Description
United States Patent Oifice 3,591,327 Patented July 6, 1971 Int. Cl. Dtl6p /00 US. Cl. 8166 11 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Aromatic polyamide fibers which are hardly dyeable with commercial dyes such as acid dyes, metal complex dyes, direct dyes and the like can readily be dyed with such dyes to give a deep colored dyed product by treating the fibers in a bath containing as an accelerator one or more of alkylbenzene and alkylnaphthalene where at least one hydrogen atom of the alkyl moiety is substituted with halogen, or derivatives thereof in which the aromatic ring of said compounds is substituted by an alkyl group or a halogen atom. The accelerator may be applied before or during dyeing. The amount of accelerator used in the treating bath is 3 to 30 g./ liter.
The present invention relates to a process for efiiciently dyeing hardly dyeable polyamide fibers consisting of aromatic compounds.
Similarly to aliphatic polyamide fibers, for instance, such as nylon 6 and nylon 6.6, aromatic polyamide have a dye seat for anion dyes such as acid dyes, metal complex dyes, direct dyes and the like, however aromatic polyamide fiber cannot be dyed in deep shade with such dyes according to ordinary dyeing method. This is considered to be ascribable to the fact that because physical structure of said fibers (for example, polyhexamethylene terep'hthalamide fibers) is compact in physical structure and second order transition point of said fibers is very high (about 180 (2.), compared with those of nylon 6 and nylon 6.6, kinetic behavior of fiber molecules cannot be incurred actively, or that because structure of said fibers is compact from physical point of view, dye molecules cannot sufficiently be diffused into the inside of the fibers.
That is, hardly dyeable aromatic polyamide fibers cannot suificiently be dyed by a conventionally known method in which aliphatic polyamide fibers, for instance, such as nylon 6 and nylon 6.6 are dyed with acid dyes, metal complex dyes and direct dyes, or conventionally known method, i.e. so-called high temperature and high pressure dyeing method, in which hardly dyeable polyester fibers are efiiciently dyed with disperse dyes. Furthermore, said aromatic polyamide fibers cannot be dyed to give a sufficiently dyed product by such a dyeing method, wherein organic compounds, for instance, such as methylsalicylic acid, methylnaphthalene, chlorobenzene, orthophenylphenol and the like as an accelerator. As an accelerator used in dyeing said fibers with acid dyes, metacresol and paracresol have been reported in Textile Research Journal, vol. 35, pp. 999-1008, Aromatic polyamide fiber. This method, however, is not found to be satisfactory therefor.
As a result of extensive studies in methods of dyeing hardly dyeable aromatic polyamide fibers, the present inventors have succeeded in dyeing said fibers with acid dyes, metal complex dyes, direct dyes and the like to give a sufficient deep colored dyed product. The fibers are treated with one or more of alkylbenzene or alkylnaphthalene whose one or more of hydrogen atoms of the alkyl moiety is substituted with halogen, or alkylor halogen-nuclear substituted derivatives thereof.
Alkylbenzene and alkylnaphthalene whose one or more of hydrogen atoms of the alkyl moiety is substituted with halogen, and alkylor halogen-nuclear substituted derivatives thereof as used in the present invention include benzylchloride, benzylbromide, benzalc'hloride, benzalbromide, benzotrichloride, benzotribromide, a-ChlOIO- ethylbenzene, B-chloroethylbenzene, a-brornoethylbenzene, B-bromoethylbenzene, oor mor p-methylbenzylchloride, 0-, or mor p-chlorobenzyldichloride, o-, or mor p-bromobenzylchloride, o-, or mor p-methylbenzylchloride, o-, or mor p-chlorobenzylbromide, o-, or mor p-bromobenzylbromide, 1- or 2-(chloromethyl)-naphthalene, 2 (dichloromethyl) naphthalene, 1 (fit-chloroethyl)-naphtha1ene, lor 2-(bromoethyl)-naphthalene, l-(a-bromomethyl)-naphthalene, lor Z-(fl-bromoethyD- naphthalene, 2-methyl-1-(chloromethyl)-naphthalene, 2- chloro-l-(chloromet'hyl)-naphthalene and the like.
The aromatic polyamide fibers as used in the present invention are the fibers consisting of such compounds as represented by the following general Formula 1 or 2.
n1 is 1-12 ml is 30-200 (average polymerization degree) n2 is 1-l2 m2 is 30-200 (average polymerization degree) Referring now to practical operation of the method of the present invention, the dye bath is prepared by emulsifying and dispersing in a stabilized state 3-30 g./l. of one or more of members of alkylbenzene, or alkylnaphthalene whose alkyl moiety being substituted with halogen, or alkylor halogen-nuclear substituted derivatives thereof in a dye bath in which general conditions for dyeing conventional polyamide fibers, for instance, such as nylon 6 and nylon 6.6 with acid dyes are satisfied, and adding thereto a surfactant necessary for emulsifying and dispersing said accelerator in the dye bath in a stabilized state. Into the thus prepared dye bath, aromatic polyamide fibers are dipped and treated at a temperature within a temperature range of about C. and below 130 C. for more than 30 minutes and within 180 minutes, preferably for about minutes, whereby the dyes are rapidly diffused into the fibers by the action of the aforesaid compounds being present in the dye bath.
The method of the present invention can also be carried out by previously emulsifying and dispersing in a bath more than 10 g./l. of the aforesaid accelerator and a surfactant necessary for emulsifying and dispersing said accelerator into the bath in a stabilized state, and then dipping the fibers into said bath to pretreat at a temperature within a temperature range of above 80 C. and below C. for 30 minutes, then the dyeing is carried out under the conditions in accordance with conventionally general dyeing method.
When the amount of accelerator to be added to a dye bath is less than the aforesaid range, the effect thereof becomes poor, and when it exceeds the aforesaid range, not only no increase in its effect in proportion to an increase in the amount used can be expected but also dyeability of the fibers is hindered. Furthermore, in case an accelerator is added to a pretreatment bath, the highest effect can be obtained at the amount of more than 10 g./l.
According to the dyeing method of the present invention, which comprises using a special accelerator, aromatic polyamide fibers can readily be dyed with acid dyes,
metal complex dyes and direct dyes to give a deep shade product, which could not have been dyed with dyes other than disperse dyes. Among the metal complex dyes, there are included a known class of dyes called Irgalan Dyes which are described in the article The Irgalan Dyes Neutral-dyeing Metal-complex Dyes by G. Schetty in the Journal of the Society of Dyers and Colourists, vol 71, pp. 705724 (1955). In addition thereto, it is possible to obtain a dyed product having brilliancy and wide range of hues, which cannot be obtained in the case of dyeing with disperse dyes.
The following examples are given to illustrate the invention but they are not to be construed as limitation of the scope of the present invention.
