Dyeing process

This invention relates to a dyeing process for textile fibres comprising cellulose or blends of cellulose with polyester fibres. Throughout this specification and the claims thereof such textile fibres are designated "textile fibres as hereinbefore defined".
The invention provides a process for dyeing textile fibres as hereinbefore defined which comprises applying thereto an unsulphonated dyestuff containing a dicarboxylic cyclic anhydride grouping, or a dicarboxylic acid grouping such that cyclic anhydride formation can occur by loss of water therefrom, or a half-ester or half-amide of such a dicarboxylic acid grouping, any carboxylic acid group in the said dyestuff being present in free acid form or in the form of a salt with ammonia or a volatile amine, and heating the textile fibre until fixation of the dyestuff takes place.
The term half-amide includes half-amides derived from ammonia or from amines of the formula --NHR'R" wherein R' is hydrogen or an alkyl, substituted alkyl or aryl group and R" is an alkyl or substituted alkyl group.
Thus the grouping which must be present in the dyestuff to be used in the invention is graphically represented as one of the following alternatives ##EQU1## WHEREIN A represents a molecule of ammonia or a volatile amine particularly an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic amine e.g. methylamine, ethylamine, cyclohexylamine, diethylamine, or triethylamine, R.sub.1 is hydrogen or an alkyl or substituted alkyl group (e.g. of 1 to 5 carbon atoms) or an aryl group and R is hydrogen or an alkyl or substituted alkyl group (e.g. of 1 to 5 carbon atoms).
It will be understood that the two CO groups in each of the above representations must be in such relative positions that anhydride formation is present or is possible. For example the CO groups may be
A. IN ADJACENT POSITIONS ON A CARBOCYCLIC AROMATIC RING E.G. IN ORTHO POSITION ON A BENZENE RING;
B. IN ANHYDRIDE-FORMING POSITIONS ON AN ALKYL CHAIN E.G. THE 1,3- OR PREFERABLY THE 1,2-POSITIONS;
C. POSITIONED ONE ON A CARBOCYCLIC AROMATIC RING AND ONE IN ANHYDRIDE-FORMING POSITION ON A SIDE CHAIN, AS FOR EXAMPLE IN HOMOPHTHALIC ACID.
It will also be understood that more than one of the above groupings may be present and that when such is the case the groupings need not be identical.
Dyestuffs to be used in the process of the invention are more particularly of the azo or anthraquinone series.
Depending upon their solubilities the dyestuffs may be applied to the textile fibre either from solutions or as dispersions.
Thus water-soluble salts (for example salts with ammonia, volatile amines or alkali metals) of the dicarboxylic acids, half-esters or half-amides may be dissolved to form solution dyebaths or padding liquors. When an alkali metal salt is used, then either before or after application to the fibre free carboxylic acid may be liberated by means of mineral or organic acid or a substance which generates an acid on heating, for example ammonium thoocyanate. When a salt with ammonia or a volatile amine is used, then it is not necessary to liberate the free acid.
Alternatively the dyestuffs in free acid or anhydride form may be applied to the textile fibre in the form of fine dispersions in aqueous or organic liquids or mixtures thereof or in the form of solutions in organic liquids.
The dyestuffs may also be applied to the textile fibres as print pastes containing conventional thickening agents e.g. locust bean gum ethers, sodium alginate, gum tragacanth, starch ethers and esters or mixtures of these with stable oil-in-water emulsions.
Print pastes or application liquors may also contain known additives, such as dispersing agents, electrolytes, wetting agents, solubilising assistants, mild oxidising agents, urea or other additives of a type which assist dye fixation.
The heating step of the process is carried out until fixation of the dyestuff on the fibre takes place, by which is meant that at least some of the dyestuff becomes more firmly associated with the fibre through chemical and/or physical interaction, and is therefore more difficult to remove than it is before the heating treatment.
More particularly the dyestuffs may be applied to the textile fibres from an aqueous or non-aqueous liquor or by printing techniques and subsequently baked or steamed, desirably at temperatures above 125.degree.C and preferably at 180.degree. to 210.degree.C.
After carrying out the process of the invention it may be advantageous to treat the textile fibre with a dilute alkali for example 0.05N sodium carbonate in order to remove loose dyestuff from the fibre. Alternatively loose dyestuff may be removed, for example from polyester fiber blended with cellulose, by means of a solvent for the dyestuff such as acetone, at moderate temperatures.
It is probable that the dyestuffs are fixed to cellulose fibres to some extent by chemical reaction with the fibre, possibly by ester links, since the dyestuffs are only partially removed from cellulose by treatment with solvents for the dyes such as boiling pyridine, aqueous pyridine and dimethyl formamide. In this respect the dyestuffs appear to behave in a similar way to known reactive dyestuffs, such as those containing chlorotriazine groupings. However the types of reactive dyestuffs previously known all require the presence of alkali in order that the reaction with the fibre may take place. In the process of the present invention alkali is not required. It is a further advantage of the invention that the dyestuffs used do not undergo irreversible hydrolysis to unreactive compounds either during storage or during the process itself.
It is believed that in the process of the invention cellulose fibre reacts with anhydride dyestuffs which if not originally present are produced thermally from the groupings present in the original dyestuffs.
Polyester fibre does not appear to react with the dyestuff to any significant extent. Anhydride formation, however, improves the dye uptake.
It is a particular merit of the invention that it can be used for the dyeing of cellulose and polyester fibres, in the form of a blend, by the same dyestuff. Hitherto the dyeing of such blends has necessitated the use of mixtures of dyestuffs. No matter whether the two dyestuffs are applied separately or from the same dyebath or padding liquor the processes hitherto used are complex, because different dyeing conditions are required by the fibres. In the present invention the same dyestuff may be used to colour both fibres of the blend from one dyebath, pad liquor or print paste using a simple technique which gives good reproducibility.
We now exemplify some of the types of dyestuff which are to be used in the process of the invention. In this exemplification, for brevity, reference is chiefly made to dicarboxylic acid groupings. It will be understood that in the present invention there may be used the same dyestuffs wherein the dicarboxylic acid groupings are replaced by any of the groupings represented graphically as above.

