Description

United States Patent Ofice 3,817,779 Patented June 18, 1974 U.S. Cl. 1l7136 9 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Normally flammable textiles are rendered flame retardant by the intimate association therewith of a flame retarding amount of a compound of the formula ll (R O)zi (l3HOCC=CH2 Ra Ra wherein R is lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
This is a continuation-in-part of pending application Ser. No. 215,192, filed Jan. 3, 1972.
FIELD OF INVENTION This invention relates to improvements in rendering flame retardant, normally flammable, fabrics such as cellulosic materials, proteinaceous materials and analogous man-made materials by applying thereto a flame retarding amount of a compound of the formula H II (RrOhP 9H0 C ?=CH7 Ra Ra wherein R is lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Many flame retarding agents and methods of application have been developed in attempts to obtain flame retardant textile materials. For example, mixtures of ammonium dihydrogen orthophosphate or boric acid with borax have been used to retard flame in cellulosic materials. Flame retardant textiles have been produced by depositing metal oxides, within or on the fibers of cellulose, by the successive precipitation of ferric oxide and a mixture of tungstic acid and stannic oxide or by successive deposition of antimony trioxide and titanium dioxide. Such processes require plural treatment baths in which strongly acidic solutions are employed. These strongly acidic solutions are both inconvenient to use and pose the problem of possible degradation of the cellulose. Furthermore, the presence of a metal oxide coating, on cellulosic textile materials, creates difiiculties in some subsequent dyeing processes as well as deleteriously affecting the hand of the finished product. One process which involves the use of a single processing bath, consists of padding a dispersion of a chlorinated hydrocarbon and finely divided antimony oxide on a cellulosic fabric. The fabric is thereafter heated to render the finish wash proof. Near the combustion temperature, antimony oxide will react with hydrogen chloride, generated by degradation of the chlorinated hydrocarbon, to form antimony oxychloride which suppresses flame. The combination of a chlorinated hydrocarbon and finely divided antimony oxide are not acceptable finishes for closely woven fabrics because they deleteriously affect the hand of the finished product.
Flame resistance has been imparted to cellulosic materials by esterification of the cellulose with diammonium hydrogen orthophosphate. Products so treated are subjected to metathesis reactions with cations in aqueous solutions during washing, the ammonia cation being displaced by calcium, sodium or magnesim. The flame resistant properties of the diammonium orthophosphate ester of the cellulosic materials are regenerated by reacting the wash product with an ammonium chloride solution.
OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION It is, therefore, a principal object of this invention to provide flame retarding textile fabrics comprising normally flammable cellulosic, proteinaceous or analogous manmade materials.
Another object is to provide a process for treating normally flammable cellulosic, proteinaceous or analogous man-made materials to render them flame retardant.
A particular object is to devise a composition comprising normally flammable cellulosic, proteinaceous or analogous man-made material and an effective flame retarding amount of the compound represented by the formula wherein R R and R are as above described.
These and other objects of the present invention will be obvious from the following description.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In accordance with this invention, a process is provided for imparting flame retardancy to textile materials by incorporating into or on the textile material a flame retardant amount of one or more novel dialkylphosphonoalkyl acrylates and methacrylates of the formula wherein R is lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms and R is hydrogen and lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The compounds useful in this invention are prepared by conventional methods for producing dialkylphosphonoalkyl acrylates or methacrylates which generally comprise the steps of (1) adding a dialkylhydrogen phosphite to an aldehyde to form a crude dialkyl-l-hydroxyalkylphosphonate, followed by (2) reacting the latter intermediate with acrylyl or methacryl chloride in the presence of a hydrogen chloride acceptor such as pyridine or sodium carbonate. U.S. Pat. 3,030,347 describes a process, wherein paraformaldehyde, acetaldehyde or propionaldehyde are utilized to form a crude dialkyl (1) hydroxy phosphonate, followed by (2) reacting the latter intermediate with acrylyl or methacryl chloride.

No. 215,192 of which the present application is a continuation-in-part, describes a process for the preparation of diisopropylphosphonomethyl acrylates or methacrylates by reacting the diisopropyl phosphite with aqueous formaldehyde in the presence of a base and thereafter reacting the product of this step with an alkyl acrylate to prepare the diisopropylphosphonomethyl acrylate or methacrylate.
