Definitions
- This invention relates to synthetic fibers having thereon an antistatic finish which minimizes the accumulation of charges of static electricity during normal use and finishing operations. More particularly, this invention relates to treated synthetic fibers which process readily through the usual operations of textile manufacture without the application of special processing agents and which have a resistance to the accumulation of static electricity which is not lost after repeated washings.
- Synthetic fibers are at a distinct disadvantage when compared with natural fibers in at least one respect for synthetic fibers have the tendency to collect static electrical charges during the manufacture and wearing thereof. Finished synthetic textile fabrics fail to drape like cotton or Wool due to the accumulation of the static charges thereon and have a tendency to cling uncomfortably to the wearer. The static charges also attract dust and lint to the fabric. It is well known in the art that polyamines are eifective temporary antistatic agents but lack durability when washed and have the tendency to impart undesirable characteristics to the fiber to which they are applied, such as, unpleasant hand, discoloration and the like.
- Amine/epoxy compositions are known to be effective adhesives and may be used for cementing together not only similar materials but such dissimilar materials as metals, wood, fabric, glass, and rubber.
- a polyamine/epoxy composition of the prior art was applied in an aqueous suspension in a known manner to an acrylic fiber during the spinning operation, there was an extreme buildup of the polymerized polyamine/epoxy material on the curing roll surfaces. Individual filaments were cemented together in bundles and the cementing of some of the filaments to the roll surfaces resulted in many broken filaments and wholly unsatisfactory spinning results.
- the polyamine/epoxy composition may be padded on a finished fabric, film or any hydrophobic shaped structure. That substrate is then protected from the collection of excess static charges by the finish.
- Treatment of the finished fiber with the same polyamine/epoxy composition and curing either by heat treatment of prolonged standing of the fiber under ambient conditions in staple form avoided the problems associated with application during the spinning of the fiber, but gave a harsh fiber product which processed extremely poorly on woolen systems machinery and which showed high card loading that could not be corrected by the application of softeners, lubricants, or other finishing agents to the fiber.
- an object of this invention is to provide a novel process and composition of matter which will impart antistatic protection to a synthetic, hydrophobic shaped structure without causing objectionable changes in the properties thereof.
- Another object of this invention is to provide a process which will continuously impart durable antistatic protection to a synthetic textile fiber during the manufacture thereof.
- a further object of this invention is to provide a synthetic fiber having a durable antistatic finish which is acceptable to the woolen system for textile processing without further treatment.
- a synthetic textile fiber is provided with durable antistatic properties by continuously associating the fiber during the spinning thereof with an aqueous polyamine/epoxy composition which may also contain a third ingredient.
- the fiber is formed from an acrylic polymer
- the composition was applied before the fiber had completely collapsed, for upon the closing of the fissures in the fiber, a number of the polyamine/ epoxy molecules are trapped therein thereby giving added durability to the finish.
- the polyamine/epoxy molecule carries a plus charge due to the presence of a quaternary ammonium group on the end thereof. This aids the oxygen and nitrogen atoms, which are present in the long-chain molecule, in the conduction of static electrical charges.
- the third ingredient mentioned prevents the filaments from sticking together during the spinning thereof and from adhering to the textile machinery. This ingredient is not a necessary one unless the finish is applied to the fibers before being processed on standard textile equipment. Therefore, the particular use of the antistatic composition determines whether the third ingredient is to be added to the finish composition.
- the use of these antistatic agents effects improvements in the characteristics of acrylonitrile polymers and articles produced therefrom.
- the invention is applicable not only to polyacrylonitrile, but also to copolymers, interpolymers, and blends thereof, particularly those containing at least percent by weight of polymerized or copolymerized acrylonitrile.
- Such polymeric materials include acrylonitrile fiber-forming polymers with readily dyeable basic copolymers, the blend having an overall polymerized acrylonitrile content of at least 80 percent by weight.
- the polymer may be a copolymer of from 80 to 98 percent of acrylonitrile and from 2 to 20 percent of another copolymerizable mono-olefinic monomer.
- Suitable copolymerizable mono-olefinic monomers include acrylic, alphachloroacrylic and methacrylic acids, the acrylates, such as methylmethacrylate, ethylmethacrylate, butylmethacrylate, methoxyhnethyl methacrylate, betachloroethyl methacrylate, and the corresponding esters of acrylic and alpha-chloroacrylic acids; vinyl chloride, vinyl fluoride, vinyl bromide, vinylidene chloride, l-chloro-lbromoethylene; methacrylonitrile; acrylamide and methacrylamide; alpha-chloroacrylamide, or monoalkyl substitution products thereof; 'methyl vinyl ketone; vinyl carboxylates, such as vinyl acetate, vinyl chloroacetate, vinyl
- the polymer can be a ternary interpolymer for example, products obtained by the interpolymerization of acrylonitrile and two or more of any of the monomers, other than acrylonitrile, enumerated above. More specifically, and preferably, the ternary polymers contain from 80 to 98 percent of acrylonitrile, from 1 to percent of a vinylpyridine or l-vinylimidazole, and from 1 to 18 percent of another copolymerizable mono-olefinic substance, such as methacrylonitrile, vinyl acetate, methylmethacrylate, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, and the like.
