[0038] As the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, preferably, an isocyanurate derivative is used.

[0039] When the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative contains an isocyanurate derivative, the texture becomes good.

[0040] As the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, an isocyanurate derivative of hexamethylene diisocyanate is more preferable.

[0041] The first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivatives can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0042] The first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative can be produced by a known method.

[0043] The average number of isocyanate groups in the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative is 2 or more, preferably 2.5, more preferably 2.9, and for example, 3.8 or less.

[0044] When the average number of isocyanate groups is equal to or greater than the lower limit, the water repellency of an object treated with the water repellent composition can be improved.

[0045] The method for measuring the average number of isocyanate groups will be described in detail in the Examples described later.

[0046] When two or more kinds of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivatives are used in combination, the average number of isocyanate groups is calculated from the weight ratio of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivatives and the average number of isocyanate functional groups thereof.

[0047] The first long-chain active hydrogen compound has both a hydrocarbon group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms and an active hydrogen group that reacts with the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative.

[0048] Examples of the hydrocarbon group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms include linear or branched saturated hydrocarbon groups having 12 to 30 carbon atoms (e.g., alkyl groups, etc.) and linear or branched unsaturated hydrocarbon groups having 12 to 30 carbon atoms (e.g., alkenyl groups, etc.).

[0049] An example of the active hydrogen group is a hydroxyl group.

[0050] Examples of the first long-chain active hydrogen compound having both a hydrocarbon group and an active hydrogen group include a linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound, a branched saturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound, a linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound, and a branched unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound.

[0055] As the first long-chain active hydrogen compound, preferred examples include a linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound and a linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound.

[0056] The first long-chain active hydrogen compound can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds. Preferably, a linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound and a linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing active hydrogen compound are used in combination, more preferably a linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol and a linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol are used in combination, and even more preferably a stearyl alcohol and an oleyl alcohol are used in combination.

[0057] When linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol and linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol are used in combination, the blending ratio of linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol is, for example, 40 parts by mass or more, preferably 55 parts by mass or more, more preferably 70 parts by mass or more, and for example, 90 parts by mass or less, preferably 80 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol and linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol. The blending ratio of linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol is, for example, 10 parts by mass or more, preferably 20 parts by mass or more, and for example, 60 parts by mass or less, preferably 45 parts by mass or less, more preferably 30 parts by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the total amount of linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol and linear unsaturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol.

[0058] When the blending ratio of the linear saturated hydrocarbon group-containing alcohol is equal to or higher than the above lower limit, the crystallinity of the hydrocarbon group is improved, and as a result, the water repellency of the water-repellent treated object treated with this water repellent composition can be improved.

[0059] The cationic active hydrogen compound has both an active hydrogen group and a cationic group.

[0060] As described above, the active hydrogen group is an active hydrogen group that reacts with the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, and examples of the active hydrogen group include a hydroxyl group.

[0061] Moreover, the cationic active hydrogen compound preferably has two or more hydroxyl groups per molecule.

[0062] An example of the cationic group is a tertiary amino group.

[0063] That is, the cationic active hydrogen compound preferably has two or more hydroxyl groups per molecule as the active hydrogen groups, and a tertiary amino group as the cationic group.

[0064] Such a cationic active hydrogen compound can impart good dispersibility in water to the first polyurethane resin compound, and can also introduce a cationic group having affinity for textile products (described later) into the resin, thereby improving washing durability (described later).

[0065] More preferably, the cationic active hydrogen compound has two hydroxyl groups per molecule as the active hydrogen groups, and a tertiary amino group as the cationic group.

[0066] Examples of such cationic active hydrogen compounds include alkyldialkanolamines such as N-methyldiethanolamine, N-ethyldiethanolamine, N-propyldiethanolamine, N-butyldiethanolamine, and N-methyldipropanolamine, and preferably N-methyldiethanolamine.

