Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Bedrucken von textilen Fasermaterialien mit Dispersionsfarbstoffen nach dem Tintenstrahldruck-Verfahren (Jet- und Ink-Jet-Verfahren) sowie entsprechende Drucktinten.The present invention relates to a process for printing textile fiber materials with disperse dyes by the inkjet printing process (jet and ink jet processes) and corresponding printing inks.

Tintenstrahldruck-Verfahren werden bereits seit einigen Jahren in der Textilindustrie angewendet. Diese Verfahren ermöglichen es, auf die sonst übliche Herstellung einer Druckschablone zu verzichten, so dass erhebliche Kosten- und Zeiteinsparungen erzielt werden können. Insbesondere bei der Herstellung von Mustervorlagen kann innerhalb deutlich geringerer Zeit auf veränderte Bedürfnisse reagiert werden.Inkjet printing processes have been used in the textile industry for several years now. These methods make it possible to dispense with the usual production of a printing stencil, so that significant cost and time savings can be achieved. In particular, in the production of templates can be responded to changing needs within a much shorter time.

Entsprechende Tintenstrahldruck-Verfahren sollten insbesondere optimale anwendungstechnische Eigenschaften aufweisen. Zu erwähnen seien in diesem Zusammenhang Eigenschaften wie Viskosität, Stabilität, Oberflächenspannung und Leitfähigkeit der verwendeten Tinten. Ferner werden erhöhte Anforderungen an die Qualität der erhaltenen Drucke gestellt, wie z.B. bezüglich Farbstärke, Faser-Farbstoff-Bindungsstabilität sowie Nassechtheitseigenschaften. Von den bekannten Verfahren werden diese Anforderungen nicht in allen Eigenschaften erfüllt, so dass weiterhin ein Bedarf nach neuen Verfahren für den textilen Tintenstrahldruck besteht. Dokument EP-A-0 655 527 beschreibt Tinten für den Tintenstrahldruck enthaltend einen Dispersionsforbstoff und ein Bisphenol/Ethylenoxid-Addukt als Dispergiermittel.Corresponding inkjet printing processes should in particular have optimal performance properties. Worth mentioning in this context are properties such as viscosity, stability, surface tension and conductivity of the inks used. Furthermore, increased demands are placed on the quality of the prints obtained, e.g. in terms of color strength, fiber-dye binding stability and wet fastness properties.

Bevorzugt werden die Tinten z.B. so hergestellt, dass ein oder mehrere Dispersionsfarbstoffe der Formeln (1) bis (23) mit einem Dispergator/Copolymer/Blockpolymer-Gemisch angerührt und anschliessend in einer Nassmühle bis auf einen definierten Mahlgrad von einer durchschnittlichen Partikelgrösse zwischen 0,2 bis 1,0 µm gemahlen werden. Danach wird das konzentrierte Mahlgut, gegebenenfalls unter Verwendung von z.B. geeigneten Verdickungsmitteln, Dispergatoren, Copolymeren, Tensiden, Feuchthaltemitteln, Redispergiermittel, Sequestriermitteln und/oder Konservierungsmitteln, sowie Wasser, auf die gewünschte Konzentration eingestellt. Zur Entfernung der gegebenenfalls vorhandenen gröberen Anteile kann vorteilhafterweise eine Filtration der fertiggestellten Tinte durch ein Mikrosieb von ca. 1 µm erfolgen.Preferably, the inks are e.g. prepared such that one or more disperse dyes of the formulas (1) to (23) are mixed with a dispersant / copolymer / block polymer mixture and then in a wet mill to a defined freeness of an average particle size between 0.2 to 1.0 microns be ground. Thereafter, the concentrated millbase, optionally using e.g. suitable thickening agents, dispersants, copolymers, surfactants, humectants, redispersing agents, sequestering agents and / or preservatives, and water, adjusted to the desired concentration. In order to remove any coarser components which may be present, it is advantageously possible to filter the finished ink through a microsieve of approximately 1 μm.

Das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zum Bedrucken von textilen Fasermaterialien kann mit an und für sich bekannten für den textilen Druck geeigneten Tintenstrahldruckern ausgeführt werden.The process according to the invention for printing textile fiber materials can be carried out with ink jet printers which are known per se and suitable for textile printing.

