Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of printing and dyeing technology, in particular to a short process printing technology for polyester-cotton blended fabric. BACKGROUND

[0002] Due to the difference in physical and chemical properties of polyester and cotton fibers, the dyeing and printing performance of polyester-cotton blended fabric is different, and it is important to choose a suitable printing method. At present, the printing methods of polyester-cotton blended fabric are divided into two categories: pigment printing and dye printing. Pigment printing is to adhere pigments to the surface of the fabric through adhesives, resulting in poor hand feeling. The prior art generally uses disperse / reactive dye printing and disperse / reduction dye printing to dye polyester-cotton blended fabric, but the post-processing of the two methods is complicated, the water consumption is large, the sewage treatment pressure is large, and further improvement is needed.

[0003] One of the ways to solve the problem is to use reactive disperse dyes for printing. Reactive disperse dyes refer to disperse dyes with active groups that can form chemical bonds with fibers. Such dye molecules contain a temporarily soluble anionic water-soluble group, which allows them to be water-soluble and dispersed and to be dyed on cotton fibers. Then it can be converted to a non-ionic under certain conditions, and then it can be dyed on polyester like disperse dyes. Using reactive disperse dyes for polyester-cotton printing can shorten the process flow, but there are still problems such as insufficient dyeing rate on polyester, poor clarity of printed patterns, and cotton staining.

[0004] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application provides a short process printing technology for polyester-cotton blended fabric, which aims to reduce the printing process and time of polyester-cotton blended fabric, improve the clarity, apparent color depth and color fastness of printing, and improve the problem of cotton staining.

[0006] The present application is implemented as follows:

[0007] A short process printing technology for polyester-cotton blended fabric, comprising the following steps:

[0008] (1) preparing printing color paste; the printing color paste comprises the following components in mass percentage: 1-5% reactive disperse dye, 1-5% alkali agent, 0.8-1.2% resist salt S, 3-7% urea, 60% 75% paste, and the balance is water;

[0009] The reactive disperse dye has the following formula I molecular structure:

[0010]

[0011] In the formula, R1 and R2 are independently selected from H or Br; Ar is R3 is H or CH3; R4 is H or NHCOCH3; R5 is CH2CH(OH)CH2Cl or CH2CH(OH)CH2Br; R6 is alkyl with carbon number of 1-4, C a H 2a CN, C b H 2b X, CH2CH(OH)CH2Cl or CH2CH(OH)CH2Br, a, b are independently any integer from 1 to 4, X is Br or Cl;

[0012] (2) printing by screen printing;

[0013] (3) baking;

[0014] (4) steaming with alcohol vapor;

[0015] (5) washing;

[0016] (6) drying.

[0017] The present application adopts active disperse dye to print polyester-cotton blended fabric, and adopts screen printing to combine paste and printing into one step, thus simplifying the process flow. Further, the present application adopts alcohol vapor to improve the fixation efficiency of the active disperse dye, thus simplifying the washing step, greatly simplifying the process flow, reducing water consumption and wastewater discharge. Specifically, the active disperse dye designed and developed by the present application has double active groups, including hydroxyethyl sulfone sulfate group and CH2CH(OH)CH2X (X is Br or Cl). The hydroxyethyl sulfone sulfate group can be decomposed into ethyl sulfone under alkaline conditions, and can be chemically bonded with the hydroxyl group on the cotton fiber, thus being fixed on the cotton fiber. The water solubility of the decomposed molecule is reduced, thus increasing the affinity to polyester fiber and facilitating diffusion into the interior of the polyester fiber. CH2CH(OH)CH2X can be removed as HX and converted into epoxy group under alkaline conditions. The epoxy group can be crosslinked with alcohol hydroxyl group during steaming with alcohol vapor, thus increasing the adhesion of the dye on the surface of the textile through crosslinking. Therefore, the active disperse dye provided by the present application is used in combination with alcohol vapor for steaming, which can shorten the printing process flow, improve the dyeing of the dye, thus improving the printing efficiency, and improving the color depth and color fastness of the printing.