ALTERNATIVE MANUFACTURE OF AZO DYESTUFFS.
Dyestuffs suitable for use in the invention may also be made from known types of azo dyes by condensation with a compound containing a dicarboxylic acid grouping.
Thus for example azo dyestuffs containing hydroxyl, amino or alkylamino groups may be condensed with an acylating agent containing a dicarboxylic acid grouping, for example with epoxy succinic anhydride or one of the acylating agents indicated in the above sub-paragraph (2) under the heading "Coupling Components".
Alternatively azo dyestuffs containing carboxyl halide groups or "mixed anhydride" groups in which a pendant carboxylic acid group is in anhydride formation with a simple acid such as acetic or benzoic acid, may be condensed with amines listed above as Diazo components (A) or with intermediates such as: ##SPC12##
where X represents OH, NH.sub.2, NH alkyl,
X--CH--COOH where X represents HO, HS, NH.sub.2, NH alkyl.vertline.CH.sub.2 --COOHX--CH--COOH X represents S-alkyl, S-aryl, NH alkyl,.vertline.

ANTHRAQUINONE DYESTUFFS
Anthraquinone dyestuffs suitable for use in the invention are generally obtainable by condensation of known anthraquinone compounds with compounds containing a dicarboxylic acid grouping.
Thus for example anthraquinone compounds containing hydroxyl or amino radicals in pendant groups may be acylated by means of the acylating agents indicated in the above sub-paragraph (2) under the heading "Coupling components". Examples of such anthraquinone compounds are
1-amino-4-hydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenoxy)anthraquinone
1-hydroxy-4-(4-aminophenylamino)anthraquinone
1-amino-4-(phenylamino)-2-hydroxymethyl anthraquinone
The same acylating agents may be used to acylate anthraquinones containing nuclear amino groups, for example all such anthraquinones as are listed in UK Specification No. 1,087,673 from line 5 on page 8 to the first formula on page 12.
Alternatively anthraquinones containing reactive acyl groups may be condensed with the amines listed as diazo components (A) listed above, or with the amino or hydroxyl compounds indicated as intermediates in the above passage headed "Alternative manufacture of azo dyestuffs".
Thus for example 1-amino-4-phenylamino-anthraquinone-2-carboxylchloride may be condensed with 4-aminophthalic acid.
As a further alternative anthraquinones containing reactive halogen atoms or hydoxyl groups may be condensed with nucleophilic compounds containing a dicarboxylic acid grouping, for example with the diazo components (A) listed above or the amino or hydroxyl compounds indicated as intermediates in the above paragraph on "Alternative manufacture of azo dyestuffs".
Thus for example the following compounds may be condensed: ##SPC13##

