  • ABSTRACT This invention relates to a process for the manufacture of chemically bonded, textile sheet material based on synthetic fibers, in which a polymer material in the form of a solution or dispersion is incorporated in the flexible textile sheet material and the polymer material is then coagulated, which comprises impregnating the textile sheet material containing synthetic fibers with a liquid binder system containing (a) a liquid aqueous dispersion of an elastomer, (b) a liquid aqueous solution of a hydrophilic polymer, and (c) a liquid aqueous emulsion of a long-chain aliphatic monoisocyanate and/or diisocyanate, or an aqueous dispersion of an ethylene imine reaction product of a monoisocyanate and/or a diisocyanate; heating the textile sheet material to the
  • the invention is particularly concerned with a continuous process of this type. Further, the invention relates to a chemically bonded textile sheet material containing synthetic fibers, in particular a fiber fleece, of high water vapor absorption capacity, which is prepared by this process.
  • a process for chemically bonding a fiber fleece is known, by which a dispersion or a solution of synthetic material is incorporated in the fleece and the polymer contained in the dispersion or solution is caused to coagulate. The polymer is deposited in the interior of the fleece, thus bonding the individual fibers of the fleece.
  • the mechanical strength of the fleece may be improved by the chemical binder incorporated therein.
  • a fiber fleece bonded in this manner has a very low water vapor absorption capacity, however.
  • the strength of the fleece is sufficient for use as a base material for the production of synthetic leather, the leather substitute produced from such a material is inferior to natural leather because it has a much lower water vapor absorption than natural leather.
  • the water vapor absorption capacity of natural leather is of particular significance for the comfortable feeling experienced when wearing shoes or garments made of leather or using leather-upholstered articles.
  • the fiber fleeces produced by the known processes are water-repellent, but they do not comply with the requirements as to water vapor absorption capacity made of base materials to be processed into shoe uppers, garments, or upholstery materials.
  • a fleece bonded by another known process with a chemical binder of hydrophilic character has the disadvantage that the binder is deposited in compact form in the interior of the fleece.
  • the hydrophilic character of the chemical binder used the water vapor absorption capacity achievable with such fleeces is insufficient, because the structure of the binder contained in the fleece is free from or poor in capillaries or pores.
  • the present invention provides a process for the manufacture of a chemically bonded textile sheet material which does not have the disadvantages of known processes and enables the manufacture of chemically bonded textile sheet materials based on synthetic fibers which are distinguished by a good water vapor absorption capacity.
  • the textile sheet material containing synthetic fibers is impregnated with a liquid binder containing a. a liquid aqueous dispersion of an elastomer,
  • sufficient heat to reach the coagulation temperature of the elastomer is caused to act upon the textile sheet material.
  • sufficient heat is caused to act upon the impregnated textile sheet material to heat it to a temperature above C, but below the softening temperature of the fibers contained in the textile sheet material.
  • the textile sheet material is treated with a washing liquid, and, as a fifth process step, the textile sheet material is dried by the action of heat.
  • the liquid binder used for bonding the fleece will be designated in the following as a liquid binder system.
  • any aqueous dispersion of an elastomer may be used as the aqueous elastomer dispersion, but those based on polyacrylates or polyvinyls are preferred, particularly copolymers of diene and vinyl monomers.
  • lt is particularly advantageous, however, to use elastomer dispersions the elastomers of which contain reactive groups, such as COOl-l, NH, NH OH or SH groups.
  • Elastomer dispersions containing free COOH groups are of particular advantage. Elastomers of such structure are preferred because these groups enable them to react with the other solid components of the liquid binder system, thus causing the substance bonding the fibers to assume a three-dimensionally cross-linked structure.
  • Synthetic rubber based on a butadiene-acrylonitrile-methacrylic acid copolymer e.g., PERBUNAN 3405, a product of Wegriken Bayer, Leverkusen, Germany, has proved to be a particularly suitable aqueous elastomer dispersion.
  • elastomers means polymers as defined on page 154 of Textbook of Polymer Chemistry by Billmeyer, N.Y., 1967.
  • Suitable hydrophilic components of the liquid binder system are water-soluble polymers, e.g., cellulose derivatives, such as carboxymethyl cellulose or cellulose ethers, or starch; polyvinyl alcohol is particularly advantageous.
  • the hydrophilic component of the liquid binder system is a polymer which possesses a plurality of groups having a hydrophilizing effect.