- the polymer can also be a blend of polyacrylonitrile or a copolymer of from 90 to 99 percent acrylonitrile and from 1 to 20 percent of at least one other mono-olefinic copolymerizable monomeric substance with from 2 to 50 percent of the weight of the blend of a copolymer of from 30 to 90 percent of a vinyl substituted tertiary heterocyclic amine and from 10 to 70 percent of at least one other mono-olefinic copolymerizable monomer.
- the polymeric material when it comprises a blend, it will be a blend of from 80 to 99 percent of a copolymer of 80 to 98 percent acrylonitrile and from 2 to 20' percent of another mono-olefinic monomer, such as vinyl acetate, which is not receptive to dyestufi, with from 1 to 20 percent of a coplymer of from 30 to 90 percent of a vinyl-substituted tertiary heterocyclic amine, such as vinylpyridine, a l-vinylimidazole, or a vinyl lactam, and from 10 to 70* percent of acrylonitrile to give a dyeable blend having an overall vinyl-substituted tertiary heterocyclic amine content of from 2 to 10 percent, based on the weight of the blend.
- a copolymer of 80 to 98 percent acrylonitrile with from 1 to 20 percent of a coplymer of from 30 to 90 percent of a vinyl-substituted tert
- Such a fiber may be formed by extruding a typical acrylonitrile-based spinning dope through a conventional spinnerette into an aqueous coagulation bath wherein the dope hardens into a filament. After the fibers were washed and stretched as they were drawn up a hot water cascade, they were heated and partially dried on a set of drying rolls. When the moisture content of the fiber was from 10 to 50 percent by weight and the temperature of the filaments has reached approximately 100 C., they are immersed in an aqueous emulsion which contains:
- the mixture preferably also contains a dispersing or emulsifying agent which insures a more homogeneous suspension of the several ingredients and, because of the reactive nature of these ingredients, it is preferably held at temperatures below about 40 C. in order to prevent premature polymerization and to thus extend the useful pot life of the mixture.
- the treated fibers then continue through a series of heated rolls during which time the fibers are completely dried and the antistatic coating is polymerized by the heat fromthe rolls thereby forming a veneer around the fibers.
- the time required for a segment of fiber to complete its course through the dual series of heated rolls and the application bat-h is typically 30 to 60 seconds.
- these antistatic agents may also be used in combination with other textile filaments, such as polyester fibers and articles produced therefrom.
- a fiber was formed by extruding a typical polyester melt, such as polyethylene terephthalate, through a conventional spinnerette downwardly through a chimney where the melt was air quenched and was hardened into filaments. The fibers were converged and collected on a bobbin as undrawn yarn. A number of bobbins were then combined and a tow was formed by continuously pulling the yarn therefrom. The tow was heated to at least 40 C. by being passed under a hot Water spray. The fibrous tow then passed into a draw zone where the temperature thereof was increased to C.- C.
- the antistatic finish is especially useful on fibers composed of polyamide fibers.
- Simple linear polyamides which are normally insoluble in alcohol but are soluble in phenols and they are of two types, those derived from polymerizable monoaminomonocarboxylic acids or their amide forming derivatives and those derived from the reaction of a suitable diamine with suitable dicarboxylic acids. On hydrolysis with mineral acids, the polyamides yield monomeric amide forming reactants.
- the activating compounds of this invention are applicable to the polycarbonamides of the type derived from the reaction of a suitable diamine with a suitable dicarboxylic acid.
- polycarbonamide On hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid, these polycarbonamides yield the dibasic acid and the diamine hydrochloride.
- These polycarbonamides are of the general type disclosed in US. Patents 2,071,250, 2,071,253, and 3,130,- 948.
- the term polycarbonamide means polymers having recurring units of formula:
- R is hydrogen or a monovalent hydrocarbon radical as integral parts of the main polymer chain, the average number of carbon atoms separating the amide groups being at least two.
- this invention is concerned with the simple, unsubstituted polyamides such as the polymers formed by the reaction of tetramethylene diamine and adipic acid, tetramethylenediamine suberic acid, tetramethylenediamine with sebacic acid, hexamethylenediamine with adipic acid, hexamethylenediamine with suberic acid and hexamethylenediamine with sebacic acid.
- this invention will cover any nylon formed from a diamine and a dicarboxylic acid as well as those formed from the interpolymerization of monoaminomonocarboxylic acid.
- polymers formed from the reaction of two or more diamines with dicarboxylic acids and/ or two or more dicarboxylic acids with diamines are contemplated.

- the permanency of the antistatic coating which has been applied to the fibers was checked in the following manner.
- the fibers are converted into yarn and the yarn is knitted into a tubular fabric shape whereupon the fabric is blank dyed by any conventional dyeing process. In the examples below, it will be seen that all of the samples were not blank dyed.
- the fabric is then washed in a Kenmore washing machine at 110 F. using 0.5 percent aqueous solution Tide detergent for four minutes or alternatively, a 0.3 percent solution of tetra sodium pyrophosphate may be used as the detergent. After the tube is removed from the washing machine, it is centrifuged to remove the excess moisture.
- polyethylene glycol 600 is reacted with thionyl chloride to form polyethylene glycol 600 dichloride.
- the latter is extended with monoethylamine so that both active hydrogens react and two molecules of HCl are split out.
- the final mechanism for crosslinking the finish to render it permanent by reaction with an epoxide is assumed to proceed through the hydrogen of the secondary amine.
- Such amines may be methylamine, ethylamine, propylamine, butylamine, amylarnine, hexylamine, dodecylamine, 3-isopropyl-n-proparnine and the like.
