Structure—reactivity studies of a new polyfunctional disulphide bis(ES-MCT/SES) reactive dye applied to silk

A new polyfunctional reactive dye containing disulphidebis(ethylsulphone-monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone) reactive system has been synthesised and applied to silk. High exhaustion/fixation results have been achieved at 90 °C and pH 9. The vinylsulphone precursor of the disulphidebis(ethylsulphone) group combined with a sulphatoethylsulphone/monochlorotriazine reactive system confers a relatively high fixation efficiency for this type of polyfunctional reactive dye when compared with that of a conventional bifunctional reactive dye containing the sulphatoethylsulphone/monochlorotriazine reactive system. The results also indicate that high fastness properties were obtained for the reactive dyes under investigation.     

Synthesis and application of a polyfunctional bis(monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone) reactive dye

The behavior of a polyfunctional reactive dye containing bis(monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone) reactive system on silk has been investigated. The twinned monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone reactive system confers a relatively high fixation efficiency of this type of polyfunctional reactive dye even at low salt and/or temperature conditions when compared with that of the conventional bifunctional reactive dye containing one monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone reactive system. The results also indicate that the fastness properties are approximately the same for both the reactive dyes under investigation.     

Dyeing of nylon 6 fabric with a new bifunctional vinyl sulphone reactive disperse dye

A new bifunctional reactive disperse dye containing a temporarily anionic sulphatoethylsulphone and a nonionic disulphide bis(ethylsulphone) groups was synthesised and applied to nylon 6 fabric by the exhaust dyeing at a variety of pH and temperature conditions. A monofunctional reactive disperse dye containing only nonionic disulphide bis(ethylsulphone) group was also synthesised and its dyeing behaviour was compared with the bifunctional dye. The bifunctional reactive disperse dye exhibited high exhaustion and fixation values at pH 6 and 120 °C. The results also indicate that the combination of temporarily anionic and nonionic reactive groups of the bifunctional dye provided great enhancement in dyeing performance compared to that of the monofunctional dye. The dyes also showed very good levelling and fastness properties on nylon 6 fabric.     

Reactive dyeing systems for wool fibres based on hetero-bifunctional reactive dyes. Part 2: Investigation of dyeing properties during the dyeing cycle

The dyeing behaviour during the dyeing cycle of a Sumifix Supra dye and some other commercial reactive dyes under various dyebath pH conditions was investigated. Studies of the dyeing of wool serge fabric indicated that the diffusion properties of hetero-bifunctional Sumifix Supra dyes generally lie between those of b-sulphatoethylsulphone (Remazol dyes) and monochlorotriazine (Procion H dyes).     

Dyeing properties of soya fibre with reactive and acid dyes

In order to determine the most suitable type of dye for soya bean fibre, the dyeing properties of three acid dyes and three bifunctional reactive dyes were compared. Additionally, the effect of a range of reactive groups on dyeing performance were studied, including difluorochloropyrimidine, monofluorotriazine, monochlorotriazine and β-sulphatoethyl sulphone, and of these the first was found to perform best. Irrespective of reactive group, however, the main factor affecting build-up was found to be the substantivity of the dye for soya fibre. The monofunctional reactive dyes in general were found to exhibit good wash fastness.     

Levelling properties of some reactive dyes on cellulose

The levelling properties of nine reactive dyes containing one or two sulphatoethylsulphone reactive groups or one sulphatoethylsulphone and one monochlorotriazine reactive groups have been investigated. A novel test method specifically applicable to reactive dyes has been used in order to evaluate levelling. Undyed and dyed cotton samples were simultaneously dyed in the same bath and the fractions of the additional dye fixed on each of the cotton samples were determined afterwards. A dye distribution index has been proposed that predicts reactive dye levelling according to whether the index exceeds 50% or not. The index was found to depend not only on the nature of the dyes, but also on the concentration of the dye fixed on cotton, the dyeing temperature and the salt concentration in the dye liquor. In redyeing tests the degrees of primary and secondary exhaustion and of dye fixation were measured as a function of concentration of the dye fixed on cotton. Finally a satisfactory correlation was found between the index and the classical inorganicity/organicity value of the dyes. The results also suggest that the levelling properties depend on the degree of dye aggregation.     

Neutral-fixing reactive dyes for cotton.

Research into a new type of reactive dye based on the monochlorotriazine group is described. Reactive dyes of the 3-carboxypyridino-1,3,5-triazine type have been investigated, with a nicotinic acid leaving group, having high stability and fixation efficiency. Dyes of this type react with cellulose in a neutral bath, so widening the scope of reactive dyeing. A classification scheme for reactive dyes is outlined.

Fixation of reactive dyes using radio-frequency energy

Radio-frequency (r.f.) energy has been used to increase the fixation rate of reactive dyes on cotton fabric in pad-batch dyeing. A parallel-plate r.f. applicator was used to heat batches of fabric containing reactive dye formulations. The time required for fixation of the dyes was reduced from several hours to a few minutes by heating the fabric in the radio-frequency field. Reactive dyes incorporating three different types of reactive groups, vinylsulphone, nicotinic acid, and mixed vinylsulphone/ monochlorotriazine were studied and found to be applicable using the hot pad-batch method. The colour yield and wash fastness of dyeings with the vinylsulphone/monochlorotriazine bifunctional dyes using r.f.-assisted fixation was equal or superior to those of dyeings performed by conventional cold pad-batch dyeing methods.     

