Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a process for preparing a composite modified cellulose sponge by modifying agricultural waste straw cellulose and then immobilizing nano-Cu3N, and its application in removing bacteria in water bodies, belonging to the technical field of natural polymer materials. Background Art
[0002] Although the birth of antibiotics and the popularization of vaccines have, to a certain extent, achieved the control of human bacterial infections, the overuse of antibiotic drugs has led to the variation of bacteria, breeding countless new "multi-drug resistant bacteria". Therefore, the research and development of non-antibiotic antibacterial materials with low toxicity, high potency and high timeliness is one of the important current topics.
[0003] Inorganic antibacterial materials are a type of functional materials with the functions of killing and inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria. It has been proven that Cu3N nanoparticles can bind copper ions to the enzymes inside microbial cells, especially those containing sulfhydryl groups (-SH). Sulfhydryl groups are key parts of the active centers of many enzymes, and the binding of copper ions to them will cause the enzymes to become inactivated, thereby interfering with the cell's metabolic processes, such as energy generation and substance synthesis. Copper ions can catalyze the Fenton reaction, converting hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) into highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (·OH). These free radicals will attack DNA, proteins and lipids inside the cell, causing oxidative damage and ultimately leading to cell death. Therefore, it has significant antibacterial and bacteriostatic abilities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and its antibacterial method is diverse, and the process is different from other metal oxides. This is also the reason why antibacterial materials with Cu3N as the core component have attracted great interest. However, pure Cu3N nanoparticles have disadvantages such as easy aggregation and difficult recovery. In order to overcome such problems and endow metal particles with better dispersibility, antibacterial properties and recyclability, a certain carrier is usually required during the formation of Cu3N nanoparticles.
[0004] As important food cash crops in China, the annual output of by-products such as straw from crops like corn has exceeded 800 million tons. At present, the utilization of straw resources in rural areas still has significant limitations: except for a small amount used as domestic fuel, feed processing or industrial fermentation raw materials, more than 70% of the straw is still disposed of by open-air burning or natural stacking. This extensive disposal not only causes serious air pollution and health hazards, but also leads to a huge waste of renewable biomass resources.
[0005] Currently, there is no report related to the technical solution of the present invention. Summary of the Invention
[0006] Based on the phase transition characteristics of the UCST-type polymer, poly-N-(2-aminoethyl)-acrylamide (PNAEAM), the present invention provides a preparation method of a temperature-responsive cellulose-based antibacterial material, namely a preparation method of poly-N-(2-aminoethyl)-acrylamide / nano-Cu3N modified regenerated cellulose sponge; Cu3N nanoparticles can kill bacteria in water, and the porous structure of the regenerated cellulose sponge is conducive to the passage of water flow. The present invention provides an economical and effective way for the efficient purification of water; moreover, agricultural waste straw, which is rich in resources but has not been deeply developed, is selected as the raw material, and Cu3N nanoparticles are immobilized by a simple chemical precipitation method, and an antibacterial sponge product is prepared by reaction, further expanding the application field of agricultural waste straw, making this green and renewable material of straw be utilized with high added value, and laying a theoretical and new technology foundation for the diversified high-value expansion of agricultural waste straw.
