Sodium chlorite is widely used for bleaching fibrous materials made of cellulosic fibers, such as, cotton, hemp, rayon, etc. and synthetic fibers, such as, nylon, polyester, polyacrylonitrile, etc. For bleaching with sodium chlorite, an organic acid, such as, oxalic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, sulfamic acid acid or an inorganic acid, such as, sulfuric acid has been used as an activating agent for decomposing sodium chlorite to generate chlorine dioxide gas. However, when such known activating agent is used, generation of the chlorine dioxide gas cannot be controlled as desired but an excess amount of the gas will inevitably result. This gives rise, not only, to waste of the chlorine source, but also, causes corrosion of the apparatus and deterioration in the fibrous materials. Further, oxalic acid and sulfamic acid per se corrode metal and, therefore, when such acids are used, metal containers undergo marked corrosion. For these reasons, it has heretofore been necessary to add a gas controlling agent and/or an anticorrosive agent to the bath. But even the use of such chemical agents has not achieved satisfactory results. Moreover, use of these organic acids elevates the BOD (biochemical oxygen demand) of the waste liquid from bleaching treatment and requires troublesome aftertreatment.
Accordingly, an object of this invention is to provide a novel activating agent for sodium chlorite which in itself is low in metal-corroding properties and is capable of effectively decomposing sodium chlorite without generating an excess of chlorine dioxide gas that will cause corrosion and without noticeably elevating the BOD of the liquid.
Another object of this invention is to provide a composition capable of bleaching fibrous materials made of v cellulosic fibers and various synthetic fibers to a high degree without causing corrosion to the apparatus and deterioration in the fibrous materials.
Another object of this invention is to provide a method for bleaching fibrous materials whereby such fibrous materials can be bleached effectively without any deterioration in their properties.
These objects ot this invention will become more apparent from the description to follow.
The bleaching composition of this invention comprises an aqueous medium having dissolved therein sodium chlorite and sodium polyphosphate in an amount of 0.8 to 3.5 times the weight of C10 contained in the sodium chlorite, the sodium polyphosphate being such that a molar ratio of Na O to P (this molar ratio being hereinafter referred to as R") is greater than 0.1
but less than 1.0 and that 1 wt percent aqueous solution thereof has a pH of not higher than 3.
The present inventors researches have shown that a specific sodium polyphosphate, when used as an activating agent for sodium chlorite, decomposes sodium chlorite to continuously generate a suitable amount of C in conformity with the need for bleaching, without causing corrosion to the apparatus and deterioration in the fibrous materials due to the generation of 2 excess ClO but ensuring efficient bleaching of the fibrous materials.
The sodium polyphosphate to be used in accordance with this invention must be such that the molar ratio, R, is greater than 0.1 but less than 1.0 and that a 1 wt percent aqueous solution thereof has a pH of not higher than 3. It is only such sodium polyphosphate of the foregoing characteristics that assures outstanding effects when acting as an activating agent for sodium chlorite. Such sodium polyphosphate will hereinafter be referred to as sodium ultraphosphate. In the case of the other usual polyphosphates, such as, sodium hexametaphosphate, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium pyrophosphate and the like in which R is equal to or larger than 1, these are essentially different in properties from sodium ultraphosphate in which 0. l R l .0. In fact, unlike the latter, the pH of a 1 wt percent aqueous solution of the former is 7 to 9 and they do not display an activating effect on sodium chlorite at all.
The sodium ultraphosphate to be used in accordance with this invention may preferably be such that 0.3 all 9-8- Th so la a tta ao n tat t9, e u d in accordance with this invention is known and is readily available and easy to manufacture. For example, sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate or sodium phosphate is mixed with phosphoric acid or phosphorus pentoxide in such an amount that 0. l R l .0, and the mixture is melted at about 650 C for reaction, whereby the desired sodium ultraphosphate will be obtained.
The bleaching composition of this invention is prepared by dissolving sodium chlorite and sodium ultraphosphate in water. The concentration of sodium chlorite usually is 1 to 3 g/liter, preferably 2.0 to 2.7 g/liter. Sodium ultraphosphate is used in an amount of 0.8 to 3.5 times the weight of C10 contained in the sodium chlorite. If the sodium ultraphosphate is used in an amount of less than the above amount, it will not effectively act on sodium chlorite, although an amount of more than the above will cause damage to fibrous materials. It is preferable to use sodium ultraphosphate in an amount of 1.0 to 3.0 times the weight of C10 contained in the sodium chlorite. If the pH of the bleaching composition of this invention is very low, the fibrous materials to be treated may be deteriorated, so that it is desired that the composition have a pH of 2.5 to 5.0.
To improve the hand of the fibrous materials treated and more efficiently preclude any possible deterioration in the fibrous materials, at least one compound from the group of urea, hydrazine and ammonium phosphate may be added alone or in admixture with one another to the composition. lt is desired that such additives be used in an amount of 20 to 50 wt percent, based on the .weight of the sodium chlorite. If the amount exceeds 50 wt percent, the stability of the bath will be impaired which is undesirable. The composition may further contain various known additives, such as,
a surface active agent to assure improved penetration I of effective ingredients into the fibrous materials to be treated, or fluorescent dye to add to the whiteness of the fibrous materials.
The present composition can be used for bleaching various fibrous material such as fibers, yarns, woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, nonwoven fabrics, etc., capable of being bleached with sodium chlorite. For instance, it can be applied to fibrous materials made of cellulosic fibers such as cotton, hemp, rayon, etc., and made of various synthetic fibers such as nylon, polyester, polyacrylonitrile. etc. Bleaching is conducted under the same conditions as heretofore employed for sodium chlorite. With this invention. bleaching can be effected even within a shorter period of time under milder conditions. More specifically, the fibrous materials to be bleached is placed into a bath of room temperature and the bath is then heated to about 80 to 98 C to effect bleaching of the fibrous materials-The ratio in weight of the fibers to the bath may suitably be 1 5 to l 50. The heating time may vary in accordance with the kinds of fibrous materials to be treated. For fibrous materials made of acrylic fibers, for example, good results will usually be achieved by heating for about 20 to 30 minutes, and for cotton, for about.30 to 60 minutes. This is about half the time required for bleaching with sodium chlorite conducted in usual manner. The bleached fibrous materials are then dechlorinated as by treating with an aqueous solution of acid sodium sulfite in conventional manner and washed with water and dried.
For a better understanding of the invention examples are given below.
