Definitions

• This invention relates to the treatment of textile materials and relates more particularly to the treatment of filamentary material with conditioning agents.
• the filamentary material is customarily subjected to various mechanical processes, such as spinning, twisting, coning, pirning, hanking, carding, combing, Weaving, knitting and the like. It is common practice to provide the filamentary material undergoing such mechanical processing with a coating of a conditioning agent in order to render the material amenable to such processing.
• the conditioning agents heretofore employed have not been satisfactory, since they have not been adequately stable to aging, have not adequately eliminated the tendency for the filaments to accumulate static charges, and could not be removed from the filaments, after the mechanical processing, as easily as desired.
• an object of this invention is the provision of an improved conditioning agent for the treatment of filamentary materials having a basis of cellulose acetate or other organic derivative of cellulose which will be free from the foregoing and other disadvantages.
• a further object of this invention is to provide an irnproved conditioning agent for filamentary material having a basis of an organic derivative of cellulose, which conditioning agent has excellent lubricating properties, excellent antistatic properties and very high stability, and which is easily removed from the filamentary material by scouring with water.
• a conditioning composition particularly adapted for the treatment of filaments of cellulose acetate or other organic derivative of cellulose, which composition comprises mineral oil, a bodied sperm oil, a higher fatty phosphate, a tertiary amine and a nonionic surface active agent.
• the mineral oil used in the conditioning agent of this invention is desirably a white mineral oil having a paraffinie or naphthenic base and having a viscosity of about 40 to 100 seconds. This viscosity and those given here inafter are measured in the Saybolt Universal viscosimeter at 100 F.
• the bodied sperm oil used inthe composition of this invention is a liquid prepared by blowing sperm oil at an elevated temperature with air until the viscosity of the oil is increased, preferably to a viscosity of about 200 to 600.
• sperm oil is a partially unsaturated ester of a higher fatty acid with a higher fatty alcohol.
• the higher fatty phosphate employed in the conditioning liquid of this invention is a partial ester of phosphoric acid and a long chain aliphatic alcohol or mixture of such alcohols, the average number of carbon atoms in the alcohol being at least about 8, e. g. from 8 to 18, preferably about 10 to 13. In this partial ester there are, on the average, about 1 to 2, preferably about 1.5 to 2, higher fatty alcohol radicals per phosphorus atom.
• the partial ester may be made from a single alcohol, e. g. n-decanol, or from a blend of alcohols containing not more than of any one single alcohol.
• the blend of alcohols may comprise such alcohols as n-octyl alcohol, 2- ethyl hexanol, octanol-2, diisobutyl carbinol, 3,5,5,-trimethyl hexanol, n-decanol, Z-n-butyl hexanol-l, Z-ethyl octanol-l, 2-n-butyl octanol-l, n-lauryl alcohol, unidecanols and trideconals.
• this blend should contain at least one branch chain alcohol, with the branch chain alcohols constituting at least 25% of the weight of the blend and preferably 50%.
• the higher fatty phosphate is prepared in mineral oil, as by reacting the long chain aliphatic alcohol or blend of alcohols with a dispersion of an ester-forming phosphorus compound, e. g. phosphorus pentoxide, in mineral oil.
• an ester-forming phosphorus compound e. g. phosphorus pentoxide
• the tertiary amine employed in the composition of this invention is basic and forms a salt with the acidic partial higher fatty phosphate.
• This amine preferably contains a hydroxyl group, e. g. dibutyl ethanolamine, triethanolamine, diethyl ethanolamine or diethanolamine.
• Other amines such as dicyclohexylamine or morpholine, may also be used, if desired. Best results have been obtained with dibutyl ethanolamine, whose salts with the partial higher fatty phosphate are highly compatible in the composition.
• dibutyl ethanolamine when dibutyl ethanolamine is employed the viscosity characteristics of the composition are superior. Thus, the viscosity of the composition is considerably lower and the temperature at which the mixture becomes cloudy on cooling is also lower when the amine used is dibutyl ethanolamine.
• the nonionic surface active agent employed in the composition of this invention comprises a polyalkylene oxide radical attached to a higher fatty radical.
• a polyalkylene oxide radical attached to a higher fatty radical.