3 Illustrative examples of compounds useful in the present invention include, but are not limited to, compounds such as:
Diethylphosphonomethyl acrylate CH3 2 O Dl-lsopropylphosphonomethyl acrylate CH CH;
Di-lsopropylphosphonomethyl methacrylate ll (CAHnO) :1I ?HO C-CH=CH3 l-dibutylphosphonoethyl acrylate (C4HnO)zP-CHO%)C=CH2 I hHs CHa l-dlbutylphosphonopropyl methacrylate (C:H50):P OHOCCH=CH:
I cz s l-dlethylphosphonopropyl acrylate The compounds of this invention may be applied to textile materials by conventional finishing techniques such as by thermal or radiation induced pad curing so as to incorporate into the textile a flame retardant amount thereof. The compounds of this invention have advantages over the flame retardant agents of the prior art in that they may be used on a variety of textile materials of different chemical compositions, and they may be applied by a variety of methods. They may be applied to materials in either the fiber or fabric form to give flame retarding materials with minimum detectable physical changes in the quality or hand of the textile material.
Cellulosic textile materials may be made flame retardant by way of a variety of methods. Typically, the cellulose may be treated with aqueous NaOH solutions to produce an anionic cellulosic form which will add to the acrylate of this invention. Theoretically, the reaction is by the addition of the cellulose alkoxide to the unsaturated carbonyl compound of this invention by the following manner.
Cell-OH NaOH cell-0 m H1O II II cal-0 m ongooonomoan H10 II if ceu-ocmnooonomoan Ra Ra Applicant however, does not wish to be bound by this theory, intending to protect the claimed invention in whatever form or by whatever mechanism it takes place.
Generally, when treating cellulosic materials with aqueous NaOH, samples of the material are immersed in a to about 30% by weight NaOH solution for about 1 to about 20 minutes and squeezed to a wet pick up of about 60 to about 80%, based upon the weight of cellulosic material, using a two role laboratory padder at about 60 lbs. per square in gauge pressure. The samples are then dried to about 200 to about 275 Fahrenheit, for about 1 to about 5 minutes in a circulating air oven. The samples are then immersed in an aqueous solution of the flame retardant compound of this invention (20 to 70% by weight) for about 1 to about 20 minutes and squeezed to about 60 to about wet weight pick-up, based upon the weight of textile. The materials are then cured in a circulating air oven at about to about 450 Fahrenheit or preferably from about 275 to about 375 Fahrenheit for about 1 to about 10 minutes to promote reaction. Thereafter the samples are washed in hot water to remove residual unreacted material and dried.
The products may also be grafted to cellulose by way of a free radical source generated on the cellulose back bone by way of electron beam irradiation. Cellulose is known to form stable free radicals under the influence of this type of irradiation.
The materials to be grafted are immersed in a solution of the dialkyl phosphonoalkyl acrylated methylacrylate and squeezed in a two role laboratory padder at about 60 pounds per square inch gauge pressure to a wet weight pickup of about 70 to about 120%. The materials are then passed under an electron beam to give an average dose of 1.66 megarads to induce grafting. The samples are thereafter boiled in water to remove any homopolymer of the acrylate or methacrylate which may have formed and dried. The finished textile product, whether subjected to additional finishing treatments or not, exhibits good flame resistant properties with minimum detectable physical changes in the quality or hand of the textile material.
The flame retardant agents of this invention may be applied to various textiles such as cellulosic materials, proteinaceous materials and blends of cellulosic or proteinaceous materials with polyethylene terephthalate and analogous man made fibers. By cellulosic materials, applicant intends to embrace cotton, rayon, paper, regenerated cellulose and cellulose derivatives which retain a cellulose backbone of at least one hydroxy substituent per repeat ing glucose unit. By proteinaceous material applicant intends to embrace those textile materials comprising the functional groups of proteins such as the various animal wools, hairs and furs. Of special interest is the applicability of fire retardant agents of the instant invention to analogous man made fibers such as blends of cotton and polyethylene terephthalate, in textile fabrics and fibers to provide a uniform, flame retardant finish.
The following examples are presented for purposes of illustration rather than a limitation of the scope of the invention. In each of the examples the process steps were preformed as follows, except where a specific method is otherwise indicated. Padding .was done on a standard two role laboratory padder at a gauge pressure sufiicient to obtain about 100% wet weight pick-up. Drying was done in a standard home type automatic circulating air tumble dryer. Flammability testing was done in accordance with (American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists) Test Method 34-1969, the standard vertical char method. Therein 2% in. x 10 in. fabric test specimens are exposed to a controlled burner flame under controlled conditions for a period of 12.0 seconds and 3.0 seconds. The charred specimens are thereafter subjected to controlled tearing tests, using tabulated weights, and the average tear length is measured as representaing the char length of the flame retardant treated fabric.
The finished samples for testing have a flame retardant add on of about 5 to about 40% by weight preferably from about 10 to about 25% by weight of substrate.
In each of the examples the indication of a char distance for the textile indicates self-extinguishment at that point. For comparison purposes the corresponding nontreated textile would be completely consumed.
