Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of molten metal protective fabric, in particular to a protective fabric, a preparation method and application thereof, and particularly relates to a high-comfort molten metal protective fabric and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Due to the extremely high temperature of molten metal, it is easy to burn through the fabric surface after splashing, causing the fabric to lose its protective ability. The surface tension of aluminum liquid is low, which is easy to adhere to the surface of the fabric, and the solidification of aluminum liquid releases a large amount of heat, which is more likely to cause secondary burns. The clothing prepared by wearing molten metal splashing protective fabric can effectively protect the molten aluminum from splashing, and the protective fabric containing wool has been widely used, because the surface scale layer of wool can provide certain protection to the fiber.

[0003] Most of the existing molten metal splashing protective fabric patents achieve the protective effect by optimizing the fiber raw material ratio or the fabric structure, such as using fiber raw materials with certain flame-retardant and heat-insulating functions for spinning, structure design and weaving. In order to achieve good molten metal splashing protection effect, a very high area density is required, generally reaching 350g / m 2 Therefore, the fabric has a hard hand feeling and poor wearability.

[0004] CN115323771A discloses a preparation method of a modified wool fabric with flame-retardant properties, comprising the following steps: (1) preparation of a crosslinking agent solution; (2) preparation of a phytic acid / silicon hybrid sol: a mixture of TEOS (tetraethoxysilane) and ethanol is added dropwise to a phytic acid solution under stirring, and heated and stirred to obtain a phytic acid / silicon hybrid sol; (3) preparation of a functional flame-retardant composite fabric; (4) pretreatment: the functional flame-retardant composite fabric is soaked in the crosslinking agent solution, taken out and dried; then the functional flame-retardant composite fabric is placed in the phytic acid / silicon hybrid sol and stirred and soaked; (5) pre-drying and curing treatment to obtain a modified wool fabric with flame-retardant properties. Although the fabric has certain flame-retardant effect, it cannot achieve good molten metal splashing protection effect.

[0005] CN114557506A discloses a preparation method of a light and soft breathable down garment fabric, characterized by the following steps: adding the nano factor material to an organic solvent (the nano factor material is PDMS or PTFE, and the organic solvent is n-hexane), sealing, heating and stirring, and then cooling to room temperature to obtain a colloidal coating liquid; then uniformly coating the colloidal coating liquid on the wool fabric; and finally placing the coated fabric body in a heating device and baking until the colloidal coating liquid is completely dried, so as to form a waterproof and breathable nano film layer on the wool fabric to obtain a anti-piercing down layer. CN114557506A obtains a waterproof and breathable nano film by coating PDMS or PTFE colloidal coating liquid on the wool fabric, but the film does not have heat insulation and flame retardant ability.

[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a low-surface-energy heat insulation coating that can not only make the molten metal quickly slip off the surface of the fabric, but also improve the heat insulation effect and the comfort of the fabric. To improve the slip-off property of the molten metal, two aspects can be considered: one is to use a low-surface-energy coating material, and the other is to form a nano-structured rough surface. In addition to high slip-off property, the coating material must also have good heat insulation and flame retardant properties.

[0007] Therefore, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0008] One of the purposes of the present application is to provide a protective fabric, which comprises a fabric base layer containing wool fibers and an inorganic oxide hollow microsphere / PDMS coating layer coated on the fabric base layer. By forming a low-surface-energy heat insulation and flame retardant coating layer with micro-nano rough structure, the heat protection performance of the fabric is improved, and the slip-off property of the molten metal is also improved. The coating layer is light and thin, has little effect on the air permeability of the fabric, and improves the felting property of the wool blended fabric, so that the comfort and the anti-molten metal spatter performance can be considered.

[0009] The second purpose of the present application is to provide a preparation method of the protective fabric. The inorganic oxide hollow microsphere / PDMS has good permeability to the fabric, can uniformly wrap the surface of the yarn, and retains the voids of the porous fabric. The plasma treatment means can produce some high-reactivity functional groups on the surface of the fabric and play a certain degree of surface etching effect, thereby improving the surface composite effect of the material.

[0010] The third purpose of the present application is the application of the protective fabric in the preparation of a molten metal spatter protective fabric. The protective fabric has a low-surface-energy heat insulation coating, which can make the molten metal quickly slip off the surface of the fabric and improve the heat insulation effect.

