Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of synthetic fiber technology and relates to a colored high-strength PET fiber and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] High-strength fibers are lightweight yet possess superior tensile strength and toughness, effectively enhancing the strength of composite materials and making them more reliable under high pressure and impact. Furthermore, the wear resistance of high-strength fibers extends product lifespan and reduces maintenance costs, leading to their widespread application in various fields such as aerospace, automotive, sports equipment, protective gear, and construction. Currently, there are four commonly used methods for preparing high-strength fibers: (1) gel spinning and high-stretch fiber production process, which involves wet spinning a high-molecular-weight polyethylene solution into gel-like fibers and then drawing the fibers out at a high draw ratio; (2) liquid crystal spinning, which utilizes a liquid crystal solution of a rigid polymer in a semi-dry, semi-wet state to produce highly oriented crystals of the rigid polymer through a spinning head; (3) by altering the molecular chain structure of para-aromatic polyamide fibers, dissolving them in an organic solvent, and then spinning them in a semi-dry, semi-wet state; and (4) by melt spinning a semi-rigid polymer to achieve ultra-high strength fibers, a process specifically designed for processing aromatic polyesters.

[0003] Colored fibers have wide applications in anti-counterfeiting technology, safety warnings, and enhancing product aesthetics. Currently, there are two main methods for coloring colored fibers: (1) conventional fiber coloring, which is a dyeing method for PET fibers with high hydrophobicity and crystallinity. The key is to accelerate the diffusion rate of dye in the fiber; (2) pre-spinning solution coloring, which is a method of directly producing colored fibers by adding appropriate pigments or dyes during the production of chemical fibers. It is also known as pre-spinning coloring. Unlike conventional dyeing, this pre-spinning coloring method makes the colorant uniformly dispersed in the polymer. After spinning, the colorant is fixed in the fiber. The coloring process is a physical change.

[0004] PET fiber has advantages such as good fiber-forming properties, high strength, wear resistance, and aging resistance, and has been widely used in the manufacture of various textiles. PET fiber that combines colored and high strength has even more important application value.

[0005] Currently, research on PET fibers that simultaneously achieve both color and high strength is limited. The main approach involves adding color masterbatches to high-strength fibers or performing color spraying later to achieve color. However, this method has drawbacks: the added masterbatches can affect fiber strength, and the unique chemical structure of high-strength fibers can lead to poor compatibility with commonly used dyes, thus affecting colorfastness. For example, patent application CN109322006A discloses a colored high-strength polyethylene fiber, whose preparation method includes the following steps: preparation of spinning solution; preparation of high-strength polyethylene fiber; high-strength polyethylene fiber spraying modification; and ultraviolet light treatment. This preparation method achieves both color and high strength by performing color spraying after producing high-strength fibers. The high-strength and colored effects are achieved separately, leading to compatibility issues between the fiber and dyes, which affect colorfastness.

[0006] Therefore, given that existing PET fibers cannot simultaneously achieve both high color fastness and high strength, it is necessary to develop a PET fiber and its preparation method that can simultaneously achieve both high color fastness and high strength, in order to promote the further development of the PET industry. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art and to provide a colored high-strength PET fiber and its preparation method.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0009] A method for preparing colored high-strength PET fiber involves melt spinning a PET melt containing a colored high-strength modifier to obtain colored high-strength PET fiber. The colored high-strength modifier has a linear molecular chain with PDI (3,4,9,10-perylene diimide, CAS No. 81-33-4) or NDI (1,4,5,8-naphthalene diimide, CAS No. 5690-24-4) in the middle and aromatic rings at both ends. The melt spinning process includes a drawing step.

