Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of artificial spinning fibers, in particular to a moisture-absorbing and breathable bamboo fiber quilt core and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of people's living standards, "healthy sleep" has now become a life concept advocated by society. Due to the fast pace of life and high pressure of people in today's society, sleep quality is a necessary guarantee for providing sufficient energy for the day, and people's demand for various special functional textiles is increasing.

[0003] In order to improve people's sleep quality, more and more textiles made of plant fibers are emerging. At present, quilt cores based on modified bamboo fibers are attracting more and more attention. Because bamboo fibers have good moisture absorption, soft hand feel and comfortable touch, the fabrics made of them are comfortable, smooth, breathable and drapey. In addition, bamboo fibers can be spun pure or blended or interwoven with cotton, wool, silk, linen, chemical fiber and other fibers, and have very good spinnability, further improving its wide range of applications.

[0004] At present, as the moisture absorption and breathability of natural bamboo fibers will begin to decrease over time, in order to improve the functionality of textile fiber quilts, bamboo fibers are modified into bamboo-plastic composite fibers to improve their moisture absorption and breathability effects.

[0005] However, since a large number of hydrophilic groups on the surface of cellulose and hemicellulose give the natural fiber a hydrophilic nature, and since the abundant non-polar groups on the surface of the polymer give the polymer a strong hydrophobic property, the prepared bamboo-plastic composite fiber is affected by the poor interface compatibility inside, so that the bamboo-plastic composite fiber often exhibits poor mechanical properties, affecting the service life of the textile fiber. The present application provides a solution that can increase the moisture absorption and air permeability of bamboo fiber and can maintain the moisture absorption and air permeability effect of the quilt core for a long time. Summary of the invention

[0006] The present application provides a moisture-absorbing and breathable bamboo fiber quilt core and a preparation method thereof, which can increase the moisture absorption and breathability of the bamboo fiber, and at the same time maintain good moisture absorption and breathability effects even after multiple washings and sun exposure.

[0007] On the one hand, the present application provides a moisture-absorbing and breathable bamboo fiber quilt core, comprising a quilt core cover and a quilt core filler filled in the quilt core cover; the quilt core filler mainly comprises bamboo-plastic composite fiber and cotton fiber; the raw materials of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber include: bamboo fiber, modified polymer, buffer solution, dispersant, deionized water and ethanol; the raw materials of the modified polymer include acrylamide monomer having phenolic hydroxyl group.

[0008] By adopting the above technical scheme, the present application adopts acrylamide monomers with phenolic hydroxyl groups to polymerize into modified polymers as the modification of bamboo-plastic composite fibers. Since the phenolic hydroxyl groups can be loaded onto the surface of bamboo fibers in the form of hydrogen bonding, the process of modifying bamboo fibers is gentle, and the structure of bamboo fibers themselves will not be damaged, so that the inherent characteristics of bamboo fibers are well preserved. The polarity of the surface of bamboo fibers is reduced by the reaction, which helps to improve the compatibility of polymers with bamboo fibers, and is conducive to strengthening the mechanical interlocking effect between bamboo fibers and modified polymers, thereby increasing the moisture absorption and air permeability of bamboo fibers, and maintaining the moisture absorption and air permeability of the quilt core for a long time.

[0009] Preferably, the acrylamide monomers having phenolic hydroxyl groups include N-(2,5-dihydroxy-4-acrylamidemethylbenzyl)acrylamide, N-(3,4-dihydroxy-6-acrylamidemethylbenzyl)acrylamide, N-(2,3,4-trihydroxy-5-acrylamidemethylbenzyl)acrylamide and N-(2,4-dihydroxy-5-acrylamidemethylbenzyl)acrylamide.

[0010] Preferably, each of the acrylamide monomers having a phenolic hydroxyl group is synthesized by respectively synthesizing catechol, hydroquinone, resorcinol and pyrogallol with N-methylacetamide.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, since the hydroxyl group on the phenolic hydroxyl group has good adhesion and reduction properties, the acrylamide monomer with phenolic hydroxyl group is generally used in current antifouling coatings, and is now also used in the field of antibacterial coatings. The present application is directed to connecting the hydroxyl group on the phenolic hydroxyl group with the hydroxyl group on the surface of the bamboo fiber through hydrogen bonds, making the process of modifying the bamboo fiber gentle and preserving the inherent properties of the bamboo fiber.

