Definitions

  • the invention relates to carriers, their preparations and processes for dyeing polyester materials with disperse dyes in the presence of these carriers.
  • Known carriers used in textile practice in dyeing polyester include halogenobenzenes, halogen toluenes, N-alkylphthalimides, aromatic carboxylic esters, methylnaphthalene, diphenyl, diphenyl ether, naphthol ether, phenol ether and oxydiphenyls.
  • these connections have disadvantages. All compounds, with the exception of the N-alkylphthalimides, have a strong intrinsic odor. Methylnaphthalene and the oxydiphenyls adversely affect the lightfastness of the dyeings. Diphenyl ether has the disadvantage that its carrier activity depends strongly on the constitution of the disperse dye used and therefore often no reproducible colorations are obtained.
  • N-alkylphthalimides show a sharp drop in the dyeing temperature below 98 ° C. Carrier effect, which limits their use in higher regions, where this temperature is not reached with open dyeing machines. Phthalic acid esters and benzoic acid esters have only a limited carrier effect and a limited leveling capacity and therefore require high amounts.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide highly effective, halogen-free carriers which bring about the most level possible coloring with a small amount used.
  • the dyeing achieved should meet high authenticity standards, and when dyeing mixed fibers, the accompanying fiber should not be soiled.
  • the carriers according to the invention are a mixture of N-alkylphthalimides (I) and compounds of the general formula wherein R is C1-C7 alkyl; Phenyl, benzyl or phenylethyl, which can be substituted by C1-C4-alkyl, C1-C4-alkoxy or C1-C4-alkoxycarbonyl.
  • R1 is hydrogen, C1-C4-alkyl, C1-C4-alkylcarbonyloxy, hydroxy or C1-C4-alkoxycarbonyl, m 0 or 1, n is 0 or 1, where m and n are not simultaneously 0, contain, is solved.
  • These mixtures of carrier active substances show a synergistic increase in the color-accelerating effect compared to the individual components.
  • the preferred weight ratio of N-alkylphthalimides (I) to the compounds (II) is 0.5-12: 1.
  • the carrier mixtures according to the invention are water-insoluble, they are preferably added to the dyeing liquors in the form of preparations which contain emulsifiers or dispersants and, if appropriate, solvents.
  • N-alkylphthalimides (I) are understood to mean, in particular, straight-chain or branched alkyl radicals (C1-C6) on the nitrogen-substituted phthalimides or mixtures thereof which, for. B. can be prepared by the reaction of phthalic anhydride or phthalic acid esters with amines.
  • the carriers can therefore contain phthalic acid amides and esters due to the manufacturing process.
  • Examples of the compounds (II) are aromatic monocarboxylic acid esters (e.g. esters of benzoic acid, methylbenzoic acid, salicylic acid), dicarboxylic acid esters (e.g. esters of terephthalic acid or phthalic acid), carbonates (e.g. diphenyl carbonate) and ethers (e.g. B. diphenyl ether or ditolyether).
  • aromatic monocarboxylic acid esters e.g. esters of benzoic acid, methylbenzoic acid, salicylic acid
  • dicarboxylic acid esters e.g. esters of terephthalic acid or phthalic acid
  • carbonates e.g. diphenyl carbonate
  • ethers e.g. B. diphenyl ether or ditolyether.
  • alcohol components of the esters such. B. C1-C6 alkanols, phenols and benzyl alcohol.
  • Nonionic and anionic emulsifiers are preferred as emulsifiers 3.).
  • emulsifiers are mixtures of a) ethoxylated oils, such as castor oil or soybean oil, ethoxylated alcohols, alkylphenol polyglycol ethers or phenylalkylphenol polyglycol ethers, b) alkali metal, alkaline earth metal and / or ammonium salts of organic sulfonic acids containing at least 10 carbon atoms, such as dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid, Sulfo fatty acids and ricinoleyl methyl tauride.
