Description

Verfahren zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern, insbesondere einer textilen Warenbahn enthaltend CellulosefasernProcess for the stabilization of cellulose fibers, in particular a textile web containing cellulose fibers
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern, insbesondere von im wesentlichen ausschliesslich Cellulosefasern umfassenden Materialien gemäss dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Verfahrensanspruchs. Die Erfindung betrifft weiter die Verwendung einer wasserbindenden Komponente als Zusatz in einer Behandlungslösung zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern oder von insbesondere im wesentlichen ausschliesslich Cellulosefasern umfassenden Materialien.The invention relates to a process for the stabilization of cellulose fibers, in particular of substantially exclusively cellulose fibers comprising materials according to the preamble of the independent method claim. The invention further relates to the use of a water-binding component as an additive in a treatment solution for stabilizing cellulose fibers or, in particular, substantially exclusively cellulose fibers comprising materials.
Die Behandlung von Cellulosefasern und Materialien, welche aus Cellulosefasern bestehen oder diese umfassen, wie beispielsweise Baumwollmaterialien, in alkalischem Milieu ist im Stand der Technik bekannt. Diese alkalische Behandlung wird häufig unter dem Begriff der Mercerisierung zusammengefasst, gelegentlich wird auch zwischen Mercerisierung (höhere Laugenkonzentration und Spannung der Ware) und Laugierung (niedrigere Laugenkonzentration, keine Warenspannung) unterschieden. Oftmals wird auch zwischen Mercerisierung einerseits und Ammoniakbehandlung andererseits differenziert (vergl . Bernard P. Corbman, Textiles : Fiber to Fabric, 6th Edition 1983, McGraw-Hill Book Company) .The treatment of cellulosic fibers and materials consisting of or including cellulosic fibers, such as cotton materials, in alkaline medium is known in the art. This alkaline treatment is often summarized under the term mercerization, occasionally a distinction is also made between mercerisation (higher alkali concentration and product tension) and leaching (lower alkali concentration, no product tension). Often a distinction is also made between mercerization on the one hand and ammonia treatment on the other hand (see Bernard P. Corbman, Textiles: Fiber to Fabric, 6 th Edition 1983, McGraw-Hill Book Company).
Bei tiefen Temperaturen oder hohem Druck liegt Ammoniak als wasserfreies flüssiges Quellmittel vor, welches zwar sehr konzentriert ist, jedoch eine wesentlich schwächere Lauge darstellt als wässrige Alkalilösungen. Dementsprechend erfolgt eine veränderte Quellung der Cellulosestruktur und es bildet sich eine begrenzt stabile Form der Cellulose, die unter dem Begriff Cellulose III zusammengefaßt wird. Der Effekt einer Flüssigammoniakbehandlung ist insbesondere bei Entfernung des Ammoniaks durch Abdampfen vorhanden und ist im Verhalten mit einer schwach alkalischen „Fixierung" vergleichbar. Wird das Textil in den folgenden Behandlungsschritten alkalisch bearbeitet, so geht der Effekt einer vorhergehenden Ammoniakbehandlung zum größten Teil verloren. Die Behandlung von Textilien in flüssigem Ammoniak ist daher von geringer Permanenz, jedoch von großer Bedeutung wenn der Behandlungsschritt unmittelbar vor einer Hochveredlung angeordnet wird. Der Hochveredlungsprozess kann dabei als Trockenvernetzung oder als Feuchtvernetzung durchgeführt werden. Durch diese Fixierung entstehen textile Produkte mit besten Knittereigenschaften und weichem Griff. Diese Besonderheit erklärt, warum der sicherheitstechnisch aufwendige, prozesstechnisch anspruchsvolle und damit sehr teure Prozess, einer Behandlung von Baumwolltextilien in flüssigem Ammoniak, durchgeführt wird.At low temperatures or high pressure, ammonia is present as an anhydrous liquid swelling agent which, while very concentrated, is a much weaker alkali than aqueous alkali solutions. Accordingly, there is a changed swelling of the cellulose structure and it forms a limited stable form of cellulose, which is summarized under the term cellulose III. The effect of a liquid ammonia treatment is particularly present on removal of the ammonia by evaporation and is in behavior with a weakly alkaline The treatment of textiles in liquid ammonia is therefore of little permanence, but of great importance if the treatment step is immediately before a treatment of alkaline in the following treatment steps This fixation produces textile products with excellent wrinkling properties and a soft feel, which explains why the technically complex, process-technically demanding and therefore very expensive process of treating cotton textiles in liquid ammonia.
