Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of super-biphobic materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a breathable and antibacterial super-biphobic fabric. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fabric is an important decoration and protection material in daily life, and is widely used due to its breathability and softness. However, the fabric surface contains a large number of active groups, which is easy to be contaminated and corroded. More importantly, the breathability and moisture absorption of the fabric create good conditions for the growth of bacteria, which poses a potential threat to human health. In addition, the large amount of washing of cotton fabric not only wastes water resources, but also causes environmental pollution due to the use of chemical detergents. Therefore, it is of great practical and application significance to develop multifunctional cotton fabric with self-cleaning properties.

[0003] There are lotus leaves with self-cleaning properties in nature, and super-hydrophobic materials with "lotus effect" have attracted extensive attention of researchers. However, the lipophilicity of such materials in air seriously limits their practicality in oil-polluted environments. In recent years, inspired by the super-hydrophobic and oleophobic surface of the popillia japonica, the design of super-biphobic materials has attracted the attention of researchers. Super-biphobic surface refers to a surface with a contact angle of more than 150° to aqueous and oily liquids and a rolling angle of less than 10°, which has great potential applications in self-cleaning, anti-fouling, enhanced buoyancy, anti-icing, personal protection, drag reduction, corrosion protection and liquid transportation. In view of this, the combination of super-biphobic surface and fabric is considered as a promising method for manufacturing self-cleaning textiles.

[0004] So far, the preparation process of super-biphobic fabric mostly needs expensive and toxic reagents, and the preparation process is complicated, which is not conducive to environmental friendliness and large-area preparation. For example, the document with the application number 201811399357.6 discloses a multifunctional super-biphobic fabric and its preparation method and application: the fabric is reacted with mercaptosiloxane and tetraethyl orthosilicate in an ammonia atmosphere, and then a click chemistry reaction is carried out with a fluorine-containing double bond compound under the catalysis of a photoinitiator to prepare a super-biphobic fabric. However, this method uses toxic ammonia and tetrahydrofuran, and the use of expensive reagents and harsh reaction conditions limit its large-scale application. On the other hand, the modification of fabric to super-biphobicity usually significantly reduces the breathability. From the perspective of wearing comfort, the loss of fabric breathability should be minimized during the modification of super-biphobicity. In addition, from the perspective of health, the antibacterial activity of super-biphobic fabric during the modification process can effectively offset the harm of bacteria to human body. Therefore, it is of great application value to prepare multifunctional super-biphobic fabric with breathability, antibacterial activity and self-cleaning properties. However, it is still a great challenge to use low-cost materials and simple methods to realize these properties of fabric at the same time. SUMMARY

[0011] Step 5: Dissolve PVDF-HFP and FAS in an organic solvent to obtain a homogeneous fluorinated liquid; then immerse the fabric obtained in step 4 in the fluorinated liquid to reduce the surface energy of the fabric surface; after the immersion is completed, the fabric is taken out and placed at room temperature for 5-30 min to preliminarily volatilize the organic solvent, thereby preliminarily forming a film on the surface of the fabric; then place the fabric at 100-150 DEG C for 0.5-2 h to volatilize the remaining organic solvent, thereby completing the film formation on the surface of the fabric to obtain a breathable antibacterial super-amphiphobic fabric.

[0067] Example 1

[0068] (1) At room temperature, 40 mg of dopamine hydrochloride was dissolved in 40 ml of NaOH solution with pH of 8.5 to obtain a dopamine solution; then a 4x4 cm original fabric was immersed in the dopamine solution and stirred at a stirring speed of 300 rpm for 24 h, so that the dopamine on the surface of the original fabric was subjected to a self-polymerization grafting reaction to generate polydopamine; after the completion of the immersion, the fabric was taken out and washed with deionized water to remove the polydopamine which was not firmly combined on the surface, and then dried at room temperature;

[0069] (2) At room temperature, 80 mg of PTFE nanoparticles with an average particle size of 200 nm were ultrasonically dispersed in 40 ml of anhydrous ethanol at a power of 600 W for 30 min to obtain a uniformly dispersed PTFE dispersion liquid; then the fabric obtained in step 1 was immersed in the PTFE dispersion liquid for 2 h, so that the fabric surface was fully loaded with PTFE nanoparticles;

[0070] (3) At room temperature, 40 μL of bPEI with a relative molecular mass of 20000 was dissolved in 10 ml of NaOH solution with pH of 8.5 to obtain a bPEI solution; then the fabric obtained in step 2 was immersed in the bPEI solution for 1 h, so that the bPEI was grafted on the fabric surface in situ through Schiff base and Michael addition reactions; after the completion of the immersion, the fabric was taken out and washed to remove the bPEI which was not firmly combined on the surface of the fabric;

[0071] (4) At room temperature, 125 mg of SiO2 nanoparticles with an average particle size of 20 nm and 500 mg of ODA were dispersed in 50 ml of anhydrous ethanol and ultrasonically dispersed at a power of 600 W for 30 min to obtain a uniformly dispersed SiO2 / ODA dispersion liquid; then the dispersion liquid was allowed to stand for 10 min to allow the ODA to self-assemble on the surface of the SiO2 nanoparticles to generate SiO2 / ODA aggregates; subsequently, the fabric obtained in step 3 was immersed in the standing dispersion liquid for 2 h, so that the SiO2 / ODA aggregates were deposited on the surface of the fabric;

[0072] (5) 250 mg of PVDF-HFP and 150 μL of 1H,1H,2H,2H-Perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane were dissolved in 10 ml of N,N dimethylformamide at 50 °C to obtain a homogeneous fluorinated solution; then the fabric obtained in step 4 was immersed in the fluorinated solution at room temperature for 5 min to reduce the surface energy of the fabric surface; after immersion, the fabric was taken out, the surface liquid drops were dropped dry, and then placed at room temperature for 10 min for preliminary volatilization of the organic solvent, thereby preliminarily forming a film on the fabric surface; then placed at 130 °C for 30 min for volatilization of the remaining N,N dimethylformamide, thereby completing the film formation on the fabric surface, to obtain a breathable and antibacterial super-amphiphobic fabric.

[0079] From Figure 8 and Figure 9It can be seen that the original fabric has no antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus because the original fabric does not contain antibacterial substances. The presence of amine substances and long-chain alkane antibacterial materials in the super-biphobic fabric exhibits good antibacterial activity, with an antibacterial rate of 99.1% against E. coli and 99.9% against S. aureus.
