Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for dyeing wool or wool-containing materials with the aid of a levelling agent to obtain uniform dyeings.
- Levelling agents or assistants are generally surface-active textile dyeing auxiliaries which have the task of thoroughly wetting the fibre/fibre blend to be dyed, of promoting penetration of the fibres and of preventing too rapid uptake of the dyes, which can lead to unlevelness (spottiness), during the dyeing operation.
- Suitable levelling assistants include oleylsulphonates, fatty alcohol sulphonates, various fatty acid condensation products, alkyl and alkylaryl polyglycol ethers and surface-active chemicals in general.
- Levelling assistants reduce mainly the rate of dyeing, increase the rate of dye migration within the fibre and improve the compatibility of the dyes.
- Levelling agents can also have other effects which have no direct influence on the dye-fibre interactions, but nevertheless exert a positive effect on the dyeing. These include the improved solubility or the dispersion stability of the dye.
- Levelling assistants can exert two or more of the abovementioned effects at the same time.
- Levelling assistants can be divided into two groups, those which have an affinity for the fibre and those which have an affinity for the dye.
- Levelling assistants with an affinity for dyes form an addition compound with the dye whose stability is concentration dependent and normally decreases with increasing temperature.
- the dye distribution equilibrium between the dye in solution and the dye in the fibre is therefore shifted to the dye in solution.
- the increased dye concentration in the dye solution makes it possible for regions of the fabric which were dyed in a non-level manner to level out as a result of dye migration.
- Effective levelling assistants have an affinity for the dye that is sufficient to reduce the absorption rate or to speed the migration rate. Differences in the absorption behaviour of different dyes can likewise be levelled, so that the dyes in a dye mixture can go on at a uniform rate.
- Assistants with an affinity for dyes can also be used to level previously dyed materials. Assistants with an affinity for fibres go onto the fibre in competition with the dye. This competition reaction reduces the absorption rate and promotes the migration rate.
- Important dye-affinity levelling assistant types for wool are nonionic surfactants or weakly cationic, ethoxylated compounds.
- Important fibre-affinity levelling assistant types for wool are anionic compounds.
- Levelling assistants used for wool are frequently ethoxylated amine compounds, partially quatemized, as disclosed for example in DE-A-28 41 800 .

- the active substance is a compound of formula (II) where

- concentration of active substance in the aqueous solution is in the range from 25% to 35% by weight and when 0.1% to 5% by weight of foam-suppressing substances are included as further additives.
- the dyeing is usually carried out at a pH in the range from 2 to 9, preferably in the range from 3 to 8, and especially in the range from 4 to 7.
- the liquor ratio is in the range from 2:1 to 80:1 in the case of a batch dyeing, preferably in the range from 5:1 to 30:1, and in the range from 5:1 to 500:1 in the case of a continuous dyeing, preferably in the range from 20:1 to 300:1.
- X- represents a customary inorganic or organic anion such as halides (chloride, bromide, iodide), sulphate, methosulphate, phosphate or acetate. Chloride is preferred.
- the present active substance is known (CAS No. 747377-35-1 and 133189-76-1) and is simple to prepare by alkoxylation of the corresponding fatty amine.
- the alkoxylation can also be carried out with propylene oxide instead of ethylene oxide or ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, randomly or as a block, but ethoxylated amines give better results.
- the alkoxylate obtained could be completely or partially sulphonated or sulphated, although here too the non-sulphonated and non-sulphated species demonstrate better efficacy.
- the active substance contains in general 15 to 30 ethylene oxide (EO) units, preferably 17 to 19 EO.
- the active substance is particularly preferably an oleylamine with 17 to 19 EO, which was quatemized with 1 EO and contains chloride as counter-ion.
- foam-suppressing substances can be used such as biocides, if desired or necessary dispersing assistants or wetting agents, for example sulphonated or sulphated alkyl, alkenyl or aryl polyglycol ethers, sulphonated or sulphated alkyl, alkenyl or aryl amine polyglycol ethers, and if desired or necessary defoamers based on silicone oil or mineral oil. It is preferable to use 2-ethylhexylisononanamide as foam-suppressing substance and a C 12-15 -alcohol with 8 ethylene oxide and 4 propylene oxide units as wetting component with an additional foam-suppressing effect.