  • ethoxylated oils such as castor oil or soybean oil, ethoxylated alcohols, alkylphenol polyglycol ethers or phenylalkylphenol polyglycol ethers
  • z. B. alkanols, glycols, ketones, N-substituted caprolactams or ethers can be used.
  • the carrier mixtures according to the invention are well compatible with other carriers, they can also be used in a mixture with known other carriers.
  • the disperse dyes used for dyeing are the disperse dyes usually used for dyeing polyesters, as described, for example, in "Color Index” Vol. 2, pp. 2483-2741, 3rd edition (1971).
  • the dyeing in the presence of the carriers according to the invention is carried out according to the batchwise methods customary for dyeing with disperse dyes; the usual process operating at 98 ° C. and the high-temperature process may be mentioned as such.
  • the carrier blends according to the invention are also suitable for dyeing polyester / wool and polyester / cotton blended fabrics, because when they are used the soiling of the wool and cotton content is avoided by the disperse dyes.
  • the dyeing can be carried out at temperatures of 90-140 ° C, the preferred industrial application being at 90-150 ° C.
  • An additional advantage of the carrier settings described is the very good effectiveness below the cooking temperature, which pure N-alkylphthalimide carriers do not show, e.g. B. at 95 ° C, which is often not exceeded under practical conditions with open dyeing machines.
  • the amounts of the mixture of carriers (I) and (II) required to carry out the dyeing can easily be determined from case to case by preliminary tests. In general, amounts of 1 to 7 g per liter of dye liquor have proven themselves in the usual liquor ratios of 1: 5 to 1:40.
  • components (I) and (II) as carriers in dyeing polyester are known.
  • DE-PS 1 769 210 So z. B. the use of N-alkylphthalimides in DE-PS 1 769 210, the use of phthalic acid esters in US Pat. No. 4,032,291 and the use of benzoic acid esters in DE-A 2 348 363.
  • DE-PS 1 769 210 also discloses the use of mixtures of N-alkylphthalimides with disubstituted benzoic acid esters.
  • the mixtures according to the invention have a higher color-accelerating effect than corresponds to the sum of the individual effects.
  • This synergistic increase in the effectiveness is not shown by the mixtures known hitherto (for example the mixtures of N-alkylphthalimides with alkyl group-containing salicylic acid compounds described in DE-PS 1 769 210).
  • the mixing ratio at which the synergistic optimum is present depends on the components of the carrier mixtures and can easily be determined in individual cases by preliminary tests.
  • the pH of the bath is adjusted to pH 4.5-5 with acetic acid.
  • the bath is then heated to 98 ° C. and held at this temperature for 60 minutes. A uniform blue color is obtained.
  • the carrier effectiveness of the carrier mixtures of Examples 1-12 is determined by comparing the color depths achieved.
  • the small amounts of the mixtures demonstrate their more advantageous carrier activity compared to the individual components. example % By weight of the components in the mixture required amount of mixture Component II 1 60 I. 80 100 25 II 2nd 55 I 80 90 30 II 3rd 75 I 80 120 10 II 4th 50 I. 80 125 35 II 5 50 I. 60 80 35 II 6 60 I. 80 120 25 II 7 70 I 80 90 15 II 8th 50 I. 80 100 35 II 9 63 I 60 80 22 II 10th 70 I 90 120 15 II 11 50 I. 80 100 35 II 12 60 I. 90 120 25 II
  • this mixture shows no synergistic increase in carrier effectiveness compared to the individual components.
  • the pH of the bath is adjusted to pH 4.5-5 with acetic acid.
  • the dye liquor is then brought to the boiling temperature and held at this temperature for one hour. A full, even red color is achieved.
  • Polyester staple fibers are introduced in a liquor ratio of 1:15 into a dyeing liquor containing 1 g of a disperse dye according to Example 14 per liter, 0.03 g of a dye according to the Color Index, 2nd edition (1956) Volume 3, No. 12790, 2nd g of a condensation product of naphthalene sulfonate and formaldehyde, 2 g of sodium dihydrogen phosphate and 3.5 g of a carrier setting of Example 14.
