Levelling agent
Levelness
Unlevelness
Unlevelness
Level dyeing problems can be divided into two broad categories:1 ) Gross unlevelnesGross unlevelnesss::
- Unlevelness is primarily related to the dyeing equipment or processequipment or process
- Substrate is often uniform in both chemically and physically properties.
2) Localised unlevelnesLocalised unlevelnesss::- Related to physical and/or chemical nonuniformity of substrate
- Examples: Barriness/Nylon or polyesterSkitteriness/Wool
Level dyeing
There are also two fundamental mechanisms that can contribute to a level dyeing:
1) Control of rate of exhaustion of dye so that it is takenup evenlyup evenly
2) Migration of dye after initially unlevel sorption on the fiber.
Either or both of these mechanisms may operate to a greater or lesser extent in a given dye–fiber system
Main mechanisms of levellingagents
� Nonionic agents � Usually form water-soluble complexes with the dye,
some degree of solubilisation being involved
� Ionic agents � Dye-substantive
� Form complexes with the dye and there is competition between the levelling agent and the fibre for the dye
� Fibre-substantive� competition between levelling agent and the dye for the fibre
Levelling agent types and their uses
Levelling agent for acid dyes
� Anionic levelling agent
� Cationic levelling agent
Schematic representation of solubilised acid dye-agent complex
Levelling agent for disperse dyes
� Non-ionic levelling agent tend to be separated at high temperature but can increase dyes solubilisation (Low cloud point)
� Anionic levelling agent can increase the cloud point of nonionic agentnonionic agent
� Should synergistic mixing together� 7-10% of B in A can increase cloud point of A alone
(105oC) to 150oC� Fully effective at pH >7 (Carefully selection of dyes)
(A) fatty acid ethoxylate (B) sodiumdodecylbenzenesulphonate
Levelling agent for disperse dye
� Modified nonionic (or Modified anionic, Weakly anionic)� Phosphate ester ethoxylation
� High temperature stability� Protect hardness and trace metal ion� Stabilise under high concentration of electrolyte� Fully effective at pH 4-5 (pH of disperse dyeing)
Levelling agent for disperse dye
� Oligo-soaps or Ethoxylated multi-ester compounds.
� More stable dye dispersion at high temperatureSolubilisation take place at a lower temperature� Solubilisation take place at a lower temperature
� Dyeing rate at lower temp. is much slower� Solubilisation of oligomer and acrylic size� Low foaming
Defoaming agent
Foam breaking mechanism
� Commonly used agents are insoluble oils, polydimethylsiloxanes and other silicones, certain alcohols, stearates and glycols.
� Used to prevent formation of foam or is added � Used to prevent formation of foam or is added to break a foam already formed.
Typical defoaming agent
� Oil based defoamers� Relatively poor foam control� Some tend to leave deposit on machine� Example is propylene-1,2-glycol mononeodecanoate� Example is propylene-1,2-glycol mononeodecanoate
Typical defoaming agent
� Silicone based defoamers� High efficiency for controlling the foam� If the emulsion use not suitable emulsifier,
Silicone spot is usually occur.Silicone spot is usually occur.� Example is ethoxylated polydimethyl siloxane
Typical defoaming agent
� EO/PO based defoamers� Contain polyethylene glycol and polypropylene
glycol copolymers. � Have good dispersing properties Have good dispersing properties � Often well suited when deposit problems are an
issue.
Non-surfactant auxiliaries
� Electrolyte� pH control� Enzyme� Reducing and Oxidising agents� Reducing and Oxidising agents� Sequestering agent � Thickener and Migration inhibitor� Hydrotropic agents� Fastness improving agents� Optical brightening agents
Electrolyte
Electrolyte
� NaCl and Na2SO4 are commonly used. � Increase the adsorption of Reactive and Direct
dyes on cellulose. (Also for leuco Vat and Sulphur dyes)Sulphur dyes)
� Promote aggregation of soluble dyes.� NaCl gave stronger effect than Na2SO4.
Electrolyte effect on cellulosic dyeing system
� Equilibrium adsorption isotherm at 34oC and rate of dyeing at 40oC for CI Direct Blue 1 on viscose in the presence of electrolyte singly and binary mixture
Electrolyte effect on cellulosic dyeing system� Fixation of CI Reactive Red 180 with various concentrations of Group IA chlorides
Electrolyte effect on cellulosic dyeing system� Fixation of CI Reactive Red 180 with various concentrations of potassium salts of
dicarboxylic acids
K oxalate
K tartrate
K phthalate
Electrolyte on ionic dyeing system
� Decrease the adsorption of Anionic dyes on PA and WO.
Kosmotropes increase hydrophobic � increase dye adsorptionChaotropes decrease hydrophobic � decrease dye adsorption
NaCl gave more decreasing the adsorption of anionic dyes on PA than Na2SO4 !!
Electrolyte : Ecological approach
� High salt loading is indesirable in waste-water.� Na2SO4 causes corrosion of concrete pipes.
pH control
pH control : 3 different techniques
1. Maintenance of a high degree of acidity or alkalinity
2. Control pH within fairly narrow tolerance mainly in the near-neutral region (pH 4-9)mainly in the near-neutral region (pH 4-9)
3. Gradual shifting of the pH as dyeing proceeds
pH control: Maintenance of a high degree of acidity or alkalinity
� Easy to control � Acidic region use in application of levelling acid
and 1:1 metal complex dyes to PA and WO. � Alkaline region use in reactive, sulphur or vat� Alkaline region use in reactive, sulphur or vat
dyes to CEL.