Dyeing of nylon 6 and silk fabrics with a model disulphide bis(ethylsulphone) reactive disperse dye

The synthesis of a new reactive disperse dye containing the disulphide bis(ethylsulphone) group is described. The dye has been applied to nylon 6 and silk fabrics at a variety of pH and temperature conditions. Optimum dye exhaustion and fixation were achieved at pH 8 and 130 °C. The results of dyeings on both substrates indicate that the model disulphide bis(ethylsulphone) reactive disperse dye shows a higher degree of exhaustion and fixation on silk than on nylon 6. The fastness and levelling properties on both fabrics were good.

Removal of reactive dyes from wastewater using Fe(III) coagulant

The coagulation-flocculation process was employed for the treatment of reactive dye wastewaters, with ferric chloride hexahydrate employed as the coagulant. The process was found to be very effective with a more than 99.5% colour removal. Typical representatives of monochlorotriazine reactive dyes, with azo and anthraquinone chromophores, were CI Reactive Red 45 and CI Reactive Green 8, which were chosen as the model dyes. In order to determine the optimum pH range and coagulant concentration, a series of jar tests was done. Further experiments were conducted using a square flocculation tank with turbine impeller applying rapid and slow mix operations. The optimisation of initial rapid mixing, which has an important role in the overall coagulation process efficiency, was carried out. The optimum combination of velocity gradient and time of rapid mix was suggested for reactive dye wastewater treatment. Sedimentation curves for both model dyes were also obtained.     

Quaternary reactive dyes containing a thioether‐ethylsulphone group. Part 2; Application methods for the dyeing of nylon†

A member of the new series of cationic reactive dyes containing a thioether‐ethylsulphone grouping referred to in Part 1 of this series has been applied to nylon at pH 3–10. The dye is water soluble and shows excellent substantivity for nylon 6.6 when dyed at the boil at pH 8–10. Under alkaline conditions, gradual β‐elimination back to the vinylsulphone dye occurs and covalent bond formation quickly takes place with the fibre; the higher the pH the more rapidly this occurs. Dyeings carried out at pH 10 showed very good brightness and levelling, together with good wash fastness. The light fastness of dyeings at moderate depth was 4–5 on the Blue Wool scale.     

Use of ultrasonic energy in reactive dyeing of cellulosic fabrics

The use of ultrasonic energy in dyeing cotton fabrics with monochlorotriazine and vinylsulphone reactive dyes has been studied spectrophotometrically. The dyeings carried out conventionally and by the use of ultrasonic techniques were compared in terms of percentage exhaustion, total amount of dye transferred to the washing bath after dyeing, fastness properties and colour values of the dyed materials. Overall results have shown that the use of ultrasound in reactive dyeing of cellulosic fabrics can result in energy savings, less water consumption, increased depth of colour and better process conditions.

Study on analytical methods for quantifying the non‐adsorbed reactive dye forms in an exhausted dyebath

Reported herein are the results of an analysis of the compatibility of three methods for quantifying the non‐adsorbed forms of reactive dyes, in an exhausted dyebath, of the type monochlorotriazine/β‐sulphatoethylsulphone used in dyeing cellulosic fibres (cotton). The first method is based on spectrophotometric analysis and involves measuring the absorbance of the residual dyebath (after the dyeing process), the second is based on colorimetric analysis and involves measuring the reflectance of the dyed fabric and the third is based on high‐performance liquid chromatography. The purpose of the latter is to identify and quantify the non‐adsorbed dye forms in the residual dyebath. The calculated exhaustion values unequivocally prove the reliability and compatibility of these methods.     

Application of heterobifunctional reactive dyes on silk

The behaviour of heterobifunctional reactive dyes, containing a monochlorotriazine and a vinyl sulphone group, on silk has been investigated. Maximum exhaustion and fixation were obtained in a neutral medium at 90d? C. The addition of sodium sulphate was found to promote the exhaustion of reactive dyes at _pH values above the isoelectric point of silk. A reduction in the solubility of dyed silk indicated that crosslinks were formed with bifunctional reactive dyes.     

Optimal dyeing systems for resistance to the physical strength loss of the PLA/cotton blended fabric

In this study, optimization of disperse/reactive dyeing systems for resistance to the physical strength loss of Poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/cotton blended fabric was investigated. The blended fabric underwent a two‐bath, two‐stage dyeing process in which the PLA component of the blended fabric was dyed using two disperse dyes, followed by the cotton component being dyed with six reactive dyes containing different reactive groups—dichlorotriazine, monochlorotriazine, sulphatoethylsulphone, monofluorotriazine, monochlorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone, and monofluorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone groups. The optimal dyeing systems were established according to the fixation rate of the dyes, tear/tensile strength loss, and SEM micrographs of the fabric. To avoid the strength loss during the disperse/reactive dyeing process, the recommended disperse dyeing conditions were 110°C, pH 5 for 20 min, whereas the reactive dyeing conditions should be temperature ≤60°C and alkali concentration ≤3 g/L. In this regard, reactive dyes containing monofluorotriazine and monofluorotriazine/sulphatoethylsulphone groups were especially suitable for the reactive dyeing systems. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Influence of Temperature on Kinetics of Hydrolysis of Monochlorotriazine Reactive Dye

Abstract

The kinetics of hydrolysis of a commercial sample of the monochlorotriazine reactive dye was studied in an alkaline solution pH 10.9 at two temperatures, 80 and 50°C comparatively. The time dependent changes of the amounts of the active and hydrolysed forms of the dye were monitored by high-performance liquid chromatography.

The results indicate that within a defined time the pseudo-fiat-order kinetics can be considered. The rate constant of hydrolysis of the monochlorotriazine reactive dye at 80°C is about 33 times higher than at 50°C.
