  • the humectant may be either a nonionic humec- 117/1395 (IQ 1395 F 1395 C tant (such as glycerine) or an ionic humectant (including strong electrolytes such as calcium chloride).
  • this invention relates to an antistatic composition particularly adapted for use on pile fabrics, especially carpeting and upholstery fabrics normally backed with polymeric coatings and on vinyl and asbestos sheet and tile flooring, polyurethane and polyolefin flooring and on linoleum petroleum composition flooring products and the like.
  • This invention is also concerned with a process for the preparation of an antistatic composition, and a process for treating the above with same in order to reduce electrostatic charge build-up in textiles.
  • antistatic pertains to reducing or eliminating the property or ability to generate, induce or accumulate electrostatic charges.
  • An object of this invention is the preparation of an improved antistatic composition.
  • Another object of this invention is the preparation of an antistatic composition which can be used in such a way that it does not attract dirt, is not worn off in normal use nor does same migrate to the surface of the textile structure when the latter is washed.
  • an object of this invention is the preparation of an antistatic composition which does not affect adversely the hand properties of the treated textile.
  • Still another object of the invention is the preparation of an antistatic composition which is compatible with the latex binders that are used as carpet backing and adhesives and is non-corrosive to the machinery from which same is applied to the textile structure.
  • Still other objects of this invention include the process for the preparation of the antistatic composition of this invention, the process for coating fabric therewith, a process for rendering textiles antistatic and a process for the reduction of static electricity charge build-up in humans in contact with flooring.
  • the antistatic material is effective without being in contact with the backing and the ends of the fibers of textiles or flooring wear layer.
  • the amount of material applied as such antistatic coating should be normally from .01 to 20 ounces per square yard and preferably from 2.0 to 10.0 ounces per square yard of the antistatic coating as applied.
  • the antistatic coating composition employed for the antistatic coating herein comprises a mixture of a textile antistatic agent and 10 to 50 parts by weight of humectant. There may also be employed from 0.1 to about 1 part by weight of a nonionic or cationic type wetting agent to assist in dispersing of the antistatic composition. It is also preferable to incorporate in the coating composition from about Olto about 1 part by weight of an electroltye particularly if the humectant employed is nonionic in character or is only wealky ionic, i.e., has a relatively low dissociation constant.
  • the antistatic coating is preferably applied in the form of an aqueous solution or dispersion, although other solvents or liquid dispersing mediums may be employed if desired and in the case of aqueous solutions or dispersions, volatile watersoluble solvents, such as lower aliphatic alcohols of one to four carbon atoms, acetone and the like, may be included to facilitate drying of the antistatic layer following its application.
  • compositions for the antistatic coating of the present invention are disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,519,561 of Andrew J. Kelly and Robert C. Britt entitled Antistatic Cb mposition and Process. Particularly preferred are those antistatic compositions disclosed in said patent in which potassium formate is employed as humectant since it has been found that not only is potassium formate particularly effective as a humectant in such coating compositions, but compositions containing the same are compatible with the latex backing where employed, in carpets, for instance, and specifically overcomes premature coagulation or gelling of the backing based on natural compounded rubber, thus not interfering with good bonding of the latex coating with the carpet backing.
  • the antistatic coatings containing calcium chloride are incompatible with certain known latex coatings which have been used as carpet backings in that they cause premature coagulation or gelling ofthe latex with resultant poor adhesion of the latex to the carpet backing so that in the case of loosely woven or tufted carpets the latex does not function satisfactorily to hold the tufts in place.
  • antistatic layers based on the antistatic compositions of the above mentioned patent are particularly preferred, it will be understood that one may also employ many antistatic materials in conjunction with the specific parameters of the instant invention.

