Compositions for treating textiles and carpet and applications thereof
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.
