Definitions

  • the solution containing the acidified halogen-containing shrink-resistanceimparting oxidizing agent is an unstable one and is freshly prepared from stable solutions as it is used up.
  • the rate of admixture of the stable solutions is correlated with the rate of pickup of liquor by the wool so that the volume of prepared treating liquor remains constant and complete renewal thereof takes place in l to 15 minutes.
  • Woolen materials which are available in continuous form include yarns, tops and woven and knitted fabrics consisting of or containing wool. Lengths which serve as a continuous form may also be formed by sewing together knitted garments such as socks: these are then separated after completion of the treatment.
  • a process for imparting shrink resistance to wool and wool-containing materials which comprises wetting-out a continuous form of such a material with an aqueous liquor containing (a) a wetting agent, (b) a halogen-containing shrink-resistanceimparting oxidizing agent for wool and (c) a source of hydrogen ion other than a per acid present in an amount sufficient to reduce the pH value of the solution to below 5, the anion of said source of hydrogen ion being inert with respect to said halogen-containing oxidizing agent, and substantially immediately after wetting-out, passing the wetted-out material through the nip between a pair of rollers so as to ensure that the material is unifonnly impregnated with a controlled amount of said liquor and maintaining said controlled amount of liquor in contact with said material until at least a desired amount of said halogen-containing oxidizing agent has reacted with the wool with which it is in contact.
  • the pH value of the solution is reduced to
  • metered quantities of aqueous solutions of said halogen-containing oxidizing agent and of said source of hydrogen ion are fed into said aqueous liquor to maintain a substantially constant composition, which quantities are correlated with the rate of pickup of liquor by the woolen materials undergoing treatment so that (a) the volume of liquor remains substantially constant and (b) complete renewal of liquor takes place in l to minutes.
  • While the invention may be performed in various manners and employing various halogen-containing reagents, it is of especial application to the treatment of wool with sodium and potassium dichloroisocyanurates in aqueous baths at pH values below 5.0.
  • the nature of the changes which occur when an aqueous solution of these salts is treated with a source of hydrogen ion is not yet fully understood, but it is believed to involve inter alia replacement of alkali metal ion by hydrogen ion in the dichloroisocyanurate molecule and subsequent isomerization of the latter. It is assumed that available chlorine is derived from an isomerized form of dichloroisocyanuric acid.
  • the source of hydrogen ion may be a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, a strong organic acid such as trichloroacetic acid or an acid salt of a strong polybasic acid such as sodium or potassium hydrogen sulfate.
  • the source of hydrogen ion should, however, be free from peroxy groups since such compounds per se are oxidizing agents which react with wool and their use gives rise to a special problem.
  • the use, for example, of perrnonosulfuric acid or peracetic acid is outside the scope of the present process.
  • aqueous solution of the halogen-containing substance may contain a wetting agent. While any kind of wetting agent may be employed an anionic or a nonionic wetting agent is preferred.
  • these two solutions in metered quantities are admixed only shortly prior to application to the woolen material undergoing treatment.
  • the concentrations of the two solutions and the proportions in which they are admixed should be such as to secure a pH value in the admixture below 5, preferably between 2.5 and 4.5 and most preferably between 2.5 and 3.5. Since the resulting solution is unstable, this admixture should only take place shortly before the resulting liquor is to be used. Lower pH values such as 0.5 or L0 are permissible but are not necessary.
  • the woolen material is supplied with a controlled amount of treating liquor by passage through a bath of small capacity which receives liquor from the reservoirs referred to above.
  • the liquids from the two reservoirs may, and preferably are, mixed on their way to the treating bath.
  • the wetted-out material is then substantially immediately passed between the nip of a pair of precision rollers adjoining the exit from the bath. The nip at these rollers is so adjusted as to ensure that the woolen material passing therethrough retains within its interstices a volume of treating liquor containing an amount of the halogen-containing shrinkresistance-imparting substance sufficient to impart to the material a predetermined shrink resistance within a given time.
  • the liquor-containing goods After passing through the precision nip the liquor-containing goods are run forward over and under rollers or on a brattice or scray or otherwise retained in contact with the liquor for a time sufiicient to allow the whole of the halogencontaining substance, or any predetennined proportion thereof which will suffice to impart the desired shrink re sistance effect, to react with the woolen fibers.
  • the pickup of aqueous liquor at the nip may be 50-250 percent, preferably -150 percent, of the weight of the woolen material.
  • the time of residence or immersion in the bath is substantially only sufficient to ensure that the goods are fully wetted out by the aqueous liquor in the bath.
  • a preferred time of residence or immersion of the wool in the bath is l to 2 seconds. This is sufficient time to ensure thorough penetration and wetting out but insufficient time to allow any significant exhaustion of the bath liquor.
  • the concentration of the liquor in the treatment bath remains virtually identical with that of the liquor fed into the bath throughout the process.
  • a bath having a capacity of l to 2 gallons of liquor is contemplated although smaller and somewhat larger baths may be used if the circumstances, such as the rate of removal of liquor from the bath, require.
  • the volume of liquid admitted to the bath is correlated with the rate of pickup of liquor by the woolen materials passing through the bath so that the complete renewal of the bath liquor takes place in a period of l to 15 minutes: preferably the time for complete renewal is less than l0 minutes. lt has been found that these times are insufficient for a substantial loss of chlorine from the treating liquor to occur before coming into contact with the woolen material. Thus, the material as it passes through the bath takes up a controlled amount of virtually fresh liquor. There has been no opportunity under the conditions outlined for any extraneous substances present in the woolen materials, such as combing oils present in tops, to pass from the materials into the bath and to accumulate therein and interfere with the reaction.
  • the volume of liquid admitted to the bath is correlated with the rate of pickup of liquor by the materials passing therethrough.
  • the bath is filled to the desired extent with liquor of the desired composition.
  • the volume of liquor in the bath is then maintained substantially constant throughout substantially the whole of the run by metering fresh solution from each of the reservoirs into the bath in such proportions as to maintain the composition of the bath substantially constant. Only during the last few minutes of a run should the volume of liquor in the bath be allow to fall.
  • the woolen material is supplied with a controlled amount of treating liquor by substantially uniformly spraying liquor from a tank on to both sides of the material,
  • the spraying may be done from a manifold located upon each side of goods passing upwards towards a nip.
  • the tank receives liquor from the reservoirs referred to above and devices are provided to enable the contents of the tank to be replenished as the liquor is used. Accurate adjustment and uniform distribution of the pickup is secured by passing the sprayed material between the nip of a pair of rollers in the manner already indicated.

