Description

United States Patent ice WRINKLE RESISTANCE TREATMENT FOR CELLULOSIC TEXTILE FABRICS Robert M. Reinhardt, John G. Erick, Jr., Richard L.
Arceneaux, and John D. Reid, all of New Orleans, La.,
assignors to the United States of America as represented by the Secretary of Agriculture N0 Drawing. Filed Mar. 23, 1959, Ser. No. 801,417
2 Claims. (Cl. 117-139.4) (Granted under Title 35, US. Code (1952), sec. 266) be laundered by procedures usually used with untreated textiles of the same type, which procedure can include the use of hypochlorite bleaching agents, without suffering additional damage because of the wrinkle resistance treatment.
Fabrics composed of cellulosic fibers, such as cotton,
rayon and the like have poor resiliency and consequently, when in use tend to become wrinkled and acquire a mussed or unpleasant appearance. In order to overcome this objectionable property, it hasbcen the practice to treat cellulosic fabrics with the methylol derivatives of organic nitrogen compounds, such as amine. Such treatments are indeed successful in improving the resiliency of the cellulosic fabric and so producing a resistance to wrinkling. The fabrics so treated, however, cannot be bleached by ordinary methods using a hypochlorite bleaching agent without suffering discoloration or severe loss in strength either in the bleaching operation or on subsequent ironing. This is a major objection to the use of these treatments, particularly on white cellulosic fabrics.
Recently, the methylol derivatives of some special organic nitrogen compounds have been used to avoid this rea, guanidine, or melobjectionable feature of the treatments. An example of this type compound is dimethylol ethyleneurea. This compound has been found to be effective in preventing any damage from the use of hypochlorite bleaching agents on fabric treated with it, and at the same time imparts a high degree of resiliency to the fabric. After repeated laundering, however, fabric treated with dimethylol ethyleneurea is susceptible to damage from the hypochlorite bleaching agents although the fabric retains its resiliency. In other words, the effectiveness of dimethylol ethyleneurea in preventing damage to the treated fabrics from hypochlorite bleaching agents is not durable although the resiliency imparted to the fabric is durable.
Another class of compounds that has been proposed for use in the treatment of cellulosic fabrics to improve their resiliency is polymeric acetals formed by the reaction of formaldehyde with polyhydroxy compounds. Fabric treated with these compounds has no tendency to suffer damage from exposure to hypochlorite bleaching agents. However, the improvement in resiliency imparted by these compounds is relatively small and, therefore, the treated fabrics have only a weak resistance to wrinkling or mussing.
We have found that cellulosic fabrics may be treated with a mixture of dimethylol ethyleneurea and the previously mentioned polymeric formaldehyde acetals to produce treated fabrics having a high degree of resiliency and a strong resistance to wrinkling and mussing, such as produced by treatment with dimethylol ethyleneurea alone. Fabrics treated with the aforementioned mixture do not suffer damage on hypochlorite bleaching. Surprisingly, this resistance to damage from hypochlorite bleaching agents is retained after repeated launderings, in spite of the presence of dimethylol ethyleneurea in the mixture used for the treatment. Furthermore, the original resiliency and strong resistance to wrinkling and mussing is also retained after the repeated launde'rings.
It is an object of this invention, therefore, to provide a process for the treatment of textile fabrics composed mainly of cellulose whereby the fabric obtains the properties of increased resiliency, wrinkle resistance, muss re-} sistance, and a shape-holding ability and which properties are retained after repeated laundering. It is furthermore an object of this invention to provide such a treatment whereby the treated fabrics, with the properties described, may be laundered by ordinary procedures, which procedures may include the use of hypochlorite bleaching agents, without suffering discoloration -or loss in strength in the laundering procedure or subsequent treatment greater than occurring on untreated fabric, and this ability is also retained after repeated laundering.
The objects of this invention are accomplished by the treatment of the cellulosic textile with an aqueous solution containing: (1) 3 to 7% of dimethylol ethyleneurea; (2) 5 to 10% of a polymeric acetal formed from formaldehyde and a polyhydroxy compound; and (3) l to 6% of an acidic condensation catalyst, which can either be an acidic substance or a substance that forms acids on heating, to promote condensation of the other components. A metal salt of a strong mineral acid is a particularly suitable acidic condensation catalyst to use in the process of the present invention.
Treatment of the textile according to the process of this invention comprises impregnating (thoroughly Wetting) the textile with the above-described solution, mechanically removing excess liquid, then drying and curing the goods. All of these steps can be conveniently carried out with conventional textile finishing equipment. The Wet pickup (increase in weight of the textile upon Wetting), after mechanically removing excess liquid, should preferably be from about to Adjustment to the desired wet pickup can be conveniently achieved by passing'the impregnated textile through squeeze rolls or the like. The drying time and temperature are not critical, but it is preferable to dry the wet textile, adjusted to the desired pickup, at relatively low temperature, from about 60 C. to C., until the textile is dry to the touch; After drying, the textile is cured by subjecting it to a higher temperature, from about to C., for a brief time, usually from about 3 to 6 minutes, to cause condensation of the applied materials. In the curing operation, the longer time is used with the lower curing temperature.
Following the curing operation, it is preferable to water-wash the treated textile to remove any remaining unreacted materials or objectionable byproducts of the condensation. The washing operation can be conveniently carried out using the procedures and equipment conventionally employed for the washing of textiles.
In addition to the dimethylol ethyleneurea, the polymeric formaldehyde acetal, and the acidic condensation catalyst, the treating mixture of this invention may also contain wetting agents, softening agents, thermoplastic polymeric additives such as polyethylenes, polyacrylates, silicones and the like, and other components commonly included in conventional wrinkle resistance treatments.
The process of this invention can be used to treat substantially any hydrophilic fibrous cellulosic material such as cotton, rayon, rarnie, jute and the like which can be impregnated with a liquid, dried, and cured.
The following examples are illustrative of the details of at least one method of practicing the present invention. All parts and percentages are by weight.
Example 1 A polymeric diethylene glycol-formaldehyde acetal was prepared essentially as described in U .8.
