Nitrogen-containing surface-active agents

Abstract
The invention relates to mixtures of nitrogen-containing surface-active agents which are obtained by esterification of oxyalkylates based on modified or nonmodified naturally occurring resin acids or resin amines or resin alcohols derived therefrom with dicarboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof and subsequent reaction with alkylenediamines or alkylenepolyamines. These nitrogen-containing surface-active agents are suitable as coupling auxiliaries, emulsifiers, dispersing agents, preparation agents for solids dispersions, corrosion protection and metal-working agents and as wetting agents and dyeing auxiliaries.
Description

The invention relates to novel surface-active substances, a process for their preparation and their use.
Nonionic, anionic and also cationic surfactants are often used in the production of preparations of coloring agents, in particular pigments, for use in aqueous and organic media. Because of their surface-active properties, such surfactants have a great influence on the coloristic properties of the coloring agents in the various use media, especially in the printing sector. Surfactants are usually also used to achieve a better course of the coupling reaction in the production of azo pigments and soluble azo dyestuffs and for obtaining preparations of the coloring agents. The constantly increasing requirements imposed on the coloristic and rheological properties of the azo pigments necessitates, especially in the field of printing inks, targeted development of preparation agents which improve the flow properties of printing inks.
Esterification products of resin acids and modified resin acids with polyalcohols, for example glycerol, pentaerythritol and sorbitol, are used, for example, in the production of printing inks (Ullmann's Encyklopadie der technischen Chemie (Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry), 3rd Edition, Volume 8, page 412 and J. Scheiber, Chemie und Technologie der kunstlichen Harze (Chemistry and Technology of Synthetic Resins), 5th Edition, 1943, page 560).
Oxyalkylates which contain sulfosuccinate groups and are based on resin acid esters of polyalcohols are known as dispersing agents for the fine dispersion and stabilization of solids and as wetting, emulsifying and leveling agents and dyeing auxiliaries from U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,297,270 and 4,312,631.
Aqueous pigment dispersions which are stable to flocculation and are prepared with the aid of block polymers of oxyalkylated aliphatic, aromatic or cycloaliphatic diamines are described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,841,888 and 3,947,287.
Dyeing auxiliaries which are used for dyeing wool with anionic dyestuffs and are obtained by half-esterification of oxyalkylated fatty amines with, maleic or phthalic anhydride are described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,778,919.
Block polymers of ethylenediamine derivatives using an alkylene oxide as an auxiliary are furthermore described for padding disperse dyestuffs onto hydrophobic synthetic fibers in the Japanese Patent Publication Sho-59-071 486. Block polymers of oxyalkylated alkylenediamines which are modified with styrene and partly sulfated with sulfuric acid are finally also known for use as leveling agents in the dyeing of synthetic material's from the Japanese Patent Publication Sho-58-191,283.
However, none of the products described in the abovementioned publications is suitable for decidedly improving the flow properties of printing inks without having an adverse influence on other parameters such as depth of color, gloss, color shade and dispersibility.
The present invention is based on the object of providing surface-active agents which are suitable for the production of solids dispersions having good flow properties, preferably coloring agent preparations for offset printing, and are largely free from the abovementioned disadvantages.
Esterification of oxyalkylates based on modified or nonmodified naturally occurring resin acids or resin amines or resin alcohols derived therefrom with dicarboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof and subsequent reaction with alkylenediamines or alkylenepolyamines gives pale yellowish, low-foaming surface-active substances which are surprisingly suitable for the production of solids dispersions having good flow properties, in particular coloring agent preparations having good flow properties.

The invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention. They are obtained by

c) and subsequently converting the free carboxyl groups of the carboxylic acid compound A[(B).sub.m --CO--F--COOH].sub.q chiefly formed with at least one diamine or polyamine on which the formula Z is based into the particular amide form or salt form.
Because of the large number of reaction centers in the starting compounds, no pure, uniform end product but a mixture, which nevertheless contains compounds according to the formula (I) as the main component, i.e. to the extent of more than 50% by weight, preferably to the extent of more than 90% by weight, is obtained in the preparation of the compounds according to the invention.