Entsprechend der Bedeutung der Ammoniakbehandlung vorgängig zu einer Hochveredlung wurden verschiedenste Alternativen mit geringem Erfolg erprobt. Hierzu gehören Verwendung wässriger Ammoniaklösungen, Einsatz anderer Amine und Quellmittel (Cuoxamlö- sungen, Thiocyanate) . Generell haben diese Prozesse jedoch keine vorteilhaften Behandlungsresultate erreicht.According to the importance of ammonia treatment previously to a high-grade finishing various alternatives were tested with little success. These include the use of aqueous ammonia solutions, the use of other amines and swelling agents (cuoxam solutions, thiocyanates). Generally, however, these processes have not achieved beneficial treatment results.
Obschon das Ammoniakverfahren also in der Praxis durchaus auch gewisse Vorteile aufweist, ist nachteilig bei diesem Verfahren der aufgrund des zu verflüssigenden Ammoniaks notwendige, hohe konstruktive Aufwand der Behandlungsvorrichtungen bzgl. deren Dichtigkeit in Verbindung mit strikt kontrollierten Druck- und/oder Temperaturbedingungen, und damit verbundene, hohe Kosten einer solchen Anlage.Although the ammonia process therefore also has certain advantages in practice, the disadvantage of this process is the high design complexity of the treatment devices, which is necessary due to the ammonia to be liquefied, with respect to their tightness in connection with strictly controlled pressure and / or temperature conditions, and associated therewith , high cost of such a facility.
Bekannt sind aus den Dokumenten GB 612 745 A und GB 727 882 A Behandlungsverfahren für Regeneratcellulosen. Regeneratcellulo- sen erfordern aufgrund eines anderen Quellverhaltens grundsätzlich andere Behandlungsbedingungen als native Cellulosefasern. Aus dem Dokument GB 516 162 A ist ein Verfahren der sehr intensiven Quellung von Cellulosefasern bekannt, welches eine dauerhafte Versteifung des Materials bewirken soll, vermutlich durch Anlösung der Fasern. Eine Versteifung der Fasern ist bei dem o.g. Ammoniakverfahren jedenfalls unerwünscht.From the documents GB 612 745 A and GB 727 882 A treatment methods for regenerated celluloses are known. Regenerated celluloses generally require different treatment conditions than native cellulose fibers due to a different swelling behavior. From the document GB 516 162 A a method of very intensive swelling of cellulose fibers is known which is intended to bring about a permanent stiffening of the material, presumably by dissolving the fibers. A stiffening of the fibers is in any case undesirable in the abovementioned ammonia process.

Es ist daher eine Aufgabe der Erfindung, die Nachteile des Stands der Technik, insbesondere des Ammoniakverfahrens, zu überwinden, also ein alternatives Verfahren zur Stabilisierung von insbesondere vollständig regeneratcellulose-freien Cellulosefasern und/oder eines solche Cellulosefasern enthaltenden Materials, insbesondere einer textilen Warenbahnen enthaltend solche Cellulosefasern, bereitzustellen, welches einfach, kostengünstig und vorzugsweise auf konventionellen Behandlungsvorrichtungen durchführbar ist, wobei sich Fasereigenschaften nach dem Stabilisierungsverfahren - bzw. ggf. nach einer anschliessenden Hochveredelung - ergeben, welche mit denen vergleichbar oder besser sind, als sie durch eine konventionelle Ammoniakbehandlung - bzw. ggf. nach einer anschliessenden Hochveredelung — im Stand der Technik erzielt werden.It is therefore an object of the invention to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art, in particular of the ammonia process, ie an alternative process for stabilizing in particular completely regenerated cellulose-free cellulose fibers and / or such a cellulose fiber-containing material, in particular a textile webs containing such Cellulose fibers to provide, which is simple, inexpensive and preferably feasible on conventional treatment devices, with fiber properties after stabilization - or possibly after a subsequent refining - result, which are comparable or better than those by a conventional ammonia treatment or ., Where appropriate, after a subsequent refining - be achieved in the art.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch ein Verfahren zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Verfahrensanspruchs sowie der Verwendung einer wasserbindenden Komponente als Zusatz in einer Behandlungslösung zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern. Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zur Stabilisierung von Cellulo- sefasern, insbesondere von im wesentlichen ausschliesslich CeI- lulosefasern umfassenden Materialien, ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Cellulosefasern mit einer Behandlungslösung in Kontakt gebracht werden, wobei die Behandlungslösung umfasst:This object is achieved by a method for stabilizing cellulose fibers with the features of the independent method claim and the use of a water-binding component as an additive in a treatment solution for the stabilization of cellulose fibers. The process according to the invention for stabilizing cellulose fibers, in particular materials comprising essentially exclusively cellulose fibers, is characterized in that the cellulose fibers are brought into contact with a treatment solution, the treatment solution comprising:
(a) eine wasserbindende Komponente,(a) a water-binding component,
(b) ein Quellmittel, sowie(b) a swelling agent, as well
(c) Wasser.(c) water.
