5 Claims. (Cl. 8116.3)

where X is a member selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur, R and R are selected from the group consisting of lower alkyl, phenyl and substituted lower alkyl in which the substituting groups are cyano, carboxy, carbalkoxy or carboxamide, R and R are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl; to their use as creaseproofing agents for cellulosic textile materials and to the cellulosic textile materials so treated or finished therewith.

As is well known, many thermosetting resinous textile finishing agents have been employed on cellulosic textile materials in order to impart crease resistance and dimensional stability thereto. These materials include the reaction products of formaldehyde with various amides such as urea, thiourea, ethylene urea, melamines, guanamines, and the like, whereby compounds containing methylol groups (CH OH) are produced. The methylol groups on these compounds provide a means for attachment of the resinous finishing agents with the cellulose molecule.

and when two or more methylol groups are present, crosslinking between chains of cellulose is possible whereby the crease resistance and dimensional stability are imparted to such materials.

Many of these resins referred to above, sometimes identified as aminoplast resins, are not without certain 1imi-tations and drawbacks. Thus, many of these resinous materials contain free formaldehyde during their preparation, storage, usage in textile finishing and in the subsequent storage of finished goods. In addition to the odor problems created by the presence of free formaldehyde, the dermatitic effect of free formaldehyde is also a well known problem.

Additionally, resins such as those identified above, when scorched, as when heated with an iron subsequent to chlorine bleaching, for example, chlorine bleaching of the type normally encountered in typical home laundering operations, tend to lose a substantial percentage of their initial tensile strength. This is presumably because of the liberation of retained chlorine and the degradive effect on tensile strength produced by the hydrochloric acid formed therefrom.

Additionally, aminoplast resins are normally manufactured and shipped as aqueous solutions, usually of from between 40 and 70% solids, requiring the shipment of 3,260,565 Patented July 12, 1966 substantial amounts of water, frequently over substantial distances. Further, the aminoplast resins of the prior art can, in some instances, cause significant damage to direct dyes on cellulosic fabrics which normally is the result of the presence of free formaldehyde in the resinous products.

Accordingly, it is an object of this invention to provide a novel class of creaseproofing agents or textile finishing agents capable of imparting wrinkle resistance which may be characterized as being completely free of formaldehyde. The absence of free formaldehyde in the textile finishing agents of this invention eliminates the problems caused by formaldehyde, both as to odor and dermatitis, in the manufacture, storage, use and storage of fabrics finished therewith.

It is a further object of this invention to provide a novel class of textile finishing agents which are easily purified to crystalline solids and mobile liquids and can therefore be easily transported, thus minimizing or reducing the cost of transporting these agents.

It is a further object of this invention to provide a novel class of textile finishing agents which produce less damage to direct dyes on cellulosic fabrics than is usual with formaldehyde-containing aminoplasts.

It is a special object of this invention to provide a novel class of textile finishing agents which surprisingly produce minimal losses in tensile strength, even when compared with closely related homologous compounds.

These and other objects and advantages of this invention will become more apparent from the detailed description thereof set forth hereinbelow.

In accordance with the present invention, novel compounds of the following general formula are prepared:

where X is a member selected from the group consisting of oxygen and sulfur, R and R are selected from the group consisting of lower alkyl, phenyl and substituted lower alkyl and particularly substituted lower alkyls,

wherein the substituting group is selected from the group consisting of cyano, carboxy, 'carbalkoxy and carboxamide, and R and R are selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl.

By lower alkyl, as that term is employed herein, it is intended to include alkyl groups containing from 1 to 7 carbon atoms and preferably from 1 to 4 carbon atoms, which groups may be normal or branch chained. As examples of unsubstituted lower alkyl radicals, the following are illustrative: methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tertiary butyl, n-pentyl and the like. Lower alkyl radicals substituted by cyano, carboxy, carbalkoxy or carboxamide are typified by such radicals as and the like.