The degree of conversion in reaction stages a) and b) described above is characterized in th preparation examples by the hydroxyl number and the acid number, and the degree of conversion to the end product is characterized by the amine number.
The molecular weight of the compounds according to the invention can vary within a wide range and extends from 800 to 50000, preferably 1000 to 10000, in particular 1000 to 3000.
The following resin compounds on which the radical A is based are suitable, for example, for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention:
a) naturally occurring resin acids and their hydrogenation or disproportionation products, the resin compounds mentioned preferably being in the form of the commercially available colophony types or obtained therefrom;
b) resin amines such as are obtained from the resin acids mentioned under a) by conversion to the resin acid nitrile and subsequent hydrogenation;
c) resin alcohols such as are formed from the resin acids mentioned under a) by reduction, in particular hydrogenation;
d) esterification products such as are obtained by esterification of a nonmodified or a modified naturally occurring resin acid, such as are mentioned under a), with a 2- to 6-hydric alcohol or an aminooxyalkylate of the formula (II), it being necessary for 1 to 11, preferably 2 to 6, free hydroxyl groups still to be present in the esterification product.
Suitable starting substances are, preferably, naturally occurring resin acids, such as abietic acid, dehydroabietic acid, dihydroabietic acid, tetrahydroabietic acid, levopimaric acid, dextropimaric acid and isodextropimaric acid, such as exist in commercially available colophony types. Other substances which are furthermore preferably suitable are disproportionated, hydrogenated and dimerized resin acids, resin alcohols, such as abietyl alcohol and hydroabietyl alcohol, the commercially available mixture of dehydroabietyl, dihydroabietyl and tetrahydroabietyl alcohol (industrial hydroabietyl alcohol) also being suitable, and resin amines which are derived from the abovementioned resin acids, in particular dehydroabietylamine.
The following polyhydric alcohols, for example, are suitable for esterification of the resin acids in the production of the resin compounds mentioned under d): 1,2-ethanediol, 1,2-propanediol, 1,2- and 1,4-butanediol, 1,2,4-butanetriol, 1,1,1-trimethylolpropane, glycerol, polyglycerol, pentaerythritol, dipentaerythritol, trimethylolethane, neopentylglycol, 2,4-dihydroxy-3-methylolpentane, 1,2,6-hexanetriol, sorbitol, anhydrosorbitol, hexitol and mannitol, preferably glycerol and polyglycerol.
The aminooxyalkylates of the formula (II) are likewise suitable for esterification of the resin acids in the preparation of the resin compounds mentioned under d). Aminooxyalkylates of the formula (II) are described in K. Lindner, Tenside, Textilhilfsmittel, Waschrohstoffe (Surfactants, Textile Auxiliaries, Detergent Bases), Springer-Verlag, 1964, pages 1055 to 1056. The aminooxyalkylates of the formula (II) can be prepared by customary methods by oxyalkylating the corresponding diamine or polyamine with ethylene oxide, propylene oxide or a mixture thereof at a temperature of 80.degree. to 160.degree. C., preferably 110.degree. to 140.degree. C., under a pressure of 2 to 8 bar, preferably 3 to 5 bar, advantageously with addition of alkaline catalysts. Two or more aminooxyalkylate units of the formula (II) can be linked by esterification of an aminooxyalkylate with at least one dicarboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acid anhydride in a molar ratio of aminooxyalkylate to dicarboxylic acid (anhydride) of 2:1 to 5:4, preferably 2:1 to 3:2, in at least one reaction stage.
Suitable dicarboxylic acids for the production of the compounds according to the invention are, preferably, aliphatic dicarboxylic acids having 3 to 12 carbon atoms, in particular malonic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, 1,5-pentanedicarboxylic acid, 1,6-hexanedicarboxylic acid and 1,10-decanedicarboxylic acid, and also, for example, cyclohexane-1,4-dicarboxylic acid as well as phthalic acid and terephthalic acid. Suitable anhydrides are, in particular, maleic anhydride, succinic anhydride, glutaric anhydride and phthalic anhydride.