Weiter ist das Cellulosefasern enthaltende Material, insbesondere die textile Warenbahn enthaltend Cellulosefasern, im wesentlichen, vorzugsweise vollständig, frei von auf regenerierter Cellulose basierenden Garnen und Fasern, und der Anteil der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) an der Behandlungslösung beträgt mindestens 10 Gew.-%, vorzugsweise zwischen 10 Gew.-% und 90 Gew.-%, und die Komponenten (a) , (b) und (c) und ihre Anteile an der Behandlungslösung sind derart ausgewählt, dass eine Quellung der Cellulosefasern vorwiegend in amorphen Bereichen bewirkt wird.Further, the cellulosic fiber-containing material, especially the textile web containing cellulosic fibers, is substantially, preferably completely, free of regenerated cellulose based yarns and fibers, and the proportion of water binding component (a) in the processing solution is at least 10% by weight, preferably between 10% and 90% by weight, and the components (a), (b) and (c) and their proportions of treatment solution are selected so as to cause swelling of the cellulose fibers predominantly in amorphous regions.
Die zu behandelnden Cellulosefasern liegen besonders bevorzugt als textile Warenbahn vor; aber auch die Behandlung von nicht- bahnförmigen Cellulosefasern, wie bspw. Fäden, Garnen etc. ist im Rahmen der Erfindung möglich. Durch das Vorsehen einer wasserbindenden Komponente (a) kann der Wassergehalt der Behandlungslösung variiert und insbesondere niedrig eingestellt werden, so dass Resultate erhalten werden, welche mit denen der wasserfreien Ammoniakbehandlung vergleichbar bzw. überlegen sind. Jedoch muss der Wassergehalt (c) zumindest derart hoch gewählt sein, dass sich eine homogene Lösung insbesondere des Quellmittels (b) ergibt. Trotz dieses Restwassergehalts ergeben sich jedoch überraschend Eigenschaften der behandelten Fasern, welche den Eigenschaften von Fasern, welche einer aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Ammoniakbehandlung unterzogen wurden, ver- gleichbar sind bzw. diese sogar übertreffen. Die wasserbindende Komponente bindet einen Teil des Wassers der Behandlungslösung vorzugsweise in einer sog. Hydratschicht bzw. über Wasserstoffbrücken, so dass dieser Wasseranteil nicht dem freien Wasseranteil zuzurechnen ist. Der freie Wasseranteil, also der nicht von der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) gebundene Anteil des Wassers (c) , kann somit über die Auswahl und/oder die Menge der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) eingestellt und insbesondere minimiert werden.The cellulose fibers to be treated are particularly preferably present as a textile material web; but also the treatment of non-cellulosic cellulosic fibers, such as, for example, threads, yarns, etc., is possible within the scope of the invention. By providing a water-binding component (a), the water content of the treatment solution can be varied and in particular set low, so that results are obtained which are comparable or superior to those of the anhydrous ammonia treatment. However, the water content (c) must be at least so high that results in a homogeneous solution in particular of the swelling agent (b). Despite this residual water content, however, properties of the treated fibers which surprisingly result in the properties of fibers which have undergone an ammonia treatment known from the prior art are surprisingly obtained. are equal or even exceed. The water-binding component preferably binds part of the water of the treatment solution in a so-called hydrate layer or via hydrogen bridges, so that this water content is not attributable to the free water content. The free water content, that is to say the proportion of the water (c) which is not bound by the water-binding component (a), can thus be set and, in particular, minimized via the selection and / or the amount of the water-binding component (a).
