Abstract
Abstract PCT No. PCT/AU83/00179 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 7, 1984 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 7, 1984 PCT Filed Dec. 6, 1983 PCT Pub. No. WO84/02365 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 21, 1984.A method for protecting synthetic and natural fibres against phototendering. The method comprises treating the fibres with a substituted benzotriazolesulfonate of the following formula: <IMAGE> wherein (I) R1 is hydrogen or halogen, R2 is hydrogen or alkyl, R3 is hydrogen or hydroxy, R4 is -SO3X where X is hydrogen or an alkali metal, and R5 is hydrogen, with the proviso that R2 is not methyl when R1 and R3 are hydrogen; or (II) R1, R3 and R4 are hydrogen, R2 is -SO3X where X is hydrogen or an alkali metal, and R5 is -OR6 where R6 is hydrogen or alkyl; or (III) R1 is hydrogen or halogen, R2 is -SO3X where X is hydrogen or an alkali metal, R3 and R5 are hydrogen, and R4 is hydrogen, alkyl or benzyl; or (IV) R1 is -SO3X where X is hydrogen or an alkali metal, R2 is alkyl, R3 and R5 are hydrogen, and R4 is hydrogen or alkyl; under acidic conditions. The method is particularly suitable for treating wool, silk and nylon fibres, including blends thereof.
