- the pH of the treatment solution e.g., by making it more acidic
- Suitable acids that may be used in this regard include sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, citric acid, hydrochloric acid, oxalic acid, and autoacid (a mixture of urea and sulfuric acid). While the optimal pH for the treatment solution may vary depending on the choice of materials, optimal results are generally obtained with a pH of less than about 5, and more preferably, a pH of less than about 3.
- the color of the carpet is Vellum and is designated by the color code 76113
- a carpet sample measuring approximately 5 inches by 4 inches (13 cm x 10 cm) is immersed in deionized water at room temperature until dripping wet. Water is extracted from the wet sample by spinning in a Bock Centrifugal Extractor until the sample is damp. The damp carpet sample is then steamed for 2 minutes at atmospheric pressure, at a temperature of 90-100°C, and 100% relative humidity in an enclosed steam chamber.
- the carpet sample After steaming, the carpet sample is allowed to cool to near room temperature, and the aqueous treating composition is applied by placing the carpet sample, carpet fiber side down, in a glass tray containing the treating composition.
- the treating composition contains sufficient glassy fluorochemical and/or hydrocarbon material and sufficient stainblocking material to give the desired percent solids on fiber (% SOF) and is prepared by dissolving or dispersing the two types of materials and (optionally) the desired amount of salt in deionized water and adjusting the pH to a value of 2 (unless specified otherwise) using 10% aqueous sulfamic acid.
- the weight of the aqueous treating solution in the glass tray is approximately 3.5 to 4 times the weight of the carpet sample.
- the carpet sample absorbs the entire volume of treating solution over a 1 to 2 minute period to give a percent wet pickup of 350-400%).
- wet treated carpet sample is steamed a second time for 2 minutes (using the same conditions and equipment as described above), is immersed briefly in a 5-gallon bucket half full of deionized water, is rinsed thoroughly under a deionized water stream to remove residual, excess treating composition, is spun to dampness using the centrifugal extractor, and is allowed to air-dry overnight at room temperature before testing.
- the aqueous treating solution is applied to the carpet via spraying to about 15%> by weight wet pickup, using a laboratory-sized spray booth with conveyor belt designed to mimic the performance of a large-scale commercial spray boom as is conventionally used in carpet mills.
- the wet sprayed carpet is then dried at 120°C until dry (typically for 10-20 minutes) in a forced air oven.
- the application rate (in %> SOF) is controlled by varying the conveyor belt speed.
- the foamer applicator used in the present invention consists of a foam preparation device and a vacuum frame device.
- the foam preparation device is a Hobart Kitchen-AidTM mixer made by the Kitchen- Aid Division of Hobart Corporation, Troy, Ohio.
- the vacuum frame device is a small stainless steel bench with a vacuum plenum and a vacuum bed.
- the carpet to be treated is placed on the bed, along with the foamed material to be deposited onto the carpet.
- the vacuum bed forms a bench that has an exhaust port fitted to a Dayton TradesmanTM 25 gallon Heavy Duty Shop Vac.
- the size of the bed is 8" x 12" x 1.5" (20 cm x 30 cm x 4 cm).
- the plenum is separated from the rest of the bed by an aluminum plate in which closely spaced 1/16" (1.7 mm) holes are drilled.
- the plate is similar in structure to a colander.
- the portion of carpet to be treated is weighed.
- the carpet may then be pre- wetted with water.
- blow ratio foam volume/foam weight
- the foam should be adjusted so that the wet pick-up of foam is about 60% that of the dry carpet weight, although other values for the wet pick-up may be employed as required for a particular application.
- a doctor blade can be prepared out of any thin, stiff material. Thin vinyl sheeting, approximately 100 mil (2.5 mm) thick, is especially suitable, since it can be cut easily to any size. The notch part of the blade should be about 8" (20 cm) wide so as to fit into the slot of the vacuum bed.
- liquid to be foamed is put into the bowl of the Kitchen- AidTM mixer.
- the wire whisk attachment is used and the mixer is set to its highest speed (10).
- About 2-3 minutes are allowed for the foam to form and stabilize at a certain blow ratio.
- the blow ratio may be calculated by placing volume marks on the side of the bowl.
- Treated ca ⁇ et samples were evaluated for water repellency using 3M Water Repellency Test V for Floorcoverings (February 1994), available from Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company.