[0012] Preferably, the initiator for polymerizing the acrylamide monomer having a phenolic hydroxyl group into the modified polymer is azobisisoheptonitrile.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the present application uses azobisisoheptanenitrile to polymerize acrylamide monomers having phenolic hydroxyl groups, thereby making the hydroxyl groups of the polymer evenly distributed, which is helpful for fixation on the surface of bamboo fiber.

[0014] Preferably, the buffer is one of TBE buffer, TAE buffer and MOPS buffer.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, TBE buffer, TAE buffer and MOPS buffer are widely used in the fields of molecular biology, protein analysis, cell culture, etc. In order to enable the hydroxyl groups on the modified polymer to be loaded on the surface of bamboo fiber through hydrogen bonds, the pH value in the solution is stabilized by the buffer. In addition, TBE buffer, TAE buffer and MOPS buffer are all weakly alkaline, which helps the modified polymer to be loaded on the surface of bamboo fiber in a weakly alkaline environment.

[0016] Preferably, the dispersant includes one or more of polyethylene, polypropylene, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

[0017] On the other hand, the present application provides a method for preparing a moisture-absorbing and breathable bamboo fiber quilt core, comprising the following steps: S1, preparation of acrylamide monomer: adding catechol, hydroquinone, resorcinol and pyrogallol to anhydrous ethanol in a molar ratio of 2:1, respectively, and performing ultrasonic treatment until the raw materials are completely dissolved, performing mechanical stirring at 25°C-45°C, setting the speed to 500rpm-1000rpm, and slowly adding a certain amount of concentrated sulfuric acid, waiting for 72-1 44h, after stopping stirring, wait for precipitation for 12-36h, and filter by suction, remove the filtrate, wash with ion water for 3-5 times until the pH of the removed filtrate is 7, and then recrystallize the acrylamide monomer to obtain an acrylamide monomer with phenolic hydroxyl groups; S2, preparation of modified polymer: mix the acrylamide monomer with phenolic hydroxyl groups with anhydrous ethanol in proportion, control the temperature at 60°C-80°C, dissolve it by ultrasonic treatment, cool it to 20°C-30°C, add initiator azobisisoheptonitrile, The mixture was then subjected to ultrasonic treatment and dissolved, and finally heated to 60-80°C for precipitation polymerization, and the temperature was kept constant for 8-12 hours, and centrifuged for 0.5-1 hour at a speed of 5000-8000 rpm, and finally washed three times with anhydrous ethanol to obtain a modified polymer; S3, pretreatment of bamboo fiber: natural raw bamboo was split into bamboo slices and crushed into bamboo filaments, and then immersed in a mixed solution of deionized water and anhydrous ethanol with a volume ratio of 50% for washing 3-5 times; the cleaned bamboo filaments were then immersed in a solution containing raw bamboo slices and crushed into bamboo filaments; S4, preparation of bamboo-plastic composite fiber: dissolving the modified polymer in deionized water, adding the pretreated bamboo fiber in proportion, adding a certain amount of buffer and dispersant, controlling the pH value between 8 and 9, and stirring the mixed solution at a speed of 4000 rpm-6000 rpm for 18 h-28 h at a certain temperature, and washing with deionized water to obtain bamboo-plastic composite fiber.

[0018] Preferably, the preparation method of the quilt core filling is as follows: the bamboo-plastic composite fiber and cotton fiber are wound, stretched, and combed, and the bamboo fiber quilt core cover is cut into a required size and sewn into a quilt cover with an open end, and the quilt core filling is put into the bamboo fiber quilt core cover, and sewn with a quilting line to obtain a bamboo fiber quilt core.

[0019] One or more technical solutions provided in this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0020] 1. The present application adopts acrylamide monomers with phenolic hydroxyl groups to polymerize into modified polymers as the modification of bamboo-plastic composite fibers. The phenolic hydroxyl groups can be loaded onto the surface of bamboo fibers through hydrogen bonding, thereby making the process of modifying bamboo fibers gentle and not damaging the structure of bamboo fibers themselves, thereby preserving the inherent properties of bamboo fibers intact, thereby increasing the moisture absorption and breathability of bamboo fibers and maintaining the moisture absorption and breathability of the quilt core for a long time.

