Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of aminoxide as antistatic agents for reducing the propensity of fabrics to accumulate electrostatic charges.
- Electrostatic charges on fabrics is also undesirable in manufacturing processes of sheets, films, filaments, etc, as the charges tend to cause the articles to cling together or to the processing equipment. Electrostatic charges are particularly dangerous in the manufacturing process of integrated circuits, especially of the MOS-type, as these may be irreversibly damaged by such charges. It is therefore essential that the protective clothing which is worn by the laborers in this branch of industry is treated in such way that accumulation of electrostatic charges is prevented or effectively reduced.
- US-A-4014,800 corresponding to FR-A-2230790 discloses lubricating compositions for fibres for use in the manufacturing and processing of those fibres by such methods as knitting and weaving.
- the lubricant compositions incorporate amine oxides as anti-static agents.
- GB-A-1066763 discloses amine oxides and a number of uses of them including use as softening agents for textiles and as shampoos with anti-static effect.
- US-A-3447956 equivalent to FR-A-1545719 teaches a process of introducing amine oxide, which is dissolved in lower alkanols, into fibrous material and then causing the amine oxide to swell the fibres as a means of strengthening the material.
- the present invention relates to the use of aminoxides for treating fabrics according to claim 1, especially when the fabrics comprise polyester.
- the invention provides a method for reducing the propensity of fabrics to accumulate electrostatic charges according to claim 3.
- the invention provides an aqueous antistatic composition comprising:
- Aminoxides are well-known surfactants having a cationic character at low and neutral pH and a nonionic character at alkaline pH.
- Aminoxides which are advantageously used in the present invention correspond to the general formula: wherein R 1 and R 3 are independently CH 3 or C 2 H 4 OH and R 2 is an alkyl group having 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
- R 2 is an alkyl group having 14 to 16 carbon atoms.
- Such aminoxides are commercially available, for instance from AKZO Chemie under the trade name "Aromox". They are supplied as solutions having an active content of 30 to 40% by weight in water/isopropanol (50/50) or in water.
- the antistatic compositions that are used in the process of the present invention are aqueous compositions comprising 10 to 80% by weight of aminoxide and 2.5 to 20% by weight of a lower alkanol, preferably isopropanol. Preferably they comprise 20 to 40% aminoxide and 5 to 10% isopropanol.
- compositions in which the aminoxide is a mixture of a dimethyl alkyl aminoxide and a bis-(2-hydroxyethyl) alkyl aminoxide, wherein the alkyl groups comprise 12 to 18 carbon atoms, exhibit a more pronounced antistatic effect than compositions which contain either one of these aminoxides alone.
- the antistatic compositions used according to the invention further comprise an anti-foam agent, preferably a silicone oil, in an amount of 0.01 to 1.0 wt%, calculated on the total composition.
- an anti-foam agent preferably a silicone oil
- compositions may be used after or in the rinse cycle of a wash process for the treatment of fabrics in an amount of 1 to 100 g, preferably 3 to 20 g per kg wash load.
- process of the present invention is primarily suitable for industrial applications, such as the industrial cleaning of overalls.
- the anti-static compositions may also be used in the pre-wash cycle of such a fabric washing process.
- the number of fluffs was significantly reduced. This proved to be a significant advantage for the washing of coloured linen for surgery rooms were conventional wash processes inevitably leave a large number of fluffs which have to be removed manually.
- Aromox T/12, DMCD and DM16D contain 40 % by weight of aminoxide in a solvent mixture consisting of 50 % isopropanol and 50 % water.
- Aromox DMMCD-W and DM14D-W contain 30 % by weight of aminoxide in water.
- the surface resistivity of the overalls was then determined by measuring the resistance of the fabric according to British Standard 5958:1980 using a Philips Model 262 resistivity meter. The results are also shown in Table I. In all cases, the chemical damage which the fabrics incurred after several washes was much less than when a conventional quaternary ammonium antistatic composition was used.
- Examples 10 to 21 all illustrate the use aspect of the present invention, Examples 1 to 9 which are not according to the invention illustrating the use of single aminoxides and Examples 10 to 21 illustrating the use of combinations of aminoxides which give rise to synergistic antistatic effects.
- Examples 10 to 13 and 16 to 21 are illustrative of antistatic compositions within the scope of the third, composition, aspect of the invention, the methods of use of these particular compositions being illustrative of methods within the scope of the second, method, aspect of the invention.
- an anti-static composition according to the invention was compared with the effect caused by a conventional anti-static agent of the quaternary ammonium type.
- Samples of three different types of polyester fabrics were soaked for 10 minutes at 40°C and at a liquid to cloth ratio of 20 to 1, using 2 g anti-static agent per litre. Subsequently, the samples were dried for 20 minutes at 60°C. This procedure was repeated 25 times and then the tensile strength of a test cloth having a width of 5 cm was measured (in kg) on a Louis Schopper tensile strength meter Type MT34. The tensile strength is believed to be a good measure of the chemical damage due to the anti-static treatment.
- the results for three different polyester fabrics are shown below.
- Example 22 Polyester Fabric I. Anti-static Agent: None Conventional Example 20 Tensile Strength: in kg/5 cm 140.0 137.2 139.5 % difference 0.0 2.0 0.4 Example 23 - Polyester Fabric II Anti-static Agent: None Conventional Example 20 Tensile Strength: in kg/5 cm 116.5 112.6 113.4 % difference 0.0 3.3 2.7 Example 24 - Polyester Fabric III Anti-static Agent: None Conventional Example 20 Tensile Strength: in kg/5 cm 143.7 140.0 143.6 % difference 0.0 2.6 0.1
- Example 20 leads to less chemical damage on all three different types of polyester fabric then the conventional anti-static agent of the quaternary ammonium type.