[0149]

[0150] The maximum absorption wavelength of dye 6 is 118nm, which is yellow, and the melting point is 117℃.

[0151] The preparation method of dye 6 comprises the following steps:

[0152] (1) Preparation of diazonium component: aniline is dispersed in water, cooled to 0-5℃, then concentrated hydrochloric acid is added, and stirred for 20min, then 30wt% sodium nitrite aqueous solution is added dropwise, and the dropwise addition is completed in 30min, then the solution is stirred for 1h for diazotization reaction, and finally sulfamic acid is added and stirred for 20min to eliminate excess nitrous acid, to obtain the diazonium component; wherein the molar ratio of aniline, sodium nitrite and hydrogen chloride in hydrochloric acid is 1:1.1:3;

[0153] (2) The same as Example 3;

[0154] (3) The same as Example 3.

[0157] The differences from Example 3 are as follows:

[0158] (1) The printing paste formula comprises the following components by mass percentage: 3% active disperse dye (dye 2 of Example 3), 2.8% sodium bicarbonate, 1% resist salt S, 5% urea, 2% ethylene glycol, 68% composite paste (same as Example 3), and the balance is water.

[0159] (2) Instead of alcohol steaming, the printing fabric is steamed by conventional steaming, and the specific steaming steps are as follows: the temperature is 102°C, the time is 10 min, and the steam flow is 1.5 t / h.

[0160] Comparative Example 3

[0161] The differences from Example 3 are as follows:

[0162] (1) The printing paste formula comprises the following components by mass percentage: 3% active disperse dye (dye 6 of Comparative Example 1), 2.8% sodium bicarbonate, 1% resist salt S, 5% urea, 2% ethylene glycol, 68% composite paste (same as Example 3), and the balance is water.

[0163] (2) Instead of alcohol steaming, the printing fabric is steamed by conventional steaming, and the specific steaming steps are as follows: the temperature is 102°C, the time is 10 min, and the steam flow is 1.5 t / h.

[0164] Test Example 1: Paste removal rate

[0165] The mass of the polyester-cotton blended fabric before printing, after printing (including printing and drying), and after post-treatment (including baking, steaming, washing, and drying) is tested, corresponding to m1, m2, and m3, respectively. Each test must be conducted after the corresponding process is completed and the fabric is left to stand for 24 h under standard temperature and humidity. The paste removal rate is calculated as (m2-m3) / (m2-m1) x 100%, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0166] Test Example 2: Printing clarity

[0167] Two groups of straight lines were printed on the polyester-cotton blended fabric, each group consisting of three parallel straight lines, one group being thin lines with length x width = 10 cm x 100 pm, and the other group being thick lines with length x width = 10 cm x 1000 pm. The fineness of the lines was tested under a microscope, with one point on each 1 cm interval of each straight line being tested for line width, and a total of 30 points for each group of lines, and finally the average width and coefficient of variation (coefficient of variation = sample standard deviation ÷ average) of each group of lines were calculated, with the results shown in Table 1.

[0168] Table 1

[0169]

