Description
2,930,670 MOLTEN UREA DYEING PROCESS Samuel Nelson Bradshaw, oyentry, and Harry B. Mann, Braintree, England, a'ssignors to Courtauids Limited; London, England, a British company No Drawing. Application July 24, 1956 Serial No. 607,252 Claims priority, application Great Britain July 29,1955 Claims. (Cl. 8-85) This invention relates to the dyeing of textile materials.
In the normal dyeing procedure textiles are treated with an aqueous solution or dispersion of a dyestuff at a temperature depending on the nature of the material being dyed and the materials are left in the dyebath for a considerable period and are then rinsed and dried. The dyebath may also contain one or more dyeing assistants, for example common salt or Glaubers salt or other compounds which assist the material in taking up the dye.
and give a uniform penetration of the material by the dye. In the normal dyeing process therefore, water is the usual medium in which the dye is transferred'to the textile materials but in the specification of co-pending application U.S. Serial No. 428,375, filed May 7, 1954, and its continuation-impart Serial No. 668,043, filed June 26, 1957, there is described a method of dyeing in which molten urea replaces water as the dyestuff transfer medium. In this method textile materials are treated with a dyestutf in the presence of urea and are maintained at a temperature between the melting point of urea and 160 C. Thus textile materials may be impregnated with an aqueous solution or dispersion of the dyestuif and the urea, the impregnated material is dried and then baked at a temperature above the melting point of the urea.
In any dyeing process, it is generally desirable for economic or other reasons to carry out the process at the lowest practicable temperature and accordingly, the ob ject of the present invention is to modify the process of (1.8. Serial No. 428,375 and its continuation-in-part Serial No. 668,043, filed June 26, 1957, to enable lower temperatures to be used.
According to the present invention textile materials are treated with a dyestuif in the presence of urea and one or more other substances soluble in urea and capable of lowering the melting point of the urea and are maintained at a temperature between the melting point of the mixture and 160 C.
The amount by which the melting point is lowered will depend on the nature and quantity of the-substance or substances added. Any suitable substance (hereinafter referred to as a melting point depressant or depressant) soluble in molten urea and capable of lowering its melting point may be used. These depressants may be used in amounts up to of the weight of the urea, or up to their maximum solubility in urea if this is less than /s. The following table gives examples of suitable substances together with their maximum solubility in urea 2,930,670 Eaten-ted ,Mar. 29-, 1960 of the urea, also have a beneficial effect in reducing the tendency of the urea to decompose at elevated temperatures. Examples of such substances are the ammonium salts of strong acids such as ammonium chloride and ammonium sulphate. The melting point depressants may also be decomposition products formed in situ by heating urea above its melting point and allowing it to resolidify. If heated for a sufiicient time (for example from A to 2 hours) at a sufliciently high temperature (for example from to C.)-the resolidified urea has a lower melting point than the pure urea and can be used in the process of the present invention. The following table shows the reduction in melting point obtained with different temperatures and'times of heating.
The method of carrying out the present invention may be similar to that described in US. Serial No. 428,375 and its continuation-in-part Serial No. 668,043, filed June 26, 1957; thus thetextile materials may be impregnated with an aqueous solution or dispersion of the urea and the melting point depressant and an aqueous solution or dispersion of the dyestufi? or a single aqueous solution or dispersion ofthe dyestufi, the urea and the melting point depressant, dried, baked to effect the dyeing, washed to remove the urea and dried. The urea and the melting point depressant are preferably applied simultaneously from the same bath in an amount sufficient to give a take up of urea of 40 to 55 percent by weight of the dry textile materiaL. The impregnation is preferably effected at room temperature. on the temperature used; in practice times varying from 1 /2 to 15 minutes have been found adequate.
The process of the present invention is suitable for dyeing with dyestuffs which are soluble in molten ureafor example direct cotton dyestuffs, dispersed acetatedyestufis, soluble acetate dyestulfs, leuco esters of vat dyestuffs, aggregated acid dyestuffs and metal complex dyestuffs. itis particularly suitable for dyeing withv direct cotton dyestuffs.
The process of the present invention is suitable for-dyeing those textiles which are not deleteriously affected by the baking, for example textile materials of cotton, wool, regenerated cellulose, artificial protein fibres, cellulose esters, synthetic polyamides and synthetic polyesters and materials made from mixtures of two or moreof these fibres. If the process is used for dyeing textiles from thermoplasticrfibres having a comparatively low melting point for example certain vinyl resin fibres the baking should be carried out at the lowest temperature and for the shortest time permissible.
The textile materials may be dyed according to the ample, the process may be applied to woven or knitted fabrics or to threads, yarns or fibres.
the impregnated material may be dried and baked in an oven. 'The apparatus-normally used for carrying out a The time for the baking step will depend creaseeresisttreatment with a urea-formaldehyde resin on textile materials, can be. used without substantial alters, tron.
In the baking step in the process of the present invention the urea melts and acts. as a dye transfer medium. The process of the, present invention provides a simple and convenient alternative to the established practice of dyeing from aqueous dyebaths. The process is simple, quick, easy to. control and eliminates many of thev difiiculties encountered in dyeing with aqueous dyebaths.
The process is particularly suitable for dyeing blends of two or more different fibres especially where one of the fibres shows a preferential absorption for the dyestulf from an aqueous dyebath, for examples blends of viscose rayon fibres and regenerated protein fibres can be dyed in an even shade with a direct cotton dyestufi by the process of the present invention whereas the blends would be diiferentially dyed from an aqueous dyebath.
The invention is illustrated by the following examples in which the parts are by weight.
Example 1 A fabric woven from 100 percent viscose rayon staple yarn was padded at 100 percent expression through a solution at room temperature prepared as follows:
1 part of Durazol Yellow 3115 (LC-II) 40 parts of urea I pa of th urea were made up to 100 parts with water. The fabric was dried at 80C. and then baked for 15 minutes at 130 C The dye mpl as heu w shed for m nu es in l water and dried at 80 C.
1 subje t ng the dyed abric to h ash ng t as described in the Second Report of the Fastness Tests Committee of the Society of Dyers and Colourists (Journal of the Society of Dyers and Colourists, 1948, volume 64, pages 136-.137, Test No. 1) it was found that the fabric dyed by the process of the present invention was of comparable fastness to a fabric dyed from a conventional aqueous dyebath.
Example 2 A fabric woven from 100 percent viscose rayon staple yarn was padded at 100 percent expression through a solution at room temperature prepared as follows:
1 part Durazol Rubine BS ('I.C.I.) Color Index 28-160 40 parts of urea 5 parts of boric acid were made up to 100 parts with water. The fabric was dried at 80 C. and then baked for minutes at 130 C. The sample was then washed, dried, and the dye fastness assessed according to the test described in Example 1.
Very little dye-was removed by this test.
Example 3 A fabric woven from continuous filament cellulose acetate yarn was padded at 65 percent expression through the, following solution at room temperature: 1