The aminooxyalkylates can be linked with the dicarboxylic acids mentioned or anhydrides thereof by esterification methods which are customary per se. The reaction temperature here is between 0.degree. C. and 240.degree. C., preferably 130.degree. to 180.degree. C., depending on the esterification method. The esterification is preferably carried out in an inert organic solvent which is suitable as an entraining agent for removal of the water of reaction, in order to increase the yield. For example, the esterification can be carried out in xylene as the organic solvent and in the presence of acid catalysts at a temperature of 130.degree. to 220.degree. C., preferably 140.degree. to 170.degree. C., while the esterification with maleic anhydride, succinic anhydride or phthalic anhydride is carried out at 0.degree. C. to 150.degree. C., preferably at 40.degree. to 80.degree. C. in the case of maleic anhydride and preferably at 90.degree. to 120.degree. C. in the case of succinic anhydride and phthalic anhydride.
Suitable acid catalysts are organic and inorganic acids, for example benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, boric acid and sulfuric acid, Lewis acids, such as zinc chloride or tin powder and mixtures thereof, or acid ion exchangers. It is advantageous to employ the organic and inorganic acids and the Lewis acids in a concentration of 0.05 to 3% by weight, preferably 0.5 to 1% by weight, to employ tin powder in a concentration of 2 to 5% by weight, preferably 3 to 4% by weight, and to employ the acid ion exchangers in a concentration of 3 to 10% by weight, preferably 5 to 7% by weight, in each case based on the oxyalkylate to be esterified.
The nonmodified or modified naturally occurring resin acids are esterified with a polyhydric alcohol or with an aminooxyalkylate of 1 to 5 units of the compound of the formula (II) in a molar ratio such that the particular esterification product still contains 1 to 11, preferably 2 to 6, free hydroxyl groups. A molar ratio of resin acid to polyhydric alcohol or aminooxyalkylate of 1:1 to 3:1 is preferably used. The esterification reaction can be carried out by customary processes at about 100.degree. to 300.degree. C., preferably at 160 to 270.degree. C., if appropriate with addition of an entraining agent, for example an aromatic hydrocarbon or chlorohydrocarbon, if appropriate also with the addition of a catalyst, such as benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, boric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and tin powder, in the abovementioned concentrations.
The oxyalkylation of the nonmodified or modified naturally occurring resin acids, resin alcohols, resin amines and resin acid esters from which the radical A in the general formula (I) is derived can be carried out by customary methods. Preferably, the particular resin substance is reacted with ethylene oxide or propylene oxide or both epoxides (in alternation or as a mixture) at a temperature of 100.degree. to 200.degree. C., preferably at 120.degree. to 160.degree. C., in the presence of a hydroxide or an alkoxylate as the catalyst, preferably an alkali metal hydroxide, such as potassium hydroxide or in particular sodium hydroxide, or an alkali metal alkoxylate, such as sodium methylate or sodium ethylate. The amount of the epoxides used or of the epoxide mixture is chosen so that 1 to 100 mol, preferably 2 to 20 mol, of the epoxide or epoxides used are added on per reactive hydrogen atom of the free carboxyl groups, hydroxyl groups and amino groups of the particular resin substance. The concentration of the alkali metal hydroxide or alkali metal alkoxylate catalyst should preferably be 0.05 to 1.0% by weight, based on the resin substance, at the start of the oxyalkylation. The oxyalkylation can be carried out under normal pressure or in pressure vessels with propylene oxide or, preferably, with ethylene oxide or with mixtures of both epoxides, it being possible for the alkylene oxide to be added in gaseous or liquid form. The operating pressure is as a rule 1 to 10 bar, preferably 2 to 8 bar. The amount of alkylene oxide added on can be varied and optimized according to the intended use and the required degree of hydrophilicity of the amine condensates or amine salts of the formula (I) produced from the oxyalkylation products.