[0021] 2. The present application uses azobisisoheptylnitrile to polymerize acrylamide monomers having phenolic hydroxyl groups, thereby making the hydroxyl groups of the polymer evenly distributed, which helps to fix it on the surface of bamboo fiber.

[0022] 3. The present application stabilizes the pH value in the solution by using TBE buffer, TAE buffer and MOPS buffer, thereby making the TBE buffer, TAE buffer and MOPS buffer keep the solution in a weak alkaline state, thereby facilitating the loading of the modified polymer on the surface of the bamboo fiber under a weak alkaline environment.

[0063] The difference between Example 3 and Example 1 is that the modified polymer is synthesized by polymerization of N-(2,4-dihydroxy-5-acrylamidomethylbenzyl)acrylamide.

[0064] The difference between Example 4 and Example 1 is that the modified polymer is synthesized by polymerization of N-(2,3,4-trihydroxy-5-acrylamidemethylbenzyl)acrylamide.

[0065] Comparative Example

[0066] Comparative Example 1-2

[0067] The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that commercially available bamboo raw fibers for making bamboo fiber quilt cores are used, and the quilt core filling is obtained by winding the bamboo raw fibers with cotton fibers, and then stretching and combing.

[0068] The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that the bamboo fibers are modified by using thermoplastic water-based polyurethane which is widely available on the market.

[0069] Performance testing

[0070] In order to further study the effects of various components and preparation parameters on the moisture-absorbing and breathable bamboo fiber quilt core, the present application further carries out the following examples for verification.

[0071] According to Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2, the bamboo fiber quilt cores prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples were tested for their moisture absorption, air permeability and warmth retention properties after multiple washings and sun exposure.

[0072] Specifically, the composite fiber core was divided into two groups for experiments, one of which was set as Group A, and its moisture absorption, breathability and thermal insulation performance were observed after multiple washes; the other group was set as Group B, and its moisture absorption, breathability and thermal insulation performance were observed after multiple sun exposures.

[0073] The A group was washed according to the method in GB / T8629-2017 "Household Washing and Drying Procedure for Textile Testing", with a washing degree of 5N, and washed 0, 20, 50, and 100 times respectively. The washed composite fiber inner core was dried and placed in an environment of 20°C and 70% relative humidity for 24 hours. The B group was covered with an inner core cover on the outside and placed in an environment of 30°C and 55% relative humidity, and exposed to the sun for a total of 0h, 6h, 36h, and 120h. The moisture absorption, breathability, and contact warmth of the bamboo fiber quilt cores of the A and B groups were tested respectively.

[0074] 1. Air permeability test: With reference to the national standard GB / T 5453-1997, the sample pressure difference is 150Pa. Under constant temperature and humidity conditions of 25°C and 60% humidity, the air permeability of the bamboo fiber quilt cores of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2 is tested using a fully automatic air permeability tester.

[0075] 2. Thermal insulation performance test: The test is carried out in accordance with GB / T11048-2009 "Test method for thermal insulation performance of textiles". The flat-plate constant temperature difference heat dissipation method is adopted to calculate the percentage of the difference between the heat dissipation when there is no sample and the heat dissipation when there is a sample and the ratio of the heat dissipation when there is no sample.

[0076] Table 1, Performance test table of Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2

[0077]

[0078] Thermal insulation performance test: unit is H insulation rate / %

[0079] Air permeability test: The unit is K air permeability / (mm / s)

[0080] Conclusion Analysis

[0081] According to the above test, the air permeability and thermal insulation performance of the bamboo fiber quilt core prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2 after multiple washings are analyzed. Among them, compared with the comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Examples 1-4, Comparative Example 1 uses a quilt core filling material made by winding, stretching and combing commercially available bamboo fibers and cotton fibers, and the air permeability and thermal insulation performance of the quilt core are worse than those of Examples 1-4. Moreover, after multiple washings, the air permeability and thermal insulation performance of the bamboo fiber quilt core of Comparative Example 1 decrease faster, which is because the surface of the bamboo fiber has irregular oval or elliptical pores in cross section, which makes it easy to tear during the washing process.