[0011] In order to achieve the above purposes of the present application, the following technical solutions are adopted:

[0012] In a first aspect, the present application provides a protective fabric, which comprises a fabric base layer containing wool fibers and an inorganic oxide hollow microsphere / PDMS coating layer coated on the fabric base layer.

[0013] In the present application, the fabric base layer mainly contains wool fibers, which is a natural protein fiber with special structure and chemical composition and various properties and advantages that synthetic fibers do not have. In particular, wool fibers contain a large amount of nitrogen and sulfur elements, have self-extinguishing performance, can self-extinguish after leaving the fire, and the scale layer of wool fibers can play a certain protective role, but the scale effect also leads to problems such as felting of blended fabrics and poor comfort. Therefore, the inorganic oxide hollow microsphere / PDMS coating layer is coated on the fabric base layer to improve the thermal protection performance and the slipperiness of molten metal. The coating layer is light and thin, has little effect on the air permeability of the fabric, and improves the felting property of wool blended fabrics.

[0014] Among them, PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) is the most widely used silicon-based organic polymer material, which has low thermal conductivity, low surface energy, inertness and other characteristics, and is often used as a hydrophobic finishing agent. Inorganic oxide hollow microspheres have low density, high temperature resistance, and low thermal conductivity. Because of the hollow structure inside, the static air can effectively block the transfer of heat, achieving thermal protection effect. Because of the good compatibility between the two, a stable composite coating layer can be formed by blending.

[0015] Because the viscosity of PDMS is low before curing, it has good permeability to the fabric, can uniformly wrap the surface of the yarn, retain the voids of the porous fabric, and reduce the scale effect of the treated wool, thereby reducing the washing felting phenomenon of the fabric. In addition, because the density of inorganic oxide hollow microspheres is less than that of PDMS solution, during the curing process of PDMS in the coating solution, inorganic oxide hollow microspheres will continuously gather on the upper layer of the solution and partially float to the surface of the solution, forming a gradient uneven dispersion and micro-nano structure protrusion, i.e. a micro-nano scale rough surface (as shown in Figure 1 )

[0016] And the dense structure formed after the crosslinking and curing of PDMS not only maintains a low heat conduction rate under high temperature conditions, but also plays a role in isolating air and preventing oxygen from diffusing inward, which is a commonly used silicon-based flame retardant. In addition to excellent flame retardant effect, the static air inside the hollow inorganic oxide hollow microspheres also greatly hinders the transfer of heat from the outside to the inside of the coating. The two work together to have a synergistic effect, which can improve the thermal protection performance and further improve the slipperiness of molten metal.

[0017] Preferably, the fabric base layer further comprises flame-retardant viscose fibers and / or aramid fibers.

[0018] Preferably, the fabric base layer is prepared by blending wool fibers, flame-retardant viscose fibers and aramid fibers.

[0019] In the present application, the fabric base layer is made of wool, flame-retardant viscose fibers and aramid fibers which have flame-retardant and heat-insulating functions, and the wool is doped with part of the flame-retardant viscose fibers and aramid fibers to compensate for the poor flame-retardant property of wool, thereby improving the flame-retardant property of the fabric itself, and the flame-retardant viscose fibers and aramid fibers also have a significant improvement effect on the comfort of the fabric.

[0022] For example, the "0.6-1.2" can be 0.6, 0.8, 1, 1.2, etc.

[0023] Preferably, the flame-retardant viscose fibers are obtained by grafting and / or blending a silicon-nitrogen flame-retardant agent into viscose fibers.

[0024] The silicon-nitrogen flame-retardant agent contains a large number of polar groups on the surface, so it has good compatibility with viscose spinning solution and can form a uniformly dispersed flame-retardant viscose spinning solution, which is conducive to the preparation of flame-retardant viscose fibers and improves the physical limit performance of the fibers to obtain flame-retardant viscose fibers with high breaking strength; and after the viscose fibers are grafted and / or blended with the silicon-nitrogen flame-retardant agent, a dense silicon layer structure can be formed on the surface of the fibers when heated, which prevents heat conduction, and also produces non-combustible gas to dilute the combustible gas decomposed from the fibers and isolate air.