- treated carpet samples are challenged to penetrations by blends of deionized water and isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Each blend is assigned a rating number as shown below:
- a treated ca ⁇ et sample is placed on a flat, horizontal surface and the ca ⁇ et pile is hand-brushed in the direction giving the greatest lay to the yarn.
- Five small drops of water or a water/IPA mixture are gently placed at points at least two inches apart on the ca ⁇ et sample. If, after observing for ten seconds at a 45° angle, four of the five drops are visible as a sphere or a hemisphere, the ca ⁇ et is deemed to pass the test.
- the reported water repellency rating corresponds to the highest numbered water or water/IPA mixture for which the treated ca ⁇ et sample passes the described test.
- Treated ca ⁇ et samples were evaluated for oil repellency using 3M Oil Repellency Test III (February 1994), available from Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company, St. Paul, Minnesota. In this test, treated ca ⁇ et samples are challenged to penetration by oil or oil mixtures of varying surface tensions. Oils and oil mixtures are given a rating corresponding to the following:
- Oil Repellency Test is run in the same manner as is the Water Repellency Test, with the reported oil repellency rating corresponding to the highest oil or oil mixture for which the treated ca ⁇ et sample passes the test.
- Dynamic water resistance was determined using the following test procedure.
- a treated ca ⁇ et sample (15.2 cm x 15.2 cm) is inclined at an angle of 45° from horizontal and 20 mL of deionized water is impinged onto the center of the ca ⁇ et sample through a glass tube with 5 mm inside diameter positioned 45.7 cm above the test sample.
- the increase in weight (g) of the test sample is measured, with lower weight gains indicating better dynamic water repellency properties.
- Stain resistance was determined using the following test procedure.
- a treated 13 cm x 10 cm ca ⁇ et sample is stained for 2 minutes by immersing the ca ⁇ et sample in an aqueous solution of 0.007%) (wt) of Red Dye FD&C #40 in deionized water adjusted to a pH of 2.8 with 10% aqueous sulfamic acid.
- the dye solution is warmed to a temperature of 55-70°C.
- the treated and stained ca ⁇ et sample is then immersed briefly in a 5-gallon bucket half full of deionized water, followed by rinsing under a stream of deionized water until the water runs clear.
- the wet ca ⁇ et sample is then extracted to dampness using a Bock Centrifugal Extractor and is air-dried overnight at room temperature.
- the degree of staining of the ca ⁇ et sample is determined numerically by using a Minolta 310 Chroma MeterTM compact tristimulus color analyzer.
- the color analyzer measures red stain color autochromatically on the red-green color coordinate as a "delta a" ( ⁇ a) value as compared to the color of an unstained and untreated ca ⁇ et sample. Measurements reported in the tables below are given to one place following the decimal point and represent the average of 3 measurements, unless stated otherwise. A greater ⁇ a reading indicates a greater amount of staining from the red dye. ⁇ a readings typically vary from 0 (no staining) to 50 (severe staining).
- the relative soiling potential of each treatment was determined by challenging both treated and untreated (control) ca ⁇ et samples under defined "walk-on" soiling test conditions and comparing their relative soiling levels.
- the test is conducted by mounting treated and untreated ca ⁇ et squares on particle board, placing the samples on the floor of one of two chosen commercial locations, and allowing the samples to be soiled by normal foot traffic. The amount of foot traffic in each of these areas is monitored, and the position of each sample within a given location is changed daily using a pattern designed to minimize the effects of position and orientation upon soiling.
- the treated samples are removed and the amount of soil present on a given sample is determined using colorimetric measurements, making the assumption that the amount of soil on a given sample is directly proportional to the difference in color between the unsoiled sample and the corresponding sample after soiling.
- the three CIE L*a*b* color coordinates of the unsoiled and subsequently soiled samples are measured using a Minolta 310 Chroma Meter with a D65 illumination source.
- the color difference value, ⁇ E is calculated using the equation shown below:
- ⁇ E [( ⁇ L*) 2 + ( ⁇ a*) 2 + ( ⁇ b*) 2 ] ⁇ 2
- the Receding Contact Angle Test provides a quick and precise prediction of the anti-soiling potential of treated nylon ca ⁇ et. Receding contact angle values measured with H-hexadecane using this test have correlated well with anti- soiling values measured from actual foot traffic using the "Walk-On" Soiling Test.
