Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sheet-like treating agent containing an antifungal agent essential for the treatment of mycosis, and more particularly to drying of a textile product during washing and ironing. The present invention relates to a textile product treatment material which can be used at the time of heat treatment and can impart a good antifungal effect to textile products.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to treat mycosis such as athlete's foot, it is common practice to directly apply a drug containing an antifungal agent to an affected area. Since fungicides are generally hardly soluble in water in solid form, the therapeutic agent is creamy or liquid. In this case, the treatment of mycosis is performed by directly applying an antifungal agent to the affected area by hand, and is usually applied two to three times a day. It is troublesome to perform a therapeutic action in the meantime, and mycosis may cause complications with other bacteria and cause dermatitis, but socks and the like tend to be a hotbed of such bacteria.

[0003] In recent years, there have been many proposals to impart antifungal properties by treating clothes with an antifungal agent for the purpose of preventing and treating mycosis, such as socks, underwear, and the like provided with antifungal properties. There are many clothes on the market.

Such a proposal is disclosed in, for example,
As described in -126901, there is known a method in which a sock is immersed in a drug and dried to impregnate the drug into the sock.

[0005] However, this method requires a new operation of dipping the socks in a chemical solution and drying them after the rinsing of the conventional washing process has been completed and before drying them, which complicates the washing operation. In particular, when performing antifungal treatment of clothes at home, it is troublesome and troublesome.

Further, JP-A-7-300796, JP-A-54-82,500, and JP-A-53-131989
No. 5 has proposed that fibers are treated in advance with a substance having an antifungal effect, and if clothing is manufactured from the treated fibers, antifungal properties are imparted to the clothing. Antifungals may decrease over time, and may be less effective when used by ordinary consumers.
There is a problem that antifungal substances are gradually lost due to general use of clothes such as laundry, and the antifungal property is completely lost.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can be easily used at home without changing the conventional washing process, and can surely and uniformly impart antifungal properties to textiles. An object of the present invention is to provide a textile material treatment material.

[0008]

Means for Solving the Problems and Embodiments of the Invention The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to achieve the above object, and as a result, have found that clotrimazole, tolnaftate, and nitric acid, which are generally known as therapeutic agents for mycosis. A treatment material in which an antifungal agent selected from miconazole, pyrrole nitrin, and trimethylcetyl ammonium pentachlorophenate is supported on a breathable or porous substrate such as a nonwoven fabric is placed in a dryer together with textiles and dried. The antifungal agent is uniformly adhered to textile products such as socks and underwear, and the antifungal agent adheres to the textile product in a permeated state by or by laminating the textile with the treated material and ironing. As a result, the effect is durable, and the textile product does not become a hotbed of various germs. And we found that it is possible to perform,
The present invention has been made.

Accordingly, the present invention relates to a textile treatment material for adhering an antifungal agent to a textile product by bringing the textile product into contact with the textile product during drying or heat treatment in a washing process, and which is air-permeable or porous. A textile product treatment material comprising a base material carrying one or more antifungal agents selected from the group consisting of clotrimazole, tolnaftate, miconazole nitrate, pyrrolnitrin, and trimethylcetyl ammonium pentachlorophenate. I will provide a.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail. In the present invention, as a substrate on which the antifungal agent is supported, a permeable fabric substrate such as woven fabric or nonwoven fabric, open-cell or closed-cell polyurethane is used. Examples include a porous substrate such as a foam and other synthetic resin foams, and these are preferably used in a sheet form. In this case, the thickness of the sheet is preferably 0.05 to 0.5 mm, particularly 0.
1 to 0.3 mm is preferred. In addition, as the base material,
In particular, a non-woven fabric is preferably used. For example, a composite polyolefin fiber alone, a composite polyolefin fiber mixed with a polyester fiber, a polyamide fiber, a polyacrylonitrile fiber, a polypropylene fiber, etc., made into a sheet by a conventional method, and then produced by heat treatment. Can be used. In this case, the arrangement of the fibers is not particularly limited, such as a mesh, a woven, a woven, and a randomly oriented fiber. In addition, the length of the fiber is usually 38 to
102 mm and a thickness of 3 to 10 denier.

The antifungal agent carried on the substrate is
As described above, clotrimazole, tolnaftate, miconazole nitrate, pyrrolnitrin, one or more selected from the group of trimethylcetyl ammonium pentachlorophenate, and any antifungal agent is used for the treatment of general mycosis. It is usually a solid powder. The loading amount of these antifungal agents on the substrate is 0.03 to 1.5 g.
/ M ² , preferably 0.05 to 1.2 g / m ² . If the amount is less than 0.03 g / m ² , a sufficient effect may not be exhibited.

As a method of supporting the antifungal agent on a substrate, a meltable component such as a cationic surfactant, oil, fat, wax, or fiber softener which is solid at room temperature is mixed with the antifungal agent. To disperse the antifungal agent, impregnating the substrate in this state, or impregnating the substrate by dissolving or dispersing the antifungal agent, if necessary, the fusible component in a solvent, and then A method such as removal of the solvent may be employed.

In this case, as the cationic surfactant,
Various amine salts, quaternary ammonium salts, and the like,
Specifically, dialkyldimethylammonium chloride, dialkyldimethylammonium methyl sulfate, 2-heptadecyl-1-ethyl-1-[(2-octadecanoylamino) ethyl] imidazolinium ethyl sulfate and the like can be used. The fats and oils and waxes include higher fatty acids and esters thereof, and the above-mentioned cationic surfactant can be used as the fiber softening agent.

[0014] Incidentally, the supported amount of the base material of the fusible component, 12~75g / m ^2, particularly preferably a 20 to 60 g / m ^2. When the amount is less than 12 g / m ² , the effect may be insufficient, and when the amount is more than 75 g / m ^{2, the} touch feeling such as stickiness may deteriorate.

[0015] Examples of the solvent include lower alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and isopropyl alcohol.
Carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, hexane and the like are used.

If necessary, fatty acid alkanolamides, fatty acid esters, ethylene oxide adducts of higher alcohols and the like may be added to the treated material of the present invention as a softness and antistatic agent. May be added, and higher alcohols, fragrances, etc. may be added.

The textile-treated material of the present invention is used for drying the washed and rinsed textile product in a dryer when the treated product is put into a dryer together with the textile product and dried. In addition, the antifungal agent in the treated material is detached from the treated material by hot air, and migrates and adheres to the textile. Further, after drying, when ironing, the fiber product and the treatment material are overlapped, and in this state, the antifungal agent carried on the treatment material can be transferred and adhered to the fiber product by ironing. The amount of the processing material to be supplied to the dryer is 1 to 5 sheets (20 kg) for 1 kg of clothing.
× 20 cm), and more preferably 2 to 3 sheets.

[0018]

According to the present invention, an antifungal agent can be reliably and uniformly applied to a textile product in a series of daily washing operations, and the antifungal agent is thus attached. Wearing textiles such as socks can effectively prevent and treat mycosis.
