Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of goose down processing technology, specifically relating to a water-repellent and oil-resistant goose down and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Goose down, as a natural insulating material, is widely used in high-end clothing and bedding due to its excellent warmth, lightness, and breathability. However, the surface of natural goose down is rich in hydrophilic keratin, which easily absorbs moisture and oily stains from the environment. Once oil stains penetrate, they are difficult to clean thoroughly, and repeated washing can damage the down cluster structure. In addition, water and oil absorption can accelerate the aging of goose down, making it prone to clumping, odors, and other problems, which is detrimental to its marketability.

[0003] In existing technologies, the main method for improving the water and oil repellency of goose down is treatment with fluorocarbon compound finishing agents. While this treatment imparts a certain degree of water and oil repellency to the goose down, it also poses environmental risks (such as persistent pollutants like perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) / perfluorooctane sulfonyl compounds (PFOS)). Therefore, it is essential to develop water and oil repellent finishing agents containing natural ingredients that are highly safe and stable, and exploring their application in the actual production of water and oil repellent goose down is of great significance. Based on the above problems, this invention provides water and oil repellent goose down and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a water-repellent and oil-resistant goose down and its preparation method in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] The present invention achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions: A method for preparing water-repellent and oil-repellent goose down specifically includes the following steps: Step 1: Using degreased, cleaned and dried goose down as raw material, the goose down is oxidized using a compound reagent. After washing and dehydration, oxidized goose down is obtained. The raw materials for preparing the compound reagent include, by weight, 52-60 parts of dilute acetic acid, 20-25 parts of transglutaminase, 10-16 parts of curcumin, and 10-15 parts of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether. Step 2: The oxidized goose down obtained in Step 1 is subjected to plasma pretreatment to obtain pretreated goose down; Step 3: Apply a water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent to the pretreated goose down for padding treatment; wherein, the raw materials for preparing the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent, by weight, include 30-35 parts rice bran wax, 18-24 parts amino-terminated silicone oil, 15-20 parts nano silica aqueous solution, 12-18 parts plant extract, 7-12 parts hydroxypropyl chitosan, 3-5 parts silane coupling agent, and 3-5 parts surfactant; Step 4: After the goose down has been impregnated and padded in Step 3, it is dried to obtain water-repellent and oil-resistant goose down.

[0006] As a further optimization of the present invention, the amount of the composite reagent is 3-8 wt% of goose down.

[0007] As a further optimization of the present invention, in step one, the oxidation treatment specifically involves first mixing transglutaminase, curcumin, and fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether in water, soaking the goose down at 45-60°C for 40-60 minutes, and then adding dilute acetic acid with a mass concentration of 6-15% and continuing to soak for 30-50 minutes, stirring at 5-10 rpm throughout the process; the mass ratio of goose down to water is 1:25-30.

[0008] As a further optimization of the present invention, in step two, the plasma pretreatment is to pretreat the goose down with nitrogen low-temperature plasma, with a power of 45-65W, a pressure of 20-30Pa, a time of 1-3min, and a temperature of 30-40℃.

[0009] As a further optimization of the present invention, the amount of the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent is 4-10 wt% of the goose down.

[0010] As a further optimization of the present invention, in step three, the padding process specifically involves adding a water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent into deionized water, heating and maintaining the temperature to 65-90°C to obtain a water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing liquid, and using this water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing liquid to perform two dips and two padding processes on the goose down, with a bath ratio of 1:20-25 and a padding rate of 65%-80%.

[0011] The bath ratio of 1:20-25 indicates that 1 unit mass of goose down requires 20-25 units of water-repellent and oil-resistant finishing solution (deionized water + water-repellent and oil-resistant finishing agent) for treatment.

[0012] As a further optimization of the present invention, the mass concentration of the nano-silica aqueous solution is 20-25%; The silane coupling agent includes at least one of silane coupling agent KH550 and silane coupling agent KH590.

[0013] As a further optimization of the present invention, the surfactant includes at least one of polyoxyethylene fatty acids and alkyl polysaccharides.

[0014] As a further optimization of the present invention, the plant extract is Lygodium japonicum-corn bran extract. The specific method for obtaining it is as follows: weigh Lygodium japonicum-corn bran powder (i.e., Lygodium japonicum powder and corn bran powder in a mass ratio of 1:1), add it to a methanol solution with a mass concentration of 60-75% at a mass ratio of 1:6-10, heat and reflux for extraction for 2-3 hours, cool and filter with a microporous membrane for storage.