  • Suitable aqueous isocyanate emulsions are those based on aliphatic monoisocyanates and/or diisocyanates having carbon chains with 14 to 25 carbon atoms, preferably between 16 and 20 carbon atoms. These isocyanates may be branched or straight-chained, and mixtures of branched isocyanates with straight-chained isocyanates may also be used.
  • the ethylene imine isocyanate reaction products (ethylene ureas) are applied in the form of aqueous dispersions. They are prepared by the reaction of the above described aliphatic isocyanates with ethylene imine. When diisocyanates are used, one or two NCO groups react with the ethylene imine.
  • the dispersion may also consist of a mixture of several ethylene imine reaction products of monoisocyanates and/or diisocyanates. It is of particular advantage to use the isocyanates of this type in a dis guised form. Aliphatic isocyanates of this structure are distinguished by the fact that they react very slowly with the dispersing agent, even when they are stored for I a prolonged period of time in the aqueous emulsion.
  • the aliphatic isocyanates or their ethylene imine reaction products form an integral component of the liquid binder system or the complex binder system and are primarily responsible for the softening of the bonded textile sheet material and its hydrophobic properties, suppleness and handling characteristics.
  • the readily water-soluble hydrophilic polymer substance contained in the liquid binder system is of good compatibility with the dispersed elastomer.
  • the watersoluble hydrophilic polymer has a stabilizing effect upon the elastomer dispersion.
  • polyvinyl alcohol is used as the water-soluble hydrophilic polymer, this has an accelerating effect upon the vulcanization of synthetic rubber, which may be of interest when such vulcanization is intended.
  • the elastomer, the watersoluble hydrophilic polymer, and the aliphatic isocyanate are present in such quantities that the entire liquid binder system has a solids content of 30 to 60 percent by weight, preferably between 40 and 50 percent by weight, calculated on the total weight of the liquid binder system.
  • the solids component of the liquid binder system contains 40 to 98 percent by weight, preferably 60 to 90 percent by weight calculated on the total weight of solids of polymer material.
  • Fifty to 98 percent by weight, preferably 60 to 80 percent by weight, of the polymer component of the solids contained in the liquid binder system is elastomer material, whereas the proportion of water-soluble hydrophilic polymer substance is in the range from 1 to 40 percent by weight, preferably 5 to 25 percent by weight.
  • One to 40 percent by weight, particularly 5 to 25 percent by weight, of the weight of the solids component of the liquid binder system is aliphatic monoand/or diisocyanates.
  • the coagulation temperature is the temperature above which coagulation of the dispersed elastomer begins. It is a requirement of the present invention that the coagulation temperature is below that temperature at which chemical reactions take place between the various components of the liquid binder system.
  • chemical binders are chemicals which cause a physical-mechanical bond between the fibers of the fleece.
  • the liquid binder system itself is not capable of bonding the fleece mechanically.
  • the substance capable of mechanically bonding the fleece, which is present in the interior of the fleece after the third process step, will be designated as a Tbinder complex.
  • the binder complex is distinguished from the liquid binder system and the individual solid components thereof, respectively, by the fact that, due to the chemical reactions occurring between the components of the liquid binder system in the course of the present process, the binder complex is substantially insoluble in water.
  • the liquid bindersystem is prepared by mixing an aqueous dispersion of an elastomer with asolids content of 30 to percent by weight, preferably of 40 to 60 percent by weight, calculated on the total weight of the dispersion, with (a) an aqueous solution of a hydrophilic polymer which differs in its chemical structure and its physical properties from the elastomer, the solution having a solids content of 5 to 40 percent by weight, preferably l0 to 20 percent by weight, calculated on the total weight of the solution, and (b) an aqueous emulsion of an aliphatic isocyanate or an aqueous dispersion of a reactive ethyleneimine reaction product of such isocyanate, in which the solids proportion ranges from 10 to percent, preferably from 40 to 60 percent by weight, calculated on the total weight of the emulsion or dispersion, the said dispersion, solution and emulsion, or dispersion, as the case may be, being mixed in such proportions that the resulting liquid
  • the dispersed substance in the emulsion is also regarded as a solid.
  • the heat action by which the binder system is heated to a temperature above C, but below the softening temperature of the fibers of the textile sheet material causes a reaction between the isocyanate, or the reactive ethyleneimine reaction product of the isocyanate, and the hydrophilic water-soluble polymer of the liquid binder system resulting in a reaction product which is insoluble in water and organic solvents.
