Compositions for treating textiles and carpet and applications thereof
View Patent ↗The present invention provides compositions for treating textiles, including carpet and other floor coverings. Compositions of the present invention, in some embodiments, can impart flame resistant and/or stain resistant properties to fibers, including synthetic fibers comprising polyolefins, polyamides, and polyesters such as polytrimethylene terephthalate.
1. An aqueous dispersion comprising:
a dye component;
at least one dye leveler compound; and
a compound of Formula (I):
wherein R 1 , R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from the group consisting of -fluoroalkenyl, -chloroalkenyl, -bromoalkenyl, -cycloalkyl, and -heterocyclyl,
wherein the chloroalkyl, chloroalkenyl, and cycloalkyl, groups of R 1 -R 3 are optionally and independently substituted one or more times with a substituent selected from the group consisting of -alkyl, -alkenyl, -fluoroalkyl, -chloroalkyl, -bromoalkyl, -aryl, —O-alkyl, —O-alkenyl, —O-aryl, —O-alkylene-aryl, -carboxyl, -hydroxyl, -halo and -nitro.
2. The aqueous dispersion of claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula (I) comprises tris(1,3-dichloroisopropyl)phosphate.
3. The aqueous dispersion of claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula (I) is present in an amount ranging from about 10 weight percent to about 80 weight percent.
4. The aqueous dispersion of claim 1 , wherein the dye component comprises an acid dye, cationic dye, disperse dye, fiber reactive dye, sulfur dye, vat dye or mixtures thereof.
