Problems solved by technology

[0004] Existing photochromic fibers are made of liquid crystal spinning, grafting spirooxazine groups or spiropyran groups, adding fluorescent agents, using photochromic dyes and surface-adhered special microcapsules to achieve photochromic functions. The preparation process is complicated, the surface structure is easily damaged, the fatigue resistance is poor, and the service life is short. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a photochromic fiber that solves the above problems

Abstract

The invention provides a photochromic fiber as well as a preparation method and an application thereof. The photochromic fiber is a double-component composite fiber with a skin-core structure, wherein in a cross section of the double-component composite fiber with the skin-core structure, a skin layer and a core layer are in a concentric structure; the skin layer of the double-component composite fiber with the skin-core structure is made of low-smelting-point polyethylene terephthalate added with a phenoxy naphtho-naphthoquinone additive; the core layer is made of fiber-grade polyethylene terephthalate. The invention further provides the preparation method of the photochromic fiber. The photochromic fiber has good photochromism, heat stability, fatigue durability, short responding time, simple process and long service life, can serve as an anti-counterfeiting identification element for safe anti-counterfeiting and can also be used for garment materials and advertisements to increase the aesthetic feeling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical fibers, in particular to a photochromic fiber and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for textiles has gradually changed from practicality to diversity and functionality. Consumer psychology, broad application prospects. [0003] Photochromic fiber is a new type of functional fiber. Its principle has two main aspects. One is that the fiber is spun with liquid crystal, and contains liquid crystal structure inside, which has different reflection effects on incident light and forms photochromic at different angles; It is a photochromic substance added inside or adhered to the surface of the fiber. Due to its unique visual effect, the photochromic fiber can be applied in the fields of security and anti-counterfeiting, clothing fabrics and advertisements. [0004] E...
