Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to a spiderweb-like multi-microporous waterproof and breathable coated fabric, its preparation method and application, belonging to the field of fabric finishing technology. Background Technology
[0002] Waterproof and breathable textiles are functional fabrics that can prevent the penetration of external liquid water under certain pressure, but allow sweat from the skin to be transmitted to the outside in the form of water vapor. They can be widely used in many fields such as surgical protective clothing, outdoor clothing, and wound dressings.
[0003] Currently, waterproof and breathable fabrics mainly include the following three types: (1) high-density fabrics, which are made by reducing the pores between fibers through a high warp and weft density weaving structure; (2) laminated fabrics, which are made by laminating a waterproof and breathable film with multiple layers of fabric; and (3) coated fabrics, which are made by coating a polymer material onto the surface of a base fabric. Among them, the pores between the yarns of high-density waterproof and breathable fabrics are relatively large, resulting in lower waterproof performance; the film manufacturing and lamination processes involved in laminated waterproof and breathable fabrics are complicated, resulting in high processing costs and difficulty in meeting the price demands of mass consumers. Coated waterproof and breathable fabrics have unique advantages such as simple processing, excellent waterproof performance, and low cost, which have attracted continuous attention from market applications and scientific research.
[0004] For example, Chinese patent CN103628322A discloses a processing method for high peel strength raincoat fabric. This method prepares waterproof and breathable coated raincoat fabric by directly dry coating the bottom and top layers of the fabric. However, the coated fabric is dense and non-porous, resulting in a low moisture permeability (<1839 gm). -2 d -1 Chinese patent CN102605623A discloses a method for preparing waterproof and breathable coated fabrics. This method improves the breathability (4460~4730 g m) of the waterproof and breathable coated fabrics by utilizing cellulose ethers or their derivatives to form breathable micropores in the coating film. -2 d -1 However, the micropores in this waterproof and breathable coating are few and do not extend to the upper and lower surfaces of the coating. It is not a through-hole structure that can quickly transfer moisture, so it is difficult to further improve its breathability and cannot effectively transfer air, which has an adverse effect on the timely discharge of human sweat and moisture and the comfort of wearing the fabric.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop high-performance waterproof and breathable coatings with multi-microporous structures. Summary of the Invention

[0015] In one embodiment, the hydrophobic agent in step 1 is one or more of fluorinated polyurethane, long-chain fluorinated polyurethane, fluorinated acrylate copolymer, and fluorine-free organosilicon compound.
[0016] In one embodiment, the relative humidity (RH) for pore structure culture in the constant temperature and humidity chamber described in step 2 is 70%~99%; more preferably 80~95%; and even more preferably 90~95%.

[0018] In one embodiment, the time for pore structure culture in the constant temperature and humidity chamber described in step 2 is 0.5 to 5 hours; more preferably 1 to 2 hours.
[0019] In one embodiment, the preferred conditions for pore structure culture in the constant temperature and humidity chamber described in step 2 are: relative humidity of 80-95%, temperature of 30-40℃, and time of 1-4h.
[0020] In one embodiment, the relative humidity (RH) for pore structure culture in the constant temperature and humidity chamber described in step 2 is 90-95%, the temperature is 30-40°C, and the time is 1-2 hours.
[0021] A second objective of this invention is to provide a spiderweb-like multi-microporous waterproof and breathable coated fabric obtained by the method described above.
[0022] In one embodiment, the moisture permeability of the spiderweb-like multi-microporous waterproof and breathable coating fabric is 5014~5472 gm. -2 d -1 Hydrostatic pressure resistance is 262~624 mmH2O, and air permeability is 3.3~9.2 mmS. -1 .
[0023] The third objective of this invention is to provide an application of the aforementioned spiderweb-like multi-microporous waterproof and breathable coated fabric in the fields of medical protective clothing, outdoor clothing, wound dressings, and wearable devices.
[0024] A fourth objective of this invention is to provide a method for improving the waterproof, moisture-permeable, and breathable properties of coated fabrics, the method comprising the following steps:

[0027] Beneficial effects:
[0028] This invention provides a spiderweb-like multi-microporous waterproof and breathable coated fabric and its preparation method. The method involves transferring a fabric impregnated with a low surface energy polymer coating liquid to a constant temperature and humidity environment to cultivate a spiderweb-like multi-microporous structure. A pore-forming template is formed through the condensation and growth of water vapor on the surface of the ultra-thin coating liquid under high humidity and the dynamic rearrangement of water droplets, inducing the formation of a spiderweb-like multi-microporous structure. Simultaneously, during solvent evaporation, fluorinated segments migrate and accumulate on the coating surface, reducing the surface energy of the resulting coating and improving the hydrophobicity of the material. Ultimately, a coated fabric with high waterproofness, breathability, and air permeability is obtained. Compared with existing technologies, this method has the following advantages:
[0029] (1) The coating has abundant network microporous features;
[0030] (2) The coating has a connected pore structure and small pore size;
[0031] (3) The coated fabric made using the present invention has excellent moisture transfer properties and can be used for functional textiles that meet the requirements of high moisture permeability and breathability.
[0032] (4) The preparation method is simple and the processing parameters are easy to control, which can be extended to large-scale and industrialized production. Attached Figure Description

[0139] Results Analysis
[0140] 1. Morphological and structural characterization of the coated fabrics prepared in the examples and comparative examples.
[0141] Figure 1 This is a SEM image of the surface morphology of the textile coating in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 The image shows the SEM image of the surface morphology of the textile coating obtained in Comparative Example 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The comparison shows that although the coated fabric also has pores when the polyurethane concentration is too high, these pores are not deep and are only surface grooves, and do not form a continuous channel that runs through the coating thickness, which limits the effective improvement of moisture transfer performance. In contrast, the coated fabric made by the present invention exhibits a continuous channel structure with a spider web-like morphology and a large number of channels, which helps to significantly improve the moisture transfer rate of the coated fabric.
[0142] 2. Performance testing of coated fabrics prepared in Example 1 and different comparative examples

Comparative Example 3, due to direct impregnation and drying without constant temperature and humidity pore structure cultivation, has a large pore size, leading to insufficient waterproofing performance (hydrostatic pressure resistance of 215 mmH2O). Comparative Example 4, due to direct coating on textile surfaces without constant temperature and humidity pore structure cultivation, has a large pore size and poor hydrophobicity, also resulting in low waterproofing performance (hydrostatic pressure resistance of 201 mmH2O). Comparative Example 5, due to excessively low humidity during structure formation cultivation, has an uneven pore structure and large pore size, resulting in insufficient waterproofing performance (hydrostatic pressure resistance of 231 mmH2O). Comparative Example 6, due to excessively low structure formation cultivation temperature, has an uneven pore structure and large pore size, resulting in insufficient waterproofing performance (hydrostatic pressure resistance of 222 mmH2O). Comparative Example 7, due to excessively short structure formation cultivation time, has an uneven pore structure and large pore size, resulting in insufficient waterproofing performance (hydrostatic pressure resistance of 228 mmH2O). mmH2O).