Im Falle des Tintenstrahldruck-Verfahrens werden einzelne Tropfen der Tinte kontrolliert aus einer Düse auf das Substrat gespritzt. Überwiegend werden hierzu die kontinuierliche Ink-Jet-Methode sowie die Drop on demand-Methode verwendet. Im Falle der kontinuierlichen Ink-Jet-Methode werden die Tropfen kontinuierlich erzeugt, wobei die nicht für den Druck benötigte Tropfen in einen Auffangbehälter abgeleitet und in der Regel rezykliert werden. Im Falle der Drop on demand-Methode hingegen werden die Tropften nach Wunsch erzeugt und gedruckt, d.h. es werden nur dann Tropfen erzeugt, wenn dies für den Druck erforderlich ist. Die Erzeugung der Tropfen kann z.B. vorteilhafterweise mittels eines Piezo-Inkjet-Kopfes oder mittels thermischer Energie (sog. Bubble Jet) erfolgen. Bevorzugt ist für das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren der Druck nach der kontinuierlichen Ink-Jet-Methode oder der Drop on demand-Methode.In the case of the ink-jet printing method, individual drops of the ink are injected in a controlled manner from a nozzle onto the substrate. For this purpose, the continuous ink-jet method and the drop-on-demand method are predominantly used. In the case of the continuous ink-jet method, the drops are generated continuously, wherein the non-pressure required for the drops are discharged into a collecting container and recycled as a rule. In the case of the drop on demand method, however, the drips are created as desired and printed, ie only drops are produced when required for printing. The generation of the drops can be carried out, for example, advantageously by means of a piezo-inkjet head or by means of thermal energy (so-called bubble jet). For the process according to the invention, printing by the continuous ink-jet method or the drop-on-demand method is preferred.

Das Fasermaterial wird nach dem Bedrucken bei Temperaturen bis 150°C, vorzugsweise 80° bis 120°C getrocknet.The fiber material is dried after printing at temperatures up to 150 ° C, preferably 80 ° to 120 ° C.

Die anschliessende Fixierung des Fasermaterials geschieht im allgemeinen durch Trockenhitze (Thermofixierung) oder überhitzten Wasserdampf unter atmosphärischem Druck (HT-Fixierung). Die Fixierung wird dabei unter folgenden Bedingungen durchgeführt:

  • Thermofixierung: 1 bis 2 Minuten bei 190 bis 230°C.
  • HT-Fixierung: 4 bis 9 Minuten bei 170 bis 190°C
The subsequent fixation of the fiber material is generally done by dry heat (heat setting) or superheated steam under atmospheric pressure (HT fixation). The fixation is carried out under the following conditions:
  • Heat setting: 1 to 2 minutes at 190 to 230 ° C.
  • HT fixation: 4 to 9 minutes at 170 to 190 ° C

Die erfindungsgemäss verwendete Tinte kann auf verschiedenartigen Fasermaterialien, wie Wolle, Seide, Cellulose, Polyvinyl, Polyacrylnitril, Polyamid, Aramid, Polypropylen, Polyester oder Polyurethan appliziert werden.The ink used according to the invention can be applied to various types of fiber materials, such as wool, silk, cellulose, polyvinyl, polyacrylonitrile, polyamide, aramid, polypropylene, polyester or polyurethane.

Bevorzugt sind polyesterhaltige Fasermaterialien.
Als polyesterhaltige Fasermaterialien kommen solche Materialien in Betracht, die ganz oder teilweise aus Polyester bestehen. Beispiele sind Celluloseesterfasern, wie z.B. Cellulose-21/2-acetatfasern und -triacetatfasern, und besonders lineare Polyesterfasem, die gegebenenfalls auch sauer modifiziert sind, welche z.B. durch Kondensation von Terephthalsäure mit Ethylenglykol oder von Isophthalsäure oder Terephthalsäure mit 1,4-Bis(hydroxymethyl) cyclohexan erhalten werden, sowie Fasern aus Mischpolymeren von Terephthal- und Isophthalsäure mit Ethylenglykol. Geeignet sind weiter polyesterhaltige Mischfasermaterialien, d.h. Mischungen aus Polyester und anderen Fasern.
Preference is given to polyester-containing fiber materials.
Suitable polyester-containing fiber materials are those materials which consist wholly or partly of polyester. Examples are Celluloseesterfasern such as cellulose-2 1/2 acetate and triacetate fibers, polyester fibers, and especially linear, optionally also acid-modified which, for example (by condensation of terephthalic acid with ethylene glycol or of isophthalic acid or terephthalic acid with 1,4-bis hydroxymethyl) cyclohexane, as well as fibers of copolymers of terephthalic and isophthalic acid with ethylene glycol. Also suitable are polyester-containing mixed fiber materials, ie mixtures of polyester and other fibers.
