Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fiber preparation technology, specifically relating to a modified polylactic acid fiber, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most synthetic fibers used on a large scale are derived from petrochemical resources, such as polyolefins and polyesters. However, petroleum-based resins are themselves limited resources; moreover, their non-degradability easily causes serious "white pollution" to the environment, drastically increasing CO2 emissions and contributing to global warming. Therefore, developing biodegradable polymer fibers that can be applied in the fiber industry is particularly necessary.

[0003] Among them, polylactic acid (PLA) is a typical biodegradable plastic. PLA has good biocompatibility and biodegradability. During composting, it is decomposed by microorganisms and can eventually generate carbon dioxide and water. It is one of the earliest biodegradable plastics certified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). With the maturity of PLA's large-scale production technology and the reduction of its production cost, PLA fibers with various excellent properties have been prepared in recent years. Their application in the fields of medicine and textiles has attracted widespread attention. PLA fibers are made from raw materials such as corn, wheat, and starch, which are fermented to produce lactic acid and then polymerized and melt-spun. However, PLA fibers have the problem of low strength, especially below the glass transition temperature, they are prone to physical aging, which leads to a further decrease in the strength of PLA (Fiber and polymers, 2021, 22(9): 2602-2611; ACS Appl.Polm.materials, 2021, 3, 1406-1414).

[0004] Numerous public reports describe the preparation of PLA fibers. Patent CN1 17626481A discloses a method for producing high-strength-retention polylactic acid (PLA) monofilaments. This method utilizes a tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkoxy vinyl ether copolymer layer to completely coat the outside of the PLA monofilament, isolating it from direct contact with air and slowing its decomposition, thereby improving the strength retention of the PLA fiber. However, this method increases the processing difficulty of PLA fibers and requires specialized equipment, hindering large-scale application. Patent CN116463785A discloses a method for preparing aging-resistant fibers. Using specifically cross-linked silicone rubber as the fiber reinforcement material and through the synergistic effect of polyvinyl alcohol, PLA fibers with a strength of 3.5-7.0 cN / dtex and a strength retention rate of 91.4-95.7% can be prepared. Due to the water-absorbing properties of polyvinyl alcohol, water molecules can enter the polylactic acid matrix during storage in certain environments, such as high humidity environments, which can cause polylactic acid to undergo hydrolysis and potentially reduce the strength of polylactic acid fibers.

[0005] Although the above-mentioned known technologies can all produce PLA fibers, they still have the following limitations: (1) Special equipment and processes are required to produce high strength retention polylactic acid fibers, which cannot be promoted on a large scale; (2) Due to their water absorption characteristics, the strength retention rate of some high strength retention polylactic acid fiber reinforced materials cannot be guaranteed under high temperature and high humidity conditions; (3) Existing strength retention rate tests only changes in a short period of time, and the strength retention rate over a long period of time cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The main objective of this invention is to provide a modified polylactic acid fiber, its preparation method, and its application, so as to overcome the problems of severe strength attenuation and poor strength retention in the prior art.

[0007] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted by this invention includes:

[0008] This invention provides a modified polylactic acid fiber. The raw materials for preparing the modified polylactic acid fiber include the following components by weight: 70-98 parts of polylactic acid, 1-15 parts of modified tackifying resin, and 1-15 parts of tackifying resin.

[0009] The modified tackifying resin is prepared by grafting a tackifying resin with methacrylic acid to form a grafted tackifying resin, and then reacting it with poly(methyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) and lactic acid oligomers.

[0010] This invention also provides a method for preparing the aforementioned modified polylactic acid fiber, comprising:

[0011] Modified polylactic acid fibers are prepared by blending polylactic acid, modified tackifying resin and tackifying resin, granulating, melt spinning and hot stretching.

[0012] The present invention also provides the application of the aforementioned modified polylactic acid fiber in the preparation of textile materials.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0014] (1) The present invention improves the stretchability of polylactic acid fiber by combining polylactic acid, modified tackifying resin and tackifying resin with specific component contents. While ensuring strength, it can also obtain modified polylactic acid fiber with high strength retention rate after 180 days of physical aging.

[0015] (2) The formulation system designed in this invention is relatively simple, but it can still achieve a high strength retention rate of polylactic acid fiber;

[0016] (3) In this invention, the low molecular weight tackifying resin will migrate to the surface of polylactic acid during the processing to form an adhesive layer, which can make the fibers stick together, improve the energy release capacity during the tensile test, and indirectly improve the strength retention rate of polylactic acid fibers.