- nylon film is prepared as follows. Nylon film is cut into 85 mm x 13 mm rectangular strips. Each strip is cleaned by dipping into methyl alcohol, wiping with a KimwipeTM wiper
- the strip is immersed in the treating solution, and the strip is then withdrawn slowly and smoothly from the solution.
- the coated film strip is tilted to allow any solution run-off to accumulate at the corner of the strip, and a KimwipeTM tissue is touched to the corner to pull away the solution buildup.
- the coated film strip is allowed to air dry in a protected location for a minimum of 30 minutes and then is cured for 10 minutes at 121 °C.
- n-hexadecane is applied to the treated film and the receding contact angle of the drop of is measured using a CAHN Dynamic Contact Angle Analyzer, Model DCA 322 (a Wilhelmy balance apparatus equipped with a computer for control and data processing, commercially available from ATI, Madison, Wisconsin).
- the CAITN Dynamic Contact Angle Analyzer is calibrated using a 500 mg weight. An alligator clip is fastened to a piece of coated film strip about 30 mm long, and the clip and film piece are hung from the stirrup of the balance.
- a 30 mL glass beaker containing approximately 25 mL of «-hexadecane is placed under the balance stirrup, and the beaker is positioned so that the coated film strip is centered over the beaker and its contents but not touching the walls of the beaker.
- the platform supporting the beaker is carefully raised until the surface of «-hexadecane is 2-3 mm from the lower edge of the film strip.
- the door to the apparatus is closed, the "Configure” option is chosen from the "Initialize” menu of the computer, the "Automatic” option is chosen from the "Experiment” menu, and the computer program then calculates the time for a total of 3 scans.
- the result should be a time interval of 1 second and estimated total time of 5 minutes, which are the acceptable settings to show the baseline weight of the sample.
- the Return Key is then pressed to begin the automatic measurement cycle. 10 readings of the baseline are taken before the scan begins. The apparatus then raises and lowers the liquid so that 3 scans are taken. The "Least Squares" option is then selected from the "Analysis” menu, and the average receding contact angle is calculated from the 3 scans of the film sample.
- the 95% confidence interval for the average of the 3 scans is typically about ⁇ 1.2°.
- the level (%> SOF) of either fluorochemical material (F-10) or hydrocarbon material (H-l) required for optimum performance was determined using the Simulated Flex-Nip Coapplication Procedure.
- the aqueous acidic treating bath was adjusted to apply 0.6% SOF of stainblocking material S-1 and 1.0% SOF of MgSO 4 to Wolf-Laurel Nylon 6 ca ⁇ et.
- no F-10 or H-l was used.
- Measured ca ⁇ et performance properties of soil resistance, water repellency, oil repellency, dynamic water repellency and stain resistance are presented in Table 3.
- Hybrid fluorochemical materials FH-1, FH-2, FH-3 and FH-4 were compared in performance to their non-hybrid analogues, fluorochemical material F-18 and hydrocarbon material H-4A.
- the various repellent materials were coapplied at a total level of 0.15% SOF with stainblocking material S-1 at 0.6% SOF to Wolf- Laurel nylon 6 ca ⁇ et.
- the MgSO 4 level was kept at 1.0% SOF throughout the study. Results from this study are presented in Table 5. (Examples 21 and 26, representing 100%) fluorochemical moieties and 100%) hydrocarbon moieties, respectively, were included from Table 4.)
- Repellent Material Soiling, Water Oil Dyn. Staining.
- the level (% SOF) of magnesium sulfate required to provide optimum performance in a flex-nip-applied coapplication formulation was determined.
- the Simulated Flex-Nip Coapplication Procedure was used to apply 0.15% SOF of fluorochemical material F-10 and 0.6% SOF of stainblocking material S-1 to Wolf-Laurel nylon 6 ca ⁇ et, with treating solution pH adjusted to 2 using sulfamic acid.
- Results showing the effect of magnesium sulfate level on ca ⁇ et water repellency, oil repellency, dynamic water repellency and stain resistance are presented in Table 6.
- FIGS. 2-5 are micrographs which illustrate the effects of the concentration of magnesium salt on treatment process of the present invention.