[0007] The object of the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solutions: (1) Under a nitrogen atmosphere and ice-water bath conditions, 3-aminopropionamide and ice water are mixed, then ice ether and a 1-3 mol / L K2CO3 solution are added. After stirring and mixing evenly, an ice ether solution of acryloyl chloride is added. After reacting for 3-5 h, the pH of the reaction product is adjusted to 1-3, washed with ether 3-5 times, the aqueous phases are collected and combined, and the pH value is adjusted to neutral. After freeze-drying, the dried product is dissolved in an ethanol-methanol mixed solution, and solid-liquid separation is carried out. The liquid is concentrated by rotary evaporation and recrystallized, and the crystallized product is dried to obtain N-(2-aminoethyl)-acrylamide; The mass ratio of the 3-aminopropionamide to acryloyl chloride is 1-1.5:1 (g:mL), the volume-mass ratio of the K2CO3 solution to 3-aminopropionamide is 3-5.5:1 (mL:g), and the ethanol-methanol mixed solution is prepared by mixing ethanol and methanol at a volume ratio of 3-5:1. (2) After peeling and grinding and screening the dried straw, it is extracted with a benzene-alcohol-dichloromethane mixed solution for defatting and air-dried, and then subjected to delignification and hemicellulose treatment with sodium perchlorate and sodium chlorate. The pulp is washed with water until neutral, filtered, and the filter residue is dried to obtain cellulose powder; the cellulose powder, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and LiCl are mixed and reacted to prepare a cellulose solution. The cellulose solution is regenerated by adding water under a high-speed disperser, filtered and washed, resuspended and transferred to a mold for freeze-drying to obtain a regenerated nano-cellulose sponge; In the benzene-alcohol-dichloromethane mixed solution, the volume ratio of benzene, anhydrous ethanol, and dichloromethane is 2-5:1-2:1-3; the mass ratio of defatted straw to sodium perchlorate is 1:1; the mass-volume ratio of defatted straw to sodium chlorate is 1-1.5:1 (g:mL); the mass ratio of cellulose powder to N,N-dimethylacetamide is 1:20-30; the mass ratio of cellulose powder to LiCl is 2:1; (3) Heat 5 - 15 mL of octadecylamine to 250 - 300 °C, then add 0.2 - 0.4 g of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O powder. After the color of the mixture changes from orange to tan, cool it and separate the solid from the liquid. Wash the solid 4 - 6 times with absolute ethanol, and then wash it 2 - 4 times with a cyclohexane - ethanol mixture (cyclohexane:ethanol = 1:5) to obtain nano - Cu3N; (4) Mix the regenerated nano - cellulose sponge, N-(2 - aminoethyl) - acrylamide, and initiator, and react at 45 - 70 °C for 4 - 12 h. Then, wash the sponge with deionized water for 36 - 48 h and freeze - dry it to obtain the modified cellulose sponge. Immerse the modified cellulose sponge in the nano - Cu3N dispersion liquid, and dry it to obtain the poly N-(2 - aminoethyl) - acrylamide / nano - Cu3N modified regenerated cellulose sponge; The addition amount of N-(2 - aminoethyl) - acrylamide is 0.5 - 2.0% of the mass of the regenerated nano - cellulose sponge; the mass ratio of N-(2 - aminoethyl) - acrylamide to the initiator is 30:1 - 50:1, and the mass ratio of the modified cellulose sponge to nano - Cu3N is 1:1 - 3.
[0008] Another object of the present invention is to apply the PNAEAM / nano - Cu3N modified regenerated cellulose sponge prepared by the above method to the removal of bacteria in water bodies.
[0009] As one of the plant raw materials, agricultural waste straw contains abundant carbohydrates in its chemical composition analysis. Both of them have many oxygen - containing functional groups such as hydroxyl groups in their macromolecules, which lays a good chemical material foundation for the immobilization of nanoparticles. In addition, agricultural waste straw contains more parenchyma cells. The parenchyma cells are composed of only one primary wall. The microfibrils formed by the co - action of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces of low - molecular - weight cellulose molecular chains are arranged disorderly in this cell wall and have fewer crystals. Compared with the fiber - cell cellulose with large molecular weight, high crystallinity, small specific surface area, and compact texture, low - molecular - weight cellulose has the advantages of being soft and plastic, high reaction accessibility, etc., and is more suitable for functional development and research. The cellulose sponge formed after dissolution, regeneration, and cold - dry molding with a mold has a porous structure. These channels are arranged orderly and connected together. This special structure facilitates the penetration and transportation of liquid molecules inside it. This characteristic provides an excellent place for the immobilization of metal nanoparticles, and at the same time provides a greater possibility and convenience for the full contact and reaction of bacteria and copper nitride particles.
[0010] Beneficial effects of the present invention: Using the regenerated cellulose sponge prepared from agricultural waste straw as a carrier, nano-copper nitride particles are co-mixed and immobilized by a simple precipitation modification method, and then the porous structure of the carrier is used to achieve filtration, sterilization and water purification. The antibacterial material is composed of modified regenerated cellulose and nano-copper nitride, which is more concise and energy-saving than traditional antibacterial materials. It is a new type of green and environmentally friendly functional material that is currently the mainstream development and can be applied to the field of water purification; the realization of this sponge filter column provides a feasible solution for the high-value utilization of agricultural waste straw and also lays a certain preliminary foundation for the functional development of agricultural waste straw.