The reaction of the amines on which the formula Z is based with the oxyalkylated resin substance prepared in the preceding reaction step is carried out after half-esterification of the terminal hydroxyl groups of the oxyalkylated resin substances with suitable dicarboxylic acids or anhydrides thereof. The following are suitable, for example, for the esterification: maleic acid, maleic anhydride, fumaric acid, phthalic acid, phthalic anhydride, isophthalic acid, terephthalic acid, oxalic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, succinic anhydride, glutaric acid, glutaric anhydride, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid and sebacic acid. The oxyalkylates are half-esterified with the dicarboxylic acids mentioned by customary processes at 130.degree. to 220.degree. C., preferably at 150.degree. to 180.degree. C., in the presence of inorganic or organic acids or of Lewis acids, such as zinc chloride, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, boric acid, tin powder or sulfuric acid, in the abovementioned concentrations. The water of reaction which forms is removed by distillation, if appropriate with addition of an entraining agent, for example a hydrocarbon or chlorohydrocarbon. If dicarboxylic acid anhydrides are used, the half-esterification is already carried out at 0.degree. to 150.degree. C., preferably at 40.degree. to 120.degree. C., if appropriate in the presence of alkali metal hydroxides, in which case the concentration of the alkali metal hydroxides should be 0.1 to 1.0% by weight, based on the total mixture. In the case of maleic anhydride, succinic anhydride and phthalic anhydride, it is advantageous, because of the tendency toward sublimation, to carry out the reaction in pressure vessels under an increased pressure of 0.2 to 1.0 bar of nitrogen or air and to ensure vigorous mixing, since the molten anhydrides are miscible with the oxyalkylated resin compounds to only a small extent at the start of the reaction.
The oxyalkylation products provided with a carboxyl group are then reacted with the amines on which Z is based to give either amides or amine salts, approximately the equimolar amount of the amine being employed per free carboxyl group of the particular half-ester. In the case of amidation, the reaction temperature to be observed is usually between 20.degree. and 240.degree. C., but is preferably 130.degree. to 180.degree. C., depending on the amidation method. The amidation is preferably carried out in an inert organic solvent which is a suitable entraining agent for removal of the water of reaction, in order to increase the yield. For example, the amidation can be carried out in xylene as the organic solvent and in the presence of acid catalysts at a temperature of 130.degree. to 220.degree. C. Suitable acid catalysts are, for example, acids and Lewis acids, such as benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, boric acid, tin powder, zinc chloride or sulfuric acid.
In contrast, the amine salts are prepared at a temperature of 20.degree. to 130.degree. C., preferably at 40.degree. to 90.degree. C., in particular 70.degree. to 90.degree. C.
The yield of end product both in the amidation and in the preparation of the amine salt is more than 90% of the theoretical value.

The invention also relates to the use of the compounds according to the invention as surface-active agents. Because of their diverse surface-active properties, the substances according to the invention have a broad use spectrum. They belong to the class of surface-active compounds according to DIN 53 900, reduce surface tension by the ring pull-off method (DIN 53 914) and are to be described as nonfoaming or low-foaming surface-active substances from the results in the modified Ross-Miles test (DIN 53 902). With a suitable degree of hydrophilicity, they exhibit an excellent wetting power for cotton by the dip-wetting method (DIN 53 901), coupled with good leveling properties according to DIN 53 504. Their use as wetting and leveling agents and dyeing auxiliaries is therefore advantageous. They furthermore have a very good flocculation-preventing power (DIN 53 908) against pigments and dyestuffs and can moreover be used as retention agents.
The substances according to the invention can be used either as emulsifiers or as dispersing agents for solids dispersions. This applies above all to use as coupling auxiliaries or preparation agents or both in the production of azo compounds, preferably azo coloring agents, in particular azo pigments for offset printing, as dispersing agents for the fine dispersion and stabilization of sparingly soluble or insoluble coloring agents and for the production of pigments dispersions having good flow properties.
The substances according to the invention are furthermore suitable as additives and emulsifiers for the production of fat and mineral oil emulsions, for example as corrosion protection additives, and as additives for the production of cooling lubricants and cold rolling oils in the metalworking industry.
The compounds according to the invention can be employed individually or as mixtures, as well as in combinations with other nonionic or cationic surfactants or mixtures thereof. They can furthermore be used together with customary amounts of matrix substances or other customary additives or auxiliaries in emulsifying and dispersing agent formulations.