- the concentration of magnesium salt used in the treatment method is too small. Consequently, there is little or no exhaustion of the fluorochemical onto the fiber, resulting in poor water repellency and no oil repellency.
- FIG. 2 which corresponds to Example 31, the concentration of magnesium salt used in the treatment method is too small. Consequently, there is little or no exhaustion of the fluorochemical onto the fiber, resulting in poor water repellency and no oil repellency.
- the concentration of magnesium salt is too high, resulting in coagulation of the fluorochemical. This causes a decrease in the dynamic water repellency and slightly less than optimal oil repellency.
- the concentration of magnesium salt is optimal, resulting in even exhaustion of the fluorochemical onto the fiber surface and optimal performance characteristics.
- FIG. 5 is a micrograph of a hydrocarbon (H-l) which was exhausted under conditions similar to those for Example 35. As in Example 35, an even coating of hydrocarbon was achieved on the fiber surface, and good performance characteristics were observed.
- FIG. 6 is a micrograph of a ca ⁇ et treated by a typical spray application process. Upon comparison to FIGS. 4-5, it is apparent that ca ⁇ et fibers treated in accordance with the method of the present invention are coated more evenly, and thus exhibit better antisoiling properties, than ca ⁇ ets treated by a spray application method.
- the pH required to provide optimum performance in flex-nip-applied fluorochemical or hydrocarbon material-containing coapplication formulations was determined in the absence of a salt.
- the Simulated Flex- Nip Coapplication Procedure was used to co-apply 0.15% SOF of fluorochemical material F-10 or 0.15 % SOF of hydrocarbon material H-l with 0.6% SOF of stainblocking material S-1 to Wolf-Laurel nylon 6 ca ⁇ et.
- Stinblocking material was applied.
- the treating solution was adjusted to various pH values using sulfamic acid. Results showing the effect of pH on ca ⁇ et water repellency, oil repellency, dynamic water repellency and stain resistance are presented in Table 7.
- the pH required to provide optimum performance in flex-nip-applied fluorochemical or hydrocarbon material-containing coapplication formulations was determined in the presence of magnesium sulfate.
- the Simulated Flex-Nip Coapplication Procedure was used to co-apply 0.15% SOF of fluorochemical material F-10 or 0.15% SOF of hydrocarbon material H-l with 0.6% SOF of stainblocking material S-1 and 1.0% SOF of MgSO 4 to Wolf-Laurel nylon 6 ca ⁇ et.
- the treating solution was adjusted to various pH values using sulfamic acid. Results showing the effect of pH on ca ⁇ et water repellency, oil repellency and dynamic water repellency are presented in Table 8. Also presented in Table 8 for Examples 49-59 is the parts per million of fluorine detected on each treated ca ⁇ et as determined using the Fluorine Analysis Combustion Test.
- the dynamic repellency which is a measure of the instantaneous abso ⁇ tion of water by the substrate, increases more slowly as a function of decreasing pH when a salt (MgSO 4 ) is used than when no salt is used.
- pH has a lesser effect on dynamic repellency in the process of the present invention when a salt is used.
- the data also indicate that, at a given pH, the presence of salt improves the dynamic repellency across the board. For materials with good repellency properties, improved dynamic repellency is indicative of improved (e.g., more uniform) application of the fluorochemical or hydrocarbon to the substrate.
- the presence of a salt improves the application of the fluorochemical or hydrocarbon to the substrate.
- the improvement in application to the substrate would be expected to impart better antisoiling properties.
- the level (% SOF) of stainblocking material required to provide optimum performance in a flex-nip-applied coapplication formulation was determined.
- the Simulated Flex-Nip Coapplication Procedure was used to apply the designated %> SOF of stainblocking material S-1, 0.15%) SOF of fluorochemical material F-10 and 1.0% SOF of MgSO 4 to Wolf-Laurel nylon 6 ca ⁇ et, with treating solution pH adjusted to 2 using sulfamic acid.
- Results showing the effect of stainblocking material level on ca ⁇ et water repellency, oil repellency, dynamic water repellency and stain resistance on ca ⁇ et are presented in Table 9. Table 9
- fluorochemical material F-8 was spray applied to the hydrocarbon material-treated ca ⁇ et at theoretical fluorine level of either 250 or 500 ppm. Then the treated ca ⁇ et was subjected to one cycle of the "Walk-On" Soiling Test.
