Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dried flower color preservation, and in particular to a dried flower material color preservation composition and a method for preparing a dried flower work. Background Art
[0002] Dried flowers, a decorative material that combines artistic value with natural beauty, have seen increasing market demand in recent years. However, color preservation has been a bottleneck in the industry's development. While traditional preservation methods can maintain color to a certain extent, their long-term effectiveness is unsatisfactory, making it difficult to meet market demand for high-quality dried flower products. Existing methods for preserving dried flower color primarily include the following: Physical color preservation methods maintain the color of flowers by controlling external conditions such as temperature, humidity, and light. For example, infrared light is used to irradiate flowers to remove moisture and kill surface microorganisms, thereby protecting color and preventing decay. Chemical color preservation methods utilize chemicals that react with flower pigments to preserve or alter their structure. For example, copper sulfate and acetic acid are used to treat leaf material to replace magnesium ions in chlorophyll with copper ions, preserving the green color. Citric acid and tartaric acid are used to adjust the pH value of the flower material to preserve the color of red flowers containing anthocyanins. Artistic color preservation methods use dyes to color and preserve the flower material. This method is suitable for woody plant materials with high fiber content, but requires bleaching the material first. Preservation with resin or UV glue: Seal the dried flowers with resin or UV glue to isolate them from the outside world and preserve their color and shape. Preserving with resin requires careful handling, while preserving with UV glue requires exposure to ultraviolet light to solidify the flowers.
[0003] It can be seen that existing methods for preserving the color of dried flowers often fail to effectively maintain their vibrant color over long periods of time. While physical color preservation methods can slow fading to a certain extent, their effectiveness is limited. Chemical color preservation methods require further expansion and improvement in the types and effectiveness of the agents used. Artistic color preservation methods are relatively complex and have limited applicability. While resin or UV glue methods can effectively preserve color and shape, they are costly and inconvenient to use. Summary of the Invention
[0004] As described in the prior art, one of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a color preservation composition for dried flower materials, which helps to maintain the vividness and stability of the color of dried flowers.
[0005] A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing dried flower works, wherein the dried flowers in the dried flower works produced by the method appear three-dimensional.
[0006] One of the purposes of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solution: The color preservation composition for dried flower materials comprises the following raw materials: citric acid, L-cysteine, calcium chloride, konjac gum and magnesium chloride.
[0007] Furthermore, the following raw materials are included according to mass volume calculation: 6-13 g / L of citric acid, 1-3 g / L of L-cysteine, 0.1-0.6 g / L of calcium chloride, 3-10 g / L of konjac gum, and 0.1-0.5 g / L of magnesium chloride.
[0008] Furthermore, calculated by mass volume, the following raw materials are included: 10 g / L citric acid, 1.5 g / L L-cysteine, 0.3 g / L calcium chloride, 6 g / L konjac gum, and 0.2 g / L magnesium chloride.
[0009] Furthermore, the dried flower material is one of water lily dried flower material, crape myrtle dried flower material, and saffron dried flower material.
[0010] The second object of the present invention is achieved by adopting the following technical solution: The method for preparing a color preservation composition for dried flower materials comprises the following steps: S1. Prepare the dried flower material color preservation composition according to the formula, and soak the dried flower material in the dried flower material color preservation composition at room temperature for 1.5 hours; S2, drying the soaked dried flower material using a conventional embossing method to obtain a dried dried flower material; S3. Fix the canvas to the bracket, and then stick the dried flower material to the canvas on both sides of the canvas. After completion, the dried flower work is obtained.
[0011] Furthermore, in step S3, after fixing the canvas to the bracket, the outer frame line of the dried flower work is outlined on the brocade with a pencil, and then the outer frame line on the brocade is embroidered using the double-sided embroidery needle method in Suzhou embroidery, and then the dried dried flower material is pasted into the brocade on both sides of the brocade.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The color preservation composition of dried flower materials provided by the present invention has antioxidant properties and can delay the oxidation of pigments in dried flowers, thereby helping to maintain the bright color. L-cysteine is one of the synthetic precursors of glutathione, and glutathione is an important natural antioxidant in the body that can protect cells from oxidative stress and free radical damage. In dried flowers, it can cooperate with citric acid through this antioxidant mechanism to slow down the oxidation and fading of pigments; calcium chloride can absorb moisture in the air, prevent dried flowers from getting damp, and reduce the phenomenon of dried flowers becoming moldy and blackened due to humidity changes, thereby facilitating the color preservation of dried flowers. Preservation: Konjac gum has film-forming properties and can form a protective film on the surface of dried flowers. This protective film can isolate adverse factors such as external moisture, air, and light, creating a relatively stable internal environment for the dried flowers, which helps to maintain the long-term color, reduce the impact of the external environment (such as light, humidity, etc.) on the color of the dried flowers, and help maintain the stability of the color of the dried flowers; the dried flower material color preservation composition provided by the present invention, citric acid has antioxidant properties, can delay the oxidation of pigments in the dried flowers, thereby helping to maintain the bright color. This comprehensive protective effect is expected to significantly extend the preservation time of the dried flower color.
[0013] (2) The method for making a dried flower work provided by the present invention comprises fixing a canvas to a bracket, and then pasting the dried flower material onto the canvas on both sides of the canvas. After completion, the dried flower work is obtained. The dried flowers in the dried flower work made by this method appear three-dimensional. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
