Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of textile printing and dyeing technology, specifically relating to a dyeing method for improving the color fastness of spandex using azo disperse orange dyes. Background Technology

[0002] Spandex fiber, scientifically known as polyurethane fiber, is a synthetic fiber with extremely high elasticity. Its elongation at break can reach 500% to 700%, and it can quickly return to its original shape. This unique property makes spandex widely used in many fields such as clothing (e.g., sportswear, yoga wear, underwear), medical compression clothing, and home furnishings, significantly improving the comfort and fit of fabrics. The molecular structure of spandex consists of soft and hard segments, forming a microphase separation structure, which is the source of its high elasticity.

[0003] Despite its wide range of applications, spandex's inherent molecular structure and chemical properties pose significant challenges to dyeing processes. Poor dyeing performance and low color fastness have become bottlenecks restricting its application in high-end fabrics. Specifically, its technical difficulties manifest in many aspects, such as molecular structure defects, "white showing" phenomenon, poor wet heat fastness, poor washing fastness, and low light fastness.

[0004] To improve the dyeing performance of spandex, the industry has explored various approaches, but all of them have limitations to varying degrees. The approaches can be roughly classified as follows: (1) Fiber modification, introducing groups that can bind dyes (such as amino groups) during the spinning process, so that spandex can be used with acid dyes, etc., but the process is complex, costly, and may damage the elasticity of the fiber. (2) Developing or screening disperse dyes or weak acid dyes suitable for spandex, but according to market feedback, the improvement effect is limited, disperse dyes have poor fastness; although weak acid dyes have better fastness, the deep dyeing ability is still insufficient due to the limited number of amino groups in spandex itself. (3) Using spandex coloring agents, the auxiliary molecules are combined with the fiber to increase the "dyeing seat", the effect and environmental friendliness of the auxiliary agents are different, and the addition may affect the hand feel of the fabric or increase the burden of wastewater treatment. (4) Optimizing the dyeing process, such as alkali reduction treatment to etch the fiber surface to facilitate the adhesion of auxiliary agents; or using cold pad-batch dyeing to save energy. However, alkali reduction treatment requires precise control, otherwise it can easily damage the fiber; the application process parameters of cold pad-batch dyeing on spandex are still not fully explored, and the improvement in fastness is limited.

[0005] Currently, disperse dyes suitable for spandex have been developed or screened and have become mainstream, such as the monoazo disperse dyes such as Disperse Yellow H4GL, Disperse Yellow Brown 2RFL, Disperse Ruby S-2GFL, and Disperse Scarlet SBWF launched by Zhejiang Runtu Co., Ltd. ; Zhejiang Longsheng Group Co., Ltd. has launched RGFL, a dispersible yellow diazo disperse dye. ; In addition, Jiangsu Changzhou Yabang Dyestuff Co., Ltd. offers anthraquinone disperse dyes such as Disperse Red 3B and Disperse Turquoise Blue GL. .

[0006] Among the aforementioned dyes, Disperse Ruby S-2GFL showed the best affinity for spandex, achieving a dyeing rate of 91.3%. However, its wet fastness was found to be poor. The dyeing rates of the other dyes were generally between 80% and 85%, with Disperse Turquoise GL even showing a rate of only 50%. The main reason for this is that the soft segments (ether / ester chains) of spandex are porous, allowing dyes to easily enter and exit, while the hard segments have high crystallinity, making it difficult for dyes to bind. Therefore, the binding force between the dyes and spandex is weak, primarily relying on physical adsorption. Even Disperse Ruby S-2GFL, which exhibits good binding affinity to spandex, binds through van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds, making it easy to detach from the fiber in humid and hot environments.

[0007] Furthermore, the aforementioned dyes are not suitable for dyeing processes with a wide pH range, only applicable within a pH range of 4-7. The ester and cyano groups in most dyes hydrolyze and fade at higher pH conditions, making it impossible to achieve the typical "washing, scouring, and dyeing" or "alkali reduction / dyeing" one-bath process—a practice driven by technological innovation for industrial upgrading. Only alkali-resistant dyes can directly address the core demands of the current printing and dyeing industry for green, efficient, and high-quality development. In short, with the increasing demand for elastic fabrics, the problems facing spandex dyeing are becoming increasingly prominent. Existing technologies have not yet effectively solved the dyeing challenges of spandex, especially under high color fastness requirements, and must also comply with national environmental protection policies for the printing and dyeing industry.

[0008] Based on the above, finding a type of disperse dye that can dye spandex under a relatively wide pH range, with high dyeing rate and good color fastness is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0009] [Technical Issues] With the increasing use of polyester-spandex blended fibers, the problem of spandex dyeing has become more and more prominent, mainly in the following aspects: (1) Low dyeing rate. Currently, the azo disperse dyes on the market generally have a low dyeing rate. Even if there are azo disperse dyes with a dyeing rate of over 90%, their wet fastness is poor, which causes the dye to migrate from the spandex and stain the polyester.

