disinfect water in bathing pools. Another object of my invention is the production of dyed cellulose ester textile materials containing a chlorine fading inhibitor which has an affinity for said cellulose ester textile material and which does not discolor or cause fading when exposed to light and aqueous reactive chlorine. A further object of my invention is the production of dyed cellulose ester textile materials containing a chlorine fading inhibitor which are suitable for bathing suits and which have good resistance to chlorine fading and good fastness to water bleeding. A particular object of my invention is to provide dyed cellulose acetate textile materials which have good resistance to chlorine fading and good fastness to water bleeding.
By cellulose esters I contemplate cellulose alkyl carboxylic acid esters having two to four carbon atoms in the acid groups thereof; such esters include, for example, both hydrolyzed and unhydrolyzed cellulose acetate, cellulose propionate, cellulose butyrate, cellulose acetatepropionate and cellulose acetate-butyrate.
I have discovered that the color of dyed cellulose ester textile materials which have been dyed with dyestuifs which are not normally fast to the action of aqueous reactive chlorine solutions may be rendered fast thereto by incorporating in said cellulose ester textile materials 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane having the formula:
The presence of the 2, 2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane in.
corporated in the cellulose ester in any desired and convenient manner. For example, it may be incorporated into a solution of the cellulose ester before such solution is formed into a shaped article such as a filament or fiber; or the inhibiting agent may be applied to the cellulose ester textile material in fiber, filament, or fabric form, for example, either before dyeing or during the dyeing operation. Preferably, however, the 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane is applied after dyeing.
The 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane inhibiting agent may be applied to the dyed cellulose ester textile material in the form of a solution in a solvent, such as ethyl alcohol or methyl alcohol, which does not have an unde siraole solvent action on the cellulose ester material.
The 2,2-bis(p-hydr0xyphenol) propane inhibiting agent may also be applied to the dyed cellulose ester textile material in the form of a stable aqueous dispersion. A suitable aqueous paste dispersion can be prepared by ball-milling an aqueous suspension of Bisphenol A (4,4'- isopropylidene diphenoD, glycerine and Marasperse N (a sodium lignosulfonate), as follows: 50 pounds of the Bisphenol A, 5 pounds of glycerine, 5 pounds of Mararasperse N and 40 pounds of water are added to a 30- gallon ball mill and milled until a IO-gram sample filters through a Reeves Angel No. 230 filter paper, after which the homogeneous paste is discharged into resin line-d steel containers for use. (Bisphenol A and Marasperse N are trademarks of Monsanto Chemical Company and the Marathon Corporation, respectively.)
The inhibiting agent may also be directly applied to the material undergoing treatment as an aqueous suspension which has been prepared by grinding the Bisphenol A to a paste in the presence of a sulfonated oil, Turkey red oil, soap, oleyl glyceryl sulfate, sodium lignosulfonate, or other suitable dispersing agents, then dispersing this resulting paste in water.
The amount of 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane i-nhibiting agent incorporated into the cellulose ester textile material preferably ranges from 1% to 16% by weight of the cellulose ester. Thus, forexaniple, when the inhibitor is applied in a padding operation, the pick-up of the padding roll should be adjusted so that suflicient inhibitor solution is retained in the cellulose ester textile material being treated to give 1% to 19% of the inhibiting agent based. on the weight of the cellulose ester textile material.
My invention is described more particularly with reference to cellulose acetate. However, the invention is applicable to any of the other cellulose esters disclosed herem.
Many inhibitors have a tendency to discolor in aqueous reactive chlorine solutions. However, the 2,2-bis(p hydroxyphenoDpropane employed in my invention exhibits no such tendency but demonstrates a very high inhibiting activity as shown by the following examples which illustrate my invention. Parts are expressed as parts by weight.
Example I PK-129 F. After padding and drying, the fabric retained 2.5%3.0% of the 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenoDpropane. The resulting fabric had a greatly improved resistance to aqueous reactive chlorine fading as shown by no appreciable fading after it had been given an AATCC test No. 63-1957 for chlorinated pool water. It also :9 e9 showed no fading when given a Jantzen test using p.p.m. of chlorine in an aqueous solution with a 1:100 liquor ratio at room temperature with agitation for four hours.
An undyed cellulose acetate fabric, treated in the aforementioned manner, also exhibited improved resistance to aqueous chlorine fading when subsequently dyed with l,S-dihydroxy-8-nitro-4-aminoanthraquinone and tested.
Example II Similar results were obtained when Example I was repeated, using 40 parts of ethanol in place of methanol.
Example III A cellulose acetate fabric was inhibited during dyeing (in a single step operation) using a dye bath (jig or dyebeck) containing 6% finely dispersed 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol)propane, 2% 1,8-dihydroxy-5-amino-4-(4- B-hydroxyethylanilino)anthraquinone, 1% sodium hexametaphosphate, 1% of an anionic surfactant such as Igepon T-33, all based upon the weight of the fabric. One gallon of methanol was then added to the dye bath per 100 gallons of dye liquor at 120 F. The dye bath temperature was raised to 180 F. in one hour and the fabric rinsed with water and dried. When given the AATCC test No. 631957 or Jantzen test, the fabric showed little or no fading.
