NOVEL POLYHYDROXYALKYL POLYAMIDE, ITS SALT, ADDITION COMPOUND WITH ITS ETHYLENE OXIDE AND/OR PROPYLENE OXIDE, MANUFACTURE OF NOVEL COMPOUND AND METHOD OF SOFTENING AND ANTISTATICALLY PROTECTING FIBER PRODUCT

摘要

The novel compounds are reaction products of a) epoxyalkanes (C6-C20) and b) polyaminoalkanes having 2 N-H groups in the molecule, their salts with inorganic or organic acids and also addition products of 1-5 mol of alkylene oxide (C2-C3) with the reaction products or salts thereof. The reaction takes place in a molar ratio of a:b of from 5:1 to 2:1. Preferred epoxyalkanes have 10-18 carbon atoms and at least one terminal epoxy group. Preferred polyaminoalkanes are compounds selected from the group consisting of propylenediamine, dipropylenediamine, triethylenetetramine, tripropylenetetramine, tetraethylenepentamine and mixtures thereof. Particularly interesting compounds are reaction products of epoxyalkanes (C12-C14) with dipropylenetriamine in a molar ratio of 2:1.