[0067] The cationic active hydrogen compounds can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0068] An acid compound is a compound that forms a salt with a cationic group.

[0069] Examples of the acid compound include organic acids and inorganic acids.

[0070] Examples of the organic acid include acetic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, and malic acid, and preferably acetic acid and lactic acid, and more preferably acetic acid.

[0071] Examples of inorganic acids include hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, etc., and preferably hydrochloric acid.

[0072] The acid compound is preferably an organic acid.

[0073] When the acid compound contains an organic acid, the acid volatilizes by heat treatment, which reduces ionicity and improves water resistance, thereby improving the water repellency of the water repellent treated product treated with this water repellent composition. In addition, the acid volatilizes by heat treatment, which makes it easier for cationic groups to be adsorbed on textile products, thereby improving the washing durability of textile products (described later).

[0074] The acid compounds can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0075] To obtain the first polyurethane resin compound, a first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, a first long-chain active hydrogen compound, a cationic active hydrogen compound, and an acid compound are reacted with each other.

[0076] To react the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound, the cationic active hydrogen compound, and the acid compound, first, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound is blended with the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, and the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative is reacted with the first long-chain active hydrogen compound.

[0077] At this time, when the average number of isocyanate groups in the isocyanurate derivative of the aliphatic polyisocyanate is 3, for example, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound is preferably blended so that two isocyanate groups in the isocyanurate derivative of the aliphatic polyisocyanate are modified by the first long-chain active hydrogen compound to hydrocarbon groups having 12 to 30 carbon atoms, one isocyanate group remains in the isocyanurate derivative of the aliphatic polyisocyanate, and no unreacted isocyanurate derivative of the aliphatic polyisocyanate remains.

[0078] Specifically, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound is blended with the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative so that the equivalent ratio of isocyanate groups to active hydrogen groups (isocyanate groups / active hydrogen groups) is, for example, 1.2 or more, preferably 1.5 or more, and for example, 2.0 or less.

[0079] As a result, the molecular terminals of the reaction product of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative and the first long-chain active hydrogen compound (hereinafter referred to as the first intermediate reaction product) become a hydrocarbon group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms and an isocyanate group.

[0080] The reaction is carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere, and the reaction conditions are, for example, a reaction temperature of 70° C. to 120° C. and a reaction time of 1 hour to 6 hours.

[0081] The reaction is carried out until the isocyanate concentration of the first intermediate reaction product reaches a predetermined calculated value.

[0082] The isocyanate concentration can be measured by the n-dibutylamine method in accordance with JIS K-1556 using a potentiometric titrator.

[0083] In the above reaction, a known solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone can also be added in an appropriate ratio.

[0084] Next, a cationic active hydrogen compound is added to the reaction liquid containing the first intermediate reaction product, and the first intermediate reaction product is reacted with the cationic active hydrogen compound.

[0085] At this time, the cationic active hydrogen compound is blended with the first intermediate reaction product so that the equivalent ratio of isocyanate groups to active hydrogen groups of the cationic active hydrogen compound (isocyanate groups / active hydrogen groups) is, for example, 0.95 or more and, for example, 1.05 or less.

[0086] The reaction is carried out under a nitrogen atmosphere, and the reaction conditions are, for example, a reaction temperature of 70° C. to 120° C. and a reaction time of 0.5 hours to 4 hours.

[0087] The above reaction is carried out until the reaction between the first intermediate reaction product and the cationic active hydrogen compound is completed.

[0088] In the above reaction, a known solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone can also be added in an appropriate ratio.

[0089] As a result, a reaction product of the first intermediate reaction product and the cationic active hydrogen compound (hereinafter referred to as a second intermediate reaction product) is obtained.

[0090] The second intermediate reaction product has a hydrocarbon group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms and a cationic group.

[0091] The second intermediate reaction product is then combined with an acid compound.

[0092] The mixing ratio of the acid compound is, for example, 0.5 mol or more, preferably 3 mol or more, and for example, 10 mol or less, preferably 4 mol or less, per 1 mol of the cationic group of the cationic active hydrogen compound.

