Definitions
- This invention involves a method of imparting insect-resistance on carpets, textiles or insulation products which contain wool and/or other animal fibres.
- the most common insecticides used to give wool fibres insect resistance are synthetic pyrethroids, usually permethrin. These are usually applied by adding an aqueous emulsion of the insecticide to wool during scouring, dyeing, tape-scouring or chemical-setting.
- the insecticide active is exhausted into and onto the fibres in the above applications.
- dyebath application typically 95% of the insecticide is exhausted onto the fibre.
- loose wool or yarn scouring application processes a continuous exhaustion equilibrium is reached being partially dependent on fibre throughput and bowl insecticide concentration. In both the above application processes considerable amounts of effluent containing insecticide are produced.
- the purpose and object of this invention is to overcome the problems of pesticides present in discharge effluents i.e. to produce an alternative to traditional aqueous application methods.
- the nature of the invention is to blend a proportion of synthetic or regenerated natural fibre, which has been pre-treated with an effective insecticide, with wool fibres.
- the effective insecticide can be permethrin, an insect growth regulator or any other compound having an insect-resist effect.
- the insect growth regulator can be RH 5992 (Rohm & Hass) and the insect-resist compound can be Abamectin, Lufenuron (Ciba Geigy), Bifenthrin (FMC Corporation), MGK 264 or a perfluoroalkylsulphonate (3M).
- the aim is to add as little as possible to the overall fibre blend so as to minimise the proportion of synthetic or regenerated natural fibres in the blend.
- a secondary but very important feature of the invention is for the pre- treated fibre to contain a high concentration of insecticide (for example permethrin) to impart insect resistance on the whole fibre blend.
- insecticide for example permethrin
- the choice of fibre for treatment and the method of insecticide application to the fibre are key features of the invention.
- Another key factor is that the insecticide treatment is largely fast to subsequent wet processes. This is essential to prevent downstream losses of the insecticide which end up in discharged effluent.
- Low-melt bi-component polyester fibre (PES) (LM-51 , 1 5 den, 76 mm - SAM YANG Co Limited) was pre-treated in a bath containing 1 g/l Topsoft (Dylachem - Precision Processors) for 15 minutes at 40°C.
- PES Low-melt bi-component polyester fibre
- the fibre is then squeezed and added to the application bath which contains: 30% owf Mystox CMP (Catomance) (containing 12% permethrin W/V)
- the bath temperature is raised to 55 °C and held for 60 minutes.
- Fibre is then squeezed and rinsed twice in 40° C rinsewater.
- the fibre generally takes up about 1 5% Mystox CMP on weight fibre (owf) (i.e. 1 .8% w/w permethrin owf).
- the dry fibre was blended with wool in the ratio (95% wool/5% PES) to achieve an overall treatment level of about 0.75% Mystox CMP owf (i.e. 0.09% w/w permethrin owf).
- the fibre was spun into yarn and then tufted into 10mm cut pile carpet.
- the durability of the treatment to shampooing was determined using three shampoo cycles according to the protocol outlined in IWS Test Method 28.
- a 45 °C, 1 Og/I solution of non-ionic detergent was applied to the carpet using a spray/vacuum cleaner (Kerrick Hydra-Vac).
- the spray head was moved over the carpet at a speed of 3cm/sec.
- a second pass was made with vacuum only.
- the sample was dried at room temperature before the second and third respective cleaning cycles.
- the amount of permethrin removed was determined using an established HPLC assay technique. The treatment was found to be 94% fast to the shampoo treatment.
- the resistance of the carpet to insect attack was determined by using protocol of IWS Test Method 25.
- the test species used was Tineola bisselliella. 1 5 larvae of equal size were placed on carpet discs (40mm diameter) in mesh-topped aluminium containers in a controlled environment for fourteen days. Four replicates were used. At the completion of the test the larvae mortalities were determined and carpet damage and weight loss assessed.
- the overall treatment level was 83% fast to this dyeing.
- Low-melt bi-component fibre was treated as in Example 1 . This loose fibre was tested for treatment fastness to a simulated tape-scour train as follows:
- Fibre was passed through a series of scour bowls with a roller-squeeze between each one.
- the treatment level was 92% fast to this wet process.
- Low-melt bi-component PES fibre was treated as in Example 1. This fibre was subjected to a simulated loose-stock dyeing to test for fastness.
- Dye bath contained - 0.5 % Albegal FFA (Ciba Geigy) omw
- the low-melt sheath which constitutes about 50% of a bi-component fibre was doped in the melt with.3% permethrin prior to extrusion to produce an insect-resist fibre for blending with wool containing around 1 .5% permethrin.
- the treated fibre was subsequently blended with wool in the ratio 5%/95% PES/wool as in Example 1 and a similar bioassay carried out to give a pass result in terms of WNZ Test Method 25.
- Permethrin was added to low-melt polyester fibre at a rate of 1 .5% on mass of polymer.
- the polymer chips were subsequently fed into a hopper, melted then extruded as an homogenous fibre containing about 1 .5% insecticide. This was subsequently blended with wool in the ratio 95% wool/5% synthetic as for Example 1 .
- the same level of protection is achieved.
