Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a dye scavenging textile material and method for manufacturing thereof.
  • the currently employed methods have the drawback that the formed textile material needs to be treated with the dye scavenging compound, which requires a long and laborious process and specialized equipment. It is an object of the present invention to provide an alternative method for manufacturing a dye scavenging substrate that simplifies existing processes.
  • the inventors of the present invention have found that some or all of the above objects may be achieved by an alternative process in which not the preformed textile material, but rather the fibers from which the textile material is formed are treated with the dye scavenging compounds prior to the formation of the textile material and then combined with untreated fibers to obtain the dye scavenging textile material.
  • the thus obtained materials are more versatile with respect to their properties and show improved dye scavenging capabilities and increased sustainability while retaining good mechanical strength.
  • the present invention thus provides for a dye scavenging textile material, preferably a nonwoven, woven or knitted fabric, a braided rope or ball, comprising
  • the invention also encompasses a method for manufacturing a dye scavenging textile
  • At least one relates to one or more, i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or more. If used in combination with a compound, the term does not relate to the absolute number of molecules but rather to the number of different types of said compound. "At least one dye scavenging compound” thus means that at least one type but that also 2 or more different dye scavenging compound types can be present.
  • Free of or "essentially free of”, as used herein interchangeably in relation to a specific type of component means that the referenced composition does not contain the respective component in deliberately added form. In various embodiments, this means that the respective component is present in concentrations of no more than 1 wt.%, preferably no more than 0.5 wt.%, more preferably no more than 0.1 wt.% of said component relative to the total weight of the composition. Most preferably, said component is not contained at all.
  • Absorbent as used herein in relation to the fibers, means that said fibers can absorb other compounds, in particular the dye scavenging compounds, in liquid form, such as an aqueous solution.
  • the absorbent fibers are preferably cellulosic fibers, i.e. comprise or consist of cellulose.
  • the fibers can be natural or regenerate cellulose-based fibers, such a cotton or rayon, or mixtures of natural and regenerate fibers. Particularly preferred are regenerated cellulose fibers, such as viscose, modal and lyocell or combinations thereof. It is preferred that the fibers used are made from purified cellulose, in particular cellulose that contains less than 10% by weight of other components, such as hemicellulose or lignin. It is preferred that the cellulose from which the fibers are formed is essentially free of hemicellulose and lignin. It is also preferred that the fibers used in the textile materials and methods described herein are not wood pulp. In any case, the fibers used herein are water-insoluble, i.e. they do not dissolve in water under the given conditions, but remain in solid form.
  • regenerate cellulose fibers are well-known in the art and involve the chemical conversion of purified cellulose, for example from wood pulp or other natural sources, into a soluble compound, which is then dissolved and forced through a spinneret to produce filaments which are chemically solidified, resulting in fibers.
  • Suitable lyocell fibers are for example marketed under the Tencel® brand by Lenzing, AT.
  • fibers are preferably cellulose-based, it is similarly possible to use fibers that comprise or consists of cellulose derivatives, such as cellulose ester, in particular cellulose acetate.
  • the fibers particularly applies to the absorbent fibers used for the application of the dye scavenging compounds.
  • the polymeric fibers that are combined with the fibers treated with the dye scavenging compound may be any of the afore-described cellulosic fibers and even may be the same fiber type as the one treated with the dye scavenger, in various embodiments, the untreated polymeric fibers that are combined with the treated polymeric fibers are a different type of fiber.
  • the fibers may be selected from cellulose or synthetic fiber types, such as polyester. Particularly preferred are polyester fibers, such as poly(lactic acid) fibers. However, alternatively also cotton or viscose fibers, such as for example lyocell fibers, may be used.
  • Treated fiber relates to those fibers to which the dye scavenging compounds have been applied, in particular according to the methods described herein.
  • Untreated fiber as used herein, thus relates to those fibers not treated with the dye scavengers. Both are combined in the materials and methods of the invention, as it has surprisingly been found that a combination of such treated and untreated fibers provides for materials with advantageous properties compared to a fabric that has been completely treated with dye scavengers.
  • the absorbent fibers are cellulosic fibers, preferably viscose, and the untreated fibers are non-cellulose polymeric fibers, preferably polyester fibers, more preferably poly(lactic acid) fibers.
  • the treated fibers are preferably used in amounts by weight of 30 to 95 % by weight, preferably 50 to 90% by weight, more preferably 65 to 80 % by weight, such as, for example 70, 75 or 80 % by weight, relative to the total weight of the fibers of which the textile material consists.

Consequently, the textile materials of the present application are strong and robust to be suitable for all washing machine types. Strength and robustness might be defined by the tensile strength. Tensile strength refers to the resilience of the sheet against ripping. The direction of tensile strength can be distinguished between machine direction (MD) and cross direction (CD).
