Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of textiles, and particularly relates to a fluorine-free one-way moisture transfer finishing process for woven fabrics. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, people pay more and more attention to the functional connotation of clothing. After a hot environment or a lot of exercise, the skin will sweat a lot. If the sweat is not quickly discharged, it will cause the skin to appear sticky in the process of accumulation, as if the clothes are stuck to the body. The sweat is attracted by the clothes, which may further increase the weight of the clothes, causing more serious discomfort. In order to reduce the moisture content of the skin side, ensure the transmission of water vapor, improve the comfort of wearing, realize the point hydrophobic performance of the fabric surface, and make the fabric obtain excellent one-way moisture transfer function, the current one-way moisture transfer finished fabric uses fluorine-containing water-repellent agent for finishing. Due to the high bond energy of C-F bond, the fluorine-containing water-repellent agent can significantly reduce the surface free energy of the textile, and show superior water-repellent performance in one-way moisture transfer finishing. However, the fluorine-containing water-repellent agent has physiological toxicity and environmental degradation problems, and basically contains PFOA, PFOS and other substances. These substances will accumulate in the environment for a long time, and have poor environmental performance. More importantly, they have been proven to have negative effects such as carcinogenicity, and have been banned by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and others.
[0003] Patent CN114836996A discloses a preparation method of a fabric with one-way moisture transfer and waterproof and stain-proof double functions, comprising the following steps: (1) fabric weaving: weaving a multi-layer fabric with one-way moisture transfer function, the fabric comprising inner layer water-repellent fibers and outer layer hydrophilic or moisture transfer fibers; (2) selective printing: selectively coating a slurry containing a waterproof additive on the outer layer of the fabric to form a waterproof coating, leaving a micro window channel with micropores or grooves; and drying and curing after forming the waterproof coating. This technical process is complex, including the weaving of multi-layer fabric, the selective coating of waterproof additive, and many restrictions on the base fabric and additive, and does not have universality.
[0004] In the existing one-way moisture transfer technology, a large amount of fluorine-containing materials are used, which is harmful to the environment, and it is difficult to realize one-way moisture transfer in the form of printing on woven fabrics. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a fluorine-free one-way moisture transfer finishing process for woven fabrics. SUMMARY

[0043] (2) The preferred fluorine-free waterproofing agent ZELAN R3 is made of renewable raw materials extracted from plants, about 60% of which are renewable resources, and is safe and environmentally friendly.
[0044] (3) Since woven fabrics are more compact and thinner than knitted fabrics, the diffusion capacity of sweat or moisture is limited, and unidirectional moisture transfer printing is more difficult, the development of unidirectional moisture transfer textiles for woven fabrics is still a market blank. This technology mainly relies on rotary screen printing machines to realize single-sided treatment of the fabric, so that the front and back of the fabric form a hydrophobic-hydrophilic wetting gradient, also known as differential capillary effect, thereby ensuring the unidirectional transmission of moisture or sweat - from the inner layer (intimate layer) of the fabric to the outer layer (non-intimate layer, diffusion layer) of the fabric, and the moisture or sweat in the outer layer is difficult to penetrate back to the inner layer. Unidirectional moisture transfer textiles not only have excellent moisture absorption and quick drying effect, but also can ensure the dryness and cleanliness of the human microenvironment.
[0045] (4) The fluorine-free unidirectional moisture transfer finishing process for woven fabrics of the present application has simple steps and mild conditions, and is suitable for market promotion. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0095] Comparative Example 1
[0096] The same as Example 1, the no-fluorine water-proofing assistant ZELAN R3 in printing was replaced by no-fluorine water-proofing assistant WELGUARD WR-7000, and the finished product was prepared.
[0097] Comparative Example 2
[0098] The same as example 2, the functional assistant HSD in the tentering process is replaced by MAS to produce the finished product.
[0099] Comparative example 3
[0100] The same as example 3, the magnetic bar in the printing process is adjusted from 10# to 12# to produce the finished product.
[0101] The finished products produced by the above examples and comparative examples are subjected to the liquid moisture management properties of the fabric, and the detection standard is AATCC 195-2009, and the detection results are shown in the following table.
[0102] Table 2 detection results
[0103]
[0104] From the above experiments and tables, it can be seen that in comparative example 1, the fluorine-free waterproofing agent is adjusted from R3 to WR-7000, and because the compatibility of WR-7000 with the thickening system is not good, the comprehensive moisture transfer and quick drying ability of the fabric is poor. In comparative example 2, the functional assistant HSD in the tentering process is replaced by the water-absorbing softener MAS, which greatly affects the performance of the fluorine-free waterproofing agent, resulting in poor comprehensive moisture transfer and quick drying ability of the fabric. In comparative example 3, the magnetic bar during printing is adjusted from 10# to 12#, which will cause the waterproofing agent to penetrate to the other side of the fabric, the water absorption of the moisture transfer and hydrophilic surface is poor, and the comprehensive moisture transfer and quick drying ability of the fabric is poor. Therefore, the woven one-way moisture transfer fabric produced by the woven fabric one-way moisture transfer finishing process of the application has higher comprehensive moisture transfer and quick drying ability, stronger wash resistance and longer lasting effect than the fabric of the same finishing method without using the technology.