Abstract
Description
- This invention relates to a process for dyeing wool or wool-containing materials with the aid of a levelling agent to obtain uniform dyeings.
- Levelling agents or assistants are generally surface-active textile dyeing auxiliaries which have the task of thoroughly wetting the fibre/fibre blend to be dyed, of promoting penetration of the fibres and of preventing too rapid uptake of the dyes, which can lead to unlevelness (spottiness), during the dyeing operation. Suitable levelling assistants include oleylsulphonates, fatty alcohol sulphonates, various fatty acid condensation products, alkyl and alkylaryl polyglycol ethers and surface-active chemicals in general.
- Unlevelness is caused by:
- High and varying substantivity of the dye on the fibre
- High and varying affinity of the fibre for the dye
- Uneven distribution of the dye solution on the fibre
- Temperature differences on the fibre
- Insufficient levelness can be prevented by means of suitable dyeing techniques (including improving the diffusion of the solution within the fabric, pH control) and by means of levelling assistants.
- Levelling assistants reduce mainly the rate of dyeing, increase the rate of dye migration within the fibre and improve the compatibility of the dyes.
- Levelling agents can also have other effects which have no direct influence on the dye-fibre interactions, but nevertheless exert a positive effect on the dyeing. These include the improved solubility or the dispersion stability of the dye.
- Levelling assistants can exert two or more of the abovementioned effects at the same time.
- Levelling assistants can be divided into two groups, those which have an affinity for the fibre and those which have an affinity for the dye.
- Levelling assistants with an affinity for dyes form an addition compound with the dye whose stability is concentration dependent and normally decreases with increasing temperature.
- The dye distribution equilibrium between the dye in solution and the dye in the fibre is therefore shifted to the dye in solution. The increased dye concentration in the dye solution makes it possible for regions of the fabric which were dyed in a non-level manner to level out as a result of dye migration.
- Effective levelling assistants have an affinity for the dye that is sufficient to reduce the absorption rate or to speed the migration rate. Differences in the absorption behaviour of different dyes can likewise be levelled, so that the dyes in a dye mixture can go on at a uniform rate.
- Assistants with an affinity for dyes can also be used to level previously dyed materials. Assistants with an affinity for fibres go onto the fibre in competition with the dye. This competition reaction reduces the absorption rate and promotes the migration rate.
- Important dye-affinity levelling assistant types for wool are nonionic surfactants or weakly cationic, ethoxylated compounds.
- Important fibre-affinity levelling assistant types for wool are anionic compounds.
- Levelling assistants used for wool are frequently ethoxylated amine compounds, partially quatemized, as disclosed for example in
DE-A-28 41 800 . - Yet there still continues to be a need for even more effective levelling agents.
- It has now been found that, surprisingly, quite specific quatemized and ethoxylated amine compounds based on unsaturated fatty acids are very useful as levelling agents for wool.

