Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of fabric water management, and particularly relates to a completely biodegradable backflow-proof directional water transmission composite material and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] In hot climates, the moisture absorption and perspiration-wicking properties of clothing can bring people a comfortable and refreshing experience. Functional textiles with moisture absorption technology can provide a quick drying effect in a hot and humid environment by transporting liquid water (such as sweat) and water vapor from the human body to the environment, thereby creating a comfortable experience. With the intensification of the greenhouse effect caused by human industrial activities and environmental damage, the demand for quick drying performance of clothing is increasing, which has prompted researchers to continuously work on improving the moisture absorption properties of textiles. The materials on the market today can provide different levels of moisture absorption capacity, but their moisture transfer is bidirectional and there is no prevention of reverse water penetration, which means that during the moisture transfer process, the inside of the textile will still be wetted and attached to the body. Therefore, it is necessary to develop functional fabrics with directional water transport (DWT) properties.

[0003] Unlike materials with uniform wettability, materials with unidirectional transport properties are able to exhibit unidirectionality because they are constructed based on a wettability gradient. The wettability gradient is the driving force for the spontaneous movement of liquid on both sides of the material. The driving force comes from three aspects: first, the driving effect of the lyophobic layer. The breakthrough pressure from the lyophobic layer to the lyophilic layer is much lower than in the opposite direction; second, the capillary force of the lyophilic layer, which has a push-pull induction effect on the liquid from the lyophobic layer to the lyophilic layer; and finally, the pressure difference generated by the curved liquid surface. Therefore, the driving force generated by the gravity of the droplet and the wettability gradient can drag the liquid from the lyophobic layer to the pore section of the lyophilic layer. The lyophilic pores then pull the liquid toward the lyophilic layer, resulting in a directional transfer of the liquid, which cannot move in the opposite direction without applying external force. Therefore, the development of a new directional water-conducting material has good application prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0013] The plant fiber pulp described in step (1) is a bleached pulp of coniferous wood, broadleaved wood, bamboo or other types of plant fibers, or an unbleached pulp of coniferous wood, broadleaved wood, bamboo or other types of plant fibers; preferably, it is at least one of bleached coniferous wood pulp, unbleached coniferous wood pulp, bleached broadleaved wood pulp, unbleached broadleaved wood pulp, bleached bamboo pulp and unbleached bamboo pulp; more preferably, it is at least one of bleached coniferous wood pulp, unbleached coniferous wood pulp and bleached bamboo pulp.

[0014] The beating degree of the plant fiber pulp in step (1) is preferably 28°SR to 42°SR.

[0015] The stirring time in step (1) is 20 to 30 minutes, preferably 20 minutes.

[0017] The mass ratio of the plant fiber pulp to the polylactic acid in step (1) is (4:6) to (9:1); preferably (5:5) to (7:3).

[0023] The clothing with waterproof function includes underwear or quick-drying clothing for exercise and the like.

[0024] The present invention has the following advantages and effects compared to the prior art:

[0025] 1. The present invention uses plant fiber pulp with a hydrophilic modifier as the hydrophilic layer, and a composite layer of plant fiber pulp and polylactic acid as the transfer layer. The paper is made into paper in one step using a traditional papermaking method, with the upper layer of the paper sheet being the hydrophilic layer and the lower layer being the transfer layer. The paper is then composited with a polylactic acid non-woven fabric as the hydrophobic layer, and subjected to composite pressing to obtain a completely biodegradable anti-backflow directional water transfer composite material. That is, in order to increase the breakthrough pressure from the lyophilic layer to the lyophobic layer, the present invention adds a transfer layer between the hydrophilic layer and the hydrophobic layer, thereby improving the material's ability to prevent moisture backflow.

[0026] 2. The present invention utilizes the different wetting properties of plant fibers and polylactic acid to generate a wetting gradient. The designed three-layer structure is that the plant fiber layer serves as the hydrophilic layer (upper layer), the plant fiber and polylactic acid composite layer serves as the transfer layer (middle layer), and the polylactic acid non-woven fabric serves as the hydrophobic layer (bottom layer). The setting of the transfer layer gives the material excellent anti-backflow performance and one-way transport performance.

[0027] 3. The raw materials (plant fiber and polylactic acid) and auxiliary materials used in the present invention are completely biodegradable. The prepared directional moisture transfer material is completely biodegradable, and polylactic acid has good biocompatibility. Plant fiber, because of its rich hydrogen bonds, can absorb a large amount of water molecules and has good water absorption. Therefore, applying plant fiber and polylactic acid to Janus membrane technology can make good use of the characteristics of both to prepare a new three-layer structure directional water transfer membrane.

[0028] 4. The present invention uses substrates with different hydrophilicities to construct a wettability gradient; constructs a pore size gradient by controlling the beating degree; and adds a transfer layer to prevent water backflow, all of which improve its unidirectional water-conducting performance.

[0095] Effect embodiment

[0096] (1) Test method

[0097] The one-way transfer index, diffusion area of the upper and lower surfaces, water transfer time, and breakthrough pressure of the fully biodegradable anti-backflow directional water transfer composite materials prepared in Examples 1 to 5 and the materials prepared in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were measured.

[0098] The unidirectional transfer index and the diffusion area of the upper and lower surfaces are determined according to GB / T21655.2-2019 "Evaluation of Moisture Absorption and Quick-drying Properties of Textiles Part 2: Dynamic Moisture Transfer Method".

[0099] The water transport time test method is as follows: The water transport time is measured using an optical contact angle / surface tension meter. The time is measured from the moment the water droplet contacts the directional water transport film until the water contact angle reaches 0°. Three replicates are set.

[0100] The breakthrough pressure is obtained by measuring the maximum water column height that the material can withstand. During the measurement process, water is added at a rate of 20 mL min -1 Load the material onto one side of the membrane at a flow rate of 100 nm and record the minimum pressure at which water begins to penetrate the membrane as the breakthrough pressure. Repeat three times.

[0101] (2) Test results

[0102] The one-way transmission index is an important indicator to measure the unidirectional water conduction ability of a material. The one-way transmission index is shown in Table 1. The area of water diffusion on the upper and lower surfaces of the material will also directly affect the wearing comfort of the user. The diffusion area of the upper and lower surfaces of the material is shown in Table 2. The directional water transmission time is shown in Table 3. In order to prove that water is prevented from passing through the three-layer fiber membrane in the reverse direction, the penetration pressure from the polylactic acid side (positive direction) and the plant fiber side (reverse direction) was measured, and the results are shown in Table 4. The original test data results of the directional water transmission composite material prepared in Example 3 are shown in Table 4. Figure 1 As shown, the directional water transport time of the directional water transport composite materials prepared in Examples 1 to 5 is as follows Figure 2 As shown. The results show that the water-transmitting composite materials prepared in Examples 1 to 5 all have excellent unidirectional water-conducting properties. This is because the prepared materials use substrates with different hydrophilicities to construct a wettability gradient, and by controlling the beating degree to construct a pore size gradient. In addition, a transfer layer is added to prevent water backflow, all of which improve their unidirectional water-conducting performance. However, the unidirectional water-conducting ability of the material prepared in Comparative Example 1 is too poor. Therefore, the three indicators of unidirectional transfer index, water transfer time, and directional breakthrough pressure cannot be detected.
