At the same time, in cooperation with the embedded cellulose gel, it can absorb exudate to form a hydrogel phase, effectively locking the liquid to prevent backflow, further enhancing the water absorption effect of the nursing pad. Moreover, the mixed fluff pulp fiber can improve the diffusion effect of the liquid phase, prevent local swelling saturation, and achieve a dynamic balance of liquid absorption, diffusion, and storage, enabling it to have excellent water absorption rate and water absorption effect, thus achieving better use comfort.
[0030] In the preparation process of the present invention, through precise control of the ultrasonic treatment time during the compounding of the core layer material, the full stretching of molecular chains and the stability of the dynamic crosslinking network can be achieved, making the molecular chains more dispersed and uniform, which helps to increase the specific surface area and porosity of the material, thereby improving the water absorption rate.

[0087] Performance detection: The medical nursing pads prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-9 were tested for absorption rate, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0088] Absorption rate test: Referring to ISO 15226-1 "Test Method for Absorbency of Disposable Absorbent Products", a measuring cylinder with a capacity of 500 mL was placed in the middle of the nursing pad, and 300 mL of artificial urine was poured in, and the time required for the liquid to be completely absorbed by the nursing pad was recorded.
[0089] Table 1: Performance test results
[0090]
[0091] It can be seen from Table 1 that:
[0092] It can be seen from the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 that by using a calcium salt to crosslink a bio-based polymer material to construct a high-strength porous skeleton and adopting a surfactant, the flexible treatment of the material is realized, so that while the material has certain water absorption performance, the flexibility and elasticity of the material are improved, the conformability and shape retention performance are increased. At the same time, in cooperation with the embedded cellulose gel, it can absorb exudate to form a hydrogel phase, effectively lock the liquid to prevent back-leakage, further enhance the water absorption effect of the nursing pad, and the mixed fluff pulp fibers can improve the diffusion effect of the liquid phase, prevent local swelling saturation, and achieve a dynamic balance of liquid absorption, diffusion and storage, so that it has excellent water absorption rate and water absorption effect, thus achieving better use comfort. However, for traditional nursing pads, the SAP particles rely on physical adsorption to lock the liquid. After absorbing the liquid, the particles are prone to agglomerate to form a gel barrier, which hinders the liquid diffusion, thereby reducing the water absorption rate and effect.
[0093] It can be seen from the comparison between Example 1 and Example 2 that the bamboo charcoal cellulose gel forms a dynamic cross-linked network through the Schiff base reaction of aldehyde group-modified cellulose and carboxymethyl chitosan. The hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds in this network can simultaneously bind water molecules to form a stable hydrogel phase, lock the liquid and prevent back-leakage; and the fluff pulp fibers used and the skeleton constructed by the three-dimensional porous material form a macro-micro hierarchical structure, and the liquid diffusion is accelerated through the capillary gradient effect; it can be seen from the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 that when the bamboo charcoal cellulose gel is removed, the molecular-level water locking mechanism of the bamboo charcoal cellulose gel is lost, resulting in a decrease in the liquid retention ability and a reduction in the liquid absorption efficiency; it can be seen from the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 that after removing the fluff pulp fibers, there are only macro-pores in the pore scale, and the lateral liquid diffusion rate decreases, resulting in a decrease in the liquid diffusion effect, thereby reducing the liquid absorption rate and effect.
[0094] It can be seen from the comparison between Example 1, Example 3 and Example 4 and Comparative Examples 4-7 that appropriate contents of flexible calcium alginate porous material, bamboo charcoal cellulose gel and fluff pulp fibers can maintain excellent liquid absorption rate and effect; among them, the bamboo charcoal cellulose gel forms a dynamic cross-linked network through aldehyde groups and carboxymethyl chitosan. When the ratio is unbalanced, excessive gel will overfill the pores of the calcium alginate porous skeleton, resulting in a decrease in pore connectivity, a weakening of capillary force, a limitation of the swelling freedom of the material, and when it is too low, the density of the dynamic cross-linked network is too low to effectively lock the liquid through the cooperation of hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds. The three-dimensional porous skeleton lacks gel support and is prone to pore collapse due to uneven swelling pressure after absorbing liquid, blocking the liquid diffusion path and affecting the water absorption effect; at the same time, excessive fluff pulp fibers will occupy the macro-pore space, resulting in the failure of the macro-micro hierarchical system, the disappearance of the capillary gradient effect, and a decrease in the lateral liquid diffusion rate. Too low a ratio leads to insufficient diffusion channels, and the diffusion of the liquid in the composite core layer is limited, making it difficult to maintain pore stability and the dynamic balance of liquid absorption.
[0095] It can be known from the comparison between Example 1, Example 5 and Example 6 and Comparative Example 8 and Comparative Example 9 that by precisely controlling the ultrasonic treatment time during the compounding of the core layer material, the full stretching of molecular chains and the stability of the dynamic crosslinking network can be achieved, making the molecular chains more dispersed and uniform, which helps to increase the specific surface area and porosity of the material, thereby improving the water absorption rate; when the ultrasonic time is too short, the molecular chains are not fully stretched, resulting in local agglomeration and a decrease in pore connectivity. At the same time, too long ultrasonic time is likely to cause the molecular chains inside the material to break and damage the pore structure inside the material, making it uneven or blocked, thus reducing the water absorption rate and effect.