[0093] As a result, the acid compound forms a salt with the cationic group of the second intermediate reaction product, and a reaction liquid containing a reaction product of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound, the cationic active hydrogen compound, and the acid compound is obtained.

[0094] The above reaction product has a hydrocarbon group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms and a cationic group.

[0095] In addition, the reaction product has a hydrocarbon group having a carbon number of 12 to 30, and therefore can be self-dispersed (self-emulsified) in water without the use of a dispersant (emulsifier). In other words, the reaction product can be internally emulsified.

[0096] Next, while maintaining the temperature of this reaction liquid at, for example, 50° C. or higher and 100° C. or lower, water is added to this reaction liquid to emulsify it.

[0097] The solvent is then removed from the reaction mixture.

[0098] As a result, an aqueous dispersion containing the above reaction product (aqueous dispersion of a first polyurethane resin compound) is obtained.

[0099] The solids concentration of the aqueous dispersion is, for example, 10% by mass or more and, for example, 30% by mass or less.

[0100] In such a polyurethane resin compound, the concentration of the hydrocarbon group is 30% or more and 85% or less, and preferably 50%.

[0101] When the concentration of the hydrocarbon group is equal to or higher than the above lower limit, the water repellency of the water repellent treated object can be improved by treating the water repellent composition with the water repellent composition.

[0102] On the other hand, if the concentration of the hydrocarbon group is less than the above lower limit, the water repellency of the water repellent treated object will decrease.

[0103] Furthermore, when the concentration of the hydrocarbon group is equal to or less than the above upper limit, the stability of the polyurethane resin can be improved.

[0104] On the other hand, if the concentration of the hydrocarbon group exceeds the upper limit, the stability of the polyurethane resin decreases.

[0105] The concentration of the hydrocarbon group can be calculated from the amounts of the above-mentioned components charged.

[0106] In the above description, the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative is reacted with the first long-chain active hydrogen compound to obtain a reaction liquid containing a first intermediate reaction product, then the first intermediate reaction product is reacted with a cationic active hydrogen compound to obtain a reaction liquid containing a second intermediate reaction product, and then the second intermediate reaction product is reacted with an acid compound, but the order of the reactions is not particularly limited, and for example, the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative can be reacted with a cationic active hydrogen compound, and then the first long-chain active hydrogen compound can be reacted with an acid compound. Also, the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, the first long-chain active hydrogen compound, the cationic active hydrogen compound, and the acid compound can be mixed together and reacted. 1-2.

Isocyanate compounds Examples of the isocyanate compound include polyisocyanates such as aromatic polyisocyanates, araliphatic polyisocyanates, and aliphatic polyisocyanates.

[0107] Examples of aromatic polyisocyanates include aromatic diisocyanates such as 4,4'-, 2,4'-, or 2,2'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate or a mixture thereof (MDI), 2,4- or 2,6-tolylene diisocyanate or a mixture thereof (TDI), o-tolidine diisocyanate, 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (NDI), m- or p-phenylene diisocyanate or a mixture thereof, 4,4'-diphenyl diisocyanate, and 4,4'-diphenyl ether diisocyanate.

[0108] Examples of the aromatic aliphatic polyisocyanate include aromatic aliphatic diisocyanates such as 1,3- or 1,4-bis(isocyanatomethyl)benzene (also known as 1,3- or 1,4-xylylene diisocyanate) or a mixture thereof (XDI), 1,3- or 1,4-tetramethylxylylene diisocyanate or a mixture thereof (TMXDI), and ω,ω′-diisocyanato-1,4-diethylbenzene.

Of these, linear saturated carboxylic acids having an alkyl group having 12 to 30 carbon atoms are preferred, and stearic acid is more preferred.

[0251] The wax can also be used as an aqueous dispersion emulsified by mixing with the above-mentioned surfactant (preferably sorbitan fatty acid ester), water, and an emulsifier (preferably polyoxyethylene alkyl ether) (described later).