Compounds of the general formula where the R and R are hydrogen may be prepared by reacting a urea or thiourea with glyoxal under such conditions that both carbonyl groups of the dialdehyde react with amide groups of the urea or thiourea.

The ureas and thioureas which may be used include urea, l-methylurea, l-ethylurea, l-n-propylurea, 1 nbutylurea, 1,3 dimethylurea, 1,3 diethylurea, 1,3 1 di-npropylurea, 1,3-di-n-butylurea, 1 methyl 3 ethylurea, 1,3 di sec butylurea, l-allylurea, 1,3-diallylurea, 1- phenylurea, 1,3-diphenylurea, 1,3-dibenzylurea, etc., and the corresponding thioureas. Furthermore, the substituted ureas may have substituents on the alkyl or aryl groups which are non-reactive under the conditions of the reaction.

Where, in the compounds of the general formula, R and R are lower alkyl, these are made by reacting the corresponding compounds where R and R are hydrogen, with appropriate lower alkyl alcohols under acidic conditions. Any of the strong acids normally employed in the alkylation or etherification of amide-formaldehyde condensates or aminoplast resins may be employed. Such acids include the strong mineral acids, such as sulfuric, hydrochloric, nitric and the like. Normally, sufficient acid is employed to produce a pH below 4. Suitable alcohols may be any of the lower alcohols referred to above and may include methanol, ethanol, the propanols, the butanols and the like. Alkylation is normally carried out at a temperature of between about and about 50 C. although preferably at between about C. and about 30 C. At temperatures less than 0, the reaction is normally too slow and at temperatures above 50 C. the danger of polymerization is present. The time required for the reaction is in general inversely proportional to the temperature and within the preferred temperature range of from 15 C. to 30 C. times of from 10 to about 2 minutes will normally be employed. For alkylation it is preferred that at least 2 moles of alcohol be employed if full alkylation is to be effected and substantial excesses are desirable in that they function as solvent for the reaction.

The ureas or thioureas and glyoxal are normally reacted in stoichiornetric amounts, although slight excesses of either of the reactants may be employed. This reaction may be carried out at room temperature (-30 C.) although temperatures from between 0 and 100 C., and preferably 15-70 C., may be employed. The reaction may be carried out at atmospheric pressure, subatmospheric pressure or superatmospheric pressure for times suflicient to complete the reaction, which may be determined by free glyoxal determination.

Those compounds of the general formula in which R and R are lower alkyl substituted by cyano, carboxy, carbalkoxy or carboxamide groups are typified by compounds in which R and R radicals are as identified above, i.e., -CH CH CN, --CH CH COOH, and the like. These compounds may be prepared by reacting a corresponding compound of the general formula where R and R are hydrogens, with an a,flunsaturated aliphatic nitrile, acid, ester or amide such as acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, acrylamide, methacrylic acid, ethyl acrylate, and the like. In this reaction it is advantageous for the R and R to be lower alkyl groups. Such reactions are preferably carried out at a temperature of from 45 to 65 C., though temperatures down to room temperature (-30 C.) and lower may be employed with longer reaction times required. Temperatures higher than 65 C. may be employed but polymerization may occur at higher temperatures. Such reactions are usually carried out in an inert solvent and preferably an inert polar solvent such as pyridine, quinoline, dioxane and the like.

As noted above, the principal end use contemplated for the novel agents of this invention is as textile finishing agents to impart wrinkle resistance and dimensional stability to cellulose containing textile materials.

Quite surprisingly, the compounds of this invention have demonstrated themselves to be dramatically superior to seemingly closely related homologous compounds, i.e., 4,5-dihydroxy 2 imidazolidinone (general formula hereinabove wherein all Rs are hydrogen) in chlorine retention and the damage to textile materials resulting therefrom. This aspect of the present invention will be demonstrated more fully hereinafter.

