Abstract:
Adding to a laundry detergent a resole condensation polymer prepared by reacting bis(hydroxyphenyl)sulfone with formaldehyde in the presence of a base thereby preventing or suppressing dye-transfer and dye-bleeding during laundering of nylon, rayon, cotton, acetate, or wool fabrics is disclosed.
Abstract:
This invention provides a process for preventing dye from depositing onto fabric, and fabric finishing compositions useful in the dye deposition inhibiting process of this invention. Specifically, a process is provided where 1) an aqueous bath is formed comprising a) water, b) dyed fabric, and c) a dye deposition inhibiting agent, 2) the dyed fabric is treated in the aqueous bath and the fabric releases a portion of the dye from the dyed fabric into the bath, and 3) the dye inhibiting agent is maintained in contact with the dyed fabric for the duration of the treating step. The dye deposition inhibiting agent is added to the process as a fabric finishing composition comprised of at least 0.1 wt % dye deposition inhibiting agent.

Abstract:
Diallylamine compounds may be polymerized to water-soluble, linear, high-molecular weight polymers having low residual monomer content by the use of cationic azo initiators and phosphorous acid or a derivative thereof as regulator. The polymers are useful as pre- or after-treatment agents for anionic dyeings on textile substrates.
Abstract:
Cationic fixing agents based on the reaction products of(a) a monofunctional or polyfunctional amine having one or more primary and/or secondary and/or tertiary amino groups and(b) cyanamide, dicyandiamide, guanidine or bisguanidinegive improved results when the reaction takes place in the presence of a catalyst (K) selected from metals, metal salts and heterocyclic nitrogen-containing organic bases, particularly zinc chloride.
Abstract:
Textile materials of natural polyamides or nylons, dyed with a dye containing acid groups, are after-treated with a dilute aqueous solution of a cationic condensate which is obtained by reaction of (a) piperazine or a derivative of piperazine with (b) a bifunctional crosslinking agent, such as an epihalohydrin, in a molar ratio of from 1:0.5 to 1:1.1, and quaternization of the condensate with benzyl chloride, from 0.15 to 1.0 mole of benzyl chloride being employed per equivalent of nitrogen in the component (a) during the quaternization. This after-treatment improves the wetfastness of the dye.
