Description
Procédé de préparation d'une solution de xanthate de cellulose. Pour obtenir des solutions de xanthate de cellulose connues sous le nom de "viscose", la cellulose est généralement d'abord traitée avec une solution de soude caustique conve nablement concentrée et ensuite traitée avec la, quantité nécessaire de sulfure de' carbone pour obtenir un xanthate de cellulose, qui est finalement dissous dans de l'eau de manière à obtenir une solution contenant ledit xan- thate.
Ce procédé présente certaines difficultés pratiques provenant de l'inégalité de l'action de la soude caustique sur la cellulose, inéga lité qui provoque un manque d'homogénéité correspondant de la solution finalement obte nue, et se traduit par des irrégularités très fâcheuses dans les produits de cellulose ré générée, fabriqués avec cette solution, en par ticulier lorsqu'il s'agit de soie artificielle ou de films transparents.
Le procédé faisant l'objet de la, présente invention a pour but de remédier à cet incon vénient, c'est-à-dire d'uniformiser l'action de la soude caustique de façon que la. solution de xanthate obtenue soit homogène et débar rassée de particules à l'état @de gelée, et d'a- méliorer la cellulose régénérée de cette solu tion et de lui donner une composition chimi que plus pure et plus rapprochée de celle de la cellulose ordinaire.
Selon ce procédé, on soumet la cellulose, par exemple dans un vase hermétiquement clos, d'abord à l'action d'une solution d'un alcali caustique à basse température ne dépassant pas -f- 5 C, et on la traite ensuite avec du sulfure de carbone.
Ce procédé présente l'avantage de réduire le gonflement de la masse fibreuse, et de pro duire finalement une solution de xanthate de cellulose beaucoup moins visqueuse que celle qu'on obtient avec le procédé connu.
Avant que la solution de soude caustique à basse température soit mise en contact avec la masse de cellulose, on peut au besoin raréfier l'air se. trouvant dans le vase clos.
En pratique, la température de la solu tion d'alcali caustique peut être abaissée à - 2 C avant son entrée en contact avec la masse de cellulose.
Au lieu de faire le vide dans le vase clos au-dessus de la masse de cellulose, on petit remplir ce vase soit avec un gaz soluble dans la solution alcaline, tel que, par exemple; le gaz ammoniac, soit avec un gaz réagissant chimiquement avec cette dernière, comme, par exemple, l'anhydride sulfureux (S W. Les gaz peuvent être maintenus en contact avec la masse de cellulose pendant un certain temps, une demi-heure par exemple, avant l'introduction de la. Solution caustique a basse température.
Lorsque cette dernière est en suite introduite, elle coule sur et à travers la masse de cellulose, laquelle est ainsi préser vée de l'oxydation, et est transformée en un produit mercerisé ou en cellulose alcalinisée. Si la quantité du gaz introduit dans le vase est trop grande, on peut évacuer le surplus ayant l'introduction de la solution alcaline.
On peut faire le vide à l'intérieur du vase contenant la. masse de cellulose avant ou après, ou avant et après l'arrivée du gaz non oxydant en contact avec la masse de cellulose.
La partie du procédé consistant à sou mettre la cellulose à l'action d'une dépression avant le mercerisage est connue, la nouveauté de l'in z,-ention consiste à soumettre cette cel lulose à. l'action d'une solution de soude caus tique ou d'un alcali caustique quelconque à basse température ne dépassant pas 5 C, de préférence vers 0 .
Process for preparing a cellulose xanthate solution. To obtain solutions of cellulose xanthate known as "viscose", the cellulose is generally first treated with a suitably concentrated caustic soda solution and then treated with the necessary amount of carbon disulphide to obtain a solution. cellulose xanthate, which is finally dissolved in water so as to obtain a solution containing said xanthate.
This process presents certain practical difficulties arising from the unevenness of the action of caustic soda on the cellulose, an inequality which causes a corresponding lack of homogeneity of the solution finally obtained bare, and results in very annoying irregularities in the re-generated cellulose products produced with this solution, in particular when it comes to artificial silk or transparent films.
The object of the method of the present invention is to remedy this drawback, that is to say to standardize the action of the caustic soda so that the. xanthate solution obtained is homogeneous and freed from particles in the frozen state, and to improve the regenerated cellulose of this solution and to give it a chemical composition which is purer and closer to that of cellulose ordinary.
According to this process, the cellulose is subjected, for example in a hermetically sealed vessel, first to the action of a solution of a caustic alkali at low temperature not exceeding -f- 5 C, and then treated. with carbon disulphide.
This process has the advantage of reducing the swelling of the fibrous mass, and ultimately of producing a cellulose xanthate solution that is much less viscous than that obtained with the known process.
Before the low temperature caustic soda solution comes into contact with the cellulose mass, the air can be rarefied if necessary. found in the vacuum.
In practice, the temperature of the caustic alkali solution can be lowered to −2 ° C. before it comes into contact with the cellulose mass.
Instead of creating a vacuum in the closed vessel above the cellulose mass, we can fill this vessel either with a gas soluble in the alkaline solution, such as, for example; ammonia gas, or with a gas which reacts chemically with the latter, such as, for example, sulfur dioxide (S W. The gases can be kept in contact with the mass of cellulose for a certain time, for example half an hour , before the introduction of the caustic solution at low temperature.
When the latter is subsequently introduced, it flows over and through the mass of cellulose, which is thus preserved from oxidation, and is transformed into a mercerized product or into alkalized cellulose. If the quantity of gas introduced into the vessel is too large, it is possible to remove the surplus having the introduction of the alkaline solution.
We can create a vacuum inside the vessel containing the. mass of cellulose before or after, or before and after the arrival of the non-oxidizing gas in contact with the mass of cellulose.
The part of the process consisting in submitting the cellulose to the action of a vacuum before mercerization is known, the novelty of the in z, -ention consists in subjecting this cellulose to. the action of a caustic soda solution or any caustic alkali at low temperature not exceeding 5 C, preferably towards 0.
