Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of functional fibers, and particularly relates to a radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber, fabric with a structure imitating human epidermal wrinkles, and their preparation and application. Background Art

[0002] Passive daytime radiative cooling (PDRC) is an efficient zero - energy cooling technology that radiates heat into outer space using the atmospheric transparency window, thereby achieving passive cooling. The characteristics of PDRC materials are high emissivity in the atmospheric transparency spectrum (8 - 13 μm) range and high reflectivity in the solar spectrum band (0.25 - 2.5 μm) range. These properties enable the material to exhibit radiative cooling performance during the day. The potential applications of this technology have been demonstrated, including reducing building energy consumption, developing smart textiles, and solutions for keeping food fresh. In particular, radiative cooling fabrics achieve zero - energy consumption in hot outdoor environments, thus reducing the dependence of personal heat management on air conditioners and other high - energy - consuming refrigeration devices. Currently, the research on radiative cooling fabrics has used polymers, including polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinylidene fluoride, cellulose, etc. The molecular bond vibration wavelengths of these polymers are in the range of 8 - 13 μm, and they have the advantages of simple processing, low cost, and high emissivity. However, these polymers are more extracted from petroleum products and inevitably cause pollution during the production process. Obviously, in the field of PDRC applications, it is still an urgent task to develop radiative cooling fabrics that meet the standards of human comfort, durability, renewability, and sustainability.

[0003] In addition, studies have shown that polymers exposed to a large amount of solar heat radiation (about 1000 W·m -2 ) will reduce their thermoregulation efficacy due to internal structural disorder. In addition to utilizing the inherent properties of materials, spectral characteristic structures are also an important research field. In recent years, designing bionic structures has become a common method to improve the scattering efficiency of materials. Natural organisms such as silver ants and butterflies regulate their body temperature by changing their physical properties to adapt to the surrounding environment. Researchers have used a template - assisted process to add aluminum oxide (Al2O3) to polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) to prepare a flexible PDRC film with a triangular cross - section on the surface. In addition, the human skin is an extraordinary biological structure that has the ability to regulate body temperature when its temperature is higher than the surrounding environment. This is achieved by adopting a three - layer structure that can spontaneously transfer heat to the surrounding environment through radiation. Studies have shown that from the perspective of the skin epidermal structure, a replicated skin epidermal structure RC fabric can be manufactured by mixing various nanoparticles to prepare a photon coating (RC) and coating it on the fabric surface.

[0004] However, current research on cellulose-based radiative cooling fabrics mainly focuses on preparation through surface synthesis and fabric coating. These methods can endow the fabric with radiative cooling performance by forming a thin film on the fabric surface. However, the thickness of the coating and the weak interfacial interaction with the fabric will not only affect the mechanical properties of the fabric but also reduce the softness, breathability, and moisture permeability of the fabric, thus affecting the wearable performance of the fabric. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber, fabric with a structure imitating human epidermal wrinkles, and their preparation and application, particularly a radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber with a structure imitating human epidermal wrinkles, which can generate structural influence and hydrogen bond interaction between materials to endow the fiber with application stability, and its preparation and application.

[0019] By adjusting the mixing ratio of the materials, the solvent replacement rate of the fiber in the coagulation bath is regulated, thereby producing different degrees of wrinkling effects.

[0020] Preferably, the concentration of cellulose in the spinning solution is 4-9 wt.%.

[0021] Preferably, the cellulose is cellulose with a methyl cellulose content of 92-96%, and further preferably, the cellulose is wood cellulose.

[0022] Further, the preparation method of the cellulose includes: subjecting the wood to hot water pretreatment and / or cooking in a mixed solution containing sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfite, washing, then bleaching with a sodium hypochlorite solution until the pulp becomes white, and then performing cold alkali extraction and washing to obtain cellulose (cellulose with a methyl cellulose content of 92-96%).

[0023] The wood includes at least one of basswood and balsa wood; the concentration of sodium hydroxide in the mixed solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfite is 40-70 g / L, and the concentration of sodium sulfite is 26-46 g / L; the mass ratio of the mixed solution to the wood is 10:1; the mass percentage concentration of the sodium hypochlorite solution is 0.5-5 wt.%; the mass percentage concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution in the cold alkali extraction is 5-15 wt.%.

[0024] Preferably, the reaction temperature of the wood in the hot water pretreatment is 170-200 °C, and the time is 2-4 h; the wood reacts and is washed in the mixed solution of sodium hydroxide and sodium sulfite, where the reaction temperature is 150-170 °C and the time is 1-3 h; the washing is washing with deionized water 3-5 times.

[0030] The present invention provides a fabric, which is a fabric woven from a raw material containing any of the regenerated cellulose materials or a raw material containing a regenerated cellulose material prepared by any of the methods.

