[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of fabric production, and particularly relates to a lactic acid ramie two-sided fabric and its production process. Background Art

[0002] With the progress of global technology and the improvement of environmental protection awareness, polylactic acid (PLA) fabric is a new type of environmentally friendly fiber emerging in the textile industry in recent years. It is a natural material that can replace traditional synthetic fibers and reduce environmental pollution. It has biodegradable properties and can decompose rapidly in the natural environment without causing pollution to the environment, becoming a more environmentally friendly material.

[0003] Ramie fiber, as an excellent natural textile yarn, has a natural slub appearance and functions such as temperature regulation, moisture absorption and ventilation, anti-allergy, anti-static, antibacterial and environmental protection. Its finished products belong to mid- to high-end products.

[0004] When ramie fiber and polylactic acid fiber are used in combination, the application of the two materials is extended. Polylactic acid (PLA) fiber has high crystallinity, high hardness, poor fracture and strength properties, and causes relatively large damage to machines and wear to needle hooks. Ramie fiber has uneven yarn evenness and is relatively hard, making weaving difficult and causing relatively large damage to machines. Moreover, linen products are prone to wrinkling, not easy to care for, prone to itching, and the fabric has insufficient softness, affecting the wearing comfort. Summary of the Invention

[0023] Beneficial effects

[0024] The present invention uses Lyocell ramie blended yarn and polylactic acid filament, extending the common performance advantages of the two materials, and at the same time bringing a natural style to the fabric. Through the innovation of the setting and dyeing processes, the softness of polylactic acid is maintained, and the risk of ramie itchiness is reduced under low - temperature conditions. Specific embodiments

[0025] The present invention will be further described in conjunction with embodiments.

[0026] As an embodiment of the present invention, a manufacturing process for a lactic acid ramie double - sided fabric includes the following steps:

[0027] I. Yarn preparation:

[0028] A: The mass percentage of the siro - compact spun blended yarn of 50S / 1 13% ramie fiber and 87% Lyocell fiber is 46.5%;

[0029] B: The mass percentage of 75D / 72F PLA / DTY full dull is 33.2%;

[0030] C: The mass percentage of 30D low - temperature spandex is 20.3%;

[0031] The blended yarn is made of 13% ramie fiber and 87% lyocell fiber by a siro compact spinning machine. The yarn has bright colors and good moisture absorption and air permeability. The addition of lyocell fiber to ramie fiber increases the softness of the yarn and makes the yarn even, avoiding the phenomenon of bursting caused by the toughness of ramie yarn in previous weaving. The natural bamboo effect of ramie fiber also gives the cloth a natural texture.

[0032] The combination of spandex and polylactic acid filaments can enhance the mechanical strength of polylactic acid filaments and prevent breakage, avoiding the phenomenon of yarn breakage during high-density weft knitting, and improving the problems of poor mechanical strength and breakage of polylactic acid filaments to a certain extent.

[0033] 2. Grey cloth weaving production:

[0034] The prepared yarn is woven into grey cloth on a circular knitting machine, and the steps include:

[0035] Arrange needles → triangle layout → cover triangle seat → hang polylactic acid filament on the yarn rack → thread the yarn to the yarn feeder and yarn nozzle → hang spandex on the spandex rack → hang yarn on needles → start the machine and adjust the conveyor disc;

[0036] The circular knitting machine is a double-sided machine with two needle tracks and dense needles. It uses a 34-inch needle cylinder, 28 needles per inch, and high and low needle butts with a thickness of 41 threads. According to 2 needles / cycle, the upper needle high butt needle and the lower needle low butt needle are opposite, and the upper needle low butt needle and the lower needle high butt needle are opposite. A circle of triangle seats are installed on the top and side of the needle cylinder respectively. Every 6 triangle seats form a cycle, and each triangle seat has two high and low butt needle tracks. After arranging the needle angles according to Table 1, hang the polylactic acid filament and blended yarn on the yarn rack one by one, and hang the spandex on the spandex rack. Start arranging the yarn from the first route, hang the traction yarn on the knitting needle, insert the yarn into a loop, and string the continuous unit coils in one direction to form a knitted grey cloth.

[0037] Adjust the conveyor plate to the length of the polylactic acid fiber yarn is 27.5cm / the length of the blended yarn is 27.5cm / the length of the spandex yarn is 14cm=50 cycles / 100 needles. After verifying that the process is correct, the machine can be started for production.