[0010] (2) Poor color fastness. Due to the special microphase structure of spandex, the fastness of azo disperse dyes is poor.

[0011] (3) Currently, the dyes required for spandex on the market must be dyed under acidic conditions. Combined with reduction cleaning, this results in a long dyeing process, high energy consumption, and a significant increase in environmental pressure.

[0012] [Technical Solution] To address the above shortcomings, this invention provides a dyeing method that can improve the color fastness of spandex. Specifically, it proposes to apply azo disperse orange dye with a specific structure to spandex dyeing. This azo disperse orange dye can dye spandex in a wide pH range of 4 to 12, and has a high dyeing rate and good color fastness, thereby improving the color fastness of spandex dyeing.

[0013] Based on the microphase structure of spandex, the applicant discovered that most disperse dyes on the market, when used for dyeing spandex, result in poor color fastness because the dye molecules have no binding force with the soft segments of spandex, allowing them to easily enter and exit, while the hard segments are crystalline regions where dyes have difficulty entering. However, by modifying and optimizing the molecular structure of azo dyes—specifically by expanding the conjugated system of azo disperse dyes and introducing a benzene ring or benzene ring derivative structure onto one of the N atoms in the N,N-substituent—the polarity and rigidity of the entire dye structure can be ensured. This increases the hydrophobicity and binding force within the soft segment structure of spandex, and due to the increased volume, it makes migration difficult, thereby guaranteeing enhanced color fastness in spandex dyeing.

[0014] Furthermore, the introduction of N,N-substituents into the benzene ring or benzene ring derivatives increases the volume several times, or even tens of times. This creates a significant steric hindrance effect on easily hydrolyzed groups such as ester, cyano, acyl, and ether groups on adjacent N-substituents, preventing the hydrolysis of these groups under alkaline conditions. Therefore, this greatly expands the pH range for spandex dyeing, allowing it to be completed under alkaline conditions. Ultimately, this achieves a typical example of industrial upgrading driven by technological innovation: a one-bath process of "washing, scouring, and dyeing" or a one-bath process of "alkali reduction / dyeing." This fully aligns with the national core requirements for green, efficient, and high-quality development in the environmental protection industry. To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.

[0015] A dyeing method for improving the color fastness of spandex using azo disperse orange dyes, wherein the structure of the azo disperse orange dye is shown in Formula I: Formula I, Where R1 is -H, -Cl, -Br; R2 is -H, -Cl, -Br; R3 is -H, -CH3, -NHSO2CH3; R4 is -H, -CH3, -CH2CH3, -CH2CH2CN, -COCH2COCH3; R5 is -H, -CH3, -CH2CH3, -Cl; R6 is -H, -CH3, -Cl, -NO2; and n is 0, 1, or 2.

[0016] The disperse orange dye compound used in this invention is a monoazo dye with an N-substituent in the coupling component being a benzene ring or a benzene ring derivative. This design aims to increase the conjugation system and hydrophobicity of the molecular structure, as well as increase the rigidity of the molecular structure, thereby increasing the binding force between the dye molecule and the spandex.

[0017] In one embodiment of the present invention, the azo disperse orange dye preferably has the structure of dye 1 to dye 8:

[0018] In one embodiment of the present invention, the azo disperse orange dye is prepared by the following method:

[0019] Step 1: Synthesize compound I-4 Compound I-2 and compound I-3 were condensed together to obtain compound I-4.

[0020] Step 2: Diazotization of Formula I-1 The compound of formula I-1 was dissolved in 93% sulfuric acid and cooled to a certain temperature. Then, 40% nitrosyl sulfuric acid was added dropwise. After the addition was completed, the mixture was kept at the temperature for a certain period of time to carry out the diazotization reaction and obtain a diazo solution.

[0021] Step 3: Synthesize Compound I A measured amount of water and 93% sulfuric acid were added to a four-necked flask, along with compound I-4, aminosulfonic acid, and auxiliary agent O-25. The mixture was stirred and cooled to a certain temperature. Diazo solution was then added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the mixture was kept at the same temperature for several hours. The temperature was then raised to a certain level and maintained for a period of time. The mixture was then hot-filtered and washed with hot water to obtain the target dye with the structure shown in Formula I.

[0022] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, the condensation reaction is carried out in a solvent, which is any one or more mixtures of water, acetone, and acetonitrile; the mass of the solvent is 1.5 to 2.5 times the total mass of compounds of formula I-2 and formula I-3.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, the molar ratio of compound I-2 and compound I-3 in the reaction is 1:1.05~1.2.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, the reaction temperature is 60~95℃, preferably 80~85℃, and the holding time is 8~12h.

[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, acetic anhydride is added as a reaction terminator after the reaction is completed, and the amount of acetic anhydride is 5 to 10% of the amount of structural formula I-3.