Die Cellulosefasern bzw. die Cellulosefasern umfassenden Materialien sind im wesentlichen, vorzugsweise vollständig frei von auf regenerierter Cellulose basierenden Garnen und Fasern. Unter auf regenerierter Cellulose basierenden Garnen und Fasern werden hierbei insbesondere verstanden: Viskose (CV), Lyocellfasern (CLY) , Modal (CMD) , nach dem Kupferammoniakspinnverfahren hergestellte Cellulosefasern (CU) , Viskosechemieseide, Reyon, Viskosespinnseide, Zellwolle, Kupferchemieseide, Kupferchemiespinnfaser, Modifier- oder Modalfasern, (HWM) Polynosic (vergl . M. Peter, Handbuch für Textilingenieure und Textilpraktiker, Grundlagen der Textilveredlung, 10. Auflage 1970, Dr. Spohr-Verlag, Stuttgart) .The cellulosic fibers or materials comprising cellulose fibers are substantially, preferably completely, free from regenerated cellulose based yarns and fibers. Regenerated cellulose-based yarns and fibers are understood here to mean in particular: viscose (CV), lyocell fibers (CLY), modal (CMD), cellulose fibers (CU) produced by the copper ammonia spinning process, viscose chemisides, rayon, viscose spun silk, viscose rayon, copper chemisides, copper chemical spun fiber, modifier - or Modalfasern, (HWM) Polynosic (see M. Peter, Handbook for Textile Engineers and Textile Practitioners, Foundations of Textile Finishing, 10th Edition 1970, Dr. Spohr-Verlag, Stuttgart).
Der Anteil der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) an der Behandlungslösung beträgt mindestens 10 Gew.-%. Die vorzugsweise einzusetzende Menge an wasserbindender Komponente (a) kann vom Fachmann aufgrund von Routineversuchen und/oder Berechnung, insbesondere in Abhängigkeit von der Löslichkeit bzw. Mischbarkeit mit Wasser und der Verträglichkeit mit dem Quellmittel (b) , leicht ermittelt werden. Gegebenenfalls kann der Anteil an wasserbindender Komponente (a) bis zu 90 Gew.-% betragen. Besonders bevorzugt macht der Anteil der Komponente (a) an der Behand- lungslösung den grössten Einzelanteil der gesamten Behandlungslösung aus .The proportion of the water-binding component (a) in the treatment solution is at least 10% by weight. The amount of water-binding component (a) preferably to be used can easily be determined by a person skilled in the art on the basis of routine experiments and / or calculation, in particular depending on the solubility or miscibility with water and the compatibility with the swelling agent (b). Optionally, the proportion of water-binding component (a) can be up to 90 wt .-%. The proportion of component (a) in the treatment solution is the largest single component of the entire treatment solution.
Die Komponenten (a) , (b) und (c) und ihre Anteile an der Behandlungslösung sind derart ausgewählt, dass eine Quellung der CeI- lulosefasern vorwiegend in amorphen Bereichen bewirkt wird, also insbesondere keine signifikante Quellung auch in kristallinen Breichen auftritt, die sich u.a. in einer Versteifung des Gewebes äussert. Es zeigt sich, dass durch das vorgeschlagene Verfahren eine Quellung der Cellulosefasern vorwiegend in amorphen Bereichen erfolgt (Bildung von Cellulose III/IV) , wohingegen bei der Mercerisierung in flüssiger Phase die Quellung vorwiegend in kristallinen Bereichen erfolgt (Bildung von Cellulose II); hierdurch können gemäss der Erfindung besonders vorteilhafte Fasereigenschaften erzielt werden, welche mit jenen des Ammoniakverfahrens vergleichbar oder diesen sogar überlegen sind.The components (a), (b) and (c) and their proportions of the treatment solution are selected such that swelling of the cellulose fibers is effected predominantly in amorphous regions, ie in particular no significant swelling also occurs in crystalline regions which among others expressed in a stiffening of the tissue. It can be seen that the proposed method swells the cellulose fibers predominantly in amorphous areas (formation of cellulose III / IV), whereas in the mercerization in the liquid phase the swelling occurs predominantly in crystalline areas (formation of cellulose II); As a result, particularly advantageous fiber properties can be achieved according to the invention, which are comparable or even superior to those of the ammonia process.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform wird als wasserbindende Komponente (a) entweder 1, 2, 3-Propantriol oder NaCl, oder Mischungen hiervon verwendet; diese wasserbindenden Komponenten (a) haben sich in der Praxis als besonders vorteilhaft aufgrund einfacher Handhabbarkeit sowie gängiger und kostengünstiger Verfügbarkeit sowie guten bis hervorragenden resultierenden Fasereigenschaften erwiesen.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the water-binding component (a) used is either 1,2,3-propanetriol or NaCl or mixtures thereof; these water-binding components (a) have proved to be particularly advantageous in practice because of their ease of handling, as well as their common and cost-effective availability and good to outstanding resulting fiber properties.
