Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of textile dyeing and finishing, and in particular to a method for preparing wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric. Background Art

[0002] Cotton fabric has been widely used in the field of home textiles and clothing because of its good hygroscopicity, air permeability and biodegradability. The textiles made of it are comfortable to wear and highly skin-friendly, and are loved by consumers. At present, with people's pursuit of functional textiles, the preparation of multifunctional cotton fabrics has also received more and more attention. Since cotton fabrics have the disadvantages of being easy to wrinkle, hydrophilic and easy to stain, and having poor UV protection, it is very necessary to develop cotton fabrics with anti-wrinkle, hydrophobic, UV protection and other functions to meet people's needs for convenient and diversified life.

[0003] In recent years, relevant research on the preparation of multifunctional cotton fabrics has made certain progress. The magazine "Carbohydratepolymers" 2013-96-435 reported that 3,3,4,4-benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid (BPTCA) was used as a cross-linking agent to react with the hydroxyl groups on the fiber to make the cotton fabric wrinkle-resistant. At the same time, BPTCA has the function of absorbing ultraviolet rays, providing ultraviolet protection for cotton fabrics. The magazine "Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering" used a simple dip coating method to prepare Ag / PDMS coating on the fabric to produce multifunctional fabrics with hydrophobic, UV and antibacterial properties. The magazine "Journal of Cleaner Production" 2022-372-133712 reported that cotton fabrics were coated with colored nanospheres / PMHS films to give cotton fabrics excellent UV resistance and hydrophobicity. However, the cost of the above-mentioned Ag and nanospheres is too high, which is not conducive to the actual production of cotton fabrics.

[0004] In summary, based on the similarities and differences in the mechanisms of anti-wrinkle, hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet properties of cotton fabrics, researchers tend to prepare cotton fabrics with anti-wrinkle and anti-ultraviolet properties as well as cotton fabrics with hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet properties, while no research on the preparation of cotton fabrics with anti-wrinkle, hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet properties has been reported. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing a wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric, which not only gives the cotton fabric multiple functionalities, but also makes the cotton fabric wrinkle-resistant and hydrophobic while making the fiber softer and having a better hand feel.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-resistant cotton fabric. After being treated with an epoxyamine crosslinking agent and double-terminated thiol polyethylene glycol, the cotton fabric has excellent wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-resistant properties. The wrinkle recovery angle of the cotton fabric is greater than 160°, the water contact angle is greater than 120°, the UV protection factor is higher than 30, the bending stiffness is lower than 6, and the cotton fabric is durable, wrinkle-resistant and soft and comfortable. At the same time, the cotton fabric does not release formaldehyde during preparation and subsequent use.

[0007] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric, the preparation method comprising the following steps: S1. Add hexamethylenediamine solution into a reaction kettle, add epichlorohydrin dropwise while stirring under ice bath condition, keep warm at 60-70°C for 3-5h after the addition, then cool to 20-30°C, slowly add hydrochloric acid solution to adjust the pH value to 2-3 to obtain the product, and purify with anhydrous ethanol to obtain an epoxyamine crosslinking agent; S2, dissolving an epoxyamine crosslinking agent and double-terminated thiol polyethylene glycol in water to prepare a crosslinking agent solution; S3, padding the cotton fabric with a cross-linking agent solution; S4, drying the cotton fabric treated in S3 at 90-100°C for 3-6 minutes; S5, padding the cotton fabric treated in S4 with a catalyst solution; S6, placing the cotton fabric treated in S5 in a high temperature drying machine for baking; S7. Wash the cotton fabric treated by S6 in cold water for 3 to 5 minutes, wash it in hot water at 50 to 60°C for 2 to 5 minutes, soap it in hot water at 100°C for 8 to 12 minutes using 1g / L standard soap flakes, wash it in hot water at 70 to 80°C for 2 to 5 minutes, rinse it in cold water, and dry it to obtain wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic, and UV-resistant cotton fabric.

[0008] Preferably, the molar ratio of epichlorohydrin to hexamethylenediamine in S1 is 3-4:1.05-1.15.