[0027] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 2, during the diazotization reaction, the mass of sulfuric acid is 6 to 10 times the mass of the compound of formula I-1, and the molar amount of nitrosylsulfuric acid is 1.05 to 1.2 times the amount of substance of the compound of formula I-1. In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 2, the reaction temperature is set at -5~10℃, preferably -3~3℃; In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 2, the dripping time of nitrosyl sulfuric acid is controlled at 0.5~1h, and after the dripping is completed, the heat preservation time is controlled at 10min~2h.

[0028] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, the amount of water used in the reaction is 4 to 5 times the sum of the masses of all substances, and the amount of sulfuric acid used is determined by the pH value to ensure that the pH of the system is between 3 and 4.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, the amount of compound of structural formula I-4 is 1.05 to 1.1 times the amount of compound of formula I-1 in the diazo solution.

[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, the amount of aminosulfonic acid is 5 to 10% of the amount of nitrosylsulfonic acid.

[0031] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, Pingpingjia O-25 is a dispersant, and the amount used is 1 to 2% of the total system mass.

[0032] In one embodiment of the present invention, the reaction temperature in step 3 is -5~10℃.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, the dripping time of the diazo solution is controlled at about 2 hours, and the temperature is maintained for 2 to 8 hours after the dripping is completed.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, after the reaction is completed, the temperature is slowly raised to 60~95°C and kept at that temperature for 2~3 hours.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, after the above reaction is completed, the product is hot filtered, washed with hot water until the wash water is colorless, and then dried at 100°C for 12 hours to ensure that the moisture content is less than 0.1%, thus obtaining the dried product.

[0036] This invention also specifically provides a dyeing method for improving the color fastness of spandex using azo disperse orange dyes, comprising: Azo disperse orange dye, MF (sodium naphthalene sulfonate), sodium lignin sulfonate and water are mixed and ground, then diluted with water to prepare an initial dye bath. The pH of the initial dye bath is adjusted to 4-12, and then a leveling agent is added to obtain the dye bath. Finally, polyester-ammonia blended fibers are placed in the obtained dye bath for dyeing.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, the dispersion concentration of the dye in the initial dye bath is 1% to 3%.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, the leveling agent is A-80 (arylphenol polyoxyethylene ether). The mass ratio of azo disperse orange dye to the leveling agent is 1:0.5~0.8. Specifically, 1:0.6 is optional.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, the polyester-spandex blended fiber contains 80% polyester and 20% spandex.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, the dye bath and the polyester-spandex blended fiber are dyed at a bath ratio of 1:40.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the specific dyeing process conditions are as follows: programmed temperature rise, 5℃ / min to 80℃, then 2℃ / min to 130℃ for dyeing for 40 min, cooling down to 80℃ and holding for 0.5 h, cooling down to room temperature, and then washing the obtained fabric sample with hot water to finally obtain a polyester-ammonia blended dyed fabric sample.

[0045] The present invention provides a polyester-ammonia blended dyeing product based on the above method.

[0046] The present invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned polyester-spandex blended dyed products in clothing, medical pressure garments, and household goods.

[0047] Beneficial effects 1) The N-benzene ring substituents present in all the disperse orange dye compounds provided by this invention significantly enhance hydrophobicity and strengthen the van der Waals forces with the spandex molecular chain, making it less likely for the dye to desorb from the hydrophobic region of the spandex, and significantly improving the wash fastness.

[0048] 2) The N-benzene ring substituents present in all the disperse orange dye compounds provided by this invention increase both volume and rigidity, making it more difficult to diffuse and migrate in the amorphous region of spandex. Once dyed, spandex will be more stable, and the fastness to rubbing and wet treatment will be improved.

[0049] 3) The N-benzene ring substituents present in all the disperse orange dye compounds provided by this invention have hydrophobicity and volume that are more compatible with the supramolecular structure of spandex, allowing the dye to be more "firmly" embedded in the fiber and resulting in better overall fastness.

[0050] 4) The N-cyanoethyl substituent in azo disperse dyes is prone to hydrolysis under high-temperature alkaline dyeing conditions, resulting in a lighter color. However, the adjacent N-phenyl ring substituent provided by this invention, due to its sufficiently large size, provides steric hindrance protection to the adjacent cyanoethyl group, significantly expanding the applicable pH range for dyeing from pH 4-8 to pH 4-12. This greatly improves re-dyeing performance compared to acidic conditions. Furthermore, the alkali-resistant dyeing process enables a one-bath method of "washing, scouring, and dyeing" or a one-bath method of "alkali reduction / dyeing," representing a typical example of industrial upgrading driven by technological innovation. The use of alkali-resistant dyes directly addresses the core demands of the current printing and dyeing industry for green, efficient, and high-quality development. Attached Figure Description