Gemäss einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist der Anteil und/oder die Art der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) an der Behandlungslösung derart ausgewählt, dass ein verfügbarer, freier Wasseranteil - als der nicht von der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) gebundene Wasseranteil - der Behandlungslösung von höchstens 35 mol/1, vorzugsweise von höchstens 25 mol/1, besonders bevorzugt von höchstens 15 mol/1 resultiert. Besonders vorteilhaft ist der Anteil und/oder die Art der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) an der Behandlungslösung derart ausgewählt, dass im wesentlichen Werte der Fasersteifigkeit (feststellbar durch den Griff) , Faserquellung (feststellbar durch Querschnitt, Röntgenbeugung) , Farbstoffaufnahme (feststellbar durch Färbeversuche) , Vernetzbarkeit in der Hochveredlung (feststellbar durch Trocken- und Nassknittererholungswinkel (insbesondere bei guter Dimensionsstabilität) , Scheuerwerte und Festigkeit) erhalten werden, wie sie bei der konventionellen Behandlung in Flüssigammoniak erhalten werden.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, the proportion and / or the nature of the water-binding component (a) in the treatment solution is selected such that an available, free water content - as the non-bound by the water-binding component (a) water content - the treatment solution of at most 35 mol / 1, preferably at most 25 mol / 1, particularly preferably at most 15 mol / 1 results. The proportion and / or the nature of the water-binding component (a) in the treatment solution is particularly advantageously selected such that essentially values of fiber rigidity (detectable by the handle), fiber swelling (detectable by cross section, X-ray diffraction), dye absorption (detectable by dyeing tests) , Crosslinkability in the refining (detectable by dry and wet wrinkle recovery angle (especially with good dimensional stability), abrasion values and strength), as obtained in the conventional treatment in liquid ammonia.
Als Quellmittel (b) wird besonders bevorzugt eine Chemikalie oder eine Mischung von Chemikalien verwendet, welche insbesondere bei einer Konzentration von bereits 1 mol/1 in der Behandlungslösung und bei einem Wasseranteil von etwa 85 Gew.-% in einem pH Wert von >= 9, vorzugsweise von >= 11, besonders bevorzugt von >= 13 resultiert. Selbstverständlich kann im Rahmen der Erfindung die Einstellung der genannten pH Werte zusätzlich auch durch geeignete Auswahl und Anteil der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) unterstützt werden.As swelling agent (b) it is particularly preferred to use a chemical or a mixture of chemicals which, in particular at a concentration of already 1 mol / l in the treatment solution and at a water content of about 85% by weight in a pH of> = 9 , preferably of> = 11, particularly preferably of> = 13 results. Of course, in the context of the invention, the adjustment of said pH values can be additionally supported by suitable selection and proportion of the water-binding component (a).
In weiteren, besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsformen der Erfindung wird als Quellmittel (b) mindestens eine Chemikalie eingesetzt, welche ausgewählt ist aus der Gruppe bestehend aus Al- kalimetallhydroxiden, Erdalkalimetallhydroxiden, Aminen (insbesondere Ethanolamin, Diethanolamin, Triethanolamin, Ethylendia- min, Diethylendiamin, Triethylendiamin, Hexamethylendiamin, He- xamethylentetramin, Diethylamin, Triethylamin, Isopropylamin, t-Butylamin, Glycin, Serin) , Thiocyanaten (insbesondere Natrium- , Kalium-, Ammonium-, und/oder Calciumthiocyanat) , Kalium- und/oder Natriumiodid, Metallkomplexen (insbesondere Eisen- Weinsäure-Natronlauge, Lösungen der Cuen- bzw. Cuoxamkomplexe) , Ammoniak-Lösung, und Mischungen hiervon. Typischerweise wird das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zur Stabilisierung bei einer Temperatur zwischen -1O0C und 18O0C, bevorzugt bei einer Temperatur zwischen 150C und 1050C durchgeführt. Bei Durchführung als batch-Prozess beträgt die Verweilzeit vorteilhaft zwischen 1 h und 4 h, bei kontinuierlicher Durchführung beträgt die Verweilzeit im Behandlungsbad vorteilhaft zwischen 1 und 30 min. Wichtig ist hierbei jedenfalls, die Zusammensetzung der Behandlungslösung entsprechend der Erfindung der möglichen Behandlungszeit anzupassen.In further, particularly advantageous embodiments of the invention, at least one chemical selected from the group consisting of alkali metal hydroxides, alkaline earth metal hydroxides, amines (in particular ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, ethylenediamine, diethylenediamine, triethylenediamine), is used as swelling agent (b).

