Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of treating fibers, yarns, threads, fabrics, feathers or fiber products made of these materials that are not included in other categories within category D06, and in particular relates to a pretreatment method for flax roving combining biological enzymes with chemical degumming. Background Art

[0002] Flax fiber is the earliest natural fiber used by humans. It is a bundled plant fiber among natural fibers. It has a natural spindle-shaped structure and unique pectin-like bevel holes, which produce excellent moisture absorption, breathability, antiseptic, antibacterial and low static electricity properties. Flax roving is usually used in the fields of hand-woven textiles, high-end clothing and home accessories. Due to its natural texture, good breathability, good moisture absorption and low static electricity, it is very suitable for use in summer or in environments with high humidity. In the field of handicrafts, flax roving is more often used for weaving, crocheting or weaving tapestries. Due to its rough textile texture and pure natural color, it can create a traditional and simple artistic effect.

[0003] Flax roving is usually pre-treated by multiple steps including raw material preparation, fiber soaking, fiber scouring, fiber bleaching, fiber drying, fiber carding, fiber combing and fiber stretching. The dried flax fiber is put into a pot and scour with high temperature water, and appropriate amount of bleach and softener are added to achieve the purpose of cleaning, bleaching and softening.

[0004] Combined with the existing technology, it is found that due to the presence of a large amount of pectin and impurities inside the flax fiber, the existing flax roving processing technology only removes the pectin and impurities inside the flax fiber by high-temperature boiling, and adds bleaching agent to the clean water to bleach the flax fiber. The flax roving processed by this process has an internal impurity content of 1.4-2%, resulting in the existing flax roving being unable to quickly remove the internal pectin and impurities during the pretreatment process, and reduce the internal impurity content of the flax roving. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a pretreatment method of flax roving combining biological enzyme and chemical degumming to solve the problems described in the above background technology.

[0006] The purpose and efficacy of the pretreatment method of flax roving combined with biological enzyme and chemical degumming of the present invention are achieved by the following specific technical means:

[0007] S1 Raw material processing: Select high-quality flax fiber as raw material, wash and screen the flax fiber, remove impurities and bad fibers inside the flax fiber, and select the part with better cellulose quality;

[0008] S2 soaking: adding hydrochloric acid and chlorine to clean water, the ratio of clean water, hydrochloric acid and chlorine is 36.5:1:1, and mixing clean water, hydrochloric acid and chlorine, soaking the stripped flax fiber in the mixed solution, the temperature of the mixed solution is 28-32°C, the water level of the mixed solution is above the flax fiber, and the soaking time is 87-120h, so as to soften it and remove impurities therein;

[0009] S3 Chemical degumming: Place the soaked flax fibers in an electric cooker, add water, sulfuric acid solution for pre-acidification, sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate for alkaline cooking in a ratio of 10:1:1.5:2, and set the temperature of the electric cooker at 60-80°C for 2-2.5 hours;

[0010] S4 biological enzyme: turn off the electric cooker, and when the internal temperature of the flax fiber after soaking is 30-35℃, pour the biological enzyme into the electric cooker, and stir the biological enzyme and flax fiber in the electric cooker for 10-20 minutes;

[0011] S5 Drying: The mixed flax fibers are placed in a dryer at a temperature of 90-105°C for 80-100 minutes.

[0012] S5 Combing and spinning: Place the dried flax fibers on the needle plate of the combing table and comb the flax fibers. Use a spinning machine to straighten the combed flax fibers and twist them into flax roving with a certain tension.

[0013] Preferably, in step S2, clean water, hydrochloric acid and chlorine are poured into the soaking tank, and the flax fibers are spread flat in the soaking tank.

[0014] Preferably, the soaked flax fibers are placed in front of an electric cooker, and the mixed solution on the surface of the flax fibers is removed by artificial drainage.

[0015] Preferably, during the cooking process of the flax fibers in the electric cooker, the flax fibers need to be manually turned over, and the turning frequency is 5 times / 30 minutes.

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. By soaking the flax fiber in a mixed solution of hydrochloric acid and chlorine, the flax fiber can be soaked and bleached for a long time by hydrochloric acid and chlorine, so that the hydrochloric acid and chlorine react with the flax fiber for a long time. After soaking, the flax fiber does not need to be dried, and then it is treated by a method combining chemical degumming and biological enzymes, which can quickly remove pectin and impurities in the flax fiber while maintaining good physical properties of the flax fiber, and can avoid the situation that the existing flax fiber needs to be boiled for a long time during the treatment process. The flax fiber is placed in a dryer for drying, so as to avoid the situation that the flax fiber is easily affected by weather and humidity during the drying process;

[0018] 2. Add hydrochloric acid and chlorine to clean water in a ratio of 36.5:1:1, mix the clean water, hydrochloric acid and chlorine, and immerse the stripped flax fiber in the mixed solution. The calculation of the ratio is based on the fact that chlorine can dissolve in water and partially react with water to generate hydrochloric acid and hypochlorous acid, wherein the chemical equation for the reaction of chlorine with water is Cl2+H2O→HCl+HClO. The above process can remove pigments and impurities in the flax fiber, thereby improving the purity of the flax fiber;

[0019] 3. Turn off the electric cooker. When the internal temperature of the flax fiber after soaking is 30-35℃, pour the biological enzyme into the electric cooker and stir the biological enzyme and flax fiber in the electric cooker for 10-20 minutes. The combination of biological enzyme and chemical degumming can selectively remove pectin, hemicellulose and lignin in the flax fiber, with little damage to the flax fiber, and can control the weight loss rate of flax crude fiber and reduce fiber strength loss.

[0020] 4. After soaking, the flax fibers are placed in front of the electric cooker, and the mixed solution on the surface of the flax fibers is removed by manual drainage. During the cooking process of the flax fibers in the electric cooker, the flax fibers need to be manually turned over, and the turning frequency is 5 times / 30 minutes. By adding clean water, sulfuric acid solution for pre-acidification, sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate for alkaline cooking in the electric cooker, the pectin and impurities inside the flax fibers can be quickly removed, thereby reducing the impurity content inside the flax fibers;

[0021] 5. By evaluating the flax rovings processed with different values, it can be learned that the overall score of the flax roving processed in Example 7 can reach 92 points, the flax roving prepared is evenly arranged in strips, soft to the touch, and the roving is evenly dry, and the internal impurity content of the flax roving is 0.5%.
