Abstract
Protective finishing compositions and methods of manufacturing such compositions for finishing carpet products with a stainblocker and fluorocarbon-based repellant in a one-step process, include first adding a naphthalene sulfonated salt to either a stainblocker or a fluorocarbon-based repellant and then adding the combination to the chemical not originally mixed with the naphthalene sulfonated salt.
Claims10
A protective finishing composition for protecting nylon fibers comprising an aqueous mixture of a stainblocker, a fluorocarbon-based repellant emulsion and a naphthalene sulfonated salt fluorocarbon anti-coalescing agent in an amount effective to prevent said fluorocarbon-based repellant from coalescing, and wherein said stainblocker is selected from the group consisting of syntans, sulfonated novolacs and sulfonated aromatic aldehyde condensation products, and wherein said fluorocarbon-based repellant emulsion is selected from the group consisting of anionic and non-anionic fluorocarbon-based repellant emulsions.
A method for producing a protective finishing composition for protecting nylon fibers comprising the steps of mixing a naphthalene sulfonated salt with a fluorocarbon-based repellant selected from the group consisting of anionic and non-anionic fluorocarbon based emulsions, and mixing the resulting mixture with a stainblocker selected from the group consisting of syntans, sulfonated novolacs and sulfonated aromatic aldehyde condensation products, the naphthalene sulfonated salt being mixed in an amount effective to prevent said fluorocarbon-based repellant from coalescing.
A method for producing a protective finishing composition for protecting nylon fibers comprising the steps of mixing a naphthalene sulfonated salt with a stainblocker selected from the group consisting of syntans, sulfonated novolacs and sulfonated aromatic aldehyde condensation products, and mixing the resulting mixture with a fluorocarbon-based repellant selected from the group consisting of anionic and non-anionic fluorocarbon based repellant emulsions, the naphthalene sulfonated salt being mixed in an amount effective to prevent the fluorocarbon-based repellant from coalescing.
