Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cloud fleece technology, specifically to a method for preparing recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud fleece. Background Technology
[0002] As the global "dual carbon" goal is advanced, the textile industry is accelerating its transformation towards green and low-carbon practices. Recycled polyester has become a core alternative raw material for the industry because it can effectively save petroleum resources and reduce waste pollution.
[0003] Furthermore, with increasing health awareness, the antibacterial properties of textiles, which come into close contact with the human body, are receiving more and more attention. In daily use, fleece fabrics, due to their loose fiber structure and large surface area, easily absorb sweat, dander, and other organic matter, providing a breeding ground for bacteria (such as Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli), fungi, and other microorganisms. This can lead to odors, mildew, and even skin allergies and infections, especially in humid or sweaty environments. Fleece, with its lightweight, warmth, and softness, is widely used in home textiles, clothing linings, and infant products. However, without effective antibacterial properties, its lifespan is shortened, and the user experience and health safety are directly affected. Therefore, developing antibacterial fleece that combines the excellent performance of fleece with reliable antibacterial capabilities has become an urgent market demand. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud fleece, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud wool, wherein the recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud wool is obtained by extruding a novel antibacterial agent and recycled polyester chips into a screw extruder to obtain a mixed masterbatch, and then by wet spinning.
[0006] The novel antibacterial agent is prepared by growing nano-titanium dioxide in situ on the surface of modified tourmaline to obtain a nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier, and then reacting it with terephthalaldehyde to load a Schiff base structure.
[0007] Furthermore, the modified tourmaline is prepared by modifying tourmaline with KH550 silane coupling agent.
[0008] Furthermore, the tourmaline is either iron tourmaline or lithium tourmaline.
[0009] Furthermore, a method for preparing recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud-like fleece includes the following preparation steps:
[0010] (1) Mix activated tourmaline and anhydrous ethanol at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:2, add 0.01 to 0.05 times the mass of activated tourmaline KH550, add ammonia dropwise under stirring until the pH is 9 to 10, react at 50 to 60°C for 4 hours, centrifuge, wash, and vacuum dry at 60°C for 4 to 6 hours to obtain modified tourmaline;
[0011] (2) The modified tourmaline and titanium dioxide sol were mixed at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:10~15, ultrasonically dispersed for 30 min, stirred at room temperature for 1~2 h, heated in a water bath at 60℃ for 1~1.5 h, centrifuged to separate the solid, washed, dried, and placed in a muffle furnace to calcine at 400℃ for 1.5~3 h to obtain nano titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier;
[0012] (3) Mix nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier, terephthalaldehyde and ethanol, add acetic acid dropwise, adjust the pH to 5~6, heat the reaction in a water bath at 50~60℃ for 1~2h, filter, wash and dry to obtain a new antibacterial agent;
[0013] (4) Mix recycled polyester, novel antibacterial agent and mixed aqueous solution in a mass ratio of 1:0.05~0.10:6~8, stir at 25~30℃ for 30 minutes, and then wet spin through a cloud-spun spinneret to obtain hollow shaped fibers. After shaping, bundling, rapid stretching and three-dimensional crimping, the recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud-spun fibers are heat-set to obtain recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud-spun fibers.
[0014] Furthermore, in step (1), the activated tourmaline is prepared by mixing tourmaline and 1 mol / L hydrochloric acid at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:5, stirring and refluxing at 80°C for 1-2 hours, filtering, washing with deionized water until neutral, adding it to anhydrous ethanol at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:2, sonicating for 30 minutes, and vacuum drying at 60°C for 2-4 hours.
[0015] Further, the preparation method of titanium dioxide sol in step (2) is as follows: 1) using anhydrous ethanol as solvent, glacial acetic acid as catalyst, tetrabutyl titanate as precursor, the mass fraction of tetrabutyl titanate in the solution is 20%~35%, mix to form a solution, hydrolyze at 50~60℃ for 6h, then age for 12h, and extract the solvent under reduced pressure at 60~80℃ to obtain nano titanium dioxide dry gel; 2) use deionized water to prepare the above nano titanium dioxide dry gel into nano titanium dioxide sol with a concentration of 20~50wt%.
[0016] Furthermore, in step (3), the mass ratio of nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier, terephthalaldehyde and ethanol is 1:0.2~0.6:20~25.
[0017] Furthermore, in step (3), the nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier needs to be placed in 0.1 mol / L dilute hydrochloric acid and ultrasonically activated at 300W for 20~30 min to activate the surface amino groups.
