3,434,795 Patented Mar. 25, 1969 Int. Cl. D06m 3/02 US. Cl. 8l27.6 6 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention relates to the Wet processing of wool and other hair fibers in the presence of an hydroxylamine salt of a strong mineral acid, for the purpose of eliminating the natural yellowish cast characteristic of such fibers which often become more pronounced in high temperature dyeing procedures and in processing such fibers under alkaline conditions.
This invention relates to' methods of processing wool and other hair fibers and to hair fibers treated by such methods. The invention is particularly concerned with the wet processing of hair fibers.
It is 'a matter of general knowledge that all hair fibers, whether their origin be sheep, camels, goats or other animals, possess to a greater or lesser extent a yellowish cast or ,colo'ration when they are removed from the body of the animal and initially processed. This yellowish cast becomes more pronounced during high temperature dyeing procedures, particularly when the dyeing temperatures are in the range of 200 F. to 212 F. Yellowing also increases when the hair fibers are subjected to alkaline processing, particularly when the processing takes place at temperatures above 190 F.
Conventional reducing agents, such as sodium bisulfite, sodium or zinc formaldehyde sulfoxylate, or sodium or zinc hydrosulfite, lighten the wool, but this effect is only temporary; furthermore, these reducing agents react with Wool dyes and strip them from the fibers.
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for wet processing of wool and other hair fibers in which the effect of overcoming the yellowish cast will be durable and which will not afiect disadvantageously the hand orctzharacter of the wool.
Anotherfobject is to provide a wet processing system for treating wool and other hair fibers wherein the tendency of "the yellowish cast or coloration to increase will be eliminated entirely and on the contrary the fibers will be lightened and brightened.
Other objects of the present invention will become apparent in the course of the following specification.
The present invention is based to a substantial extent on the surprising discovery that a hydroxylamine salt of a strong acid such as the sulfate or chloride, is most effective for this purpose.
Extensive experimentation has shown that hydroxylamine salts of strong acids while being definitely reducing agents, 'act differently from other conventional reducing agents when applied to animal fibers, such as wool. Hydroxylamine salts were found to have the unique property of lightening and brightening wool and other hair fibers without destroying the dyes. The effect produced is durable and long lasting. Apparently this is caused by the fact that these compounds act only on the wool substrata.
According to the present invention the preferred salts are mineral acid salts of hydroxylamine, such as the sulfate and the chloride.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention the salt used is hydroxylamine sulfate which is available com mercially in highly concentrated form, namely, in to 97% concentration with two mols of hydroxylamine combined with one mol of sulfuric acid.
It was found that hydroxylamine salts may be used in the dye bath together with wool dyes and that one operation is sufficient to accomplish the brightening or whitening of the wool, as well as the dyeing.
This contrasts remarkably with prior art procedures for obtaining bright pale shades of wool in which wool had to be bleached with hydrogen peroxide in a separate oper= ation before dyeing. This operation is not only costly but also has a tendency to damage the wool since it is carried out in an alkaline medium.
According to the present invention the concentration in the bath may vary from 0.015% to0.5% and the processing may take place at a pH of 2.0 to 7.0.
According to a preferred embodiment hydroxylamine sulfate is used in the amount of from'0.015% to 0.1% of bath volume and at a pH of 3.5 to 4.5.
The use of hydroxylamine sulfate and other mineral acid salts in the dye bath improves the light fastness of the dyed wool.
This treatment minimizes the tendency of the dyed shade to change toward red, commonly referred to as red fade, when exposed to sunlight or in the Fade-o-meter.
There is, however, a disadvantage in the use of a hydroxylamine salt in the dye bath, in that there is a tend= ency toward unlevel shades when dyeing pale shades (0.1%-0.25% OWF) with milling or neutral premetallized dyes. These dyes usually have a high rate' of ex 7 haustion at a low pH in the range of 3.05.0, which is the range usually encountered when hydroxylamine salts are present in the bath. Furthermore, hydroxylamine salts of strong acids are quite corrosive to'ordinary steel dyeing kettles and storage containers.
To overcome this corrosive effect it has been found that small amounts of ammonium, sodium "and potassium salts of phosphoric acid are very useful in inhibiting corrosion effects resulting from the use of hydroxylamine salts even though the pH of the treating bath be as low as 3.0. These phosphate salts also act as buffers in acid media and. fur= thermore provide level dyeings even in pale shades.
Also it has been found that the use of ammonium silico-= fluoride or other water soluble silicofiuerides in combina= tion with the hydroxylamine salts, enhance the brighten= ing elfect on wool or other hair fibers in the dyeing process.
In general, sodium sulfate, sulfuric acid, a silicofluoride and a phosphate may be added to the hydroxylamine for the processing operation.
The following examples are given solely by way of illustration and not by way of limitation.
Throughout the following examples the percentages of chemicals and dyes used in the dye bath are based on the weight of the fiber.