[0031] The weaving method can be a woven structure or a knitted structure.

[0032] The present invention provides an application of any of the regenerated cellulose materials, a regenerated cellulose material prepared by any of the methods, or the fabric in the field of radiative cooling.

[0033] The present invention solves the problem that current traditional regenerated cellulose fibers have high absorption of sunlight. Inspired by the epidermal structure of the human body, by using the intermolecular vibration of cellulose and highly reflective nanomaterials such as silica nanoparticles, a bionic composite regenerated cellulose fiber with good air permeability, moisture permeability, abrasion resistance, and radiative cooling performance is constructed into a fabric, which has important practical significance for the development of the bio-based fabric field. The present invention provides a method for simulating the human epidermal structure to enhance the optical properties of materials in the visible light spectrum. By incorporating silica nanoparticles into the cellulose solution and using the dense surface structure formed during the regeneration and spinning process, a composite fiber with bionic surface wrinkles is prepared. This fiber utilizes the hydrogen bond interaction between cellulose and nanoparticles to enhance the mechanical properties of the fiber and combines the excellent spectral selectivity of both, enabling the woven fabric to reflect more sunlight and radiate heat to outer space in the actual environment.

[0034] The present invention uses wood (such as basswood), removes lignin, hemicellulose, etc. in the wood through treatment to obtain cellulose with a high methyl cellulose content. By using an alkali-urea solution to isolate the hydrogen bond interaction between cellulose molecules at low temperature, cellulose is dissolved to obtain a regenerated cellulose solution. At the same time, nanomaterials (silica particles) are dispersed in the cellulose solvent, and cellulose and nanomaterials (silica) are mixed together by low-temperature freezing and high-speed mechanical stirring to obtain a regenerated cellulose / nanomaterial mixed solution. Then, through the wet spinning method, the barrier between cellulose chains is removed by acid-base neutralization, and cellulose molecules are re-bonded together through hydrogen bonds, and form hydrogen bond interactions with the hydroxyl groups of nanomaterials (silica). The pleats formed by the solidification of the double-diffusion effect during cellulose regeneration, combined with the hindering effect of nanomaterials (silica), make the surface wrinkles larger and enhance the mechanical properties of the fibers, increase the specific surface area of the fibers, and thus increase the scattering efficiency of the fibers. The fibers are woven into fabrics by different weaving methods for application tests of radiative cooling. This kind of fabric not only utilizes the chemical structure of cellulose itself and the excellent spectral selectivity of nanomaterials (silica nanoparticles), but also utilizes the surface structure after their synergistic regeneration, which increases the scattering path of light, improves the reflectivity of sunlight, and helps to enhance the emissivity of the atmospheric window. In addition, the raw materials required by this method are simple and easy to obtain, the preparation method is simple and feasible, the cost is low and environmentally friendly, it is a very promising personal thermal management material, and at the same time provides a feasible new idea for the field of regenerated cellulose fibers.

[0035] Beneficial effects

[0037] (2) There is currently no report on studying the influence of adjusting the concentration of nanomaterials such as silica on the surface wrinkles of cellulose fibers. The present invention provides a new idea for the application of regenerated cellulose fibers and at the same time provides a new idea for the construction of bio-based fabrics;

[0038] (3) The existing preparation of cellulose-based fabrics for radiative cooling mainly involves synthesizing nanoparticles on the surface or spraying radiative cooling fillers. However, the thickness of the coating and the interfacial force with the fabric still affect the wearability and stability of the fabric. Inspired by the human epidermal structure, the present invention continuously spun to prepare cooling regenerated cellulose / nanomaterial (silica nanoparticles) fibers. The biomimetic micro-nano structure of this fiber is the result of restricted solution gelation, thus forming a wrinkled surface with an increased specific surface area. By systematically adjusting the concentration of silica nanoparticles, radiative cooling fibers with high reflectivity and high emissivity were prepared. The adhesion of the nanomaterial (silica) to the fiber was enhanced through the hydrogen bonding formed between cellulose and the nanomaterial (silica), reducing losses and enhancing the mechanical properties of the fiber, making it capable of being woven;

[0039] (4) Most of the fiber raw materials prepared in the present invention are derived from biomass materials, which are widely sourced and easily available. This not only achieves better biocompatibility effects but also greatly promotes the high-quality and high-value conversion of biomass materials.

[0040] (5) The radiative cooling fabric woven in the present invention has a reflectivity of 81 - 93% in the solar band and an emissivity of 0.93 - 0.98 in the atmospheric window band, and can achieve a cooling effect of 3 - 8 °C lower than the ambient temperature.