Example IV Example III was repeated except that an equal volume of ethanol was used in place of methanol. The resulting dyed fabric shows little or no fading when given the AATCC test No. 6319;57 or the Jantzen test.
Example V A cellulose acetate fabric dyed to a 1% dyeing with the violet dye 1,4-diaminoanthroaquinone was after-treated in a fresh bath containing 3% of finely dispersed 2,2-bis(phydroxyphenol)propane based upon the weight of the fabric and one gallon of methanol per 100 gallons of water. The fabric was treated at 140 F. and dried without rinsing. The resulting fabric had greatly improved resistance to aqueous reactive chlorine fading as was shown by no appreciable fading when tested according to AATCC test No. 63-1957 or the Jantzen test.
Example VI Example V was repeated except that an equal volume of ethanol was used in place of methanol. Similar improved resistance to chlorine attack was noted.
Example VII Example V was repeated using undyed cellulose acetate fibers. When made into fabric and dyed with 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone 1% by weight of the fabric) the violet dyeing obtained also had good resistance to chlorine fading. Generally similar results are obtained using any of the other anthraquinone dyes disclosed herein in place l,4-diaminoanthraquinone.
The dyes which are most benefited by my invention are the 'anthraquinone blue and violet types such as 1,4-diaminoanthraquinone (violet), 1,4-diamino-S-nitroanthraquinone (violet), 1,4-dimethylaminoanthraquinone (violet), 1,S-dihydroxy-8-nitro-4-aminoanthraquinone (blue), 1,8 dihydroxy 5 nitro 4 methylanilinoanthraquinone (blue), and dyes such as 1,8-dihydroxy-5-amino-4-(4'-/5'- hydroxyethylanilino) .anthraquinone, 4-(4'-,8-hyclroxyeth ylanilino)-5-nitro-1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone. Additional dyes, whose dyeings on cellulose esters can be made more resistant to chlorine fading in accordance with my invention, include those of US. Patents 2,641,602; 2,651,- 641 and 2,777,863. When the nitro group present in the anthaquinone compounds of these patents is reduced to an amino group the resultant dyes give dyeings on cellulose esters, such as cellulose acetate which have improved fastness to water bleeding. The reduction can be conveniently carried out by refluxing the dye compound with sodium sulfide in the presence of water as a diluent medium. The dyeings on cellulose esters obtained with these latter compounds also can be made more resistant to chlorine fading when .treated with 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenol) propane in accordance with the present invention. The anthraquinone compounds disclosed herein are illustrative and not limitative of the dye compounds whose dyeings on cellulose esters can be made more resistant to chlorine fading by treatment with 2,2-bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)propane. The anthraquinone compounds disclosed are Water insoluble disperse dye compounds.
I have found the preferred range of my inhibiting agent to be from 1% to 10% based upon the weight of the cellulose ester undergoing treatment. Where the 2,2-bis(phydroxyphenol) propane inhibiting agent is milled for use in the practice of my invention, the particle size is preferably reduced to within a range of from /2 to 20 microns for optimum results.
My invention is utilizable within, but is not limited to, the usual range of chlorine concentration employed in swimming pool water and which generally runs about 5 p.p.m. in this country and as much as 10 p.p.m. abroad.
Cellulose ester swelling agents other than methanol and ethanol that can be used in applying the 2,2-bis (p-hydroxyphenol) propane to the cellulose ester textile materials include, for example, n-propyl alcohol, cyclohexanol, methyl Cellosolve, phenyl Cellosolve, methylethyl ketone 'y-valerolactone and diacetone alcohol.
The afore-mentioned Jantzen test for color fastness to chlorinated swimming pool water utilizes a completely closed system made up of a large reservoir, two exposure chambers, and a pump to lift the water back to the reservoir. To the reservoir containing 20,000 ml. of water at a pH of 7.0, is added 2 ml. of 5% sodium hypochlorite, laboratory reagent grade. This gives an available chlorine content of 5 p.p.m. The charged solution is then tested with a chlorine comparator to confirm the concentration. Four pieces of fabric weighing a total of ten grams are placed in each exposure chamber, making an aggregate sample of 20 grams. The system is sealed and the chlorinated water circulated for four hours at room temperature. The amount of available chlorine within the system will decrease during the test to an extent which is proportionate to the amount of color reduction taking place in the fabric. At the end of the four-hour period, the samples are removed and air dried at room temperature. The results of the test are comparable to 20 hours actual use which, in turn, approximates an average season's use by a consumer.
The Ciba Company, Inc., has also published another method for determining fastness properties of dyes in chlorinated water. While their test employs an available .chlorine concentration of 20 p.p.m. and a liquor ration of 1:100 for four hours at room temperature, that test and the lantzen test show fairly good correlation with each other and also with actual swimming pool use. However, the AATCC test No. 631957 has been indicated by some persons working in this field to not correlate with actual swimming pool use as well as the other two tests.
