Problems solved by technology

[0005] The open magazine "China Fiber Inspection", published date 1997 No. 11, titled "Research on Solvent Washing Containing Fat and Lint", mentioned the method of washing wool with solvent, although it uses the method of washing wool with solvent It can indeed play a role in saving water and washing wool, but its disadvantage is that there are many problems in the use of such organic solvents, such as petroleum solvents are flammable and have poor safety, and non-flammable halogenated hydrocarbon solvents are toxic Large, cannot be discharged at will, and needs to be circulated in a closed system. This type of organic solvent will inevitably be lost during use, and the cost is higher than that of water washing for high solvent recovery equipment.
[0006] The published magazine "Heilongjiang Textile", published date 1996, No. 67, titled "Protease Washing Wool Technology", mentioned the method of cleaning wool with protease, although it uses the neutral protease ASI398 added to the third washing tank to wash wool. The method of removing protein pollutants on the wool surface does improve the quality of the wool, but its shortcoming is that it does not fundamentally solve the problem of large water consumption in the wool washing process
[0007] The open magazine "Wool Spinning Science and Technology", published date 2010, Volume 28, No. 7, titled "Optimization of Bio-enzyme Wool Washing Process Based on Response Surface Method", mentioned the method of cleaning wool with biological enzymes, although it uses biological enzymes to The method of cleaning wool does play a role in thoroughly cleaning wool and reducing the fat content of wool, but its disadvantage is that it needs to cultivate bacteria first, and then wash wool, and the process is more complicated
[0008] The open magazine "Journal of Textile Sciences", the publication date of the 2006 volume 27, No. 10, titled "Ultrasonic Wool Washing Technology" mentioned the process of washing wool with ultrasonic technology, although the method of washing wool with ultrasonic waves it adopted has indeed played a role in washing wool. The effect of cleaning wool, but its disadvantage is that it has the problem of loud noise and damage to wool scales
Although the method of cleaning wool with an ultrasonic device has indeed improved the efficiency of removing impurities such as lanolin and saved energy and water, its disadvantages are that it has the problems of loud noise and damage to wool scales

[0038] According to the above process steps: select 1g of wool fiber as the wool fiber to be cleaned. The wool fiber is placed in a washing solution mixed with isopropanol, water and sodium carbonate, and scoured in a wool scourer, wherein the bath ratio of the first washing solution is 1:20, and the ratio of isopropanol to water is 1:20. The volume ratio is 50%:50%, the concentration of sodium carbonate is 0.15% of the wool fiber weight, the washing temperature in one tank is 45°C, and the washing time in one tank is 5 minutes. The wool fibers washed in the first tank are placed in the second washing liquid mixed with isopropanol, water, sodium carbonate, mercerized soap and nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and then scoured in the wool scourer. The bath ratio of the lotion is 1:50, the volume ratio of isopropanol to water is 50%:50%, the concentration of sodium carbonate is 0.15% of the weight of the wool fiber, and the concentration of mercerized soap is 0.10% of the weigh...

Embodiment 3

[0040] According to the above process steps: select 1g cashmere fiber as the wool fiber to be cleaned. Put the cashmere fiber in a washing solution mixed with ethanol, water and sodium carbonate, and wash wool in a wool scourer, wherein the bath ratio of the first washing solution is 1:20, and the volume ratio of ethanol to water is 50 %: 50%, the concentration of sodium carbonate is 0.15% of the wool fiber weight, the washing temperature in one tank is 45°C, and the washing time in one tank is 5 minutes. The cashmere fibers washed in the first tank are placed in the second washing liquid mixed with ethanol, water, sodium carbonate, mercerized soap and nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether, and the wool is scoured in the wool scourer, wherein the second washing liquid The bath ratio is 1:20, the volume ratio of ethanol to water is 50%:50%, the concentration of sodium carbonate is 0.15% of the weight of cashmere fiber, the concentration of mercerized soap is 0.10% of the weight of ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a cleaning method of wool fiber, which is mainly targeted at the cleaning of the wool fiber and pashm fiber. According to the cleaning method of the wool fiber provided by the invention, the wool fiber is subjected to circulated cleaning by a solution which is prepared by mixing an alcohol organic solvent in high proportion, a little water, and a wool washing agent, and oleophilic dirt on the wool fabric can be rapidly wetted and dissolved to clean the wool fiber more thoroughly. Not only is the loss of the wool fiber strength in the cleaning process greatly improved, but also the entanglement between the wool fibers is reduced, as well as the wool fiber cannot be puffed and felted, so that the yield of a combed wool strip is improved; the problems of incomplete wool cleaning, large wool fiber strength loss and high water consumption in a traditional wool fiber cleaning process are solved; the alcohol organic solvent used by the method provided by the invention is safe and nontoxic, and can be recycled; and the cleaning method greatly reduces water consumption, and is economical, energy-saving, safe and environment-friendly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for cleaning wool fibers, mainly aiming at cleaning wool fibers and cashmere fibers. Background technique [0002] Conventional wool fiber cleaning is to use chemical and mechanical action to remove grease, sweat and some impurities on the wool fiber, so as to restore the original whiteness, looseness, softness and good elasticity of the wool fiber, and to ensure the smoothness of the wool fiber during processing. The processes of carding, spinning, weaving, dyeing and finishing are carried out smoothly. [0003] Wool fiber cleaning has always been using water as a cleaning agent. However, the long-term water supply and the discharged sewage after cleaning have been bothering people. Natural wool contains about 13% lanolin, and only about 50% of the water agent in the aqueous solution containing natural lanolin can be recycled. Water resources that cannot be recovered are usually discharged by drainage pipes, and th...