[0082] Compared with Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 2 uses the more widely used thermoplastic water-based polyurethane on the market to modify the bamboo fiber, and has good air permeability and thermal insulation performance. However, after washing 50 times and more than 100 times, the air permeability and thermal insulation performance of the bamboo fiber quilt core of Comparative Example 2 began to decline significantly. This is because the interface compatibility between the bamboo fiber and the polymer is not strong, which leads to separation between the bamboo fiber surface and the polymer during the washing process, reducing the air permeability and thermal insulation performance.

[0083] And by analyzing Examples 1-4, it can be concluded that when the modified polymer is synthesized using N-(3,4-dihydroxy-6-acrylamidomethylbenzyl)acrylamide as the polymer monomer raw material, it can have better air permeability and thermal insulation performance. This is because the phenolic hydroxyl group is an electron-repelling group, which can increase the electron cloud density of the carbon atoms in the ortho-para positions of the positioning substituent, making the connection between the phenolic hydroxyl group and the hydroxyl group on the bamboo fiber more stable.

[0084] On the other hand, the present application analyzes the air permeability and warmth retention performance of the bamboo fiber quilt cores prepared in Examples 1-4 and Comparative Examples 1-2 after prolonged exposure to the sun. Observing the two sets of data analysis of Group B, the surface of the bamboo fiber in the bamboo fiber quilt core in Comparative Example 1 after exposure to the sun is damaged, resulting in a decrease in its air permeability and warmth retention performance after exposure to the sun. In addition, the thermoplastic waterborne polyurethane in Comparative Example 2 modifies the bamboo fiber, and due to temperature and ultraviolet radiation, the interfacial compatibility between the bamboo fiber and the thermoplastic polymer becomes poor.

[0085] In addition, according to Examples 1-4, it can be seen that when the modified polymer is synthesized using N-(3,4-dihydroxy-6-acrylamidomethylbenzyl)acrylamide as the polymer monomer raw material, it can have better air permeability and thermal insulation performance. In summary, Example 1 is the best example.

[0086] Embodiment 5-6

[0087] Example 5

[0088] The difference between Example 5 and Example 1 is that, in the process of preparing the bamboo-plastic composite fiber, the buffer used is TAE buffer.

[0089] Example 6

[0090] The difference between Example 6 and Example 1 is that, in the preparation process of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber, the buffer used is MOPS buffer.

[0091] In the synthesis process of Example 1 and Examples 5-6, a weakly alkaline environment is provided for the synthesis process of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber by adding a buffer, so that the modified polymer is loaded on the surface of the bamboo fiber. After multiple experiments, it was found that the buffer used was TAE buffer, which had a better loading effect. Although the final test results of the three are relatively close, compared with Example 1 and Example 6, the generation of precipitation in the solution can be reduced, thereby improving the utilization rate of resources, so Example 5 is the best embodiment.

[0092] Embodiment 7-9

[0093] Example 7

[0094] The difference between Example 7 and Example 5 is that, in the preparation process of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber, polypropylene is used as the dispersant.

[0095] Example 8

[0096] The difference between Example 8 and Example 5 is that, in the preparation process of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber, the dispersant used is ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer.

[0097] Example 9

[0098] The difference between Example 9 and Example 5 is that, in the preparation process of the bamboo-plastic composite fiber, the dispersant used is ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer.

[0099] From the analysis between Example 5 and Examples 7-9, it can be concluded that in the preparation process of bamboo-plastic composite fibers, the dispersant helps to improve the uniformity of bamboo fibers and modified polymers in the spinning solution, thereby increasing the ability of the modified polymers to adhere to the bamboo fibers.

[0100] After testing, it can be concluded that the difference in dispersants has little effect on the improvement of air permeability and warmth retention, because the dispersant does not participate in the reaction between the bamboo fiber and the modified polymer. However, the improvement of the dispersant can improve the uniformity of the modified polymer loaded on the bamboo fiber. When polypropylene is used as the dispersant, the texture of the obtained bamboo-plastic composite fiber is the best, and it is more suitable for covering the human body. Therefore, Example 7 is the best example of this application.
