Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to an environment-friendly preparation method for anti-sticking sofa leather, belonging to the technical field of leather manufacturing. Background Art
[0002] A leather sofa is a seat made of leather processed from animal skins such as pigskin, cowhide, and sheepskin through specific processes. Since the leather made has functions such as breathability and, importantly, very good softness, using it to make a seat makes people sit very comfortably and is not easily soiled. A genuine leather sofa adds a lot of nobility and elegance to the living room. The maintenance of a genuine leather sofa is very important. If used for a long time and not properly maintained, it will fade, become old, lose its luster, and the leather will lack ductility and cause the sofa to deform. Among them, a cowhide sofa has soft, thick leather and the highest grade.
[0003] Since a sofa is a large piece of furniture and is usually used for several years, its durability has increasingly attracted the attention of consumers. During the use of a sofa, the leather fabric in contact with the outside world is often subjected to friction and scratching, especially the protruding parts at the edges of the stitches, which are prone to breakage due to friction and scratching, resulting in quality problems such as cracking and coating peeling. In addition, when the sofa leather is stacked and stored after processing, the leather surface coating is damaged due to the adhesion of the finishing layer, causing damage to the sofa leather. And currently commonly used water-based finishing agents contain a certain amount of organic solvents or small molecule volatile organic additives. During the preparation of sofa leather, these organic solvents or small molecule volatile organic additives will escape into the atmosphere, causing environmental pollution.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an environment-friendly preparation method for anti-sticking sofa leather. Summary of the Invention

[0023] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

The quaternary ammonium salt group, thionylcarbonyl group, disulfide segment, and fluorinated carbon chain in the functional monomer have dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and have a relatively long molecular chain, which can diffuse far away in the emulsion and the coating to exert dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. Moreover, the imidazolidinone group with a shorter molecular chain also has weak dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, which can form a stepped structure with the quaternary ammonium salt group, thionylcarbonyl group, disulfide segment, and fluorinated carbon chain to exert double-layer dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, thereby improving the wetting and dispersion stability of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide and the wear resistance, water permeability, and folding resistance of the coating.
[0026] (3) The present invention screens nano-fillers compatible with the acrylate emulsion, which can avoid the problem that the poor affinity between the nano-fillers and the acrylate emulsion leads to easy agglomeration during coating, blocking the leather pores, and reducing the water permeability of the leather. In addition, the present invention adjusts the particle sizes of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide, and uses nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide with different particle sizes to form a stronger rough structure, improving the wear resistance, folding resistance, and water permeability of the finishing layer.
[0027] (4) The present invention adjusts the hydrophilicity-hydrophobicity of the quaternary ammonium salt carbon chain and the ionic radius of the anion in the acrylate emulsion, improving the wetting and dispersion stability of the acrylate emulsion to nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide and the degree of stretching of the acrylate molecular chain, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the anti-sticking sofa leather.
[0028] (5) Through the two-stage heating and drying process of the present invention, the stable dispersion and embedding of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide in the emulsion are improved, forming a uniform and stable coating system, and improving the comprehensive performance of the coating layer.

