  • AITTORNE 3,690,811 ACID DYEING FOR TERTIARY AMINATED POLY. AMIDE, POLYOLEFIN AND POLYAli HDE BLENDS AND DISPERSE DYEING OF SAID POLYOLEFIN AND POLYESTER BLENDS Kermit G. Homing, Waynesboro, Va., assignor to Thiokol Chemical Corporation, Bristol, Pa. Filed June 1, 1970, Ser. No. 42,357 Int. Cl. D061: 3/82 US. Cl.
  • This invention relates to a dyed tufted carpet in which both the carpet backing and the tufted face yarns are synthetic materials and are dyed to the same shade of the same color.
  • the invention relates to a synthetic fabric comprising a piece dyeable polypropylenepolyamide composition backing which dyes to a similar shade, described in the dyeing art as a union shade, in competition with tufted face yarns of nylon or polyester material, and wherein both the backing and the face yarns are dyed with the same acid or disperse dye in a single dye bath in a single dyeing operation.
  • the backing and the face yarns are normally colorless or light beige colored materials which in themselves are unattractive for most fabric uses. Accordingly, dyeing of the materials ordinarily must be done to manufacture an attractive fabric.
  • the backing can be prepared from a ribbon filament which has been dyed by incorporation of a dye in the melted plastic material from which the filament is extruded.
  • the backing may be dyed after it has been woven into a fabric.
  • the face yarn similarly may be dyed in its prefilamented or fibered form or after it has been formed into the yarn filament or fibered and twisted into a face yarn.
  • the carpet tufter usually will be obtaining his backing material from one supplier and his face yarns from a different supplier, he may encounter considerable difliculty in obtaining a close match as to shade between the color of the face yarn and the color of the backing, particularly when he is tufting a carpet of a bright solid color, for example, a bright orange.
  • Some carpet manufacturers are integrated in their operations to dye the carpet after it has been manufactured, and prefer to use an undyed face yarn in order to avoid stocking a large variety of colors of yarn, or for some other reason of economy. In the latter situation, the carpet manufacturer must be able to dye the face yarn to any desired color and shade.
  • the face yarn assume the same color and shade as the backing, so that the tufting need not be as dense as would be required to hide or minimize show-through when the carpeting is bent as discussed above. If both the carpet backing and the face yarn are used in an undyed condition in making the carpet and then are dyed simultaneously, it has been found that the face yarn and the backing material often do not dye to the same shade. This result may be due in part to the difference in sizes of the filaments or fibers of the face yarn as compared to the filaments of the backing, and the consequent optical effects which result, as well as in the difference in dye receptivities of a heavy thick ribbon and a thin fiber.
  • the backing for the tufted carpet is woven from large ribbon monofilaments of 500 to 100.0 denier, whereas the face yarn may be formed of fine fibers of about 15 denier each.
  • Face yarns are usually derived from synthetic polymers, for example, polyamides, such as nylon, or polyesters, which have high dye afiinity and which, accordingly, can be dyed readily to a wide variety of shades of color as well as to a wide variety of colors.
  • polyamides such as nylon
  • polyesters which have high dye afiinity and which, accordingly, can be dyed readily to a wide variety of shades of color as well as to a wide variety of colors.
  • polypropylene which is used mostly as a backing material and not as a face yarn, does not readily accept an organic dye.
  • a large variety of modified polypropylenes have been developed which makes the polypropylene composition thus formed a dyeable material.
  • a modified polypropylene while it accepts a dye, may not at the same time accept the dye in such a way and amount that it will assume the same shade of color as that of the face yarn which is tufted into the backing fabric, when the two are dyed simultaneously, in the same dye bath.
  • the present invention overcomes this problem.
  • the present invention is directed to a dyed synthetic material fabric, particularly carpeting, in which the backing material comprises a polyolefin composition containing a basic polyamide dye site additive which creates in the backing dyeability characteristics which cause the backing material when union dyed, after being tufted with a polyamide or polyester face yarn, to assume substantially the same shade of color as is assumed by the face yarn when the carpet fabric is dyed in a single bath containing the same dye for both the backing and the face yarns.
  • the term union dyed as used throughout the disclosure of this invention is intended to have the usual definition for goods dyed by a union dyeing process, Le. a process which is a one-bath process as a result of which the same color or shade can be imparted to two or more textile fibers or yarns in the same piece or material.
  • the polyolefin composition used in preparing the filament ribbon from which the carpet backing is woven comprises from about 80 to 99.5% by weight of a stereoregular or isotactic polyolefin and 0.5 to by weight of a basic polyamide comprising the reaction product of an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid or derivative thereof and a polyamine containing not more than two primary amino groups and one or more tertiary amino groups, and wherein said basic polyamide is present in an amount suflicient to provide 0.1 to 1.0% by weight of basic nitrogen in the composition and said basic polyamide has a crystallite melting point in the range 50250 C.
  • the polyamide is one derived by reacting azelaic acid, methyl bis- (3-aminopropyl) amine and hexamethylenediamine.
  • the polyolefin is selected from linear polyethylene, stereoregular poly-(4-methylpentene-1) and isotactic polypropylene.
  • FIG. 1 A union dyed tufted carpet made according to the invention is illustrated in FIG. 1 in comparison to a nonunion dyed piece of tufted carpet which is illustrated in FIG. 2.
  • carpet 1 is shown to have both its woven backing 3 and 3a dyed substantially to the same shade as the face yarn 6 which has been tufted into the backing. The area around 3a has been exposed by pulling out tufts of the material to illustrate the sameness of shade of the backing with the shade of color of the face yarn.
  • FIG. 1 thus graphically illustrates a union dyed product of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 shows that the woven backing 4 and 4a has a different shade of coloring than does the face yarn 5.
  • the area around 4a has been exposed by pulling out tufts.
  • the product of FIG. 1 is further distinguished over the product illustrated in FIG. 2 in that the woven backing 3a has been woven from a polyolefin-polyamide composition according to the invention, whereas the backing 4a has been woven from 100% isotactic polypropylene filament ribbon.
  • the polyolefin compositions used in practicing the invention are known compositions and are taught, for example, in US. Patent 3,433,853.
  • the basic polyamides and their method of use in preparing the polyolefin compositions used in practicing the present invention also are taught in U.S. 3,433,853 and are incorporated by reference into the present invention as materials useful in the practice in the present invention.
  • the basic polyamides, according to the invention are condensation polymers which are substantially insoluble in water and which have a crystallite melting point (measured using a Fisher- Johns melting point apparatus) of from about 50 C. to about 250 C.
  • the crystallite melting point of the basic polymer exceeds about 250 C.
  • the polyolefin composition containing it becomes less easily shaped into uniform articles.
  • These polymers moreover, do not undergo branching and crosslinking during extrusion of the polyolefin compositions and do not degrade during processing.

  • the pellets are then used as a textileforming substance to form filaments in a known way through filament forming dies from a bath of the melted polymer composition.
  • the pelleting operation may, if desired, be omitted and filaments formed directly from the molten blend by use of suitable dies.
