Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an organic silicon water-based technical cloth sofa fabric and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of textile fabric processing. Background Art

[0002] Sofa fabrics account for a large proportion of woven fabrics used in home textile decoration. With the continuous improvement of the quality of life, people have put forward higher requirements on the functionality, appearance, style and price of fabric sofa fabrics. Imitation leather fabrics are all made by post-finishing coating technology, which makes the surface of the fabric have the feel of leather. The surface coating layer is generally polyurethane coating or polyvinyl chloride coating.

[0003] As we all know, polyurethane has the characteristics of good film-forming property, good adhesion, stable emulsion, strong corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical properties, etc., and is widely used in automobile manufacturing, interior decoration, leather finishing and other industries. However, polyurethane prepared by traditional production raw materials and traditional synthesis methods has great environmental pollution, poor water resistance and low temperature resistance, and at the same time, the function of pure polyurethane coating is single. Therefore, a new technical solution is proposed here to ensure that the polyurethane coating retains its original properties while reducing its pollution to the environment, improving the thermal stability, mechanical properties and water resistance of the material, and extending its service life.

During the reaction, the characteristic peak of the isocyanate (NCO) group of toluene diisocyanate is detected by FT-IR to ensure that the NCO group is completely reacted. The obtained isocyanate-terminated siloxane and corn starch are heated to 60°C and reacted for 48 hours to obtain an organosilicon-modified starch suspension. The product is repeatedly washed with acetone. After centrifugation and filtration, it is dried in an oven at 80°C to obtain an organosilicon-modified starch powder. The organosilicon-modified starch powder is sealed and stored.

[0011] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a water-based silicone technical fabric sofa fabric, comprising the following steps:

[0012] (1) Preparation of silicone waterborne polyurethane coating

[0013] Polyethylene glycol, isophorone diisocyanate, 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid and a small amount of n-methylpyrrolidone were added to a four-necked flask equipped with a reflux condenser, a thermometer and a mechanical stirring device. The temperature was raised to 80°C and stirred at 300 rpm for 50 minutes under nitrogen atmosphere. After that, an appropriate amount of organosilicon-modified corn starch was added and stirring continued for 30 minutes. Then triethanolamine was added and the carboxylic acid in 2,2-dimethylolpropionic acid was neutralized at 50°C, and a small amount of acetone was injected into the mixture to reduce the viscosity during the process. When cooled to room temperature, the polyurethane prepolymer was dispersed in deionized water and stirred vigorously for 1h. Subsequently, ethylenediamine was added for 30min of back chain extension. Finally, acetone was removed from the mixture by a rotary evaporator. Then, a defoamer, a surfactant and a dispersant were added to the organosilicon-modified WPU solution and ultrasonically stirred to obtain a silicone waterborne polyurethane coating.
