Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cloud velvet production, in particular to a method for preparing graphene quantum dot cloud velvet. Background Art

[0002] Graphene is a carbon material with a two-dimensional layered structure. Its extended honeycomb network is the fundamental building block of other allotropes. Graphene quantum dots are graphene fragments ranging in size from a few to tens of nanometers. Compared to graphene, the movement of electrons within graphene quantum dots is restricted in all directions, resulting in more superior properties. The emergence of graphene quantum dots has revolutionized science, with important applications in bioimaging, environmental monitoring, thermal interface materials, drug delivery, and antimicrobial applications. Notably, graphene-based cloud velvet can serve as a down alternative, offering greater potential for product upgrades in home textile thermal storage and outdoor warmth.

[0003] Currently, clothing often uses natural materials such as polyester staple fiber, cotton wool, cashmere, camel hair, and down as primary fillings. However, thermal clothing made with these fillings offers few health benefits beyond warmth and fashion. Furthermore, while down offers excellent thermal insulation, the organic matter inherent in the raw material can easily lead to bacterial growth and odor generation over time, negatively impacting human health. This is an urgent issue that needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention

The supernatant was taken and transferred to a 3500 Da dialysis bag, and the external solution was changed every 2 h until the pH of the external solution was 7-8. Then, the solution was freeze-dried to obtain graphene quantum dots. (2) Graphene quantum dots and deionized water were mixed, 0.018 wt% silver nitrate aqueous solution was added, and the mixture was stirred at 60-100 rpm for 10-20 min. The mixture was heated to 95-110 °C, sodium citrate was added, and the mixture was stirred at a constant temperature for 30-70 min. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, and the mixture was transferred to a 3500 Da dialysis bag for filtration and freeze-dried to obtain graphene quantum dot composite nanosilver. (3) Mix polyvinyl alcohol and deionized water, heat to 60-90°C, stir at 100-200 rpm for 100-200 min, add graphene quantum dot composite nanosilver, continue stirring for 30-80 min, then use air as the core for coaxial spinning, and then shear to obtain graphene quantum dot cloud velvet.

[0006] Furthermore, the power of the ultrasound in step (1) is 400-800W and the time is 5-8h.

[0007] Furthermore, the process parameters of the ball milling in step (1) are as follows: the ball milling medium is agate balls, the ball-to-material ratio is 10:1, the rotation speed is 1350 rpm, and the time is 1.5 to 3 hours.

[0008] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the graphene aqueous solution with a concentration of 13.3 mg / mL, citric acid, and deionized water in step (1) is 3:0.5:10.

[0009] Furthermore, in step (2), the mass ratio of the graphene quantum dots, deionized water, 0.018 wt% silver nitrate aqueous solution, and sodium citrate is 0.03-0.08:300-600:0.15-0.28:0.2.

[0010] Furthermore, the freeze-drying temperature in step (1) and step (2) is -24 to -40°C and the time is 20 to 30 hours.

[0011] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the polyvinyl alcohol in step (3) is 2×10 4 .

[0012] Furthermore, the process parameters of the coaxial spinning in step (3) are: inner needle diameter of 1.56 mm, outer needle diameter of 4.21 mm, receiving distance of 20 cm, and feed rate of 20-50 mL / h.

[0014] Furthermore, the length of the graphene quantum dot cloud fleece in step (3) is 0.5 to 1.5 cm.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows: the present invention utilizes citric acid to assist ultrasonic exfoliation of graphene, and the cavitation effect of ultrasound causes molecules to vibrate strongly, overcoming the van der Waals force between the layered graphene layers, and the impact is converted into corresponding quantum dots, so that they are better dispersed in the solvent, and the exfoliation in the three-dimensional direction is converted into shearing in the two-dimensional direction, and the layers are exfoliated. At the same time, the ultrasonic energy causes the interaction and absorption between citric acid and graphene, and after dehydration condensation, a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups are contained around the graphene quantum dots, which is then subjected to ball milling treatment, and the graphene is further exfoliated and destroyed by mechanical force, thereby promoting the obtained graphene. Graphene quantum dots have a huge specific surface area and high surface activity, which are conducive to the capture of bacteria, thereby sterilizing them and making the matrix achieve an antibacterial effect; then, as the anchor point for the crystallization and nucleation of silver nanoparticles, and covered by the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups on the surface, the silver particles blocked by the graphene quantum dots not only reduce the self-agglomeration effect, but also enhance the reducibility of the graphene quantum dots, so that the graphene quantum dots-silver produce a large number of active oxygen free radicals in the presence of oxygen molecules. The free radicals further act on the cell membrane of bacteria, thereby improving the antibacterial properties, and hollow short fibers are produced by spinning, which increases the contact space between the matrix and the air, thereby enhancing the antibacterial properties.

[0027] Table 1

[0028] From the comparison of the experimental data of the embodiment and the comparative example in Table 1, it can be found that the present invention utilizes citric acid to assist ultrasonic exfoliation of graphene. Under the cavitation effect of ultrasound, the molecules vibrate strongly, overcome the van der Waals force between the layered graphene layers, and the impact is converted into corresponding quantum dots, so that they are better dispersed in the solvent. It will also convert the exfoliation from the three-dimensional direction into the shearing direction of the two-dimensional direction, exfoliating layer by layer. At the same time, through the ultrasonic energy, the citric acid interacts and absorbs with the graphene, and after dehydration condensation, a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups are contained around the graphene quantum dots. Then, ball milling is performed, and the graphene is further exfoliated and destroyed by mechanical force, thereby promoting the obtained graphite. Graphene quantum dots have a huge specific surface area and high surface activity, which are conducive to the capture of bacteria, thereby sterilizing them and making the matrix achieve antibacterial effect; then, as the anchor point for the crystallization nucleation of silver nanoparticles, and covered by the carboxyl and hydroxyl groups on the surface, the silver particles blocked by graphene quantum dots not only reduce the self-agglomeration effect, but also enhance the reducibility of graphene quantum dots, so that graphene quantum dots-silver produce a large number of active oxygen free radicals in the presence of oxygen molecules, and the free radicals further act on the cell membrane of bacteria, thereby improving the antibacterial property, and hollow short fibers are produced by coaxial spinning, which increases the contact space between the matrix and the air, thereby enhancing the antibacterial property.
