The invention relates to a process for preparing polyorganosiloxane-containing emulsions having a mean particle size of less than 0.3 .mu.m in which, in a first step,

Highly dispersed organopolysiloxane emulsions

The invention is a process wherein organic fibers are impregnated with organopolysiloxane (1) containing, in addition to diorganosiloxane units in which the two SiC-bonded organic radicals are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, at least two monovalent SiC-bonded radicals containing basic nitrogen, at least some of the SiC-bonded radical containing basic nitrogen comprising SiC-bonded N-cyclohexylaminoalkyl radicals. The SiC-bonded N-cyclohexylaminoalkyl radicals are in monoorganosiloxane and/or diorganosiloxane and/or triorganosiloxane units. The preferred SiC-bonded N-cyclohexylaminoalkyl radical is the SiC-bonded N-cyclohexyl-3-aminopropyl radical. The organopolysiloxane (1) contains optionally condensable groups which are bonded directly to silicon. The organopolysiloxane (1) containing condensable groups bonded directly to silicon can be employed together with an organopolysiloxane (2a) containing at least 3 Si-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, or together with trialkoxy- or tetraalkoxysilanes (2b), and if appropriate, together with a catalyst (3) for the condensation of condensable groups bonded directly to silicon.

Process for impregnating organic fibers

A method for impregnating organic fibers which comprises applying a composition containing (1) an organopolysiloxane having silicon-bonded condensable groups and containing diorganosiloxane units in which the two SiC-bonded organic radicals are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals and also contains two monovalent SiC-bonded radicals having a basic nitrogen group; (2) an organopolysiloxane having at least 3 Si-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule; and (3) a catalyst which promotes the condensation of the silicon-bonded condensable groups, in which the SiC-bonded radicals having a basic nitrogen group are present in the organopolysiloxane (1) as monoorganosiloxane units and as diorganosiloxane units.

Method for impregnating organic fibers

Novel organopolysiloxanes are described in which the organopolysiloxanes are terminated by units of the formula R.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2 and comprise units of the formulas RR.sup.1 SiO, RR.sup.2 SiO, RR.sup.3 SiO, RHSiO and R.sub.2 SiO, where R represents the same or different alkyl radicals having from 1 to 4 carbon atoms per radical, or phenyl radicals, R.sup.1 represents the same or different alkyl radicals having at least 6 carbon atoms per radical, R.sup.2 represents the same or different aralkyl radicals and R.sup.3 represents the same or different, SiC-bonded, monovalent organic radicals having at least one vicinal epoxy group per radical. These organopolysiloxanes are preferably prepared by reacting organopolysiloxanes which contain units of the formulas R.sub.3 SiO.sub.1/2 and RHSiO and optionally units of the formula R.sub.2 SiO, wherein R is the same as above, with an organic compound that has a terminal C.dbd.C-bond and at least one vicinal epoxy group per molecule, at least one alkene having at least 6 carbon atoms per molecule, and at least one aralkene in the presence of a catalyst which promotes the addition of Si-bonded hydrogen to the aliphatic C.dbd.C bond. These organopolysiloxanes may be applied simultaneously with a polymer having perfluoroalkyl groups with at least 3 carbon atoms per alkyl group to fibers to render them oil and water repellent.

Aqueous emulsions for impregnating organic fibers, comprising, in addition to water and dispersants, (1) a diorganopolysiloxane having a Si-bonded hydroxyl group in each terminal unit and whose organic radicals are free of basic nitrogen atoms; (2) an organopolysiloxane containing diorganosiloxane units in which the two organic radicals are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals and also contains at least two monovalent SiC-bonded organic radicals per molecule having a basic nitrogen atom in which the organopolysiloxane is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 5 to 50 weight percent based on the weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1); (3) an organosilicon compound selected from an organosilane containing at least two SiOC-bonded monovalent organic radicals consisting of carbon, hydrogen and possibly oxygen and/or partial hydrolyzates thereof, in which the organosilicon compound is present in the emulsion in an amount of from 2 to 6 weight percent based on the total weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2); and (4) a condensation catalyst, which is present in an amount of from 0.2 to 1 weight percent based on the total weight of the diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2). These aqueous emulsions are prepared by mixing the organosilicon compound (3) with an emulsion of diorganopolysiloxane (1) and organopolysiloxane (2) and thereafter mixing the resultant mixture with the condensation catalyst (4).

A method for impregnating textile materials made from organic fibers which comprises impregnating the textile materials with a composition containing a crosslinkable diorganopolysiloxane, an organopolysiloxane containing at least 3 Si-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, a crosslinking catalyst, and an organo(poly)siloxane containing 1 or 2 Si-bonded hydrogen atoms and 2 to 8 silicon atoms per molecule, in which the composition is free of a filler having a surface area greater than 50 g/m.sup.2 in an amount greater than 1 weight percent based on the weight of the organosilicon compounds and thereafter crosslinking the crosslinkable diorganopolysiloxane to form a coating thereon.

Method of impregnating textile materials made from organic fibers

Organopolysiloxanes having SiC-bonded oxyalkylene units and Si-bonded hydroxyl groups, in which an average of at least 15 mol percent of the siloxane units contain only one SiC-bonded monovalent organic radical and the silicon valences which are not satisfied by the SiC-bonded monovalent organic radical are satisfied by siloxane oxygen atoms or oxygen atoms of hydroxyl groups. These organopolysiloxanes are preferably prepared by reacting triorganosiloxy end-blocked organopolysiloxanes consisting of diorganosiloxane units, in which at least part of these units contain SiC-bonded oxyalkylene units and, if appropriate, organohydrogensiloxane units or organohydroxyl siloxane units or organoalkoxysiloxane units of mixtures of at least two such monoorganosiloxy units with water in the presence of an acid or base or, and subsequently with a silane or simultaneously with water and a silane in which the silane contains one SiC-bonded monovalent organic radical, or partially hydrolyzed products of the silane.

Organic fibers are impregnated with an aqueous emulsion comprising (1) an organopolysiloxane containing diorganosiloxane units in which both organic radicals are monovalent hydrocarbon radicals, and further contains at least two monovalent SiC-bonded organic radicals with a basic nitrogen atom per molecule in which the SiC-bonded organic radicals with a basic nitrogen are present in monoorganosiloxane units, (2) an organopolysiloxane having at least 3 Si-bonded hydrogen atoms per molecule, (3) a catalyst for the condensation of Si-bonded condensable groups (4) emulsifiers, and (5) a diorganopolysiloxane containing an Si-bonded hydroxyl group in each of its terminal units and whose radicals are free of the basic nitrogen atom. If it is desired to impart hydrophobic properties to the impregnated organic fibers, then it is essential that (6) a trimethylsiloxy end-blocked diorganopolysiloxane be added to the aqueous emulsion. Moreover, as the amount of trimethylsiloxy end-blocked diorganopolysiloxane (6) is increased in the emulsion, the hydrophobic properties of the impregnated fibers increases.