[0170] The paste removal rate refers to the ease of removal of the paste from the fabric during the post-printing process. The paste removal rate directly affects the printing effect and the hand feeling of the fabric. If the paste removal rate is too low, the paste is difficult to remove from the fabric, which can result in unclear printing, and even affect the air permeability and comfort of the fabric. Therefore, it is crucial to control the paste removal rate. In the present application, the average width and coefficient of variation of the lines are used to evaluate the clarity of the printed pattern. The greater the deviation of the average width from 100 pm and / or 1000 pm, the greater the degree of colorant penetration. The greater the coefficient of variation, the greater the degree of numerical dispersion, i.e. the worse the clarity of the pattern outline. In Example 1 and Example 2 of the present application, sodium alginate paste and composite paste containing γ-polyglutamic acid are used respectively, and there is a significant difference in paste removal rate and printing clarity between the two. Since γ-polyglutamic acid is added to the paste in Example 2, it has a higher paste removal rate and printing clarity. The reason is that γ-polyglutamic acid has a higher water retention capacity, reducing the penetration of the colorant. In addition, the addition of γ-polyglutamic acid can effectively improve the thixotropy of the paste, so that it has better thixotropy under the action of shear force, thereby transferring to the fabric through the screen. The composite paste in Examples 2, 7 and 8 contains different proportions of γ-polyglutamic acid. From the results, it can be seen that as the content of γ-polyglutamic acid increases, the paste removal rate is higher, but the printing clarity first increases and then decreases. The reason is that γ-polyglutamic acid has stronger hydrophilicity, making it easier to remove. Although the water absorption rate of γ-polyglutamic acid is higher than that of sodium alginate, it does not have a sugar ring rigid structure, so its viscosity is lower than that of sodium alginate. Therefore, if the content is too high, it will cause the viscosity of the colorant to decrease too much, which will even exacerbate the penetration. The dye 2 used in Example 3 can produce two epoxy groups under the action of alkali and heat, causing excessive crosslinking during baking and alcohol steaming, and even bonding with the paste, resulting in a decrease in paste removal rate.

[0171] Test Example 3 Apparent Color Depth

[0172] The apparent color depth K / S value of the printed fabric was tested using a Datacolor 650 tester.

[0173] Test Example 4 Color Fastness

[0174] The soaping fastness of the dyed fabric was tested according to GB / T 3921-2008 Textiles- Colour fastness to soaping; the rubbing fastness of the dyed fabric was tested according to GB / T 3920-2008 Textiles- Colour fastness to rubbing; the fastness to sunlight of the dye was tested according to GB / T 8427-2008 Textiles- Colour fastness to artificial light: xenon arc.

[0175] Table 2

[0176]

[0177]

[0178] From the results in the table, it can be seen that the printing obtained by the method provided in the application has good color depth K / S value and color fastness. Comparative Example 1 has lower dyeing rate of the dye due to the absence of hydroxyethyl sulfone sulfate group in the dye, which reduces the reactivity of the dye with cotton fibers, thus the K / S value is lower; but the color fastness is higher because the dye is attached to the surface of the fabric through chemical bonding or cross-linking. Comparative Example 2 does not use alcohol steaming, but adds alcohol substances to the color paste and uses the conventional steaming method, and the K / S value of the printing is lower than that of Example 3, because the alcohol substances are in contact with the color paste in the steaming mode, which improves the contact degree and reactivity of the two, thus facilitating the polymerization reaction. The dye of Comparative Example 3 does not contain hydroxyethyl sulfone sulfate group and does not undergo alcohol steaming, thus the K / S value is the worst.

[0179] Example 2 has greater apparent color depth of the printing due to the addition of polyglutamic acid in the paste of Example 1, because the v-polyglutamic acid improves the thixotropy of the paste and the affinity with the polyester fibers, thus it is better to attach to the surface of the blended fabric through the screen mesh, but the color fastness is not much different because the dyes of the two are the same. Example 3 has more cross-linking groups of the reactive disperse dye than Example 1, but does not significantly improve the color fastness of the printing, but rather makes the K / S value of the printing decrease, and the possible reason is that the alkyl butyl group is used instead of -CH2CHOHCH2Cl, which improves the molar absorption coefficient of the dye. Example 4 uses red dye 3, and although the content of the dye in the color paste is lower, a higher K / S value is still obtained. Example 5 uses orange dye 4, and because the content of the dye in the color paste is higher, the K / S value is also higher. The K / S values of Example 7 and Example 8 are both lower than Example 2 because the content of the γ-polyglutamic acid in the paste of Example 7 is lower and the content of the γ-polyglutamic acid in the paste of Example 8 is higher, because too high γ-polyglutamic acid makes the penetration of the color paste worse, and too low γ-polyglutamic acid makes the permeability of the color paste decrease, both of which are not conducive to the retention of the color paste on the surface of the fabric. Example 9 does not add triethylamine during alcohol steaming, and triethylamine as a catalyst reduces the reactivity of the epoxy group with alcohol, thus the K / S value and the color fastness decrease.