[0017] (4) The addition of modified tackifying resin in this invention significantly enhances the compatibility between polylactic acid and tackifying resin (the surface of tackifying resin is coated with modified tackifying resin, which greatly reduces the size of the dispersed phase and makes the network structure more compact), forming a very strong bonding force; even under the process of hot stretching and tensile testing, there will be no desorption, breakage or other phenomena.

[0018] (5) The modified tackifying resin and the tackifying resin in the polylactic acid fiber of the present invention work together to form a viscoelastic three-dimensional network structure, which improves the stability of the microstructure in the fiber and significantly improves the strength retention rate of polylactic acid fiber.

[0019] (6) The present invention selects polylactic acid with a higher molecular weight, which can improve the melt strength of the blend system and improve the mechanical properties of polylactic acid fiber; the selected polylactic acid has a higher molar content of L optical isomer, which can improve the crystallization ability of the blend system, thereby improving the crystallinity and mechanical properties of modified polylactic acid fiber; the selected modified tackifying resin with a medium weight average molecular weight significantly improves the compatibility between the tackifying resin and polylactic acid, which can improve the adhesion and stretchability of the blend system, and give the modified polylactic acid fiber high mutual adhesion; so that the modified polylactic acid fiber maintains high strength after physical aging and has the characteristics of physical aging resistance, breaking through the conventional polylactic acid fiber is prone to physical aging and strength reduction, thus fully meeting the use requirements and greatly expanding its application field.

However, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0080] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental materials used in the examples below can be purchased from conventional biochemical reagent companies.

[0081] Example 1

[0083] (1) 85 parts by weight of C5 tackifying resin, 15 parts by weight of methacrylic acid (MA) and 0.8 parts by weight of dicumyl peroxide were melt-blended to form a tackifying resin with carboxylic acid groups. The reaction temperature was 120°C and the reaction time was 7 min to obtain a grafted tackifying resin with a grafting ratio of 34%.

[0084] (2) 30 parts by weight of methyl methacrylate (MMA), 30 parts by weight of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA), 40 parts by weight of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and 0.2 parts by weight of azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) were mixed as catalysts and polymerized to form poly(methyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) P(MMA-co-GMA). The reaction temperature was 70°C, the reaction pressure was 2 kPa, and the reaction time was 8 hours.

[0085] (3) 20 parts by weight of the grafted tackifying resin were further blended with 20 parts by weight of lactic acid oligomer and 60 parts by weight of poly(methyl methacrylate-co-glycidyl methacrylate) to obtain a modified tackifying resin. The reaction temperature was 160℃, the reaction pressure was 2kPa, and the reaction time was 2h. The modified tackifying resin was obtained, and its NMR spectrum is shown below. Figure 1 This indicates that the preparation was successful;

[0086] (4) Take polylactic acid (PLA) with a weight average molecular weight of 200,000, and PLA with a molar content of 98% of L optical isomer; C5 tackifying resin with a weight average molecular weight of 1200; and modified tackifying resin with a weight average molecular weight of 80,000.

[0087] (5) The dried blend was extruded and spun using a conventional melt spinning machine with circular spinneret holes. The spinning temperature was 230℃ and the spinning speed was 2000 m / min. The blended long fibers were then wound up. Finally, the blended long fibers were stretched and heat-set at a temperature of 95℃ and a stretch ratio of 3.6 times to obtain modified polylactic acid fibers. The fibers were then placed in a constant temperature and humidity chamber at 40℃ and 50% RH for 180 days for stabilization.

Figure 3The image shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the insoluble residue obtained after Soxhlet extraction of modified polylactic acid (PLA) fibers using chloroform solvent. PLA is soluble in chloroform, while the modified tackifying resin is insoluble. Therefore, the microfiber structure within the SEM image is likely undissolved modified tackifying resin.

The weight parts of each component in a blend of 100 parts by weight are: 82 parts of polylactic acid, 10 parts of tackifying resin, and 8 parts of modified tackifying resin. The blend obtained by melt extrusion of the composition is dried by hot air at a temperature of 94±2℃ for 7 hours and a moisture content of 48ppm.

[0094] (5) The dried blend was extruded and spun using a conventional melt spinning machine with circular spinneret holes. The spinning temperature was 240℃, and the spinning speed was 2000 m / min. The blended long fibers were then wound up. Finally, the blended long fibers were stretched and heat-set at a temperature of 95℃ and a stretch ratio of 3.9 times to obtain modified polylactic acid fibers.
