Patent number: 6149549Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a process for making fabrics containing cotton fibers more aesthetically pleasing and resistant to staining by anionic dyes by derivatising the cotton so that it exhibits a permanent anionic charge. By increasing the anionic charge of the fibers, the fibers become resistant to anionic coloring agents which may undesirably come into contact with the fibers. Furthermore, the negative charges repel each other resulting in a fabric with greater loft and porosity. This results in greater smoothness, better hand, and more comfort. Besides being used to prevent the cross-staining of fabrics, the present invention can also be used to make carpet materials resistant to anionic staining agents. Alternatively, it has also been discovered that an anionic derivative can be used to catalyze permanent press resins onto fabrics containing cellulosic fibers, also resulting in anionic cotton.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 1998Date of Patent: November 21, 2000Assignee: Syborn Chemicals, Inc.Inventors: Robert B.

Patent number: 4678473Abstract: Cellulosic fibers are converted to cellulosate by immersion in an alkali metal hydroxide and then reacted with an aqueous solution of thioarylsulfonium salts to produce modified cellulosic fibers which are substantive to acid, direct, disperse, reactive and sulfur dyes. Cellulosic/synthetic and cellulosic/wool blends can also be treated to produce a fabric blend comprising modified cellulosic components that are substantive to diverse dye classes and synthetic and wool components which are substantive to a single dye class. When using a disperse dyebath of one color the entire fabric blend is dyed one color. When adding an acid, reactive or sulfur dye of a second color to the dyebath, the synthetic or wool component is dyed one color and the cellulosic component is dyed a different color.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 1986Date of Patent: July 7, 1987Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of AgricultureInventors: Tyrone L.

Patent number: 4666454Abstract: A fabric comprising polyethylene terephthalate fibers which exhibits a reduced tendency to pill upon encountering surface abrasion is formed on an expeditious basis. During the polymerization of the monomers required to form the polyethylene terephthalate, a quantity of polyethylene glycol (as described) is copolymerized therewith to form a polymer which exhibits a substantial intrinsic viscosity (as described). Following the melt-extrusion of the polymer to form fibers and fabric formation, the fabric is subjected to a dye bath at an elevated temperature wherein it is dyed, and the intrinsic viscosity of the polymer is reduced (as described). The presence of units derived from polyethylene glycol within the polymer chain has been found to lead to such intrinsic viscosity reduction within the dye bath.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 1985Date of Patent: May 19, 1987Assignee: Celanese CorporationInventors: Ronald N. DeMartino, Jeffrey T. Langley, Robert D. Johnson

Patent number: 4557732Abstract: Improvement of a process for spin-dyeing acid-modified polymers or copolymers of acrylonitrile in which cationic quaternary dyestuffs are added to the spinning mass and spun according to the wet-spinning procedure. The improvement is characterized by using dyestuffs characterized by a migration factor M of 20 or less than 20, by a combination index K of less than 2.5 and a cation weight of more than 310. Migration factor M and combination index K are known values in the dyestuff field or can be determined. The dyestuff to be used according to the invention can belong to the most different classes of dyestuffs; they fix rapidly on the polymer, and thus they do not color, or color only to a minor extent, the coagulation, stretching and washing baths although they are soluble in water and aqueous solutions of these baths.Type: GrantFiled: October 4, 1983Date of Patent: December 10, 1985Assignee: Hoechst AktiengesellschaftInventors: Manfred Hahnke, Reinhard Mohr, Kurt Hohmann

Patent number: 4452607Abstract: Fabrics formed at least partially of highly shrinkable fibers, such as polyester fibers, are dyed in a process which provides a number of significant economic and processing advantages over conventionally used dyeing processes, such as jet dyeing, producing a product with enhanced physical properties. The process involves first subjecting the fabric to a preparatory heat treatment step under conditions in which the fabric is allowed substantially complete freedom to relax and shrink, after which the fabric is wound onto a dye beam and beam-dyed. Following dyeing the fabric may be subjected to finishing operations, such as napping, and then to a tentering operation in which the fabric is stretched widthwise to restore a predetermined width, while being heated to a temperature greater than that used in the preparatory heat treatment step.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 1983Date of Patent: June 5, 1984Assignee: Collins & Aikman CorporationInventor: David A.