[0252] In such a case, the solids concentration of the aqueous dispersion is, for example, 10% by mass or more and, for example, 40% by mass or less.

[0253] If the water repellent composition contains a wax, the water repellency of the water repellent treated object can be improved by treating it with the water repellent composition.

[0254] The waxes can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0255] The mixing ratio of at least one selected from the group consisting of a blocked isocyanate compound, a silicone polymer, and a wax is, for example, 5 parts by mass or more and, for example, 20 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the polyurethane resin compound and the non-fluorinated water repellent compound.

[0256] The blending ratio of at least one selected from the group consisting of blocked isocyanate compounds, silicone polymers, and waxes is 1% by mass or more and, for example, 10% by mass or less, based on the water repellent composition.

[0257] When the water repellent composition contains a blocked isocyanate compound, the mixing ratio of the blocked isocyanate compound is, for example, 5 mass% or more and, for example, 20 mass% or less, based on the total amount of the polyurethane composition, the non-fluorinated water repellent compound, and the blocked isocyanate compound.

[0258] Furthermore, when the water repellent composition contains a silicone polymer, the blending ratio of the silicone polymer is, for example, 5 mass% or more and, for example, 20 mass% or less, based on the total amount of the polyurethane composition, the non-fluorinated water repellent compound, and the silicone polymer.

[0259] Furthermore, when the water repellent composition contains a wax, the blending ratio of the wax is, for example, 5 mass% or more and, for example, 20 mass% or less, based on the total amount of the polyurethane composition, the non-fluorinated water repellent compound, and the wax. 6. Method for producing water repellent composition The water repellent composition can be obtained by mixing a polyurethane resin compound, a non-fluorine-containing water repellent compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium.

[0260] Specifically, the water repellent composition is preferably obtained by a method (hereinafter referred to as Method 1) in which monomer components constituting the above-mentioned non-fluorinated water repellent compound are polymerized in the presence of a polyurethane resin compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium to produce a non-fluorinated water repellent compound.

[0261] Examples of the polymerization method include suspension polymerization and emulsion polymerization. From the viewpoint of obtaining an emulsion of a non-fluorinated water-repellent compound, emulsion polymerization is preferable.

[0262] When emulsion polymerization is employed, first, all or a part of the above-mentioned monomer components (specifically, the long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbon group-containing (meth)acrylate and / or amide group-containing monomer, the short-chain aliphatic hydrocarbon group-containing (meth)acrylate which is blended as necessary, the cyclic hydrocarbon group-containing (meth)acrylate which is blended as necessary, and the non-fluorine-containing copolymerizable monomer which is blended as necessary) are mixed with a polyurethane resin compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium to prepare a mixed liquid.

[0263] The mixing ratio of the surfactant relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the monomer components is, for example, 1 part by mass or more, preferably 3 parts by mass or more, and for example, 10 parts by mass or less, preferably 5 parts by mass or less.

[0264] The mixing ratio of the liquid medium relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the monomer components is, for example, 100 parts by mass or more, preferably 200 parts by mass or more, and for example, 400 parts by mass or less, preferably 300 parts by mass or less.

[0265] Next, an emulsifier is added to this mixture.

[0266] The emulsifier may be any known emulsifier, such as a cationic emulsifier or an anionic emulsifier.

[0267] As the emulsifier, the above-mentioned surfactants can also be used.

[0268] In addition, the emulsifier preferably contains a reactive emulsifier. When the emulsifier contains a reactive emulsifier, the non-fluorinated water-repellent compound (polymer of the above-mentioned monomer components) becomes a polymer containing a constitutional unit derived from the reactive emulsifier.

[0269] If the non-fluorinated water-repellent compound is a polymer containing structural units derived from a reactive emulsifier, the product stability of the aqueous dispersion (repellent composition) is improved without decreasing the water repellency.

[0270] The reactive emulsifier is an emulsifying dispersant having radical reactivity, that is, an emulsifier having one or more polymerizable unsaturated groups in the molecule, and is copolymerizable with the above-mentioned monomer component.

