The nylon and spandex blended fabric was then added and double-impregnated and double-rolled. The fabric was then dried at 100°C for 4 min and baked at 180°C for 20 s to obtain a breathable antibacterial fabric.
[0034] The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that urethane polyamide is used as the finishing agent.
[0035] Add urethane polyamide to distilled water, heat to 80°C, stir for 40 minutes, prepare a finishing solution with a mass fraction of 35 g / L, then add the blended fabric of nylon and spandex, perform double dipping and double rolling, then dry at 90°C for 6 minutes; bake at 170°C for 40 seconds to obtain a breathable antibacterial fabric containing a finishing agent.
[0036] The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that, when preparing polyamide, common succinyl chloride is used instead of hexamethylene di(carbamate propionic acid).
[0037] (1) Add 100 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide, 20 mmol of succinyl chloride, 20 mmol of N-methyl-2,2-diaminodiethylamine, and 44 mmol of triethylamine into a flask, and carry out polymerization reaction at 30°C for 24 hours. The precipitate is filtered, washed with ethanol, and dried to obtain polyamide. The reaction route is as follows: (2) Add 800 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide and 50 g of polyamide into a flask, mix well, add 33 g of benzyl bromide, heat to 80°C, react for 48 hours, remove the solvent by rotary evaporation, wash with ethanol, and dry to obtain an antibacterial finishing agent. The reaction route is as follows: (3) The antibacterial finishing agent was added to distilled water, heated to 80°C, stirred for 40 min, and prepared into a finishing solution with a mass fraction of 35 g / L. The nylon and spandex blended fabric was then added and double-impregnated and double-rolled. The fabric was then dried at 90°C for 6 min and baked at 170°C for 40 s to obtain a breathable antibacterial fabric.
[0038] Comparative Example 3 is a blended fabric of ordinary nylon and spandex, which is not finished with a finishing liquid.
[0039] The water vapor permeability of fabrics was tested according to the method of GB / T 12704.2-2009, and the test temperature was 38°C and the relative humidity was 50%. Each fabric sample was tested 5 times and the average value was taken.
[0040] Table 1 Water vapor permeability of fabrics The water vapor transmission rate of Examples 1-4 reached 24.23-25.74 g·h -1 ·m -2This is because the antibacterial finishing agent prepared by the present invention contains hydrophilic groups such as polyamide, carbamate, quaternary ammonium salt, etc. After finishing, a hydrophilic layer is formed on the surface of the blended fabric of nylon and spandex, which significantly improves the surface hydrophilicity of the blended fabric and is beneficial to improving the moisture permeability and air permeability of the fabric.
[0041] Comparative Example 3 is an ordinary unfinished blended fabric of nylon and spandex, which has the lowest water vapor permeability and poor moisture permeability.
[0042] Comparative Example 1 uses carbamate polyamide as a finishing agent, which does not contain a quaternary ammonium salt hydrophilic group. Comparative Example 2 uses common succinyl chloride to replace hexamethylene di(carbamate propionic acid) when preparing polyamide. The resulting finishing agent does not contain a hydrophilic carbamate group. The water vapor permeability of the blended fabric of the two is lower than that of each embodiment, and the moisture permeability is poor.
[0043] The antibacterial properties of the fabric were tested by the flask oscillation method. The E. coli suspension was added to sterile saline and diluted to 5×10 6 cfu / mL. Take 1 mL and add it to a sterilized flask, then add 1cm×1cm fabric, shake at 37℃ for 24 hours, take 0.2mL of the shaken solution, dilute it 10 times and 100 times respectively, then take 0.1mL and place it in a sterile culture dish, add melted agar medium, mix well and cool to solidify. Incubate at 37℃ for 24 hours, then count the bacteria and calculate the inhibition rate.
[0044] Q = (BC) / B × 100%. C is the average bacterial count of the test sample after shaking. B is the average bacterial count of the blank sample after shaking. The ordinary nylon and spandex blended fabric of Comparative Example 3 is used as the blank sample.
[0045] The fabrics were washed 50 times according to the method of GB / T 8629-2001, and then the antibacterial performance test was carried out.
[0046] Table 2 Antibacterial performance test of fabrics The antibacterial rate of the fabrics of Examples 1-4 against Escherichia coli reached 99.81-99.99%. And the bacterial rate after washing also reached 99.24-99.99%. This is because the main chain of the antibacterial finishing agent contains a large number of quaternary ammonium salt antibacterial groups, which have a strong inhibitory and killing effect on bacteria such as Escherichia coli. In addition, the antibacterial finishing agent contains polyamide and urethane structures, and has high affinity and interfacial forces with the nylon polyamide molecular chain in the blended fabric and the urethane structure of spandex polyurethane, so that the antibacterial finishing agent can be firmly attached to the surface of the blended fabric and will not fall off after multiple washings. It has long-lasting antibacterial ability.
[0047] Comparative Example 1 uses urethane polyamide as a finishing agent, does not contain antibacterial groups, and the blended fabric does not show antibacterial properties.
[0048] In comparative example 2, when preparing polyamide and antibacterial finishing agent, common succinyl chloride was used instead of hexamethylene di(carbamate propionic acid). The obtained antibacterial finishing agent only contained polyamide molecular chains and did not contain carbamate structures. The antibacterial finishing agent had high affinity and interfacial interaction with the nylon polyamide molecular chains in the blended fabric, but had low affinity and interfacial interaction with spandex polyurethane, resulting in the antibacterial finishing agent having lower adhesion performance on the surface of the blended fabric than the embodiments. After multiple washings, the degree of shedding of the antibacterial finishing agent was higher than that of the embodiments, resulting in the antibacterial rate after washing being lower than that of the embodiments.
[0049] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