[0010] The principle of this invention is as follows: During the drawing process, due to the conjugated rigid structure of the perylene ring or naphthalene ring in the PDI or NDI structure of the colored high-strength modifier, and the conjugated structure of the aromatic rings (e.g., benzene ring, naphthalene ring, anthracene ring) attached to both ends of the PDI or NDI structure, under the action of the stress field, PDI and NDI are aligned along the orientation direction of the PET molecular chain. The large number of aromatic rings at both ends of the PDI or NDI structure can form stable π-π interactions with the benzene rings on the PET fiber, which strengthens the interaction between molecular chains in the microfibril structure of the fiber. At the same time, the aromatic rings participate in the crystallization of the microfibril crystallization region. Therefore, the colored high-strength modifier enhances the interaction between the interfaces in the fiber microfibril structure, which is beneficial to improving the fiber strength and the bonding strength between the fiber and the colored high-strength modifier. In addition, PDI and NDI themselves have bright colors and can be used as a source of color for colored fibers.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution:

[0012] The above-described method for preparing colored high-strength PET fibers uses a colored high-strength modifier as follows: Where n≥2.

[0013] In the above-described method for preparing colored high-strength PET fibers, the content of the colored high-strength modifier in the PET melt is 5-7 wt%.

[0014] The method for preparing colored high-strength PET fiber as described above involves a drafting ratio of 5-6 times, using four pairs of drafting rollers. The temperature of the first pair of drafting rollers is 140-150℃, and the spinning speed is 400-500 m / min. The temperature of the second pair of drafting rollers is 239-250℃, and the spinning speed is 1255-1600 m / min. The temperature of the third pair of drafting rollers is 246-250℃, and the spinning speed is 2000-2500 m / min. The temperature of the fourth pair of drafting rollers is 245-250℃, and the spinning speed is 2400-2500 m / min.

[0015] The preparation method of colored high-strength PET fiber as described above involves the following steps: first, the colored high-strength modifier is melt-blended with PET chips to obtain a masterbatch with a colored high-strength modifier concentration of 40-45 wt%; then, the masterbatch is melt-blended with PET chips.

[0016] The method for preparing colored high-strength PET fiber as described above involves melt blending masterbatch and PET chips using a twin-screw extruder. The temperatures of each zone of the twin-screw extruder are as follows: Zone 1: 271-277℃; Zone 2: 289-293℃; Zone 3: 286-293℃; Zone 4: 289-295℃; Zone 5: 292-295℃.

[0017] The process flow of melt spinning for preparing colored high-strength PET fiber as described above is: spinning → cooling → drawing → setting → winding.

[0018] The method for preparing colored high-strength PET fiber as described above involves spinning at a temperature of 303-305℃; cooling air temperature of 22-25℃, relative humidity of the air at 73-75%, and air velocity of 0.7-0.8m / s; setting temperature of 88-109℃; and winding speed of 4185-4200m / min.

[0019] The present invention also provides a colored high-strength PET fiber, which is prepared by the method for preparing a colored high-strength PET fiber as described in any of the preceding claims.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution:

[0021] The colored high-strength PET fiber described above has a linear density deviation rate of 1-1.6%, a linear density variation coefficient of 0.5-2%, a linear density of 8500-9000 dtex, a breaking elongation of 14.9-15.2%, a breaking elongation variation coefficient of 4.5-5%, a breaking strength variation coefficient of 2.1-2.5%, a light fastness grade of 8, a soap fastness grade of 5, a water fastness grade of 5, a rubbing fastness grade of 5, and a perspiration fastness grade of 5.

[0022] Beneficial effects:

[0023] (1) The preparation method of the present invention uses PDI or NDI with aromatic rings (e.g., benzene ring, naphthalene ring, anthracene ring) attached to both ends as a colored high-strength modifier, which strengthens the interaction between molecular chains in the microfiber structure of the fiber. At the same time, these aromatic rings participate in the crystallization of the microfiber crystallization region, which enhances the interaction between the interfaces in the microfiber structure of the fiber. This is beneficial to improve the fiber strength and the bonding strength between the fiber and the colored high-strength modifier. Moreover, the colored high-strength modifier itself has a bright color, which serves as the color source for the colored fiber, thus achieving both high fiber strength and high color fastness.

[0024] (2) The preparation method of the present invention adds a single colored high-strength modifier, the reaction system is uniformly dispersed, avoids complex additives and cumbersome process flow, and improves preparation efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0140] (3) Preparation of masterbatch;

[0141] A colored high-strength modifier was melt-blended with PET chips to obtain a masterbatch with a concentration of 40 wt%.