[0271] Examples of the reactive emulsifier include the reactive emulsifiers described in JP 2017-25440 A, and preferably the reactive emulsifier represented by the following formula (5).

[0272] [ka]

[0273] In the above formula (5), R 10 represents an organic residue having an ethylenically unsaturated double bond group having 12 to 20 carbon atoms.

[0274] R 11 represents an oxyalkylene group having 2 to 10 carbon atoms, and preferably represents an oxyethylene group. When the reactive emulsifier is a reactive emulsifier represented by the above formula (5), the product stability of the aqueous dispersion (repellent composition) is improved without decreasing the water repellency.

[0275] As the reactive emulsifier represented by the above formula (5), preferably, polyoxyethylene alkylphenol and the like are used.

[0276] The emulsifiers can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0277] The mixing ratio of the emulsifier relative to 100 parts by mass of the total amount of the monomer components is, for example, 5 parts by mass or more and, for example, 18 parts by mass or less.

[0278] The mixing ratio of the emulsifier is, for example, 8 parts by mass or more and, for example, 20 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass in total of the polyurethane resin compound and the non-fluorinated water repellent compound.

[0279] The mixing ratio of the emulsifier is, for example, 0.5 mass % or more and, for example, 5 mass % or less with respect to the water repellent composition.

[0280] After the above-mentioned components are mixed, the mixture is stirred and ultrasonic waves are applied to the mixture to emulsify it.

[0281] As a method for stirring, for example, a dispersing machine such as a homomixer, an ultrasonic homogenizer, a pressure homogenizer, a milder, or a porous membrane press-in dispersing machine is used, and preferably a homomixer is used.

[0282] The stirring conditions are appropriately set, and when a homomixer is used, the rotation speed is set to, for example, 500 rpm or more and, for example, 10,000 rpm or less. The stirring time is, for example, 0.5 minutes or more and, for example, 10 minutes or less, preferably 5 minutes or less. The stirring temperature is, for example, 50°C or more and, for example, 90°C or less.

[0283] Next, in the case where a portion of the monomer components was blended when the above-mentioned mixed liquid was prepared, the remainder of the above-mentioned monomer components is blended into this mixed liquid.

[0284] Next, a polymerization initiator is added to this mixture.

[0285] Examples of the polymerization initiator include azo compounds such as azobisisobutylamidine dihydrochloride and azobisisobutyronitrile; water-soluble polymerization initiators such as persulfates such as potassium persulfate and ammonium persulfate; and oil-soluble polymerization initiators such as organic peroxides such as benzoyl peroxide, di-t-butyl peroxide, lauryl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, t-butyl peroxypivalate and diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate. Preferably, the azo compounds are used. More preferably, the azobisisobutyronitrile is used.

[0286] The mixing ratio of the polymerization initiator relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer component is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more and, for example, 10 parts by mass or less.

[0287] If necessary, a chain transfer agent can be added to this mixture.

[0288] Examples of the chain transfer agent include mercaptan group-containing compounds such as lauryl mercaptan, thioglycol, and thioglycerol (particularly alkyl mercaptans (e.g., having 1 to 30 carbon atoms)), inorganic salts such as sodium hypophosphite and sodium hydrogen sulfite, and preferably lauryl mercaptan.

[0289] The mixing ratio of the chain transfer agent relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer component is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more and, for example, 10 parts by mass or less.

[0290] Then, this mixture is heated to polymerize the monomer components.

[0291] The heating conditions are such that the heating temperature is, for example, 40° C. or higher and, for example, 80° C. or lower, and the heating time is, for example, 1 hour or higher and, for example, 6 hours or lower.

[0292] As a result, an emulsion of the non-fluorinated water-repellent compound is obtained, and a dispersion of a water repellent composition containing the polyurethane resin compound, the non-fluorinated water-repellent compound (emulsion), the surfactant, and the liquid medium is obtained.