By the term cellulose textile material, as that term and similar terms are employed herein, it is meant fibers, yarns, filaments, formed fabrics, whether woven or nonwoven, felted or otherwise formed, containing at least 50% of cellulose fiber prepared from cotton, rayon, linen, flax and other cellulosic materials. These cellulosic materials may be employed in combination with other noncellulosic materials, as for example, they may be blended with other natural or synthetic fibers, for example, wool, nylon, acrylic fibers, polyester fibers and the like. The compounds or textile finishing agents of this invention may be applied to cellulosic textile materials by any conventional techniques, such as immersion, padding, spraying and the like, followed where necessary by squeezing, hydroextraction or similar processes in order to affix the desired amount of solids on the fabric.

The method of application should be such that from about 1 to about 25 and in some instances higher amounts of the product of this invention based on the weight of the fabric are deposited thereon. Within certain limits, the amount of agent applied depends upon the particular type of fabric being treated. Thus, when treating fabric consisting of fibrous .cellulosic materials, the concentration of the order of about 1 to 25 and more particularly from 3 to 10% solids, based on the dry weight of the fabric, may be employed.

The catalyst or accelerator employed is an acidic type catalyst and may be a free acid, acid salt, alkanolamine salt, metal salt and the like of the type well known to those in the textile finishing art. The concentration of catalyst employed may range from about 0.1 to about 25% or higher, based on the weight of the solids, depending upon the particular catalyst type employed. Thus, for example, from between about 0.1% and about 10% of a free acid such as phosphoric, tartaric, oxalic or the like may be employed, while in the case of ammonium chloride amounts of from between 0.5 and about 10% are used. In the case of amine salts including alkanola'mine salts, such as diethanolamine hydrochloride, from about 1 to about 10% are most useful, while with respect to salts such as magnesium chloride amounts of from between about 5 and 25% have been successfully employed. In addition to magnesium chloride, zinc nitrate, aluminum chloride and other known conventional metal salts are normally employed in amounts corresponding to between 5 and 25 based on the weight of the solids.

Following the application of the agent and curing catalyst to the textile fabric, the material is subjected to drying and curing operations in order to effect wrinkle resistance and shrinkage control thereon. The drying and curing operation may be carried out in a single step or in separate steps. The temperatures at which the drying and curing operations are effected vary widely and are influenced to some extent by the type of catalyst employed. Normally, the range of temperature extends from about F. to about 450 F. or even higher. Generally speaking, the time of the drying and/ or curing operation is inversely proportional to the temperature employed and of course is influenced by whether or not separate or combined drying and curing steps are employed. Generally,

when drying and curing is carried out in a combined -op eration a time of from about one minute to about 10 minutes may be employed at temperatures from 450 to 250 B, respectively. When the fabric has been dried preliminary to curing, curing times of the order of 5 minutes to about /4 minute at a temperature of from between 250 and 450 F., respectively have been successfully employed.

In order that the present invention may be more fully understood, the following examples are given primarily by way of illustration. No specific details or enumerations contained therein should be construed aslimitations on the present invention except insofar as they appear in the appended claims. All parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise specifically designated.

The textile finishing agents of this invention may be employed alone or in combination with other creaseproofing resins and in particular with aminoplast textile finishing resins, as for example, the melamine-formaldehyde resins, guanamine-formaldehyde resins, and their alkylated o-r etherified derivatives. Thus, for example, the agents of this invention may be combined with the melamine-formaldehyde resins which are described in U.S. Patent No. 2,197,357 and U.S. Patent No. 2,529,856.

Suitable guanamine-fo'rmaldehyde condensates of the type contemplated for use with the agents of this invention are those described in U.S. Patent No. 2,887,409. Additionally, the agents of this invention may be combined or employed with urons such as are described in U.S. Patent No. 2,373,135 and various polyepoxide resins having epoxy equivalents greater than 1, as for example those described in U.S. Patent No. 2,730,- 427, U.S. Patent No. 2,752,269 and U.S. Patent No. 2,794,754. Further, the textile finishing agents of this invention may be employed with other agents or auxiliarics, as for example, softeners, lubricants, odorants and the like.