  • EXAMPLE 1 Ten continuous lengths of wool tops, each weighing 20 gms. per meter are passed through a bath having a capacity of 4.5 liters filled with an aqueous solution containing 4.5 percent by weight of acetic acid, 1.0 percent of a nonionic wetting agent known as Tergitol TMN and 1.73 percent of sodium dichloroisocyanurate. This solution has a pH value of substantially 3.5. After passing through the solution the wool enters a precision nip adjusted so that the pickup of solution is 150 percent of the weight of the wool. The speed of the wool is 5 meters per minute; thus 1 kg. of wool passes through the bath and nip each minute, taking with it 5 liters of the above treating solution,
  • the bath is kept full by metering into it a liquor obtained by admixing (i) 750 cc. per minute ofa solution containing 9 per cent by weight of acetic acid and 2 percent of Tergitol TMN and (ii) 750 cc. per minute of 3.46 percent by weight of sodium dichloroisocyanurate having a pH value of 6.4.

  • Such admixture takes place immediately prior to introduction to the treatment bath.
  • the wool After passage through the nip the wool contains 2.6 percent of its own weight of sodium dichloroisocyanurate at pH 3.5. The wool is then allowed to fall upon a brattice moving at such a speed that the wool remains thereon for 1.5 to 2.0 minutes during which at least percent of the dichloroisocyanurate is exhausted. The wool then passes through the following baths: (i) a rinse bath of warm running water, (ii) aqueous 1 percent sodium sulphite solution, (iii) two successive rinses in water. The wool is then dried by continuous passage through a drying chamber.
  • the bath is kept full by metering into it a liquor obtained by admixing (i) 750 cc. per minute of a solution containing 106 cc. per liter of sodium hypochlorite solution (15 percent available chlorine by weight) and (i1) 750 cc. per minute of an aqueous solution containing 36 cc. per liter of concentrated hydrochloric acid (36 percent BC] by weight) and g. per liter of Tergitol TNM. These two solutions are stable for long periods and they are only admixed immediately prior to use.
  • the bath Since the bath has a capacity of 4.5 liters and the mixture is used up at the rate of 1.5 liters per minute, the mixture remains in the bath for a period of 3 minutes. During this 3 minutes the loss of chlorine from the bath is negligible.
  • the dwell time of the wool in the bath is 1.5 to 2.0 seconds.
  • the wool id After passing the precision nip the wool id allowed to fall upon the brattice moving at such a speed that the wool remains thereon for 1 minute and then passes through the following baths; (a) rinse bath of water, (b) aqueous 2 percent sodium sulfite solution at pH 8.5 and (c) two further rinse baths of water. The dwell time in these baths is seconds. The material is them dried.
