C08K 53492
C08F 800
C08G 1832

US Classification:

524100

Filed:

Oct 19, 1990

Appl. No.:

7/600639

Inventors:

John B. Hines - Spartanburg SC
Carey N. Barry - Spartanburg SC

Assignee:

Milliken Research Corporation - Spartanburg SC

International Classification:

D06P 513

US Classification:

8403

Abstract:

Azo chromophores having polyoxyalkylene substituents are linked together by a covalent bond or by an intervening connecting group to form dimers or trimers. The polyoxyalkylene substituents are straight or branched chain polymers primarily of ethylene oxide which make the dimer and trimer colorants useful as fugitive tints.

Assignee:

Milliken Research Corporation - Spartanburg SC

International Classification:

D06P 513

US Classification:

8403

Abstract:

A method is provided for temporary coloration of textile materials which comprises applying to said textile materials an amine-reducible tint in an amount sufficient to provide coloration to said textile material, said tint being characterized by the formula: R{A[alkeneoxy constituent). sub. n X]. sub. m }. sub. p where RA is the organic, easily reducible dyestuff radical, A is a linking moiety in said organic, easily reducible dyestuff radical selected from the group consisting of --N--, --O--, --S--, or --CO. sub. 2 --, the alkenyl moiety of said alkyleneoxy constituent contains from 2 to about 4 carbon atoms, n is an integer of from 2 to about 300, m is 1 when A is --O--, --S--, --CO. sub. 2 -- and 2 when A is --N--, p is an integer of from 1 to 5, and X is a member of the group consisting of --H--, alkyl, -alkylcarboxylate, or -arylcarboxylate; and contacting said amine-reducible tint with an amine compound in an amount sufficient to reduce said tint whereby said coloration of said textile material is removed.

Abstract:

Colorants and compositions useful as a fugitive or permanent colorant for a variety of substrates, or as intermediates for their manufacture, and having one or more improved properties of enhanced aqueous washability, compatibility with and non-extractibility from thermoplastic resins, or reactivity with resins having reactive functionality, said composition having the formula C(Z). sub. 1-8 wherein: C is the residue of a reactant having from 1-8 nucleophilic site residues to which the Z moieties are attached; said Z moieties containing at least about 60 weight percent of poly(oxyalkylene) which is comprised of (a) at least one glycidol residue segment of 2-6 glycidol residues attached to a nucleophilic site of C, wherein said poly(oxyalkylene) contains a total of from 2-20 glycidol residues, (b) and wherein said poly(oxyalkylene) further contains the residues of one or more other epoxide reactants of ethylene oxide (EO), propylene oxide (PO), or butylene oxide (BO), or mixtures thereof, wherein said poly(oxyalkylene) contains a total of from about 10 to about 600 of said EO, PO or BO residues, or mixtures thereof, at least about 75 mole percent of which are EO residues, (c) and with the provisions that the ratio of the total of --0--PO-- and --O--BO-- linkages of all glycidol residues to the total of all functional oxy linkages of said glycidol residues is less than one, and the molar ratio of EO residues to glycidol residues is from 4 to 75.

US Patent:

Filed:

Oct 1, 1990

Appl. No.:

7/591343

Inventors:

John B. Hines - Spartanburg SC
John G. Lever - Spartanburg SC

International Classification:

D06P 513

US Classification:

8403

Abstract:

An article may be temporarily colored by application of an aqueous solution of a polyoxyalkylene substituted chromophore characterized by a N. dbd. pair with an electron withdrawing group bonded to one element of the pair and an electron donating group bonded to the opposite element. The polyoxyalkylene substituent imparts solubility to the colorant and bulk to prevent penetration into interstices in the article being colored. The colorant may be subsequently decolorized in hydrolysis when an aqueous acid solution is applied to the colorant.
