Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of tampons, and particularly relates to a hemp antibacterial tampon and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Hemp, a plant fiber with natural antibacterial properties, has been widely used in the textile and medical fields. Hemp fiber contains a large number of natural antimicrobial ingredients that inhibit a variety of bacteria and fungi. Hemp fiber also has excellent chemical adsorption properties. Its porous structure increases its surface area, significantly improving adsorption performance. Therefore, tampons made from hemp fiber should have excellent antibacterial properties and good moisture absorption and perspiration properties.

[0003] Traditional female tampons are primarily made of cotton or other synthetic fibers. While they meet basic moisture absorption and hygiene requirements, they lack antibacterial properties. Especially in humid environments, ordinary tampons can easily become a breeding ground for bacteria, leading to infections and inflammation in users. To address these issues, some antibacterial tampons have emerged on the market. These products reduce bacterial growth by adding chemically synthesized antibacterial agents. However, these chemically synthesized antibacterial agents can cause skin irritation, and long-term use can have adverse effects on human health. Some tampons also use natural plant extracts to provide antibacterial effects, but these products typically apply the extracts directly to the tampon surface, causing the active ingredients to evaporate or become ineffective quickly, failing to provide long-lasting antibacterial effects. Therefore, developing an antibacterial tampon with long-lasting antibacterial properties that also provide pain relief and soothing effects is a pressing technical challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention proposes a hemp antibacterial tampon and a preparation method thereof. The present invention adopts a mixture of hemp fiber and bamboo fiber. The combination of the two can enhance the overall antibacterial and hygroscopic properties of the tampon. After biological enzyme treatment, the softness and comfort of hemp fiber and bamboo fiber are improved, and hygroscopicity and air permeability are improved. Hemp fiber and bamboo fiber have good compatibility with plant extracts, which helps to maintain the activity of plant extracts and increase the antibacterial and soothing properties of the tampon. The plant composite essence prepared by the present invention and the plant essence mixed with the composite nanofiber membrane can be slowly released to ensure that the tampon continues to play an antibacterial and soothing effect during use. The added angelica extract has the effects of nourishing blood and activating blood circulation, regulating menstruation and relieving pain, which helps to relieve menstrual discomfort. Blumea balsamifera extract has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Motherwort extract has the effects of promoting blood circulation and regulating menstruation, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling. The hemp antibacterial tampon prepared by the present invention has long-lasting antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and long-lasting soothing effects, which can effectively reduce the risk of infection and inflammation, and bring lasting and comfortable safety protection.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0028] The hemp antibacterial tampons prepared by the present invention use hemp fibers and bamboo fibers, and the combination of the two can enhance the overall antibacterial and hygroscopic properties of the tampons. After being treated with biological enzymes, the softness and comfort of the hemp fibers and bamboo fibers are improved, the specific surface area of the hemp fibers is increased, and the hygroscopicity and air permeability are improved. The prepared plant composite essence, the nanofiber membrane, is combined with the hemp fibers and bamboo fibers to improve the compatibility between the plant extracts and the fibers, and avoid the rapid loss of active ingredients during the preparation and use process. The nanofiber membrane is used to load the plant extracts and essential oils. The nanofiber membrane serves as a carrier, which helps to stabilize the active ingredients in the plant extracts and essential oils and prolong the lasting effect in the tampons. In addition, the nanofiber membrane can control the release rate of the active ingredients, achieve slow release, and prolong the antibacterial effect. The composite nanofiber membrane The high specific surface area and hygroscopicity enhance the tampon's absorbency, maintaining lasting dryness during use. Hemp and bamboo fibers inherently possess excellent breathability and hygroscopicity. Combined with the composite nanofiber membrane, these antibacterial tampons further enhance their comfort and breathability. Honeysuckle extract and tea tree oil, both known for their strong antibacterial properties, slowly release their active ingredients when combined with the composite nanofiber membrane, enhancing and prolonging the tampon's antibacterial properties. Licorice and valerian extracts extend the duration of their anti-inflammatory and calming effects. Combined with the cooling effect of peppermint oil, they provide a more comprehensive soothing effect, helping to alleviate menstrual anxiety and tension. The aroma of peppermint and tea tree oil, combined with the composite nanofiber membrane, is released over a long period of time, providing a refreshing user experience. Hemp and bamboo fibers inherently possess excellent moisture-wicking properties. Bio-enzyme treatment and the addition of a plant extract further enhance their moisture-wicking properties by reducing bacterial growth. The hemp antibacterial tampon prepared by the present invention is added with angelica extract, Blumea Balsamifera extract and Leonurus japonicus extract. The angelica extract has the effects of nourishing blood and activating blood circulation, regulating menstruation and relieving pain. It can be directly applied to the tampon to act on the skin quickly, which helps to relieve menstrual discomfort. Blumea Balsamifera extract has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Direct application can provide an immediate soothing effect. Leonurus japonicus extract has the effects of activating blood circulation and regulating menstruation, promoting diuresis and reducing swelling, which is very beneficial for menstrual care. The added moisturizing agent not only acts as a moisturizing agent alone, but also improves the antibacterial and antioxidant properties of the tampon, has a certain moisturizing ability, helps to maintain the softness of the tampon, and helps other antibacterial ingredients to be better adsorbed on the fiber surface, thereby improving the antibacterial effect. Hemp fiber and bamboo fiber are both natural fibers, green and environmentally friendly, and can be biodegraded. Combined with plant composite essence, the hemp antibacterial tampon is made healthier and more environmentally friendly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