[0095] Effect Example
[0096] In order to investigate the comprehensive performance of the anti - sticking sofa leather prepared in each example, the anti - sticking performance, water vapor permeability performance, wear resistance performance and folding resistance performance of the anti - sticking sofa leather were tested. Among them, the anti - sticking performance was evaluated by contact angle, tape adhesion and anti - sticking test; during the evaluation, a contact angle measuring instrument was used to measure the contact angle r between the leather finishing layer on the leather surface and water; the anti - sticking sofa leather was placed flat on the test bench, and then a polyurethane tape with a certain width and length was pasted on the leather finishing layer of the anti - sticking sofa leather, and a 1 kg heavy object was pressed for 24 h, and then the tape was pulled with a tensiometer to measure the adhesion force F between the tape and the leather finishing layer; the anti - sticking test was to stack multiple layers of leather under the same conditions, and then test and record the longest stacking storage time when the finishing layer adhered and damaged the leather surface coating, that is, the leather surface adhesion time T; according to the method specified in the standard QBT 1811 - 1993 "Test Method for Water Vapor Permeability of Leather", the water vapor permeability P of the semi - finished leather and the prepared anti - sticking sofa leather in each example was tested; according to the method specified in the standard SATRA TM 163 "Taber Abrasion Test", the wear resistance of the leather finishing layer of the anti - sticking sofa leather prepared in each example was tested, and the experimental result was expressed by the mass loss M0 of the specimen; according to the method specified in the standard QBT 2714 - 2005 "Determination of Folding Fastness of Leather - Physical and Mechanical Tests", the folding fastness of the anti - sticking sofa leather prepared in each example was tested. During the test, a folding resistance testing machine was used, and the test mode was dry - state test. The experimental result was expressed by the maximum number of folding resistance times N when the leather finishing layer of the folded part on the leather surface did not show damage. The comprehensive performance of the anti - sticking sofa leather prepared in each example is shown in Table 1.
[0097] Table 1 Comprehensive Performance of Anti - sticking Sofa Leather Prepared in Each Example
[0098]
[0099] As can be seen from Table 1, the anti - sticking sofa leather prepared in Examples 1 - 3 shows strong hydrophobic properties, has a low adhesion force to polyurethane tape, has little influence on the water vapor permeability of the leather, and has good wear resistance and folding resistance performance, and the number of folding resistance times is greater than 200,000 times.
[0100] Compared with Example 1, after replacing nano-titanium dioxide with nano-zinc oxide or replacing nano-silica with nano-bentonite, the hydrophobic property of the anti-sticking sofa leather slightly decreases, and the adhesion to the polyurethane tape increases. This indicates that the anti-sticking effect of the finishing agent prepared with nano-zinc oxide or nano-bentonite is slightly worse. Moreover, the water vapor permeability of the anti-sticking sofa leather prepared in Examples 4 - 5 decreases significantly compared to the leather blank, suggesting that nano-zinc oxide or nano-bentonite has a greater impact on the water vapor permeability of the leather and is not conducive to maintaining the water vapor permeability of the leather. This may be because the affinity between nano-zinc oxide or nano-bentonite and the acrylate emulsion is poor, and they are prone to agglomeration during coating, blocking the pores of the leather and resulting in a decrease in water vapor permeability. Additionally, the abrasion resistance and folding resistance of the anti-sticking sofa leather prepared in Examples 4 - 5 also deteriorate, which may also be related to the poor affinity between nano-zinc oxide or nano-bentonite and the acrylate emulsion.
[0101] Compared with Example 1, when changing the quaternary ammonium salt carbon chain length or the anion type in the thiofluoroate quaternary ammonium salt monomer, the contact angle of the anti-sticking sofa leather with water and the adhesion to the polyurethane tape increase, and the abrasion resistance and folding resistance deteriorate. Moreover, the water vapor permeability of the leather blank becomes worse. This may be because the hydrophilic-hydrophobic property of the quaternary ammonium salt carbon chain in the acrylate emulsion and the relatively large ionic radius of the bromide ion lead to poor wetting and dispersion stability of the acrylate emulsion with nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide, as well as poor stretching degree of the acrylate molecular chain.
[0102] Compared with Example 1, when replacing the functional monomer with the thiofluoroate quaternary ammonium salt monomer, the comprehensive performance of the prepared anti-sticking sofa leather is poor and cannot meet the usage requirements. This indicates that using the functional monomer can effectively improve the comprehensive performance of the anti-sticking sofa leather. This is because of the unique molecular composition and structure of the functional monomer. The quaternary ammonium salt group, thioxocarbonyl group, disulfide segment, and fluorinated carbon chain in it have dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, and have a relatively long molecular chain, which can diffuse far away in the emulsion and coating, exerting dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. Moreover, the imidazolidinone group with a shorter molecular chain also has weak dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, which can form a stepped structure with the quaternary ammonium salt group, thioxocarbonyl group, disulfide segment, and fluorinated carbon chain, exerting double-layer dual hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, thereby improving the wetting and dispersion stability with nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide, as well as the abrasion resistance, water vapor permeability, and folding resistance of the coating.
[0103] Compared with Example 1, after adjusting the particle sizes of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide, the comprehensive performance of the anti-sticking sofa leather also deteriorates. This may be because nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide with different particle sizes can form a stronger rough structure, improving the abrasion resistance, folding resistance, and water vapor permeability of the finishing layer. However, after changing the particle sizes, the dispersion arrangement of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide in the emulsion and the formed rough structure change, resulting in a deterioration of the comprehensive performance.
[0104] Compared with Example 1, when one-stage heating and drying is adopted, the comprehensive performance of the anti-stick sofa leather prepared is also slightly worse. This may be because the two-stage heating and drying process is conducive to the stable dispersion and embedding of nano-silica and nano-titanium dioxide in the emulsion, forming a uniform and stable coating system and improving the comprehensive performance of the finishing layer.