[0018] Furthermore, in step (4), the recycled polyester is obtained by crushing, washing and vacuum drying waste polyethylene terephthalate to obtain polyester fragments with a moisture content of 80 ppm.
[0019] Furthermore, the mixed aqueous solution in step (4) contains 12% N,N-dimethylformamide and 16% sulfuric acid by mass.
[0020] Furthermore, the process parameters for wet spinning in step (4) are as follows: the conveying speed is 0.59~0.61mL / min, the outer diameter of the spinneret hole on the spinneret plate is 1.0~1.3mm, and the inner diameter is 0.6~0.8mm. The spinning solution is spun through the hollow profile on the cloud spinneret plate to obtain hollow profile fibers.
[0021] Furthermore, the heat setting temperature is 150~165℃, and the time is 20~25min.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:
[0023] This invention prepares a novel antibacterial agent and blends it with recycled polyester, then uses wet spinning to produce cloud-like fibers, thereby achieving a long-lasting and highly effective antibacterial effect.
[0024] First, tourmaline is modified with a silane coupling agent to introduce amino groups on its surface, providing active sites for the subsequent preparation of nano-titanium dioxide. Then, the modified tourmaline is added to a titanium dioxide sol, and nano-titanium dioxide is grown in situ on the tourmaline using the sol-gel method to obtain a nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier, forming a tightly bonded core-shell structure, avoiding the shedding problem caused by traditional physical mixing. The silane chains of the amino groups create steric hindrance, inhibiting the aggregation of titanium dioxide particles. Furthermore, the crystal structure of tourmaline can release far-infrared rays and negative ions at room temperature, while nano-titanium dioxide, under visible or ultraviolet light irradiation, can generate reactive oxygen species through photogenerated electron-hole pairs, thus achieving anti-oxidation. The antibacterial effect is enhanced by synergistically combining the far-infrared properties of tourmaline with the local temperature to accelerate the generation of active oxygen, further improving the antibacterial effect. Then, the uncoordinated amino groups on the surface are further activated, reacting with terephthalaldehyde to load Schiff base structures onto the surface of a nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier to prepare a novel antibacterial agent. The Schiff base structure is covalently anchored on the surface of the composite carrier, achieving the immobilization of organic antibacterial components and further improving antibacterial performance. Compared with physical adsorption, it is more wash-resistant and prolongs antibacterial durability. Finally, the novel antibacterial agent is blended with recycled polyester and wet-spun to prepare recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud wool, giving the cloud wool a long-lasting and highly effective antibacterial effect.

[0062] Table 1
[0063]
[0064] Furthermore, after 50 washes, the overall antibacterial performance of Examples 1-5 of this invention against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli reached over 95%, achieving the highest level AAA grade in the Chinese textile antibacterial industry standard.
[0065] A comparison of the experimental data from Example 3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 reveals that this invention first modifies tourmaline with a silane coupling agent, introducing amino groups on its surface to provide active sites for the subsequent preparation of nano-titanium dioxide. Then, the modified tourmaline is added to a titanium dioxide sol, and nano-titanium dioxide is grown in situ on the tourmaline using the sol-gel method to obtain a nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier, forming a tightly bonded core-shell structure, avoiding the shedding problem caused by traditional physical mixing. The silane chains of the amino groups create steric hindrance, inhibiting the aggregation of titanium dioxide particles. Furthermore, the crystal structure of tourmaline can release far-infrared rays and negative ions at room temperature, while nano-titanium dioxide can generate photoelectrons under visible or ultraviolet light irradiation. Hole pairs generate reactive oxygen species to achieve antibacterial effects. Synergistically with the far-infrared radiation of tourmaline, the generation of reactive oxygen species is accelerated by increasing local temperature, further enhancing the antibacterial effect. Then, uncoordinated amino groups on the surface are further activated, reacting with terephthalaldehyde to load Schiff base structures onto the surface of a nano-titanium dioxide / tourmaline composite carrier to prepare a novel antibacterial agent. The Schiff base structure is covalently anchored on the composite carrier surface, achieving the immobilization of organic antibacterial components and further improving antibacterial performance. Compared to physical adsorption, it is more wash-resistant and prolongs antibacterial durability. Finally, the novel antibacterial agent is blended with recycled polyester, and recycled polyester tourmaline antibacterial cloud wool is prepared through wet spinning, giving the cloud wool a long-lasting and highly effective antibacterial effect.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