[0293] In the first method, the monomer components constituting the non-fluorinated water-repellent compound are polymerized in the presence of a polyurethane resin compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium. Alternatively, the polyurethane resin compound can be blended after polymerizing the monomer components in the presence of a surfactant and a liquid medium (second method).

[0294] Alternatively, a monomer component may first be polymerized to prepare a non-fluorinated water-repellent compound, and then the obtained non-fluorinated water-repellent compound may be blended with a polyurethane resin compound, a surfactant and a liquid medium (third method).

[0295] In the third method, examples of the polymerization method include solution polymerization, suspension polymerization, and emulsion polymerization.

[0296] When solution polymerization is employed, the monomer components are dissolved in an organic solvent in the presence of the above-mentioned polymerization initiator, and the mixture is heated with stirring after replacing with nitrogen.

[0297] The mixing ratio of the polymerization initiator relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer component is, for example, 0.01 parts by mass or more and, for example, 20 parts by mass or less, preferably 10 parts by mass or less.

[0298] The organic solvent may be the same as those listed above for the liquid medium.

[0299] The mixing ratio of the organic solvent relative to 100 parts by mass of the monomer component is, for example, 10 parts by mass or more, preferably 50 parts by mass or more, and for example, 2000 parts by mass or less, preferably 1000 parts by mass or less.

[0300] As for the heating conditions, the heating temperature is, for example, 30° C. or more and, for example, 120° C. or less, and the heating time is, for example, 1 hour or more and, for example, 10 hours or less.

[0301] This results in a fluorine-free water-repellent compound.

[0302] Then, after producing the non-fluorine-containing water-repellent compound by solution polymerization, the organic solvent is removed, and the non-fluorine-containing water-repellent compound is blended with a surfactant and a liquid medium together with the polyurethane resin compound, thereby preparing an emulsion of the non-fluorine-containing water-repellent compound.

[0303] Of the above-mentioned methods for producing the water repellent composition, the first method is preferably adopted from the viewpoint of improving the water repellency of the water repellent-treated object treated with the water repellent composition.

[0304] This water repellent composition contains a polyurethane resin compound including at least one selected from the group consisting of a first polyurethane resin compound, a second polyurethane resin compound, and a third polyurethane resin compound, and a non-fluorine water repellent compound.

[0305] Therefore, the water repellency of the water repellent treated object can be improved by treating it with the water repellent composition.

[0306] The water repellent composition can be used as a water repellent treatment liquid diluted with water (ion-exchanged water), for example.

[0307] By impregnating a textile product with such a water-repellent treatment liquid, water repellency can be imparted to the textile product.

[0308] In other words, the textile product is treated with the water repellent composition to make it water repellent.

[0309] Examples of fibers include natural fibers such as cotton or wool, chemical fibers such as viscose rayon and leocell, and synthetic fibers such as polyester, polyamide, acrylic, and polyurethane fibers. Textile products are products made from the above-mentioned fibers, and examples of such products include cloth (woven fabrics, knitted fabrics, and nonwoven fabrics).

[0310] This textile product has excellent water repellency since it has been treated with the water repellent composition.

[0311] In the above description, a textile product is treated to have water repellency. However, the material to be treated with the water repellent composition is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include paper, stone, glass, metal, cement, etc. EXAMPLES

