Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of multifunctional textile technology, and in particular to a multifunctional flame-retardant textile based on biomass and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, textiles are widely used in clothing, decoration, and construction. However, textiles are flammable and release smoke and toxic gases during combustion, posing a serious threat to people's lives and property, greatly limiting their application. Therefore, flame-retardant treatment of textiles can slow the spread of fire, reduce the production of toxic gases during combustion, and protect personal and property safety. There are two common methods for preparing flame-retardant textiles: one is to treat the textiles with various flame-retardant finishing agents; the other is to manufacture flame-retardant fibers. However, the production cost of flame-retardant fibers is high and the technology is difficult, so flame-retardant finishing agents are generally used to treat textiles.

[0003] Conventional halogen-based flame retardants have advantages such as low dosage and high flame retardant efficiency, but they produce dense smoke and hydrogen halide gases during combustion, causing fatal injuries to people in fires. Furthermore, these harmful substances can accumulate in the environment and organisms, seriously endangering human health and the ecological environment. With increasing awareness of ecological protection, halogen-free flame retardants have become the mainstream of current research. Biomass materials, rich in elements such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus, can be used as raw materials for flame retardants. At the same time, the development and use of bio-based polymeric flame retardants can effectively alleviate resource scarcity and avoid the environmental pollution problems caused by the application of petroleum-based materials. Moreover, people have increasingly higher requirements for the performance of flame-retardant textiles. Flame-retardant fibers or fabrics that only possess flame-retardant properties cannot meet the special requirements of certain sectors, necessitating the development of multifunctional flame-retardant textiles.

[0004] Therefore, developing a multifunctional flame-retardant textile based on biomass with coloring, antibacterial, and UV-resistant properties has significant practical application value and social significance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a multifunctional flame-retardant textile based on biomass and its preparation method.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] This invention provides a method for preparing a multifunctional flame-retardant textile based on biomass, comprising the following steps:

[0008] 1) The cotton fabric was soaked in folic acid aqueous solution and then dried. The folic acid-treated cotton fabric was soaked in egg yolk aqueous solution and then dried. The cotton fabric was soaked alternately in folic acid aqueous solution and egg yolk aqueous solution to obtain pretreated cotton fabric.

[0009] 2) The pretreated cotton fabric was soaked in phytic acid aqueous solution and then dried to obtain a biomass-based multifunctional flame-retardant textile.

[0010] Preferably, the folic acid aqueous solution in step 1) has a mass concentration of 0.1-1.5% and a pH value of 3-5.

[0011] Preferably, the mass concentration of the egg yolk aqueous solution in step 1) is 25-75%.

[0012] Preferably, in step 1), the soaking time in the folic acid aqueous solution and the soaking time in the egg yolk aqueous solution are independently 8 to 12 minutes, and the drying temperature is independently 55 to 65°C.

[0013] Preferably, when the cotton fabric is alternately soaked in folic acid aqueous solution and egg yolk aqueous solution once, the number of layers deposited is 1.

[0014] Preferably, the number of layers deposited on the pretreated cotton fabric is 1 to 3.

[0015] Preferably, the phytic acid aqueous solution in step 2) has a mass concentration of 5-20%.

[0016] Preferably, the soaking time in step 2) is 8 to 12 minutes, and the drying temperature is 55 to 65°C.

[0017] The present invention also provides the preparation method described above to prepare a multifunctional flame-retardant textile based on biomass.

[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention include:

[0019] 1) This invention uses a layer-by-layer self-assembly method to construct a folic acid / egg yolk / phytic acid coating on the surface of cotton fabric, successfully preparing a biomass-based antibacterial and UV-resistant multifunctional flame-retardant textile with good coloring effect, which increases the added value of textiles, expands the application fields of textiles, and has important practical application value and social significance.

[0020] 2) This invention utilizes biomass materials such as folic acid, egg yolk, and phytic acid. Folic acid is one of the vitamin B complex components and is widely distributed in green vegetables. The amino groups in folic acid are positively charged under acidic conditions, exhibiting certain antibacterial properties. Simultaneously, it can absorb ultraviolet light in the 280–370 nm range, providing UV protection. Phytic acid is widely available, easy to extract, contains a large amount of phosphorus, and possesses excellent flame-retardant properties. Egg yolk and folic acid can give textiles a uniform yellow color, providing excellent coloring effects. By assembling folic acid, egg yolk, and phytic acid onto the surface of textiles, a biomass-based, antibacterial, and UV-resistant multifunctional flame-retardant textile with excellent coloring effects is prepared.

[0021] 3) This invention uses biomass materials for flame-retardant finishing of textiles, which has higher ecological performance and lower environmental pollution risk than traditional flame-retardant technologies. It better protects human life, property, and the ecological environment, and is conducive to the construction of a green and environmentally friendly social development model. Most traditional flame retardants are synthesized from petroleum-based compounds. The biopolymer flame retardant used in this invention has advantages such as wide availability, biodegradability, and renewability. Its development and use can effectively alleviate resource scarcity and avoid the environmental pollution problems caused by the application of petroleum-based materials. Attached Figure Description

[0040] Example 1

[0041] Dissolve folic acid evenly in water, adjust the pH of the solution to 5 with acetic acid, and then place the solution in a 50°C constant temperature water bath and shake at a rate of 70 rpm for 30 min to obtain a folic acid aqueous solution with a mass concentration of 1.5%.

After immersion, the cotton fabric was removed and dried at 60°C. Then, the cotton fabric was immersed in a 50% egg yolk aqueous solution (the mass ratio of cotton fabric to egg yolk aqueous solution was 1:50) for 10 minutes. After immersion, the cotton fabric was removed and dried at 60°C. After the cotton fabric was alternately immersed in folic acid aqueous solution and egg yolk aqueous solution 3 times, folic acid and egg yolk were deposited on the surface of the cotton fabric to form 3 layers of coating.

[0043] Water was added to phytic acid to prepare a phytic acid aqueous solution with a mass concentration of 15%. The cotton fabric with the folic acid and egg yolk coating deposited was immersed in the phytic acid aqueous solution (the mass ratio of the cotton fabric with the coating deposited to the phytic acid aqueous solution was 1:50).

[0044] Antibacterial tests were conducted on the multifunctional flame-retardant textile, blank group, and untreated cotton fabric of Example 1. The method was as follows: 0.75g of sample was weighed, cut into small pieces, and placed into 15mL centrifuge tubes according to the group. The tubes were then sterilized in a high-temperature and high-pressure steam sterilizer at 121℃ and 103kPa for 20min. The bacterial solution was diluted to 10 with sterile PBS solution. 5 CFU / mL, samples (multifunctional flame-retardant textiles and untreated cotton fabrics from Example 1) were transferred to Erlenmeyer flasks, and 70 mL of sterile PBS solution and 5 mL of diluted bacterial suspension were added respectively.