-
- (n+m)
- has an average value in the range from 17 to 19.
- Advantageously, the active substance is used as an aqueous solution wherein the concentration of active substance is in the range from 15% to 35% by weight.
- It is particularly advantageous when the concentration of active substance in the aqueous solution is in the range from 25% to 35% by weight and when 0.1% to 5% by weight of foam-suppressing substances are included as further additives.
- Depending on the dye, the dyeing is usually carried out at a pH in the range from 2 to 9, preferably in the range from 3 to 8, and especially in the range from 4 to 7.
- It is further advantageous when the liquor ratio is in the range from 2:1 to 80:1 in the case of a batch dyeing, preferably in the range from 5:1 to 30:1, and in the range from 5:1 to 500:1 in the case of a continuous dyeing, preferably in the range from 20:1 to 300:1.
- X- represents a customary inorganic or organic anion such as halides (chloride, bromide, iodide), sulphate, methosulphate, phosphate or acetate. Chloride is preferred.
- The present active substance is known (CAS No. 747377-35-1 and 133189-76-1) and is simple to prepare by alkoxylation of the corresponding fatty amine. The alkoxylation can also be carried out with propylene oxide instead of ethylene oxide or ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, randomly or as a block, but ethoxylated amines give better results. Furthermore, the alkoxylate obtained could be completely or partially sulphonated or sulphated, although here too the non-sulphonated and non-sulphated species demonstrate better efficacy.

The active substance is particularly preferably an oleylamine with 17 to 19 EO, which was quatemized with 1 EO and contains chloride as counter-ion.
- As well as the foam-suppressing substances mentioned, further additives can be used such as biocides, if desired or necessary dispersing assistants or wetting agents, for example sulphonated or sulphated alkyl, alkenyl or aryl polyglycol ethers, sulphonated or sulphated alkyl, alkenyl or aryl amine polyglycol ethers, and if desired or necessary defoamers based on silicone oil or mineral oil. It is preferable to use 2-ethylhexylisononanamide as foam-suppressing substance and a C12-15-alcohol with 8 ethylene oxide and 4 propylene oxide units as wetting component with an additional foam-suppressing effect.
- The present levelling agent is not only advantageous in relation to the reactive dyes used in the examples which follow, but also displays good efficacy in relation to the dyeing of wool with acid dyes.
- The examples which follow illustrate the invention. Unless otherwise stated, parts and % are by weight.
- Some test methods well known to one skilled in this art will now be described.
- The volume of foam is measured after a certain amount of liquid has been poured from a certain height, instantly and also after a one minute wait.
- A 1000 ml graduated cylinder 60 mm in internal diameter and 430 mm in internal height is used. The test liquid is allowed to pour out from a 2 1 separating funnel through a capillary 70 mm in length and 2 mm in internal diameter from a height of 600 mm, measured from the outlet of the capillary above the floor of the cylinder.
- 500 ml of the solution to be tested are filled into the separating funnel and allowed to flow out into the graduated cylinder at the capillary-controlled efflux rate of about 0.17 l/min. As soon as the entire solution has flowed out, a stop watch is started and the entire volume (foam volume plus solution volume) is read off the cylinder scale. The reading is repeated after one minute.
- The alkaline foam performance is tested using a surfactant concentration of 2 g/l in 2° Bé-NaOH solution in demineralized water, with 2° Bé-NaOH being equivalent to 12 g/l NaOH solid or 30 ml/l of 36°Bé NaOH. The test temperature is in the range from 20 to 25°C.
-
- Material:
- 1 tall graduated cylinder, peristaltic pump, rubber hose, 2 glass tubes, 1 long one reaching from I cm above the floor to the end of the cylinder and which is connected by a rubber hose, which leads through the pump, to a short, second glass tube situated at the level of a typical Ross Miles apparatus.
- Concentration:
- 2g/l surfactant test solution in neutral or alkaline medium
- Procedure:
- 1.00 g of surfactant is dissolved at room temperature (always exactly the same) in exactly 500 ml of deionized water and stirred until a homogeneous solution or mixture is obtained. This mixture is carefully introduced into the 1 1 graduated cylinder (previously washed out with deionized water), so that no foam is formed. A glass tube transports the solution from the floor (1 cm above) of the cylinder through a rubber hose by means of a peristaltic pump to the second glass tube, where the solution falls into the cylinder. The solution is continuously recirculated at 180 ml/min. The foam height after 1 minute, 5 minutes and 10 minutes is noted. The pump is stopped after 10 minutes. The foam height 1 minute after the pump has been switched off is noted as well.