  • the process does not require the use of an excess of the hydroxylic organic compound (in this instance the defined nonionic surface active agent), in order to bring the P 0 into solution.
  • Substantially no tertiary phosphate ester is formed and little or no P 0 remains in the composition.
  • the product may in some instances contain some unreacted nonionic surface active agent which for certain uses is actually advantageous.
  • Lighter colored or substantially colorless products are obtained when the phosphation reaction is carried out in the presence of a small or catalytic amount of a phosphorus-containing compound selected from the group consisting of hypophosphorous acid, salts of hypophosphorous acid, phosphorous acid, and salts and esters of phosphorous acid.
  • the process comprises reacting 1 mole of P 0 with 2 to 4.5 moles of a nonionic surface active agent having the molecular configuration ofa condensation product of at least 1 mole of ethylene oxide with 1 mole of a compound containing at least 6 carbon atoms and a reactive hydrogen atom, under substantially anhydrous conditions and at a temperature below about 1 10C. in the presence of a small amount of one or a mixture of the aforementioned hypophosphorous or phosphorous acid compounds.
  • Products resulting from the use thereof generally have VCS (varnish color scale, Gardner scale, standards of 1933) values of at least one less than products of the same process carried out in the absence of the hypophosphorous or phosphorous acid compound.
  • VCS variable color scale, Gardner scale, standards of 1933
  • Products having a VCS color of about I or less arethus made possible, as compared with VCS colors of from about 2 to 7 or more for products produced without the aid of the present invention.

In general, they may be obtained by condensing a polyglycol ether containing the required number of alkenoxy groups or an alkylene oxide such as propylene oxide, butylene oxide, or preferably ethylene oxide, with an organic compound containing at least six carbon atoms and a reactive hydrogen atom.
  • a reactive hydrogen atom there may be mentioned alcohols, phenols, thiols, primary and secondary amines, and carboxylic and sulfonic acids, and their amides.
  • alkylene oxide or equivalent condensed with the reactive chain will depend primarily upon the particular compound with which it is condensed. As a convenient rule of thumb, an amount of alkylene oxide or equivalent should be employed which will result in a condensation product containing about 20 to 85% by weight of combined alkylene oxide. However, the optimum amount of alkylene oxide for attainmennt of the desired by hydrophobic hydrophilic balance may be readily determined in any particular case by preliminary test and routine experimentation.

  • E.O. means ethylene oxide and the number preceding same refers to the number of moles thereof reacted with 1 mole of the given reactive hydrogen-containing compound.
  • the latter agent is a solid at room temperature, it should be heated to above its melting point. Addition of the nonionic surface active agent to the P 0 is inadvisable since this has been found to result in the formation of tar and the like and to prevent the reaction from proceeding to completion. The reaction is exothermic and in some cases cooling is necessary to prevent the temperature from going above 110C. since this tends to produce discolored and darkened products. The reaction proceeds continuously during addition of the P 0 and solution thereof in the nonionic surface active agent, and is substantially complete or more by the time all of the P 0 has been added.
  • the few particles of solid P 0 remaining in the reaction medium may be removed at this point if time is of the essence, but it is preferred in the interests of economy to allow the reaction to proceed for an additional period of time which may range from one-half to 5 hours or more at ambient temperatures up to about C. until allof the P 0 has dissolved indicating complete reaction between the reactants involved. Vigorous agitation during the reaction is highly desirable to facilitate and expedite completion of the reaction.
  • the P 0 may be employed in dry, solid form as a granular powder or other finely divided or particulate form, for reaction with the above defined nonionic surface active agents.
  • the P 0 may first be dispersed in an inert organic diluent such as benzene, xylene, ether, pentane, or low and high boiling hydrocarbon fractions.

If carried out under rigid anhydrous conditions the product should consist of a mixture of the primary and secondary phosphate esters of the nonionic surface active agent combined, depending upon the proportions of reactants, in some instances with a small proportion of unreacted nonionic surface active agent. Any small amount of water present in the reaction mixture will result protanto in the formation of some phosphoric acid in the product.
  • the degree of esterification in the product may be determined by potentiometric titration or by titration with alkali to methyl orange and then to phenolphthalein.