  • the elastomer contains groups capable of reaction with isocyanate groups
  • the temperature conditions prevailing during this process step cause an additional cross-linking of the isocyanates, and/or the reaction product formed from the isocyanate and the hydrophilic component, with the carboxyl groups which may be present in the polymer chains of the elastomer.
  • the NCO groups of the isocyanate are protected by reaction of'the isocyanates with ethylene imine, phenol, sodium hydrogen sulfite, and the like. Under the influence of heat, the reaction product is split again, and the NCO group is liberated.
  • the disguised isocyanates are also employed in the form of aqueous emulsions and are of good compatibility with the aqueous elastomer dispersions.
  • Textile, sheet-like materials based on synthetic fibers are woven, knitted, or felt-like webs consisting of synthetic fibers.
  • Fiber fleeces, in particular matted fiber fleeces, are preferred, and most of all those containing a proportion of heat-shrinkable synthetic fibers.
  • Needled matted fiber fleeces consisting of or containing synthetic fibers, at least part of which are heatshrinkable, are particularly suitable for performing the process of the invention.
  • Fiber fleeces consisting of mixtures of at least two chemically different synthetic fibers, preferably predominantly of polyester fibers and a smaller proportion of polyamide fibers, are preferred.
  • all the fibers of the same chemical structure may be heat-shrinkable, or heat-shrinkable synthetic fibers may be present together with fibers of the same chemical structure which are not capable of shrinking under the influence of heat.

  • the weight per unit area of suitable fiber fleeces is preferably in the range of 150 to 500 g per square meter. Needled fiber fleeces are advantageously needled at a rate of about 400 stitches per cm
  • the liquid binder system advantageously may contain a vulcanization accelerator, e.g., zinc oxide or sulfur compounds known as vulcanization accelerators, such as VULKACIT a product of Wegriken Bayer, Leverkusen, Germany.
  • a textile sheet material preferably a fiber fleece, and in particular a needled matted fiber fleece, is impregnated by immersion in a trough containing the liquid binder system.
  • the impregnated fleece is then removed from the trough and squeezed out.
  • the impregnated fleece is heated to the coagulation temperature of the elastomer contained in the liquid binder system, but not sufficiently to initiate chemical reactions between the solid components of the liquid binder system or to soften the fibers of the fleece.
  • this heat action is caused by irradiation of the fleece with an infra-red radiator.
  • the coagulation temperature is in the range of to 80C., especially between and 50C.
  • the fleece is introduced into a heating chamber supplied with hot air at a temperature between 100 and 180C.
  • the fleece is heated to a temperature above 100C., but below the softening temperature of the synthetic fibers, preferably to a temperature ranging from 120 to 180C.

Due to the presence of the aqueous dispersion of a long-chain aliphatic isocyanate, preferably stearyl isocyanate, or of monoethylene urea and/or diethylene urea, together with the aqueous solution of the hydrophilic polymer, preferably polyvinyl alcohol or partially saponified polyvinyl acetate, in the liquid binder system, chemical reactions taking place in the course of the third process step cause not only the formation of reaction products of isocyanate and polyvinyl alcohol, but also of reaction products of isocyanate or monoor diethylene urea and carboxyl groups of the above mentioned synthetic rubber which had not been bonded by salt formation during vulcanization of the elastomer. During the latter reaction, CO is liberated. This increases the porosity of the complex binder system within the fleece and removes its tackiness.
  • the carboxyl groups of the synthetic rubber may react with the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol and/or the OH group-containing reaction product of polyvinyl alcohol and isocyanate, with ester formation.
  • This reaction promotes the formation of a three-dimensional network of complex binder within the fleece.
  • polyvinyl alcohol molecules combine into relatively long, waterinsoluble molecule chains and form ethers.
  • This reaction is preferably conducted at a temperature in the range of to C.
  • the water vapor absorption capacity and the degree of hydrophobic property of the fleece can be varied within wide limits, not only by the absolute quantities employed of the chemical substances making up the complex binder system, but also by the quantitative ratio of water-soluble hydrophilic components to hydrophobic components and by the reaction conditions prevailing.
  • the water vapor absorption capacity is increased by adding smaller quantities of stearyl isocyanate or by heating to higher temperatures during the third process step, while at the same time the hydrophobic character of the complex binder system becomes less pronounced.