[0038] Table 1: Needle angle table of circular knitting machine

[0039]

[0040] In this process, there are more spandex paths. To ensure uniform feeding of spandex and a flat fabric surface, based on the traditional spandex frame, the present invention increases the original weight. On the spandex ball mounting rack, the weight of the roller wheel increases the downward force on the spandex ball. During the production process, when the spandex ball becomes lighter, it is fixed on the spandex frame, preventing it from shifting horizontally or bouncing left and right. Thus, during the production process, the spandex changes from passive yarn feeding to active yarn feeding, the yarn feeding is more stable, the fabric surface effect is smoother, and the fabric quality is improved.

[0041] III. The dyeing and finishing process includes: pre-treatment for fabric dyeing, fabric sizing, dyeing, shaping, and inspection and warehousing.

[0042] 1. Existing difficulties in the dyeing and finishing process:

[0043] (1) Temperature contradiction in the existing shaping process: The conflict between the temperature resistance limit of polylactic acid fiber (135 - 140 °C / 15 s) and the shaping temperature requirement of spandex (≥130 °C);

[0044] (2) Defects in the traditional dyeing process: Insufficient color uptake rate of polylactic acid fiber caused by spandex robbing color, resulting in a color fastness to rubbing of dark colors ≤ 1 - 2 levels;

[0045] (3) Double effects of thermal damage: High-temperature shaping causes the hardening of polylactic acid fiber (crystallinity increases to ≥45%). The softening point of conventional spandex is around 185 °C. At a dyeing temperature of 125 °C for 30 minutes, the elastic modulus loss of spandex is ≥30%. The softening point of low-melting-point spandex is around 120 - 140 °C. When the holding time at 100 °C is extended, the strength loss is obvious.

[0046] To address the above problems, according to the physical and chemical properties of polylactic acid fiber such as heat sensitivity and sensitivity to acids and alkalis, as well as the temperature resistance requirements of spandex, combined with the process optimization goals: rapid temperature rise and fall, using a pH value close to the hydrolysis point of polylactic acid to enable low-temperature dyeing of polylactic acid, low-temperature dyeing to reduce spandex color staining, and low-temperature dyeing to maintain the hand feeling, etc., the dyeing and finishing process is optimized. Through staged temperature control and the synergistic effect of auxiliaries, low-damage and high-quality dyeing and finishing processing of polylactic acid filament and spandex interwoven fabrics are achieved.

[0047] 2. Staged fabric sizing process:

[0048] Three-zone temperature control: Drying zone → Rapid setting zone → Slow cooling zone. Among them, the temperature of the drying zone is 120 - 130 °C, with an error controlled within ±5 °C, the residence time does not exceed 84 seconds, and the wind speed is 1 - 2 m / s; the temperature of the rapid setting zone is 145 - 155 °C, with an error controlled within ±5 °C, the residence time does not exceed 12 seconds, and the wind speed is 1.5 - 2.5 m / s; the temperature of the slow cooling zone is 125 - 135 °C, with an error controlled within ±5 °C, the residence time does not exceed 8 seconds, and the wind speed is 0.5 - 1.0 m / s. During the operation process, it is necessary to precisely control the time so that the fabric is exposed for ≤8 seconds at the critical temperature of 135 °C in the slow cooling zone; after the segmented embryo setting is completed, cooling is ensured through a cooling box. When the outlet temperature of the cooling box <80 °C, the crystallinity of the polylactic acid fiber can be controlled ≤35%.

[0049] Adopt a 9-box MONFUNG type setting machine, use gas heating, set the temperature and wind speed of the setting machine by box section, and set the machine speed at 18 meters per minute. Cooling rate of the cooling box: It takes 15 seconds from 80 °C to 30 °C, and the air volume of the cooling fan is 3000 m 3 / h.

[0051] Cabinet Temperature (°C) Air velocity (m / s) Residence time 1-7 125 1.5 84 8 150 2.0 12 9 133 0.8 8

[0052] 3. Controllable hydrolysis dyeing process:

[0053] When the pH value window is controlled at 2.8 - 3.0, the hydrolysis rate of the polylactic acid fiber can be controlled at 0.5 - 1.2%, control the dyeing temperature at 80 °C for 30 min, and the low-temperature synergistic dyeing makes the dye uptake rate of the polylactic acid fiber >85%, and the mechanical strength retention rate of spandex >90%. Add 0.5 - 1.2 g / L polydimethylsiloxane heat stabilizer and 1.5 - 2.5 g / L anionic anti-staining agent in the dyeing process to make the coloring uniform and improve the staining fastness.