When carried out as a batch process, the residence time is advantageously between 1 h and 4 h, with continuous implementation, the residence time in the treatment bath is advantageously between 1 and 30 min. In any case, it is important to adjust the composition of the treatment solution according to the invention of the possible treatment time.
Selbstverständlich können die im Rahmen der im Stand der Technik üblicherweise zu optimierenden Parameter wie Behandlungsdauer, Behandlungstemperatur und Warenspannung während der Behandlung auch im Rahmen des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens, insbesondere auf den jeweiligen Anwendungsfall abgestimmt, eingestellt werden. Die Einstellung dieser Parameter kann vom Fachmann, ggf. auf der Basis von Routineversuchen, leicht vorgenommen werden.Of course, within the scope of the parameters which are usually to be optimized in the prior art, such as treatment duration, treatment temperature and product tension during the treatment, they can also be adjusted in the context of the method according to the invention, in particular to the respective application. The adjustment of these parameters can easily be carried out by a person skilled in the art, possibly on the basis of routine tests.
In besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsformen des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens wird nach der Quellbehandlung eine Hochveredelung der Cellulosefasern oder des insbesondere im wesentlichen ausschliesslich Cellulosefasern umfassenden Materials durchgeführt. Unter Verfahren der Hochveredlung werden hier und im folgenden Verfahren verstanden, welche die Gebrauchstüchtigkeit des Fertigerzeugnisses nach einer oder mehreren Richtungen hin in einer dauerhaften Art verbessern, insbesondere durch Änderung des Warenbildes durch mechanische Einwirkung (z.B. Ratinieren, Moirieren, Gaufrieren, Plissieren, Erzeugen von Glanzeffekten, etc.), durch chemische Einwirkung (z.B. Erzeugen von Durchbruch- effekten, Devorant, Luftspitzen, Steifausrüstungen, Quellungsverfahren, Steif-Appreturen, Versehen mit Einbügelstoffen, Weichmachen, Mattieren, Metallisierung) oder durch kombinierte mechanische/chemische Behandlung (z.B. Cloques, Seersucker, Kräuselkrepp, Craquele, Klebcloques) , aber auch Verfahren zur Erhöhung des Gebrauchswerts zur Bewirkung von besserer Fülle, Widerstandsfähigkeit, Quellfestigkeit, Schrumpffreiheit, Knitterfreiheit, etc. (siehe hierzu auch M. Peter, Handbuch für Textilingenieure und Textilpraktiker, Grundlagen der Textilveredlung, 10. Auflage 1970, Dr. Spohr-Verlag, Stuttgart). Es hat sich in der Praxis gezeigt, dass das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zur Stabilisierung überraschenderweise oftmals insbesondere nach einem anschliessenden Hochveredlungsverfahren herausragend zum Tragen kommt .In particularly advantageous embodiments of the process according to the invention, after the swelling treatment, a high-level refinement of the cellulose fibers or of the material which in particular essentially exclusively comprises cellulose fibers is carried out. Processes of high-grade finishing are here and below understood to mean processes which improve the serviceability of the finished product in one or more directions in a permanent manner, in particular by changing the appearance of the goods by mechanical action (eg, ruling, moire, guarding, pleating, producing gloss effects , etc.), by chemical action (eg creation of breakthrough effects, devorant, air tips, stiffening equipment, swelling processes, stiff-finishings, lapping, softening, matting, metallization) or by combination mechanical / chemical treatment (eg Cloques, Seersucker, Kräuselkrepp, Craquele, Klebcloques), but also methods for increasing the utility value to effect better fullness, resistance, swelling resistance, freedom from shrinkage, crease, etc. (see also M. Peter, manual for Textile Engineers and Textile Practitioners, Basics of Textile Finishing, 10th edition 1970, Dr. Spohr-Verlag, Stuttgart). It has been shown in practice that the stabilization process according to the invention surprisingly often has an outstanding effect, in particular after a subsequent high-grade finishing process.
