Definitions

  • US. Cl. 134-42 9 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method for reconditioning the stained or discolored surfaces of plastic objects to substantially restore them to their original condition which comprises the steps of treating the surface of a plastic object with an aqueous solution of chlorine-containing bleaching agent having a pH or more than 5, then treating the surface thereof with an aqueous solution of sulfur-containing bleaching agent having a pH of more than 5, and thereafter rinsing the surface with water.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method for reconditioning the surface of plastic objects by removing stains and/or discolorations, in which the stained or discolored surface of the plastic object is first treated with an aqueous solution of chlorine-containing bleaching agent, then treated with an aqueous solution of sulfur-containing bleaching agent, and lastly rinsed with water, thereby easily restoring the original cleanliness of the surface of the plastic object.
  • the aqueous solution of the chlorine-containing bleaching agent should have a pH of more than 5.
  • the concentration thereof in terms of available chlorine, is required to be more than p.p.m., and it is preferably within the range of 300-500 p.p.m. for practical use. If the chlorine concentration is less than 100 p.pm. no appreciable reconditioning effect will be obtained, while an excessively high chlorine concentration will not necessarily bring about any corresponding improvement of the reconditioning effect.
  • the higher is the temperature for the bleaching process the shorter will be the time required for the reconditioning process, but, in practice, it is preferred to operate within the range of 4060 C.
  • the method according to the present invention is applicable to general plastic moldings such as tableware, kitchen utensils, dish pans, toys, furniture, and so forth, which are made of a variety of resins, such as ureaformaldehyde resin, melamine-formaldehyde resin, phenol resin, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-styrene coplymer (AS resin), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS resin), polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, unsaturated polyester, polyacrylates and polymethacrylates.
  • resins such as ureaformaldehyde resin, melamine-formaldehyde resin, phenol resin, polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-styrene coplymer (AS resin), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS resin), polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, unsaturated polyester
  • the unsaturated polyester includes one prepared by polycondensating unsaturated polybasic acid such as maleic acid, phthalic acid or isophthalic acid with polyol such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol or glycerol and then vinylpolymerizing the resulting copolymer with a polymerizable monomer, as a crosslinking agent, such as styrene or methylstyrene.
  • unsaturated polybasic acid such as maleic acid, phthalic acid or isophthalic acid
  • polyol such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, propylene glycol or glycerol
  • vinylpolymerizing the resulting copolymer with a polymerizable monomer as a crosslinking agent, such as styrene or methylstyrene.
  • the 44 test plates were divided into 11 groups each group consisting of 4 plates, and the respective groups were treated as shown in the following table. Some groups were immersed in the 1st aqueous solution bath for about 1 min. and then taken out of it and then immersed in the 2nd aqueous solution bath for about 1 min. Then, said groups were taken out of the 2nd aqueous solution bath and were rinsed with flowing warm water and dried in the air. The other groups were immersed only in the 1st aqueous solution bath and taken out of it and were rinsed immediately. The temperature of said aqueous solution baths was adjusted to be 5012 C., in case of the aqueous solution of bleaching agent containing chlorine as well as hydrogen peroxide solution, and 70i2 C. in case of the aqueous solution of bleaching agent containing sulfur.
  • said second treating solution consisting essentially of an aqueous solution of sulfur-containing bleaching agent having a pH of more than 5 and having a concentration of sulfur-containing bleaching agent in the range of of 300-500 p.p.rn., and the concentration of said aqueous solution of the sulfur-containing bleaching agent is about 1 wt. percent.
