Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fibers, and specifically to a preparation method of antibacterial elastic moisture-absorbing fibers. Background Art

[0002] Polyacrylonitrile fibers are widely used in clothing fabrics, carpets, fiber membranes, etc. However, traditional polyacrylonitrile fibers and their fabric materials have low hydrophilicity and moisture absorption rate, poor wearing comfort, and poor performance in improving elasticity and antibacterial properties. Improving the hydrophilic moisture absorption, elasticity, and antibacterial properties of polyacrylonitrile fibers can enable polyacrylonitrile fibers to have better applications in high-grade clothing fabrics and textiles.

[0003] Adding organic antibacterial agents such as quaternary ammonium salts and inorganic antibacterial agents such as nano silver to polyacrylonitrile fibers can improve the antibacterial properties of the fibers. Polyurethane fibers have high resilience, tensile resistance, and other properties. The patent with the publication number CN117286637A discloses a unidirectional moisture-permeable antibacterial polyurethane / polyacrylonitrile Janus nanofiber membrane and its preparation method. A bulk antibacterial polyurethane PQU was prepared using QAS as a chain extender, and then an antibacterial PU / PAN Janus membrane with unidirectional moisture transfer characteristics was prepared by layer-by-layer electrospinning technology, which has good antibacterial properties and unidirectional water transfer characteristics. However, this patent does not improve the crimp elasticity, moisture regain rate, and other properties of polyacrylonitrile fibers. Summary of the Invention