Es ist daher im Rahmen der Erfindung besonders vorteilhaft, in Abhängigkeit von einer nach der Hochveredelung zu erzielenden Eigenschaft die Komponenten (a) , (b) und (c) der Behandlungslösung auszuwählen und/oder in ihren Anteilen an der Behandlungslösung aufeinander abzustimmen. Eine derartige Anpassung der individuellen Behandlungslösung in Abhängigkeit einer nach der Hochveredlung gewünschten Eigenschaft ist vom Fachmann in Routineversuchen leicht vorzunehmen. Insbesondere hohe Laugenkonzentration beeinflusst die Modifikation der Cellulosefaser in Richtung der konventionellen Mercerisation; geringere Laugenkonzentrationen und höherer Anteil an der wasserbindenden Komponente (a) verschieben das erzielbare Produktprofil näher zu Resultaten der konventionellen Flüssigammoniakbehandlung. Unterschiede in den Eigenschaften werden insbesondere durch die Auswahl der Komponenten (a) und (b) bzw. deren Mischungsverhältnisse in der Behandlungslösung gesteuert. Z.B. wurde gefunden, dass durch Erhöhung der Laugenkonzentration der Griff des Textils steifer erhalten werden kann, während bei verminderter Laugenkonzentration der Griff des Textils weicher wird. Ebenso erhöht sich das Wasserrückhaltevermögen mit höherer Laugenkonzentration, was die Unterschiede zu Ergebnissen der konventionellen Flüssigammoniakbehandlung vergrössert.It is therefore particularly advantageous within the scope of the invention to select the components (a), (b) and (c) of the treatment solution and / or to coordinate them in their proportions to the treatment solution, depending on a property to be achieved after the high-grade refinement. Such an adaptation of the individual treatment solution as a function of a desired after the refining property is easily carried out by the expert in routine experiments. In particular, high alkali concentration influences the modification of the cellulose fiber in the direction of conventional mercerization; lower lye concentrations and higher proportion of the water-binding component (a) shift the achievable product profile closer to the results of the conventional liquid ammonia treatment. Differences in properties are controlled in particular by the selection of components (a) and (b) or their mixing ratios in the treatment solution. For example, it has been found that by increasing the caustic concentration, the fabric's feel can be stiffer, while with reduced caustic concentration, the fabric's feel softens. Similarly, the water retention capacity increases with higher alkali concentration, which the Differences to results of conventional liquid ammonia treatment increased.
Die Hochveredlung kann hierbei nach der Behandlung mit der er- findungsgemässen Behandlungslösung entweder mit oder ohne Zwischentrocknung durchgeführt werden.The high-grade finishing can be carried out after treatment with the treatment solution according to the invention either with or without intermediate drying.
Eine besonders vorteilhafte Eigenschaft des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens ist, dass die Behandlung ohne gebundene Warenführung erfolgen kann. Durch die insgesamt im Rahmen der Erfindung verringerte Faserquellung treten auch wesentlich geringere Schrumpfkräfte auf, so dass auch der Einsprung der Ware geringer ist als bei Mercerisierverfahren in flüssiger Phase gemäss Stand der Technik.A particularly advantageous feature of the method according to the invention is that the treatment can be carried out without bonded goods guide. Due to the total reduced in the context of the invention, fiber swelling also occur much lower shrinkage forces, so that the jump of the product is lower than Mercerisierverfahren in the liquid phase according to the prior art.
Die Erfindung betrifft weiter die Verwendung einer wasserbindenden Komponente als Zusatz in einer Behandlungslösung zur Stabilisierung von Cellulosefasern, oder von insbesondere im wesentlichen ausschliesslich Cellulosefasern umfassenden Materialien, zur Erhöhung des resultierenden Anteils der in amorphen Bereichen gequollenen Cellulosefasern und/oder zur Verringerung des resultierenden Anteils der in kristallinen Bereichen gequollenen Cellulosefasern.The invention further relates to the use of a water-binding component as additive in a treatment solution for stabilizing cellulose fibers, or of materials substantially exclusively comprising cellulose fibers, to increase the resulting proportion of cellulose fibers swollen in amorphous regions and / or to reduce the resulting proportion of cellulose fibers crystalline areas of swollen cellulose fibers.