In addition, unless otherwise specified in the following description, "parts" and "%" are based on mass. 1. Preparation of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative Synthesis Example 1 (Isocyanurate derivative of hexamethylene diisocyanate) In a reactor equipped with a thermometer, a stirrer, a nitrogen inlet tube, and a cooling tube, 500 parts by mass of 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI, manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, product name: Takenate 700), 0.25 parts by mass of 2,6-di(tert-butyl)-4-methylphenol (also known as dibutylhydroxytoluene, BHT, hindered phenol-based antioxidant), and 0.25 parts by mass of tetraphenyl dipropylene glycol diphosphite (organic phosphorous ester, cocatalyst) were mixed under a nitrogen atmosphere in a reactor equipped with a thermometer, a stirrer, a nitrogen inlet tube, and a cooling tube. Then, 10.7 parts by mass of 1,3-butanediol was added to the mixture, and nitrogen was introduced into the liquid phase for 1 hour. The mixture was then heated to 80°C and reacted for 3 hours, and then cooled to 60°C. Then, 0.2 parts by mass of trimethyl-N-2-hydroxypropylammonium 2-ethylhexanoate was added as an isocyanurate catalyst, and reacted for 1.5 hours. Then, 0.04 parts by mass of o-toluenesulfonamide was added to 100 parts by mass of HDI. Then, this reaction mixture was passed through a thin-film distillation apparatus (temperature 150°C, vacuum degree 93.3 Pa) and distilled until the amount of remaining HDI monomer was 0.5% or less, to obtain a first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative (isocyanurate derivative of hexamethylene diisocyanate). The obtained first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative had an isocyanate group content of 20.9% and an average number of isocyanate functional groups of 3.0. 2. Preparation of Polyurethane Resin Compound Production Example 1 (First Polyurethane Resin Compound) In a reactor equipped with a stirrer, a thermometer, a cooler, and a nitrogen gas inlet tube, 100.20 g of the first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative of Synthesis Example 1 as a first aliphatic polyisocyanate derivative, 67.60 g of Kalcol 8098 (stearyl alcohol, manufactured by Kao Corporation) as a first long-chain active hydrogen compound, and 22.30 g of oleic alcohol were mixed and reacted in a nitrogen atmosphere at 110°C for 4 hours until the concentration of isocyanate groups reached 3.67%.

[0313] Next, the reaction liquid was cooled to 80° C., and 9.90 g of N-methyldiethanolamine was added as a cationic active hydrogen compound, followed by reaction at 80° C. for 1 hour.

[0314] Next, 50.00 g of methyl ethyl ketone was added as a solvent, and the mixture was reacted at 80° C. until disappearance of the isocyanate groups was confirmed by infrared absorption spectroscopy.

[0315] Next, 57.69 g of methyl ether ketone was added to the reaction liquid, the temperature was raised to 80°C, and the reaction liquid was mixed until completely dissolved, and then cooled to 75°C.

[0316] Thereafter, 18.96 g of acetic acid was added as an acid compound to neutralize the mixture.

[0317] Next, while maintaining the reaction solution at 75°C, 800.0 g of ion-exchanged water heated to 70°C was gradually added thereto to emulsify (internal emulsification).

[0318] Next, the solvent was removed using an evaporator under reduced pressure with a water bath temperature of 60° C. until the solid content concentration reached 20% by mass or more.

[0319] Next, the solid content concentration excluding the acid compound (acetic acid) was adjusted to 20 mass % with ion-exchanged water, thereby obtaining an aqueous dispersion containing a first polyurethane resin compound.

[0320] Production Example 2 (Second Polyurethane Resin Compound) In a 500 mL four-neck flask equipped with a stirring rod, a thermometer, and a reflux tube, 116 g of sorbitan tristearate and 150 g of 4-methyl-2-pentanone (MIBK) were charged. Next, in order to remove excess water vapor from this mixture, the mixture was stirred while maintaining the temperature of the mixture at 70°C, refluxed for 1 hour, and then cooled to 50°C. Then, while maintaining stirring, 30 g of Desmodur N-100 (biuret derivative of hexamethylene diisocyanate, Covestro) was dropped into the mixture using a dropping funnel. After the dropwise addition, one drop of dibutyltin dilaurate was added as a catalyst and reacted at 80°C for 1 hour. Next, 25 g of sorbitan monostearate was added, and further reacted at 80°C for 4 hours.

[0321] Then, after cooling to 60°C, the reaction liquid was collected and slowly mixed with 60°C water containing an arbitrary amount of cationic emulsifier and polyoxyethylene alkyl ether. The mixture was stirred at 6000 rpm for 1 minute using a homomixer, and then emulsified and dispersed with ultrasound for 15 minutes. After that, the solvent (MIBK) was removed by a reduced pressure operation, and pure water was added to adjust the concentration, to obtain an aqueous dispersion containing a second polyurethane resin compound with a solid content concentration of 20%.