• polyalkylene oxide derivatives i. e. esters, ethers and N-substituted amides
• long chain fatty materials such as the polyalkylene oxide derivatives of long chain fatty acids, fatty alcohols and fatty acid amides.
• These polyalkylene oxide derivatives act as blending agents to improve the compatibility of the amine-phosphate salt with the mineral oil.
• the polyalkylene oxide derivatives may be prepared by reacting the long chain fatty material with ethylene oxide or other alkylene oxide or with a polyalkylene glycol, such as polyethylene glycol. In the latter case, i. e. when a polyalkylene glycol is used as a reactant, the unreacted glycol should be removed from the reaction products, as by washing the products with brine or the like.
• the length of the polyalkylene oxide chain of the reaction product may be varied over a considerable range, satisfactory results having been obtained with chain lengths of from about 2 to 10 lower alkylene oxide units.
• the long chain fatty materials should contain from about 12 to 18 carbon atoms, which carbon atoms may be in a straight chain or in a branched chain.
• Suitable long chain fatty alcohols are, for example, oleyl alcohol, lauryl alcohol and mixed sperm oil alcohols.
• Suitable long chain fatty acids are, for example, lauric acid, oleic acid and coconut oil acids.
• Suitable long chain amides are, for example, oleylamide and lauramide. Best results are obtained by using a mixture of the nonionic surface active agents, such as a blend of polyethylene oxide derivatives of long chain alcohols and acids.
• the proportions of the ingredients of the composition of this invention are advantageously within the following ranges: mineral oil, about 35 to 55%, preferably 40 to 45%; higher fatty phosphate, about 5 to 30%, preferably 9 to 20%; bodied sperm oil, aboutS to 45%, preferably 15 to 30%; tertiary amine, about 5 to 20%, preferably 7 to 17% nonionic surface active agent, about 10 to 25%, preferably 12 to 20%.
• the tertiary amine is desirably presentin. a quantitywhich is at'least high enough to neutralize said higher fatty phosphate. For best resuits the amount of the amine is suchtlrat when 2 parts of the composition of this invention. are dispersed in 98 partsof water the pH of the resulting dispersion is 7.0
• composition is preferably prepared by adding all of'theother ingredients to the mineral oil, the tertiaryamine being added last.
• the viscosity of the conditioning'composition of this invention may be, varied, .las desired depending to some extent on the manner in'which the. composition is to 'be applied to the filaments of cellulose acetate or other organic derivative of cellulose.
• best 4 oil known as Polysperm'300 and having a viscosity or about 300 seconds;
• the viscosity of the composition can be higher, i. e. from about 200 to 400-seconds or higher. This increase in viscosity may be effected by the use in the composition of a more viscous, less volatile mineraloil, e. g. a mineral oil having a viscosity of 55 to 75 seconds.
• a more viscous, less volatile mineraloil e. g. a mineral oil having a viscosity of 55 to 75 seconds.
• the viscosity of the aqueous emulsion is generally much lower than that of the conditioning composition contained therein, since the emulsion generally contains only a minor proportion of the conditioning composition.
• the emulsion may "contain up to about 30%, preferably. about 15 to by weight of the composition of this invention, and'have a viscosity of about 50 seconds or less, e.
• the aqueous emulsion may be prepared by simply mixing and agitating the condition ing composition with the desired amount of water.
• the conditioning composition of this invention may be applied to continuous filaments as they emerge, in the form of la yarn, from the spinning cabinet or metier in which they are formed. Similarly, it may be applied to a tow, or relatively thick bundle, of continuous filaments before said bundle is severed into staple fibers of the desired length, or it may be applied to the staple fibers themselves at any desired stage in the processing of said staple fibers. Generally, the amount of the cornposition applied to the filamentary material is about 2 to 4%, based on the weight of said filamentary material.
• the conditioning compositions of this invention when compared with the conditioning compositions which the prior art customarily uses for the same purpose, show superior stability to aging and oxidation; show smaller change in viscosity when the amount of moisture in the composition is varied; are more easily removed by scouring in Water; show higher antistatic activity; are lighter in color and darken less on aging.
• the compositions of this invention have excellent lubricating properties; are