[0009] Preferably, the temperature of the ice bath in S1 is 5-10° C.; and the dripping rate of the epichlorohydrin is 10-30 ml / min.

[0010] Preferably, the mass fraction of the hexamethylenediamine solution in S1 is 2-6%.

[0011] Preferably, the concentration of the hydrochloric acid solution in S1 is 0.1-0.5 mol / L.

[0012] Preferably, the concentration of the epoxyamine crosslinking agent in the crosslinking agent solution in S2 is 1 to 100 g / L; the added amount of the double-terminated mercapto polyethylene glycol is 25 to 50% of the mass of the epoxyamine crosslinking agent.

[0013] Preferably, the rolling rate of the cross-linking agent solution in S3 is in the range of 60 to 120%.

[0014] Preferably, the catalyst in S5 is one or a combination of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium hydroxide, sodium silicate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate; the concentration of the catalyst solution is 10-40 g / L, and the rolling rate of the impregnated catalyst solution ranges from 60 to 120%.

[0015] Preferably, the baking temperature in S6 is in the range of 80 to 200° C., and the baking time is in the range of 10 to 900 s.

[0016] Epoxyamine crosslinking agents contain active epoxy groups and amino groups, which can act on cotton fabrics through ring-opening reactions, crosslink with hydroxyl groups on the surface of cotton fabrics to form a network structure, giving the fabric excellent wrinkle resistance, hydrophobicity and UV resistance. However, after epoxyamine crosslinking agents act on cotton fabrics, the fabric feels poor and the softness is reduced. Therefore, epoxyamine crosslinking agents and double-terminated thiol polyethylene glycol are used together on cotton fabrics. Under the action of a catalyst, the epoxy groups can react with the thiol groups in the double-terminated thiol polyethylene glycol and the hydroxyl groups on the surface of cotton fabrics after ring opening, forming a stable crosslinking structure inside and outside the cotton fibers, thereby improving the wrinkle resistance of the fabric; after the epoxy groups are ring-opened, they form thioether bonds with thiol groups, and the epoxy crosslinking structure and thioether bonds improve the hydrophobic effect of the fabric, while the polyethylene glycol structure makes the fabric feel softer.

[0017] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical effects achieved by the present invention are: 1. The wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric of the present invention has excellent wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof effects, wherein the wrinkle recovery angle of the cotton fabric is greater than 160°, the water contact angle is greater than 120°, and the UV protection factor value is greater than 30.

[0018] 2. The anti-wrinkle, hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet cotton fabric of the present invention has a bending stiffness of less than 6 cm, and is durable, anti-wrinkle and soft and comfortable.

[0019] 3. In the present invention, the wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric does not release formaldehyde during the preparation and subsequent use, making the fabric more environmentally friendly.

[0020] 4. The method for preparing the wrinkle-resistant, hydrophobic and UV-proof cotton fabric of the present invention solves the problems of easy wrinkling, poor hydrophobicity and UV-proof performance of cotton fabric, and improves the added value of cotton fabric products.

[0021] 5. The present invention is low-cost, and can impart multiple properties to cotton fabrics through a one-step cross-linking method. The process is short, and the consumption of water and energy is reduced, thus having good economic and environmental benefits. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0084] Table 3, Comparative Example 3, Examples 1, and various properties of cotton fabrics treated with 9-11 According to the data in Table 3, as the amount of double-terminated mercapto polyethylene glycol added increases, the wrinkle recovery angle, water contact angle, softness and UPF value of the fabric continue to improve, and the performance effects are best when the addition amount is 40%. This is because the addition of double-terminated mercapto polyethylene glycol increases the cross-linking structure, making the fabric more wrinkle-resistant, and the thioether bond has a certain hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet effect, so the hydrophobic and anti-ultraviolet effects of the embodiment are better; the flexural rigidity of comparative example 3 is significantly increased, indicating that the addition of double-terminated mercapto polyethylene glycol makes the fabric softer.
