Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fabrics, in particular to a natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface material and a sanitary napkin. Background Art

[0002] Sanitary napkins are personal hygiene products used by women during menstruation. They are typically made of multiple layers of material, typically consisting of a top layer, an absorbent layer, a drainage layer, and a base layer. These layers effectively absorb and lock in menstrual blood while keeping the skin dry and comfortable. The top layer, as the part of the sanitary napkin that comes in direct contact with the skin, is crucially important. It must not only be skin-friendly and breathable, but also possess certain hygroscopic and antibacterial properties to reduce bacterial growth and maintain the health of the intimate area.

[0003] Traditional sanitary napkins are mostly made of chemical fiber nonwovens or cotton. While these materials have some performance in terms of moisture absorption and breathability, they lack antibacterial properties. In recent years, with increasing consumer awareness of health and environmental protection, natural plant-based fibers such as bamboo pulp and hemp have gradually become the preferred surface materials. Bamboo pulp, with its excellent moisture absorption and breathability, as well as its natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties, can effectively reduce bacterial growth and keep private areas clean. Hemp fiber, with its moisture absorption, breathability, comfort, mildew resistance, and antibacterial properties, is considered the most promising green fiber of the 21st century, a kind of second skin for humankind.

[0004] Therefore, to meet market demand for healthier and more environmentally friendly sanitary napkins, it is particularly important to develop a sanitary napkin surface material based on natural plant-based fibers, such as bamboo pulp or hemp, that combines antibacterial and anti-osmosis properties. This new surface material not only significantly improves the comfort and healthiness of sanitary napkins, but also effectively reduces the risk of infection in the private area, providing women with a safer and healthier menstrual care experience.

[0022] The present invention also provides a sanitary napkin, the surface layer material of which is prepared by the method for preparing the natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface layer material.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] When preparing the natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface layer material, the present invention first reacts bamboo pulp fiber pretreated with 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane with benzimidazole-1-acetic acid, and then undergoes amidation and sodium hypobromite degradation to obtain modified bamboo pulp fiber; secondly, hemp fiber is grafted with an initiator to initiate polymerization of acrylamide and N-isopropylacrylamide to obtain modified hemp fiber; finally, the modified bamboo pulp fiber and modified hemp fiber are subjected to cleaning, carding, web laying, hydroentanglement, degreasing, bleaching, and finishing with a finishing agent to obtain the natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface layer material.

[0025] The fabric of the present invention innovatively adopts a mixed double-layer and double-material combination, with a two-layer structure, that is, the upper layer is made of hemp fiber and the lower layer is made of bamboo pulp fiber structure, which is formed in one step through a spunlace process. This allows consumers to come into contact with the natural hemp fiber layer when using it, achieving an antibacterial and safe experience, and quickly conducts liquid through the lower bamboo pulp fiber layer, reducing the feeling of stuffiness and increasing comfort.

[0026] First, bamboo pulp fibers were pretreated with 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane to impart chlorine groups to the fibers. The chlorine groups then reacted with benzimidazole-1-acetic acid to form a quaternary ammonium salt with antibacterial properties. The quaternary ammonium salt was then amidated and degraded with sodium hypobromite to convert the carboxylic acid groups on the benzimidazole-1-acetic acid into amide groups, which were then degraded into amino groups.

[0027] Secondly, hemp fiber is grafted with an initiator to initiate the polymerization of acrylamide and N-isopropylacrylamide to obtain modified hemp fiber; hemp fiber has a cavity structure, and is connected to many cracks and small holes distributed longitudinally on the fiber surface. Its moisture-wicking ability is three times that of pure cotton. Hemp contains trace amounts of hemp phenols and more than ten trace elements that are beneficial to human health. Fibers containing polyacrylamide on the surface can enhance hydrophilicity;