EXAMPLES
The invention is illustrated but not limited by the following Examples in which all parts and percentages are by weight. The preparation of dyestuffs used in the Examples is described in an Appendix which follows them.
EXAMPLE 1
A piece of woven cotton textile material is dyed using the disodium salt of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4(3,4-dicarboxyphenylazo)-5-pyrazolone (Dyestuff 1) according to Application Method A. The bright yellow dyed fabric so obtained shows excellent fastness to washing. The dye is not extracted by 10 minute successive boilings in dimethyl formamide, pyridine and aqueous pyridine.
EXAMPLE 2
A piece of woven cotton textile material is printed with a milled aqueous dispersion of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4(3,4-dicarboxyphenylazo)-5-pyrazolone (Dyestuff 1) according to Application Method B. The bright yellow dyeing so obtained shows good fastness properties.
In the same way a textile material comprising cotton/polyester blends is dyed. Yellow prints of good heat and wash features are obtained.
EXAMPLE 3
A piece of woven polyester/cotton blend fabric wherein the ratio of polyester to cotton is 67:33 is dyed with Dyestuff 1 according to Application Method C. The bright yellow solid shade dyeing has excellent heat and wash fastness properties.
EXAMPLE 4
0.5 Parts of N-ethyl-N-.beta.-(.alpha.,.beta.-dicarboxyethylthio)ethyl-4-(4-nitrophenylazo)-3-toluidine (Dyestuff 2) is dissolved in 30 parts of water by the addition of 2 parts of 2N sodium hydroxide solution. 0.5 parts of cetyl alcohol/ethylene oxide dispersing agent is added followed by 70 parts of white spirit and the mixture emulsified by a high speed agitator. When finely emulsified the mixture is acidified by the addition of 0.46 parts of maleic acid dissolved in 2 parts of water. The emulsion so obtained has a pH value of 4.61. The emulsion is used to print cotton and polyester/cotton textile materials which are then dried and baked at 200.degree.C for 2 minutes. Loose dye is removed from the fabrics by treating in a bath of 0.5N sodium carbonate for 5-10 minutes at 70.degree.C. On the cotton fabric a brownish red shade having excellent wash fastness is obtained. On the polyester and the polyester/cotton fabrics red shades are obtained which show excellent heat and wash fastness properties.
Similar results are obtained when 20 parts of 10% solution of Manutex F (a sodium alginate) is added to the emulsion prior to printing.
EXAMPLE 5
A milled dispersion of the red dyestuff comprising the anhydride of N,N-diethyl-4(3,4-dicarboxyphenylazo)aniline (Dyestuff 3) is padded onto woven polyester/cotton blend fabric which is dried and then baked at 190.degree.C for 2 minutes. Surface dye is removed by warming to 70.degree.C in a bath containing 0.2% sodium carbonate and 0.2% of a synthetic organic detergent. A bright red shade is obtained which shows good heat and wash fastness properties.
When the above dispersion is applied to polyester fabric from an aqueous bath at 125.degree.C for 1/2 hour a yellow dyeing of the dyestuff N,N-diethyl-4(3,4-dicarboxyphenylazo)aniline is obtained showing that hydrolysis of the anhydride occurs under these aqueous dyeing conditions.
EXAMPLE 6
In place of the dyestuff used in Example 2 there is used N,N-diethyl-4-(3-carboxy-4-carbomethoxyphenylazo)aniline (Dyestuff 4).

A yellow print of good fastness to wet treatments is obtained.
If in place of mercerised cotton the paste is applied to a blend of polyester and cotton, and the same process is used, prints of equally good fastness are obtained.
