Auch bei Verwendung der Verbindung (200) wurde bei allen 3 Mustern eine gute bis sehr gute Nachstabilisierung gegen einen Licht-/Hitzeabbau der Faser erhalten.Even when compound (200) was used, good to very good post-stabilization against light / heat degradation of the fiber was obtained in all 3 samples.

Die Behandlung erfolgt wie in Beispiel 1 vermerkt.The treatment is carried out as noted in Example 1.

In beiden Fällen resultieren Aufhellungen mit einem guten Weissgrad. Unterwirft man die Muster I und II einer Belichtung, z.B. einer Belichtung nach DIN 75 202 (Entwurf 1/88), so genügen bei Muster I bereits 20 Stunden Belichtungszeit, um zu einem völlig zerstörten Textilmaterial zu gelangen. Das stabilisierte Muster II ist dagegen nach einer (Heiss-)Belichtungszeit von 144 Stunden noch intakt und hoch reissfest.In both cases, brightening results with a good degree of whiteness. Submitting patterns I and II to exposure, e.g. an exposure according to DIN 75 202 (draft 1/88), 20 hours exposure time is sufficient for pattern I to get to a completely destroyed textile material. The stabilized pattern II, on the other hand, is still intact and highly tear-resistant after a (hot) exposure time of 144 hours.

In beiden Fällen resultieren Aufhellungen mit einem sehr guten Weissgrad. Unterwirft man die Muster 1a, 1b, 2a und 2b einer Belichtung von 350 Stunden nach SN-ISO 105-BO2 (Xenontest) und von 72 Stunden nach DIN 75 202 (Entwurf 1/88; Fakratest), so weisen die Muster 1a und 2a eine geringe bzw. keine, die Muster 1b und 2b dagegen eine gute mechanische Festigkeit auf.In both cases, brightening results with a very good degree of whiteness. If samples 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b are subjected to an exposure of 350 hours according to SN-ISO 105-BO2 (xenon test) and of 72 hours according to DIN 75 202 (draft 1/88; fakate test), samples 1a and 2a show little or no, samples 1b and 2b, on the other hand, have good mechanical strength.

Beispiel 5: Man verfährt wie in Beispiel 4 angegeben mit dem Unterschied, dass statt Verbindung (100) 1 Gew.% bezogen auf das Gewebe, als 50%ige Emulsion, der Verbindung (200) eingesetzt wird. EXAMPLE 5 The procedure is as indicated in Example 4, with the difference that instead of compound (100), 1% by weight, based on the fabric, as a 50% emulsion of compound (200) is used.

Es resultieren auch hier 4 Aufhellungen mit hohem Weissgrad. Das aufgehellte Fasermaterial der Muster 1a und 2a sind ebenfalls nur mangelhaft licht- und wärmestabil, während das Fasermaterial der Muster 1b und 2b eine 72stündige Heissbelichtung nach DIN 75.202 (Entwurf 1/88) unzerstört überstehen.Here too there are 4 brightenings with a high degree of whiteness. The lightened fiber material of samples 1a and 2a are also poorly stable to light and heat, while the fiber material of samples 1b and 2b survive a 72-hour hot exposure according to DIN 75.202 (draft 1/88) without being destroyed.

Beispiele 6-8: Man geht wie in Beispiel 4 beschrieben vor, verwendet jedoch als Aufheller die Verbindung der Formel

Figure imgb0014

Es werden Aufhellungen mit einem ähnlichen Weissgrad, wie in Beispiel 4 beschrieben, erhalten. Das aufgehellte Gewebe ist jedoch erst nach der Stabilisierung mit der Verbindung der Formel (200) lichtstabil, d.h. nach dem Belichten noch mechanisch belastbar. Examples 6-8: The procedure is as described in Example 4, but the brightener used is the compound of the formula
Figure imgb0014

Brightenings with a similar degree of whiteness as described in Example 4 are obtained. However, the lightened tissue is only light-stable after stabilization with the compound of the formula (200), ie it can still be subjected to mechanical stress after exposure.

Beispiele 9-11: Drei Muster à 10 g eines ®Maraklon-Gewebes werden bei einem Flottenverhältnis von 1:20 in einem Bad behandelt, das pro Liter
0,5 g eines nichtionogenen Tensides,
1,0 g Ammoniumsulfat
sowie 1 % folgender Verbindungen in formulierter Form enthält:

Figure imgb0015
Figure imgb0016

(Die Verbindungen (403) und (404) liegen in 20%iger gemahlener Form, die Verbindung (405) dagegen als emulgierbare Flüssigformulierung vor wie sie bei Verbindung (200) beschrieben ist). Examples 9-11: Three 10 g samples of a ®Maraklon fabric are treated at a liquor ratio of 1:20 in a bath, that per liter
0.5 g of a nonionic surfactant,
1.0 g ammonium sulfate
and 1% of the following compounds in formulated form:
Figure imgb0015
Figure imgb0016

(Compounds (403) and (404) are in 20% ground form, while compound (405) is in the form of an emulsifiable liquid formulation as described for compound (200).

In einem Färbeapparat (z.B. ®AHIBA-Färbegerät) geht man bei 50°C mit dem Gewebe ein, erhöht die Temperatur innerhalb 30 Minuten auf 90°C und behandelt 30 Minuten bei dieser Temperatur. Danach wird das Bad auf 60°C abgekühlt und das behandelte Gewebe warm und kalt gespühlt und getrocknet.In a dyeing machine (e.g. ®AHIBA dyeing machine), the tissue is mixed in at 50 ° C, the temperature is raised to 90 ° C within 30 minutes and treated at this temperature for 30 minutes. The bath is then cooled to 60 ° C. and the treated fabric is rinsed warm and cold and dried.

Unterwirft man das Ausgangsmaterial und die so behandelten Muster 144 Stunden lang dem Heissbelichtungstest nach DIN 75.202 (Fakratest), so ist das behandelte Gewebe noch völlig intakt, während das unbehandelte beim Berühren zerfällt.If the starting material and the samples treated in this way are subjected to the hot exposure test according to DIN 75.202 (fakratest) for 144 hours, the treated fabric is still completely intact, while the untreated one disintegrates when touched.
