Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a bio-based self-crosslinking pigment, and belongs to the fields of textile dyeing and finishing, fine chemicals and engineering manufacturing. Background Art

[0002] At present, the harm to the environment caused by the production and use of pigments is mainly reflected in resource consumption, waste generation, and possible emission of toxic and hazardous substances. In the production process of traditional pigments, non-renewable mineral resources are often used as raw materials, and the mining of these resources often causes damage to the ecological environment and resource depletion. In the process of pigment production, wastewater, waste gas and solid waste are also generated. If not properly handled, these wastes will pollute the soil, water sources and air, posing a serious threat to the ecosystem and human health. In addition, some pigments themselves or their metabolites are toxic. If they are not strictly managed and controlled during use, they may accumulate and amplify through the food chain, causing long-term negative impacts on the environment and biodiversity. Traditional bio-based, because the pigment has no interaction with the target substrate, it is necessary to add substances such as cross-linking agents during use, which further increases the environmental burden of pigment use.

[0003] In response to these problems, some researchers have simply extracted colored substances from animals and plants to prepare natural pigments, thereby reducing harm to the environment. However, traditional natural pigments have poor color fastness due to the lack of interaction with the substrate, so they have not been used on a large scale. In order to further increase color fastness and dyeing rate, a large amount of adhesives, color fixing agents, etc. need to be added during the printing and dyeing process, which inadvertently increases the difficulty of wastewater treatment after the use of the pigment. Summary of the invention

[0004] Technical issues:

[0005] In view of the problems that existing natural pigments have poor color fastness and need to add additional additives such as fixing agents during use, a bio-based self-cross-linking pigment with low biotoxicity, good stability, natural degradation and good environment is provided. The color-forming component of the pigment is a natural bio-based colorant, which can be spontaneously fixed after printing and dyeing. No additional fixing agent needs to be added during use. After printing and dyeing, it can have good color fastness without washing. While improving color fastness, it ensures excellent adhesion and chemical resistance, thereby enhancing the applicability and reliability of the pigment.

[0006] Technical conception:

[0007] The natural vinyl porphyrin colored substance selected by the present invention has the characteristics of bright color and easy polymerization under alkaline conditions, and is commonly found in various green plant leaves, microbial body fluids and animal blood in nature. Based on free radical polymerization, natural vinyl porphyrin is polymerized with ethylene polymerizable monomers to prepare thermoplastic color latex particle pigments, which can be dried and stored after acid washing. After being configured as a printing and dyeing liquid, the target substrate is colored, and after baking, the cross-linking and color fixing can be achieved. The bio-based self-cross-linking pigment has good color fastness and avoids the drawbacks of poor color fastness of bio-based dyes on the market and the need to add additional color fixing agents during printing and dyeing.

[0008] Technical solution:

[0009] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0010] The invention provides a method for preparing a bio-based self-crosslinking pigment, which uses bio-based materials as colorants to prepare a self-crosslinking polymer pigment.

[0011] Preferably, the preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0012] 1) mixing 10-80 parts of polymerizable monomers, 30-100 parts of water, 1-5 parts of alkali agent, 3-50 parts of bio-based colorant, and 0-2 parts of buffer, and introducing inert gas into the system for protection;

[0013] 2) Raise the temperature while stirring, add a proper amount of polymerization initiator when the temperature reaches 55-95°C, keep warm and continue stirring for 4-24 hours to carry out polymerization reaction;

[0014] 3) After the reaction solution is cooled to room temperature, it is filtered using filter paper, acid-washed and neutralized, separated and dried to obtain a bio-based self-crosslinking pigment.

[0015] The polymer pigment is a substance obtained by copolymerizing a bio-based colorant with a polymerizable monomer, coating the bio-based colorant with the monomer, and coating the bio-based colorant after copolymerization.

[0016] The bio-based material is a vinyl-containing porphyrin ring substance, and specifically, natural vinyl-containing porphyrin ring substances such as hemin chloride and chlorophyll can be selected.

[0017] Preferably, the natural vinyl-containing porphyrin ring substances do not contain the three functional groups of azo bond, nitro group and amino group.

[0018] The polymerizable monomers are styrene, acrylic acid, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate and derivatives thereof.

[0019] The carbon chain length of the polymerizable monomer is no more than 10 carbon atoms.

[0020] The glass transition temperature of the polymerized material is between 45 and 100 degrees Celsius.

[0021] The bio-based colorant accounts for no less than 1% and no more than 70% of the total mass of the polymerizable monomer and the bio-based colorant; more preferably, the proportion is no less than 10% and no more than 50%.

[0022] The alkali agent is sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, weak alkaline sodium silicate, and sodium acetate.

[0023] The polymerization initiator is sodium persulfate, potassium persulfate, azoisobutyl cyanide. The mass ratio of the polymerization initiator to the total mass of the polymerizable monomer and the bio-based colorant is 1: (8-130).

[0024] The polymerization environment is a weakly alkaline environment, and the pH value of the system is 7.1-9.6.

[0025] After the polymerization is completed, the polymer needs to be acid-washed and stored in the dark under neutral or weakly acidic conditions.

[0026] The pH range of the acid used for pickling and neutralization is 6.0-6.5, and the amount used is 0.5-2.0 times the mass of the filter residue.

[0027] The present invention provides a bio-based self-crosslinking pigment based on the above method.

[0028] The present invention also provides the application of the bio-based self-crosslinking pigment in the fields of textile dyeing and finishing, fine chemicals, engineering manufacturing, etc.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0030] Using vinyl porphyrin-based bio-based substances as colorants, the production process is generally more environmentally friendly and sustainable than traditional petroleum-based pigments. The raw materials come from plants, microorganisms or other renewable resources, rather than relying on limited petroleum resources, which helps reduce the impact on the environment and reduces dependence on fossil fuels. At the same time, the pigment has self-crosslinking properties and can be directly dispersed and used without the addition of additional adhesives, reducing the use of additives while still having good fastness.
