Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an organic modified quaternary ammonium salt / keratin semi-interpenetrating network antibacterial finishing agent, a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of textile materials. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of society, people are paying more and more attention to the recycling of resources and the sustainable development of society. The resource energy utilization of waste / abandoned wool scraps has significant environmental and economic benefits, and promotes the recycling of waste resources.

[0003] Keratin, as a natural high molecular weight protein, is one of the valuable resources that has not been fully utilized. It has good antibacterial properties, biocompatibility and degradability, and is often used in the field of textile finishing. However, due to the structural complexity of keratin, in practical applications, it is not used directly, but needs to undergo specific modification treatment to improve the stability and versatility of keratin.

[0004] As a new type of green solvent, low eutectic solvents have the advantages of good biocompatibility, low vapor pressure, simple preparation process, adjustable properties and easy recycling. Compared with ionic liquids, which are also environmentally friendly solvents, low eutectic solvents have the advantages of non-toxic synthetic raw materials, few by-products and good biocompatibility, and exhibit excellent physical and chemical properties.

[0005] Compared with the traditional single network structure, the semi-IPN uses keratin as a cross-linked polymer, which provides the skeleton structure and basic physical and chemical properties of the material; while the linear polymer exists in a non-cross-linked form, filling the gaps in the keratin network, which can play a role in strengthening and toughening. Therefore, the keratin semi-IPN structure has sufficient strength while maintaining a certain degree of flexibility and plasticity.

[0006] In summary, the traditional method of extracting wool keratin has the defects of high energy consumption and low yield. As a new type of environmentally friendly low eutectic solvent, it can improve the solubility of wool and achieve efficient output of keratin. Therefore, the study of keratin extracted by low eutectic solvent and organic modified quaternary ammonium salt to form a semi-interpenetrating network structure to prepare antibacterial and mildew-proof finishing agents is not only conducive to exerting the natural antibacterial advantages of keratin, but also can further improve its antibacterial stability and durability through the semi-interpenetrating network structure; the preparation process of the finishing agent meets environmental protection requirements and meets the sustainable development of cashmere products and the pursuit of antibacterial and mildew-proof properties.
