Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for solidifying fiber structures by treatment with aqueous plastic dispersions.
  • the choice of the plastic dispersions to be used depends, among other things, on whether the finished fiber structure should be resistant to organic solvents. If this is not the case, plastic dispersions can be used which are free of formaldehyde-releasing substances and whose plastic content is essentially composed, for example, of alkyl esters of acrylic or methacrylic acid, vinyl esters and / or styrene and small amounts of ⁇ , ⁇ -unsaturated carboxylic acids. If, on the other hand, resistance to organic solvents or plasticizers is required, plastic dispersions are used that can be crosslinked at elevated temperatures after coating or soaking and drying.
  • crosslinking is achieved either by adding water-soluble aminoplast resins to the dispersions of the type mentioned above or by using plastic dispersions in the formation of which condensable formaldehyde derivatives, in particular N-methylol-aorylamide or -methacrylamide, are involved.
  • the invention has for its object to provide fiber structures with an equipment which is at least limited solvent-resistant or block-free or tack-free, and for this purpose to use an aqueous plastic dispersion which is free of formaldehyde-releasing substances and whose plastic content consists predominantly of alkyl esters of acrylic or methacrylic acid, and small amounts of ⁇ , ß-tm saturated carboxylic acids.
  • Stability of the coatings or impregnations produced according to the invention depends on the fact that the acrylic or methacrylic acid in the form of its alkali metal or ammonium salt is dissolved in the template in the preparation of the plastic dispersion to be used by the feed process.
  • Equivalent plastic dispersions cannot be prepared by gradually adding the acrylic or methacrylic acid or its salts together with the other monomers during the feed process, or by adding the acrylic or methacrylic acid as such to the initial charge and only neutralizing it after the polymerization.
  • plastic dispersions which are free of formaldehyde-releasing substances by the process indicated above are known from OE-PS 236 643 and from FR-PS 1 157 265.
  • the plastic dispersions produced in this way have not yet been used to solidify fiber structures.
  • the impregnations and coatings obtained in this way would be distinguished by improved resistance to organic solvents.
  • Plastic dispersions with a minimum film-forming temperature are particularly advantageous for the process of the invention below 25 ° C and with a T ⁇ max value of the dispersed plastic (according to DIN 53445) below 50 ° C.
  • the plastic portion of the dispersion is preferably composed of more than 50% by weight of acrylic acid alkyl esters with 1 to 8 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical and the rest predominantly of methacrylic acid alkyl esters with 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl radical.
  • Other water-insoluble monomers, such as styrene, vinyl acetate or vinylidene chloride can be involved in minor amounts in the construction of the plastic.
  • the proportion of acrylic and / or methacrylic acid polymerized in salt form is preferably 2 to 3% by weight, calculated as free acid and. based on the weight of the plastic.
  • the alkali salts are preferably the sodium and potassium salts.
  • the ammonium salts can be derived from ammonia or from organic amines, such as, for example, ethanolamine.
  • the preferred method for producing the plastic dispersion is the emulsion feed method. Part of the amount of water provided as the aqueous phase of the dispersion is placed in the polymerization vessel and the salt of acrylic and / or methacrylic acid is dissolved therein.
  • a conventional anionic or nonionic emulsifier and a water-soluble polymerization initiator, such as potassium or ammonium peroxydisulfate, can be dissolved in the initial charge.
  • the initial charge is brought to a temperature suitable for carrying out the polymerization, preferably to about 50 to 80 ° C.
  • the monomers to be polymerized are emulsified, for which purpose a further amount of an emulsifier is advantageously used.
  • the monomer emulsion is gradually let into the Run in template while the polymerization is taking place at the same time.
  • Additional polymerization initiators can be added continuously or in individual additions during the polymerization.
  • the amount of water and monomers are preferably matched to one another in such a way that a 40-60% dispersion is formed.
  • the use of emulsifiers can optionally be dispensed with.
  • the monomers, besides the acrylic acid or methacrylic acid salt, can also be added gradually in non-emulsified form. In this case, the entire water phase is added to the template at the beginning of the process.
  • the fiber structures that are consolidated according to the invention can consist of natural fibers, man-made fibers or of mixtures of different types of fibers.
  • the consolidation of mineral fiber structures e.g. made of glass fibers or rock wool.
  • Flat fiber structures are essentially equipped; these include woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, non-woven fabrics, and papers, in particular absorbent base papers and cardboards.
  • the plastic dispersion can be applied as a coating on the surface of the fiber structure.