[0028] Finally, the modified bamboo pulp fiber and modified hemp fiber are subjected to cleaning, carding, web laying, hydroentanglement, degreasing, bleaching, and finishing with a finishing agent to obtain a natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface material; the finishing agent is a mixture of formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate and imidazole quaternary ammonium salt, and the formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate mainly modifies the bamboo pulp fiber surface of the surface layer by Schiff base reaction with the amino groups on the surface of the modified bamboo pulp fiber. The imidazole quaternary ammonium salt contains both positively charged amino groups and positively charged carboxyl groups, and the quaternary ammonium salt structure on the surface of the bamboo pulp fiber of the surface layer also contains both positively charged amino groups and positively charged carboxyl groups, which can form a hydrogel film on the surface layer through self-assembly through the attraction between positive and negative charges. The hydrogel film has good water absorption and swelling properties, which can improve the water absorption of the material, and the quaternary ammonium salt structure can further improve the antibacterial performance; menstrual blood contains a small amount of calcium ions, and sodium alginate and polyacrylamide on the surface of hemp fiber can be cross-linked by calcium ions to form a network, which can not only improve the water absorption of the material, but also prevent the reverse osmosis of menstrual blood.

[0057] Absorption performance test:

[0058] Test Method: The back permeation of the Examples and Comparative Examples was tested according to the GB / T30133-2013 standard. The test solution used in the experiments was replaced with anticoagulated pig blood. The Examples and Comparative Examples were cut into 100 mm x 100 mm specimens. Each specimen was tested five times, and the average value was taken. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0061] From the comparison of the experimental data of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 in Table 1, it can be found that the antibacterial sanitary napkin surface layer material prepared by the present invention has good anti-rewetting performance.

[0062] By comparison, the back-seepage amount of Examples 1 to 3 is less than that of Comparative Examples 1 to 2, indicating that the modified bamboo pulp fiber and the modified hemp fiber are subjected to cleaning, carding, web laying, hydroentanglement, degreasing, bleaching, and finishing with a finishing agent to obtain a natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface material; the finishing agent is a mixture of formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate and imidazole quaternary ammonium salt, the formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate reacts with the amino groups on the surface of the modified bamboo pulp fiber to mainly modify the surface of the bamboo pulp fiber, and the imidazole quaternary ammonium salt contains both positively charged amino groups and The positively charged carboxyl group and the quaternary ammonium salt structure on the surface of the bamboo pulp fiber also contain positively charged amino groups and positively charged carboxyl groups. They can form a hydrogel film on the surface through self-assembly through the attraction between positive and negative charges. The hydrogel film has good water absorption and swelling properties, which can improve the water absorption of the material; menstrual blood contains a small amount of calcium ions, and sodium alginate and polyacrylamide on the surface of hemp fiber can be cross-linked through calcium ions to form a network, which can not only improve the water absorption of the material, but also prevent the reverse osmosis of menstrual blood.

[0063] Test Example 2:

[0064] Antibacterial performance test:

[0065] Test method: The antibacterial properties of the sanitary napkin fabrics prepared in the examples and comparative examples were tested according to the GB / T20944.2 standard. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0067] Antibacterial rate (%) Antibacterial rate (%) Example 1 99.74 Comparative Example 1 92.31 Example 2 99.81 Comparative Example 2 99.63 Example 3 99.89

[0068] From the comparison of the experimental data of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 2 in Table 2, it can be found that the antibacterial sanitary napkin surface layer material prepared by the present invention has good antibacterial properties.

[0069] By comparison, the antibacterial rates of Examples 1 to 3 are greater than that of Comparative Example 1, indicating that the bamboo pulp fibers pretreated with 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane carry chlorine groups on the bamboo pulp fibers, and the chlorine groups react with benzimidazole-1-acetic acid to generate quaternary ammonium salts with antibacterial properties. The modified bamboo pulp fibers and modified hemp fibers are subjected to cleaning, carding, web laying, hydroentanglement, degreasing, bleaching, and finishing with a finishing agent to obtain a natural plant-based antibacterial sanitary napkin surface material; the finishing agent is a mixture of formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate and imidazole quaternary ammonium salt, and the formaldehyde-modified sodium alginate is obtained. By reacting the amino groups on the surface of the modified bamboo pulp fiber with a Schiff base, the surface of the bamboo pulp fiber is mainly modified. The imidazole quaternary ammonium salt contains both positively charged amino groups and positively charged carboxyl groups. The quaternary ammonium salt structure on the surface of the bamboo pulp fiber also contains both positively charged amino groups and positively charged carboxyl groups. It can form a hydrogel film on the surface through self-assembly through the attraction between positive and negative charges. The hydrogel film has good water absorption and swelling properties, which can improve the water absorption of the material. The quaternary ammonium salt structure can further improve the antibacterial properties.