After oscillation for 18 h, the results were as follows: Y=(W t -Q t ) / Wt×100%, to calculate the antibacterial rate, where Y is the antibacterial rate of the sample, W t Q is the average of the viable bacterial concentrations of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans in the three control samples in 18 h oscillation contact flasks. t The average value of the live bacteria concentration in the flask after 18 hours of oscillation contact of the hemp antibacterial tampon samples prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 is shown in Table 1.

[0082] Experimental Example 2: Hygroscopicity test. The hygroscopicity test was carried out according to GB / T 21655.1-2008. The antibacterial cotton strips prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 were used as test samples. Each sample was placed flat and wrinkle-free. The original mass of each sample was weighed to an accuracy of 0.001 g. The sample was placed in a container filled with grade 3 water. After absorbing water, the sample naturally sank. If the sample did not sink, the sample was pressed into the water and then lifted up. This was repeated twice. The sample was completely immersed in water for 5 minutes and then taken out. The sample was naturally flattened and hung vertically. The water in the sample naturally dripped. When the sample stopped dripping (when the time interval between two drops of water was greater than 30 s, it was considered that the sample no longer dripped), the sample was immediately taken out with tweezers and weighed to an accuracy of 0.001. g, according to A=(m-m0)\m0×100, where A is the water absorption rate (%), m0 is the original mass of the sample, in grams (g), and m is the mass of the sample after being soaked and dripping with water, in grams (g). The calculated water absorption rate is shown in Table 1.

[0084]

[0085] The results in Table 1 show that the inhibition rates of Examples 1-3 against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans are all above 90%, indicating that the hemp antibacterial tampons prepared by the present invention have good antibacterial effects and can effectively avoid infection and inflammation. It can be clearly seen from Table 1 that the water absorption rates and antibacterial rates of Examples 1-3 are higher than those of Comparative Examples 1-3, among which the water absorption rate of Example 2 reaches 262%, which has good moisture absorption performance and can meet the moisture absorption requirements of tampons.

[0086] Experimental Example 3: A skin irritation test was conducted on rabbits. Rabbits with healthy and undamaged skin were selected as test subjects. The hemp antibacterial cotton strips prepared in Example 1-33 and Comparative Example 1-3 were used as samples. The hair on both sides of the rabbit's spine on the back was removed 12 hours before the test (an area of 10×15 cm) and used as the test and observation site. The hemp antibacterial cotton strip samples were directly contacted with the skin on both sides of the rabbit's spine. After 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours of contact, the skin was observed for erythema and water-induced irritation reactions, and scores were given according to the skin reactions. The irritation scores are shown in Table 2.