  • the fiber structure is preferably treated with the plastic dispersion in such a way that an impregnation which strengthens the entire cross section is achieved.
  • Plastic dispersion depends on the intended use of the solidified fiber structure. It can range from a slight consolidation with 5 - 20% dry plastic weight, based on the fiber weight, to a plastic filling with 100% by weight plastic, based on the fiber weight, or more.
  • a preferred application of the invention is the consolidation of light nonwovens with a weight per unit area of not more than 60 g / m2.
  • the dispersion can be applied to or introduced into the fiber structure by impregnation, spraying, splashing, brushing or printing. Depending on the application method used, the dispersion can be applied as a dilute liquor, for example with a binder content of 15 to 30% by weight, or as a thickened paste or as a foam. Conventional thickeners, such as cellulose derivatives or water-soluble synthetic polymers, can be reacted in the pastes; the binder content is preferably 20 to 40% by weight.
  • the coated or impregnated fiber structure is dried. Conventional flat web dryers, cylinder dryers or screen drum dryers can be used for this.
  • the treated fiber structure is less prone to sticking to warm metal surfaces than products equipped with purely thermoplastic dispersions.
  • the so-called "binder tri wash loss”, abbreviated BTV, is suitable, the determination of which is explained in more detail in the examples under IV.
  • BTV binder tri wash loss
  • the binder loss in the fiber structures impregnated by the process of the invention is reduced to a fraction of this value.
  • an alkali methacrylate content of 1% (calculated as methacrylic acid, based on the plastic weight), a BTV value between 30 and 50% is achieved.
  • BKV Binder-Kochwasch-loss
  • the BKV value depends to a large extent on the drying temperature. After drying at room temperature, BKV values of up to 70% are observed. After drying or reheating at temperatures between 80 and 120 ° - especially with a low carboxylate content - only binder losses of a few percent can be determined.
  • binder losses In the preferred range of 2-3% by weight of carboxylate units, binder losses of between 4 and 10% by weight occur.
  • the binder losses depend on the type of fiber material and the plastic dispersion; the values mentioned here apply to a polyester fabric which was equipped with 50% by weight of a plastic dispersion composed of methyl methacrylate and butyl acrylate as the main components.
  • Comparative dispersion C prepared in accordance with Example 10, but with the addition of methacrylic acid in the form of the free acid together with the monomer feed.
  • Comparative dispersion D prepared like comparative dispersion C, but neutralized the methacrylic acid units with the equivalent amount of KOH after completion of the polymerization.
  • Comparative dispersion E prepared as in Example 10, but gradual addition of the potassium methacrylate simultaneously with the addition of the other monomers.
  • a polyester fabric with a basis weight of 100 g / m 2 made of polyester staple fibers is soaked with a dispersion at room temperature and by means of a laboratory pad squeezed to a liquor absorption of 80 to 100% (based on the weight of the fabric).
  • the moist fabric strip is dried in a tensioned state for 5 minutes at 120 ° C in a forced-air drying cabinet.
  • Tri ⁇ sche A sample of 18 x 18 cm size is 80 * moves min at 20 C with 125 ml trichlorethylene, then rinsed with 100 ml trichlorethylene and dried for 30 min at 80th After storage for half an hour at room temperature, the sample is weighed out. The weight loss is determined in percent, based on the weight of the binder in the sample used.
  • Cottons A sample of 18 x 18 cm in size is washed for 10 min at 90 ° with 125 ml of an aqueous washing liquor containing 3 g of Marseille soap and 2 g of calc. Soda contains, agitated, then rinsed once with 90 ° C hot and once with cold water and Dried at 90 ° C for 30 min. 30 minutes after drying, the sample is weighed and the binder loss in percent, based on the weight of the binder in the sample used, is determined.
  • the comparative dispersions show that without neutralization of the carboxyl groups of the binder polymer (comparative dispersion C) very high binder losses occur during tri-washing. These losses are significantly reduced by neutralization, while the losses in hot water only increase insignificantly despite the increased polarity of the binder. With subsequent neutralization (comparative dispersion D), particularly low binder losses are found, but the tests described under III indicate a high sensitivity of the film to plasticizers. If the methacrylic acid salt (reference dispersion E) is added uniformly, the binder losses are higher than when used in the receiver according to the invention (example 10), but significantly lower than in the case of non-neutralized binder resin. In contrast, the swelling in the plasticizer (see under III) is unfavorably high.
