Abstract

Abstract The method involves treating a cellulose fiber-containing structure with an alkaline agent, coating the structure with an acid chloride having the following formula: <IMAGE> (wherein X is -H, -NO2, -CH3 or -SO2Cl) and subjecting the resultant structure to heat treatment to cause chemical modification. The acid chloride is employed in the form of an emulsion in water. The emulsion may also contain a thickener such as a natural sizing agent or a dye. The method provides a more dyeable cellulose fiber-containing structure.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of modifying the dye affinity of a cellulose fiber-containing structure, comprising the steps of treating a cellulose fiber structure or a mixed structure of a cellulose fiber and a synthetic fiber with an alkaline agent, coating the structure with an aqueous emulsion of an acid chloride having the formula: ##STR5## (wherein X is --H, --NO 2 , --CH 3 or --SO 2 Cl) and subjecting the coated structure to heat treatment prior to drying of the emulsion to cause chemical modification.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 83 words
A method of modifying the dye affinity of a cellulose fiber-containing structure, comprising the steps of treating a cellulose fiber structure or a mixed structure of a cellulose fiber and a synthetic fiber with an alkaline agent, coating the structure with an aqueous emulsion of an acid chloride having the formula: ##STR5## (wherein X is --H, --NO 2 , --CH 3 or --SO 2 Cl) and subjecting the coated structure to heat treatment prior to drying of the emulsion to cause chemical modification.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the heat treatment is carried out by microwave heating.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 18 words
A method according to claim 2, wherein the microwave heating is carried out for 5 to 120 seconds.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the emulsion contains the acid chloride, a disperse dye and a thickener.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
A method according to claim 4, wherein the thickener is an animal, vegetable or mineral sizing agent.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 25 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein the emulsion contains the acid chloride, a vegetable natural sizing agent, bentonite and a nonionic surface active agent.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 34 words
A method according to any one of claims 1 to 3 and 6, wherein treatment with a resin capable of being dyed with a disperse dye is further carried out after the chemical modification.
Claim 9
Independent Claim 31 words
A method according to any one of claims 1 to 3 and 6, wherein treatment with a fiber crosslinking agent and a crosslinking catalyst is carried out after the chemical modification.
Claim 10
Independent Claim 47 words
A method according to any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein the fiber structure is partially chemically modified and subjected to heat treatment with a 40 to 75% sulfuric acid solution, whereby the chemically unmodified portion thereof is dissolved substantially completely to give a transparent pattern.
