Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical sector of fabrics or other textiles or other similar supports, based on or comprising fibers or textiles called “technical” “fireproof”, and / or capable of protecting against chemical, thermal, biological attack , biochemical, bacteriological, viral and similar aggressions.
- the invention relates to such fabrics treated so as to exhibit certain coloristic properties such as "whiteness” or "high visibility”.
- the invention relates to these fabrics, supports, etc., having the properties indicated either "pure” or as a mixture with other textile fibers.
- the invention also relates to the process for manufacturing such fabrics, textiles, similar supports (hereinafter “textiles” together and separately), as well as their uses for the protection (in particular, but not limited to) of human beings against assaults mentioned above.
- the invention relates to clothing, coveralls, sets and protective systems consisting of, or comprising, at least one such textile.
- the invention relates to all natural and / or synthetic fibers, optionally comprising reinforcements (carbon fibers, metallic fibers, etc.) or fibers providing additional properties (polyamides).
- Textiles or protective materials can be classified into several categories.
- Fireproof fabrics 100% cotton or polyester (PE) / cotton blend. Their fire resistance is limited, and decreases over time and washes. Their dimensional stability is average, as well as their resistance to tearing. If they use fluorescent cotton, it exhibits low resistance to light over time. Their resistance to chemical aggressions is low, in particular to acids, and their low durability requires the use of heavy weight textiles.
- PE polyester
- Modified acrylic fabrics / cotton with fireproofing treatment Their dimensional stability is limited, their resistance to chemical attack, in particular to acids, is low, their resistance to tearing is medium and to date we can only give them a single visibility color (fluorescent yellow).
- Polvamide-lmide / viscose fabrics with fireproofing treatment Their dimensional stability is limited, they have a low resistance to chemical attack, in particular to acids, which further decreases over time, and their resistance to tearing is medium.
- Patent FR 96 08 908 describes a textile combining yarns of different materials knitted in two superimposed layers.
- the textile has two layers, one of threads of synthetic fibers forming the outer surface, and the other of threads of natural fibers forming the inner surface.
- the two layers are connected by a connecting wire.
- Synthetic threads can be dyed in "fluorescent" colors. It is a textile whose texture is not adapted to the problem of the invention. The colors obtained are not comparable in strength, durability or intensity to those obtained according to the invention.
- Patent EP 0 573 772 describes a "non-woven" type product comprising thermoplastic fibers (fuses) and a fluorescent layer comprising a fluorescent pigment. The pigment is combined with a resin to obtain a maximum concentration of fluorescent pigment in the vicinity of the external face. Retroreflective patterns are deposited by transfer, then the layers are bonded and the film is removed from the transfer.
- Patent EP 0 171 900 describes thermally stable reflective strips, intended to be positioned on a flame retardant garment.
- the fluorescent coating is combined with retroreflective means.
- the fluorescent coating can be red or bright yellow.
- This document therefore teaches a known protective textile (NOMEX TM, Acrylic / cotton, glass fibers, ceramic fibers, etc.) on which a fluorescent thermoplastic layer is deposited then retroreflective thermoplastic strips.
- the invention provides for the first time a material combining excellent "fire-proof”, chemical, mechanical, etc. protection characteristics and "high visibility" characteristics never achieved, all without using palliatives or simple associations of properties as does the prior art.
- the invention provides for the first time a material combining the same protection characteristics as above with a "white" color essential in hospital or nuclear or chemical environment. More specifically, the invention provides a method for incorporating intense safety colors in protective materials.
- HV or BL properties are durable for the first time.
- the materials obtained comply in particular with standard EN 471 and the standard OEKOTEX.
- the invention applies to known protective materials as well as to any material based on a mixture of synthetic and natural fibers, intrinsically endowed with "fire-retardant” or not properties, including those with base or comprising glass veils (which can replace asbestos), and in general to any flat structure of fabric, textile, non-woven, "mat” type of fibers, and the like, and in particular materials based on aramid fibers (including such fibers).
- the materials according to the invention also exhibit a remarkable set of properties such as resistance to washing and to multiple washing (resistance to washing), resistance to abrasion or wear, resistance to light, and resistance to pilling ("pilling"), which gives great durability to the "high visibility” properties.
- the invention applies to warp and weft fabrics or to other textile materials (such as certain knitted fabrics, veils, nonwovens, needles, composites) which are made up or not of fire-retardant fibers by nature.
- textile materials such as certain knitted fabrics, veils, nonwovens, needles, composites
- aramid fibers metal-aramids or para-aramids in pure or mixed form
- NOMEX TM
- NOMEX-DELTA / A TM
- NOMEX-DELTA / C TM
- NOMEX (TM) -VISCOSE NOMEX (TM) -KEVLAR (TM) textiles and the like.
- the invention allows the use of a varied choice of HV colors such as Yellow Orange Red or Fuschia or Bright Green with very intense tones with high luminescence and lasting.
- the invention also makes it possible to obtain a deep and lasting "white" color, much superior to the natural white color, in particular compared to a NOMEX (TM) textile which has not been subjected to the process according to the invention.
- the present invention relates generally to a process for imparting intense HV or BL colors to textiles, in particular "protective" fabrics, characterized in that it comprises a specific preparation in two stages, one of which is rewashing fabrics or materials ecru of departure, the second aiming to eliminate all the residues coming from one or more preceding stages.
- the treatment sequence consists of:
- - last polymerization step at 170-180 ° C, preferably for 30 to 40 s.
- Dyes and fluorescent dye mixtures are known to those skilled in the art, although certain colors have never been used in the prior art. Titanium oxide is also known. Those skilled in the art will understand the general scope of the rewashing or "second preparation" treatment and adapt it to different materials, textiles, fabrics, sails, nonwovens, etc. mentioned above, as well as other usual dyes and additives not mentioned.
- the Applicant considers that the rewashing step or "second preparation" improves the compatibility between the fabric and the HV or BL dye mixtures by eliminating the residues which, it seems, harm this compatibility and have led to the defects and limitations of the prior art.
- one of the important advantages of the invention is to provide safety clothing which is at the same time effective, durable and comfortable because it is very light.
- Relative humidity RH 65 ⁇ 5% Applied pressure 12 k.Pa Basic textile used: NOMEX (TM) III. Medium on HV Yellow or HV Red dyes
- the present invention therefore makes it possible to produce materials, in particular of the textile or similar type, which provide users of clothing or protective systems with a very great improvement in their safety in dangerous operations.
- the invention allows for the first time the incorporation of HV or BL colors in materials having a remarkable set of mechanical properties, resistances etc., the colors being intense and being able to be varied, the whole being resistant to wear and washing, and in the light, and therefore of lasting effectiveness.
- the invention finds obvious applications in all present or future fields of operations in dangerous, contaminated, smoky areas, etc., in particular:
