Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of nanofiber materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a moisture-resistant nanofiber material for filtering dust and removing CO. Background Art

[0002] The conditions of coal mining are complex, the working environment of operators is relatively poor, and there are a lot of dust, harmful gases, physical and noise hazards in the mining process. Among them, dust hazards are the most serious. Mining operators will absorb a lot of dust and harmful substances during long-term operations, which is prone to pneumoconiosis. In 2023, there were 27,240 new cases of occupational diseases, including 23,812 cases of pneumoconiosis, accounting for as much as 87.4%. Now workers are facing the hazards of pneumoconiosis, including various exposure to dust, toxic chemicals, radioactive substances, etc. The most common and serious pneumoconiosis are coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis, and the number of coal workers' pneumoconiosis can account for more than half of pneumoconiosis patients. At present, there are a large number of people employed in the coal industry, and the mining conditions are complex. There are many occupational safety hazards. Timely deployment and correct use of personal protective equipment are particularly important for ensuring the safety and health of the majority of coal workers. Dust hazards are the most serious occupational hazards in the coal industry, followed by toxic and harmful gas hazards. Dust protection for coal miners can be considered from two aspects. First, reduce or eliminate the harm of coal mine dust to workers from the perspective of engineering technology; however, due to various factors such as enterprise cost and technical capabilities, when engineering technology cannot completely eliminate the harm of dust, it is necessary to consider equipping coal miners with respiratory protection equipment. This method has now become an important means to protect the health of coal miners. Therefore, it is particularly important to prepare an individual protective material with good dust filtration effect and toxic and harmful gas separation.

[0003] With the development of nanotechnology, electrospinning, as a simple and effective new processing technology for producing nanofibers, plays a huge role in the fields of filtration and protection, catalysis, energy, etc. In addition to its small diameter, electrospun fibers also have the advantages of small pore size, high porosity, and good fiber uniformity, which makes them show great application potential in the fields of gas filtration, liquid filtration, and personal protection. Therefore, electrospinning technology is used as the main method for preparing individual dust protection materials.

[0004] Electrospinning technology is a method that uses high-voltage electrostatic field forces to stretch polymer solutions or melts into nanofibers. In a typical electrospinning process, the polymer solution is loaded into a syringe and formed into droplets through a needle. Then, under the action of high voltage, the droplets overcome surface tension to form a jet. As the solvent evaporates, the jet solidifies to form nanofibers, which are eventually deposited on a collection device to form a fiber membrane. This technology can produce fibers with diameters ranging from tens of nanometers to several microns, with characteristics such as large specific surface area, high porosity and uniform fiber diameter. It is widely used in filter materials, biomedical materials, sensors and other fields.

[0005] CO is the most common and dangerous gas among the toxic and harmful gases in mines. The established method for removing carbon monoxide from breathing air is to equip personal protective materials with an active substance to produce adsorptive or reactive carbon monoxide removal. Many catalytically active components, such as loaded precious metals or transition metal oxides, are known to remove carbon monoxide by catalytic oxidation with atmospheric oxygen at room temperature. Copper manganese oxide is a well-known carbon monoxide catalyst. However, a major disadvantage of copper manganese oxides is their weak stability to water vapor, which is inevitably contained in breathing air and adsorbs on the surface of copper manganese oxide more strongly than carbon monoxide, thereby reducing its catalytic performance. Therefore, improving the moisture resistance of copper manganese oxide in breathing materials is an important way to solve the CO problem. Summary of the invention