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines konkreten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert, ohne dass der Gegenstand der Erfindung jedoch hierauf zu beschränken wäre.The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to a concrete embodiment, without, however, the subject matter of the invention would be limited thereto.
Ein Textil aus 100% Baumwolle wurde bei Raumtemperatur mit den in Tabelle 1 genannten Behandlungslösungen auf einem Foulard mit 1 m/min Warengeschwindigkeit mit einer Flottenaufnahme von 50 - 66% imprägniert und 4 h bei RT in der Lösung verweilt. An- schliessend wurde mit kaltem Weichwasser ausgewaschen, mit 1 ml/1 Essigsäure neutralisiert, bei 4O0C getrocknet und nach dem üblichen STK-Verfahren (STK = Schock Trocknung Kondensation) hochveredelt. Für die Hochveredlung wurden bei einer Flottenaufnahme von rund 50-70% 40 g/l Arkofix® NDF (DMDHEU-basiertes Produkt, Clariant AG, Basel, Schweiz) und 10 g/l MgCl2 als Katalysator eingesetzt. Nach 1 min Trocknung bei 13O0C erfolgte Kondensation bei 17O0C (Dauer 45 sec) .A textile made of 100% cotton was impregnated at room temperature with the treatment solutions listed in Table 1 on a pad at a speed of 1 m / min with a liquor pickup of 50-66% and left in the solution for 4 h at RT. Subsequently, it was washed out with cold soft water, with 1 ml / 1 acetic acid neutralized, dried at 4O 0 C and highly refined by the usual STK process (STK = shock drying condensation). For refining, 40 g / l Arkofix® NDF (DMDHEU-based product, Clariant AG, Basel, Switzerland) and 10 g / l MgCl 2 were used as catalyst at a liquor pick-up of about 50-70%. After drying for 1 min at 13O 0 C, condensation was carried out at 17O 0 C (duration 45 sec).
Eine Bewertung des erreichten Effekts erfolgt durch Bestimmung des Wasserrückhaltevermögens (WRV) und des Trockenknitterwinkels (TKW K+S) nach DIN 53890 mit 5 Minuten Erholungszeit, der Steifigkeit (%) und der Schrumpfung (%) des ausgerüsteten Produkts. Zum Vergleich sind Resultate jeweils nach einer Behandlung mit 125 bzw. 200 g/l NaOH bzw. KOH in Wasser und nach einer Flüssigammoniakbehandlung, und anschließender, identischer Hochveredlung aufgeführt. Es zeigt sich, dass die resultierenden Eigenschaften des Textils unter Verwendung des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens nach der Hochveredlung mit den Eigenschaften eines Textils nach einer Ammoniakbehandlung mit nachfolgender, identischer Hochveredlung vergleichbar, bzw. überlegen ist. Hohe TKW bestätigen gutes Knitterverhalten der erfindungsgemäss behandelten Proben, insbesondere im Vergleich zu den konventionell NH3 behandelten Proben. Die konventionelle Mercerisation fällt bei den Ergebnissen deutlich ab. Vergleichbare Werte bei Wasserrückhaltevermögen, Steifigkeit und Schrumpfung bestätigen die Möglichkeit durch systematische Anpassung der Zusammensetzung der Behandlungslösung Eigenschaften der textilen Materialien gezielt verändern zu können. Tabelle 1: VergleichsmessungenAn evaluation of the achieved effect is carried out by determining the water retention capacity (WRV) and the dry crease angle (TKW K + S) according to DIN 53890 with 5 minutes recovery time, the stiffness (%) and the shrinkage (%) of the finished product. For comparison, results are given in each case after treatment with 125 g or 200 g / l NaOH or KOH in water and after liquid ammonia treatment, followed by identical high-grade finishing. It can be seen that the resulting properties of the textile using the process according to the invention after finishing are comparable or superior to the properties of a textile after ammonia treatment followed by identical high-grade finishing. High TKWs confirm good crease behavior of the samples treated according to the invention, in particular in comparison with the conventional NH 3- treated samples. Conventional mercerization falls significantly in the results. Comparable values for water retention, rigidity and shrinkage confirm the possibility of systematically adjusting the composition of the treatment solution to be able to change the properties of the textile materials in a targeted manner.