  • the advance in the art achieved by the process of the invention resides in the fact that the process for bonding the fiber fleece can be performed in a manner which is economical and technically inexpensive, and the fiber fleece bonded in accordance with this process is distinguished favorably from fiber fleeces bonded by conventional methods by its high water vapor absorption in combination with its water-repellent properties.
  • the water vapor absorption capacity of the fiber fleece bonded by the process of the invention may be varied from 1 to percent, depending on the quantities of the different substances contained in the liquid binder system and the reaction conditions prevailing during the third process step.
  • the water vapor absorption is determined as follows: A sample of the fleece of 10 cm length and 5 cm width is conditioned by storing it for 24 hours at a relative humidity of 65 percent and a temperature of C., and then weighed. After weighing, the sample is stored again for 24 hours at a relative humidity of 100 percent and a temperature of C, and then weighed again. The resulting difference in weight is calculated in percent and termed water vapor absorption capacity.
  • a fiber fleece intended for processing into a leather substitute can be given properties by the present invention which displace the characteristics of the leather substitute prepared from this fleece towards those of leather.
  • the fleece produced by the present process is not only water-repellent and simultaneously highly water-vapor absorptive, but it is improved also in other respects.
  • the high-molecular weight hydrophilic compounds added are present in the binder in the swollen state. Under the influece of the heat action following during the third process step, the hydrophilic compounds are deswollen and the water which is evaporated causes thecomplex binder system to assume a highly porous structure.
  • the high gas permeability of the fleece bonded according to the present process is also related to the substantially increased porosity of the complex binder system. As mentioned above, this is of particular importance for the feeling of comfort when wearing shoes and garments made of leather substitutes based on these fleeces.
  • the long-chained fat-like isocyanates or the monoethylene ureas and/or diethylene ureas contained in the complex binder system render the bonded fleece soft and supple.
  • the degree of flexibility can be adjusted by the quantities of these substances employed.
  • the longchained aliphatic isocyanate or the monoethylene and- /or diethylene urea is firmly incorporated in. the complex binder system by chemical reaction, which means that it does not migrate under normal conditions.
  • the process of'the invention produces a complex binder system which has a high degree of cross-linking and is of three-dimensional network structure.
  • the fleece bonded according to the present invention is not tacky, it can be ground without difficulties. The surface thereof does not become sticky or smeary by grinding.
  • a complex binder system is produced in the interior of the fleece which is no longer swellable, or only insignificantly swellable, in water and in organic solvents. This incapability of swelling of the complex binder system within the fleece causes further important effects when a top coating is applied to the fleece containing the complex binder system.
  • the structure of the raw fleece is no longer discernible as surface irregularities of the top coating.
  • the surface irregularities are due to differences in the density of the fleece, i.e., different binder contents in the fleece.
  • a web of synthetic fiber fleece 2 is drawn off of a magazine roll 1 and continuously introduced, over a guide pulley 3, into an open trough 4 filled with a liquid 5 consisting of the liquid binder system, so that it becomes impregnated with the liquid binder system.
  • Numeral 6 designates a supply reservoir for the liquid binder system 5.
  • the impregnated fleece is then withdrawn from the bath and squeezed out by means of a pair of squeeze rolls 7. In this manner, any excess of liquid binder is removed.
  • the impregnated web of fleece is then conducted past a heat radiator 8, e.g., a ceramic infra-red radiator, in such a manner that the radiation acts upon the surface of the web 2.
  • the liquid binder system contained in the interior of the fleece is heated to its coagulation temperature and the elastomer is caused to coagulate.
  • the web 2 then passes a number of further guide rolls 3 and is introduced into a heating chamber 9.
  • Numerals l0 and 1 l designate the inlet and outlet slots of the heating chamber.
  • the heating chamber 9 is heated with hot air fed into the heating chamber through the inlet pipe 12 and leaving it through the outlet pipe 13.
  • the temperature prevailing in the heating chamber initiates the chemical reactions between the solid components of the liquid binder system contained in the fleece. This means that the complex binder system capable of bonding the fleece is formed at this stage of the process.
  • the web After leaving the heating chamber through the outlet slot 11, the web is introduced into a Foulard bath 14.
  • the compartments 16 are filled with a washing liquid 17.
  • the washing liquid within the various compartments has a temperature gradient such that the washing liquid in the first compartment entered by the fleece is hot, whereas the liquid at the discharge end of the Foulard bath is cold.