[0041] (6) The raw materials required by the method of the present invention are simple and easily available, the preparation method is simple and feasible, the cost is low and environmentally friendly. It is a very promising personal thermal management material, and at the same time provides a feasible new idea for the application of regenerated cellulose fibers in the field of radiative cooling.

[0061] Product Structure and Performance Characterization:

[0062] The following will illustrate the structure and performance of the radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber imitating the epidermal fold structure of the human body in the present invention through infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, mechanical properties, reflectivity, and emissivity tests.

[0063] 1. Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)

[0064] Figure 1 (a) shows the infrared spectra of wood cellulose before and after purification. Compared with wood, the peak intensities of the characteristic peaks of lignin and hemicellulose gradually disappear at 1520 cm -1 and 1730 cm -1 , indicating the success of purifying wood cellulose, which is beneficial for subsequent improvement of cellulose solubility and fiber mechanical strength, etc.; Figure 1 (b) shows the infrared spectra of the fibers in Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3. Compared with Example 1, the Si-O-Si of silica is increased in Example 2 and shifted from 850 cm -1 to 1020 cm -1 , indicating a strong intermolecular hydrogen bond interaction between cellulose and silica; compared with Example 2, a strong sharp peak appears at 1363 cm -1 in Example 3, indicating the stretching vibration absorption peak of CH-O-CH generated between epichlorohydrin and the hydroxyl groups of cellulose. Based on the above analysis, it is considered that the radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber imitating the epidermal fold structure of the human body is successfully prepared.

[0065] 2. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

[0066] Figure 2(a, b) are the scanning electron microscope images of wood cellulose before and after purification. Compared with the unpurified wood, after treatment, the lignin and hemicellulose in the wood block are dissolved out, and the structure changes from a network where the three are interconnected to aggregated cellulose fibers, greatly promoting the infiltration of the solvent components and the dissolution of cellulose. Figure 2 (c, d) are the scanning electron microscope images of the fiber in Example 1 and Example 4 respectively. After adding silica, the surface of the fiber changes from a mostly porous network structure to a wrinkled micro-structure with uniformly distributed nanoparticles. Based on the above analysis, it is considered that the preparation of the radiative cooling regenerated cellulose fiber imitating the epidermal wrinkled structure of the human body is successful.

[0067] 3. Atomic Force Microscope (AFM)

[0068] Measure the height of the wrinkles on the fiber surface, and obtain the height change map by using the interaction force between the atomic force probe and the surface wrinkled structure. Figure 3 a is for Example 1 and Figure 3 b is for Example 2, showing the change map of the wrinkle height on the fiber surface before and after adding silica. After adding silica, the wrinkle height on the fiber surface increases from the original 0.5 μm to 1.35 μm, increasing the specific surface area of the fiber, enlarging the area for reflecting sunlight, and improving the scattering efficiency of the fiber.

[0069] 4. Mechanical Property Test

[0070] Select fibers with similar diameters, and use an electronic universal testing machine to stretch the fibers at a stretching speed of 2 mm / min, and record the real-time changes in mechanical properties. Figure 4 Shows the comparison of the mechanical properties of Example 1 and Example 2 before and after adding silica. After adding silica, the mechanical properties of the fiber decrease, but only by 6 MPa, and the strain change is not significant. The comparison of the mechanical property changes of Example 2 and Example 3 with and without crosslinking and Example 3 shows that after introducing chemical crosslinking through pre-crosslinking with chemical bonds, the mechanical properties of the fiber increase from 16 MPa to 22.5 MPa, and the strain increases from 20% to 23.5%. The comparison of the mechanical property changes of Example 4 with an increased silica concentration shows that after adding particles, the mechanical properties of the fiber decrease from 22.5 MPa to 12 MPa, and the strain remains unchanged. Therefore, in summary, the mechanical properties are improved after introducing chemical crosslinking, but the addition of silica will reduce the mechanical properties to a certain extent, but it does not affect the weavability and improves the reflectivity of the fabric, enabling the radiative cooling performance of the cellulose-based fabric.

[0071] 5. Measurement of Reflectivity and Emissivity

[0072] By weaving the fibers of the three examples, the reflectivity of the fabric in the visible light band and the emissivity in the atmospheric window band are respectively measured on an ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectrometer and an infrared spectrometer with a gold integrating sphere. As Figure 5As shown in a, the average reflectance of Examples 1 to 4 is 77%, 81% and 93% respectively. Among them, the composite fiber in Example 4 has the highest reflectance, indicating that silica can effectively increase the specific surface area of the fiber, thereby increasing the scattering efficiency in the solar band. From Figure 5 As shown in b, due to the chemical structure of cellulose itself, the emissivity of the three fibers changes little, increasing from 0.93 to 0.98.