[0322] Production Example 3 (Third Polyurethane Resin Compound) 150g of methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) and 51g of stearyl alcohol were charged into a 500mL four-neck flask equipped with a stirring rod, a thermometer, and a reflux tube. Next, in order to remove excess water vapor from this mixture, the mixture was stirred while maintaining the temperature of the mixture at 70°C, refluxed for 1 hour, and then cooled to 50°C. Then, 30g of Desmodur N3200A (biuret derivative of hexamethylene diisocyanate, manufactured by Covestro) was added to the mixture, and the mixture was further reacted at 80°C for 4 hours.

[0323] After cooling to 60° C., the reaction liquid was collected and slowly mixed with water containing an arbitrary amount of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether at 60° C. The mixture was stirred at 6000 rpm for 1 minute with a homomixer, and then emulsified and dispersed with ultrasound for 15 minutes.

[0324] Next, the solvent (MEK) was removed by a reduced pressure operation, and then pure water was added to adjust the concentration, to obtain an aqueous dispersion containing a third polyurethane resin compound with a solid content concentration of 20%. 3. Preparation of a dispersion containing a non-fluorinated water-repellent compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium Production Example 4 A 500 ml plastic container was charged with 30 g of a water-soluble glycol solvent and 120 g of pure water as the liquid medium, 40 g of stearyl acrylate as the long-chain aliphatic hydrocarbon group-containing (meth)acrylate, 2 g of sorbitan fatty acid ester as the surfactant, and 2 g of a cationic emulsifier and 6 g of polyoxyethylene alkyl ether as the emulsifier, heated to 80°C, stirred at 2000 rpm for 1 minute with a homomixer, and then emulsified and dispersed with ultrasound for 15 minutes.

[0325] Next, this mixture was transferred to a 500 ml autoclave, and after nitrogen replacement, 0.2 g of lauryl mercaptan as a chain transfer agent and 20 g of vinyl chloride as a non-fluorine copolymerizable monomer were charged. Furthermore, 1 g of an azo group-containing water-soluble initiator was added as a polymerization initiator, and the temperature was raised to 60°C, and the mixture was reacted for 4 hours to obtain an aqueous dispersion of a polymer (non-fluorine water-repellent compound). This dispersion was further diluted with pure water to prepare an aqueous dispersion of a non-fluorine water-repellent compound with a solid content concentration of 30% (more specifically, a dispersion containing a non-fluorine water-repellent compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium).

[0326] Manufacturing Examples 5 to 7 A dispersion containing a non-fluorinated water-repellent compound, a surfactant, and a liquid medium was prepared in the same manner as in Production Example 4, except that the blending recipe was changed according to Table 1. 4. Preparation of Silicone Polymer Production Example 8 A 200 mL four-neck flask equipped with a stirrer, thermometer, and reflux condenser was charged with 12 g of methyl hydrogen silicone oil (SiH:SiCH3 molar ratio measured by 1H NMR = 50:50) and 0.02 g of platinum catalyst. Next, 36 g of 1-hexacosene was charged into the dropping funnel, and 1-hexacosene was added dropwise from the dropping funnel while maintaining the temperature at 70°C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the reaction was continued for another 3 hours at 70°C. It was confirmed by infrared spectroscopy (IR) that the SiH peak had disappeared, and 47 g of solid silicone polymer was obtained.

This dispersion was transferred to a 500ml autoclave, and after nitrogen replacement, 0.17g of lauryl mercaptan as a chain transfer agent and 17g of vinyl chloride as a non-fluorine copolymerizable monomer were charged. Furthermore, 0.85 g of an azo group-containing water-soluble initiator was added as a polymerization initiator, and the mixture was heated to 60° C. and reacted for 4 hours to prepare an aqueous dispersion of a water repellent composition. Pure water was then added to prepare an aqueous dispersion of a water repellent composition with a solid content of 30%.