[0015] A water-repellent and oil-resistant goose down is prepared by the above-described method.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention improves the water and oil repellency of the final down product by subjecting it to oxidation and plasma pretreatment before impregnation with a water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent. The water contact angle can reach up to 148.2° and the oil contact angle can reach up to 136.5°, indicating that the final down product prepared by this invention has strong water and oil repellency, making it easy to promote and apply in the market.

[0017] The present invention also found that the compound reagent formulation is particularly critical in the oxidation process, and verified that transglutaminase can only achieve a synergistic effect when combined with curcumin, which can significantly improve the water repellency and oil stain resistance of the final goose down products.

[0018] The water-repellent and oil-resistant finishing agent used in this invention contains Lygodium japonicum-corn bran extract (methanol extract). Experimental results show that Lygodium japonicum-corn bran extract (methanol extract) can significantly improve the water-repellent and oil-resistant properties of goose down.

[0019] This invention also compared the effects of water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agents under different storage conditions on the water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of the final goose down products. It was found that when the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent mixture system was supplemented with Lygodium japonicum-corn bran extract (methanol extract), its thermal stability was improved. In actual production, this beneficial effect can reduce the storage requirements of the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent, and enterprises can save on storage, transportation and other costs.

[0052] Performance testing Experiment 1: The water contact angle (WCA) and oil contact angle (OCA) of the goose down surface in the experimental groups (S1-5), control group (D1-16), and blank group were measured using a German Krüss DSA100 contact angle measuring instrument. The contact angle measurement range was 0~180°, and the measurement accuracy was ±0.1°. The icing test results are recorded in Table 1 below: Table 1. Test Data Recording Table for Water Repellency and Oil Repellency of Goose Down ; Experimental Conclusions: As shown in Table 1, oxidative treatment and plasma pretreatment of goose down before padding with the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent can improve the water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of the final goose down product. The formulation of the composite reagent used in the oxidation process is particularly crucial. This invention verifies the effect of combining transglutaminase with curcumin or quercetin / dihydrocurcumin. Experimental results show that transglutaminase only achieves a synergistic effect when combined with curcumin, significantly improving the WCA and OCA of the final goose down product. A larger contact angle indicates stronger water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of the goose down. This invention also verifies the effect of adding different plant extracts to the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent system on the water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of the final goose down product. Experimental results show that only Lygodium japonicum-corn bran extract (methanol extraction) can significantly improve the water-repellent and oil-repellent properties of goose down.

[0053] Experiment 2: In the padding process, water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agents with different storage conditions than those in the experimental and control groups were used, resulting in the following groups: S(2 / 4)-G (the remaining preparation methods were consistent with those of S2 / 4 group, i.e., except for the difference in the storage conditions of the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent, the remaining operations were consistent with those of S2-G group and S4-G group and S4 group) and D(10-16)-G group (the remaining preparation methods were consistent with those of D(10-16) group, i.e., except for the difference in the storage conditions of the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent, the remaining operations were consistent with those of D10-G group and D10 group, D11-G group and D11 group, D12-G group and D12 group, and so on). The storage conditions for the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agents used in the experimental, control, and blank groups were: 15-20℃, relative humidity 55-65%, and sealed storage away from light for six months. The storage conditions for the water-repellent and oil-resistant finishing agents of the above S(2 / 4)-G group and D(10-16)-G group are: 30-35℃, relative humidity 55-65%, and sealed in the dark for six months.

[0054] Then, the WCA and OCA of the goose down surface of the above experimental groups: S(2 / 4)-G group and control group: D(10-16)-G group were tested using a German Krüss DSA100 contact angle measuring instrument. The contact angle measurement range was 0~180°, and the measurement accuracy was ±0.1°. The test results are recorded in Table 2 below: Table 2. Test Data Recording Table for Water Repellency and Oil Repellency of Goose Down ; Experimental Conclusion: Based on the data analysis in Table 2, it can be seen that the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent prepared by this invention has good thermal stability. After being stored at 30-35℃ for 6 months, the final goose down products still maintain a high level of water-repellent and oil-repellent effect. This indicates that the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent has high thermal stability. In actual production, this beneficial effect can reduce the requirements for storage conditions, allowing companies to save on storage and transportation costs. Further analysis revealed that the extract of Lygodium japonicum and corn bran (methanol extraction) plays a key role in improving the thermal stability of the water-repellent and oil-repellent finishing agent.