[0142] (4) Melt spinning;

[0143] (4.1) Spinning: First, the masterbatch and PET chips are melt-blended using a twin-screw extruder to obtain PET melt. The content of colored high-strength modifier in the PET melt is 5wt%. The temperatures of each zone of the twin-screw extruder are: Zone 1 temperature 271℃, Zone 2 temperature 292℃, Zone 3 temperature 292℃, Zone 4 temperature 294℃, Zone 5 temperature 292℃. Then, electrospinning is performed at a temperature of 304℃.

[0144] (4.2) Cooling: The air temperature during cooling is 25℃, the relative humidity of the air is 74%, and the wind speed is 0.7m / s;

[0145] (4.3) Drafting: The drafting ratio is 6 times, and four pairs of drafting rollers are used; the temperature of the first pair of drafting rollers is 150℃ and the spinning speed is 400m / min; the temperature of the second pair of drafting rollers is 239℃ and the spinning speed is 1600m / min; the temperature of the third pair of drafting rollers is 250℃ and the spinning speed is 2000m / min; the temperature of the fourth pair of drafting rollers is 248℃ and the spinning speed is 2400m / min.

[0146] (4.4) Shaping: The shaping temperature is 88℃;

[0147] (4.5) Winding: The winding speed is 4189 m / min, which yields colored high-strength PET fibers.

[0148] The final colored high-strength PET fiber has a linear density deviation rate of 1.6%, a linear density variation coefficient of 1.3%, a linear density of 8500 dtex, a breaking elongation of 15.1%, a breaking elongation variation coefficient of 5%, a breaking strength variation coefficient of 2.5%, a light fastness grade of 8, a soap fastness grade of 5, a water fastness grade of 5, a rubbing fastness grade of 5, and a perspiration fastness grade of 5.

[0149] Comparative Example 4

[0150] A method for preparing PET fiber is basically the same as in Example 4, except that NTCDA and long-chain aniline are used instead of the colored high-strength modifier, and the amount of NTCDA and long-chain aniline used is the same as in Example 4.

[0151] The final PET fiber had a linear density deviation rate of 4.1%, a linear density variation coefficient of 8%, a breaking elongation of 10%, a breaking elongation variation coefficient of 8.6%, a breaking strength variation coefficient of 7%, a light fastness grade of 3, a soap fastness grade of 1, a water fastness grade of 2, a rubbing fastness grade of 1, and a perspiration fastness grade of 2.

[0152] In summary, comparing Examples 1-4 with Comparative Examples 1-4, the linear density deviation rate, linear density coefficient of variation, elongation at break coefficient of variation, and tensile strength coefficient of variation of the PET fibers finally obtained in Examples 1-4 were significantly lower than those of the PET fibers finally obtained in Comparative Examples 1-4. Furthermore, the light fastness, soaping fastness, water fastness, rubbing fastness, and perspiration fastness of the PET fibers finally obtained in Examples 1-4 were significantly higher than those of the PET fibers finally obtained in Comparative Examples 1-4. This is because Examples 1-4... During the fiber drawing process, the perylene or naphthalene rings of the PDI or NDI structure in the aforementioned colored high-strength modifiers have a conjugated rigid structure, and the aromatic rings (e.g., benzene, naphthalene, anthracene) attached to both ends of the PDI or NDI also have a conjugated structure. Under the action of a stress field, the PDI aligns along the orientation direction of the PET molecular chain. These aromatic rings can form stable π-π interactions with the benzene rings on the PET fiber, strengthening the intermolecular chain interactions in the fiber microfiber structure and increasing the fiber strength; at the same time, these aromatic rings participate in the crystallization of the microfiber crystalline region (e.g., Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the above-mentioned colored high-strength modifier enhances the interaction between interfaces in the fiber microfiber structure, which is beneficial to improving fiber strength. The strong interaction between dye and fiber also gives it high color fastness.
