Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of textile dyeing and finishing technology, and specifically relates to a preparation process for wrinkle-resistant, machine-washable dyed wool fabric. Background Technology

[0002] Wool fibers naturally possess excellent temperature and humidity regulation properties. Relying on the internal structure of the fiber and the air storage effect of the scale layer, it can achieve an automatic temperature control effect of being warm in winter and cool in summer. It has a high-end feel and outstanding wearing comfort, and has long been the core raw material for high-end suits, uniforms, and formal wear fabrics, which are highly favored by consumers. However, the unique serrated surface structure of wool itself brings unavoidable shortcomings: when wool gets wet, the scales interlock, slip and entangle, making it very easy to shrink and felt, and the fabric will clump and deform; during daily wear and friction, the fiber hairs fall out and entangle to form fuzz balls, and the fabric has poor anti-pilling performance; in addition, the exposed hard scales come into direct contact with the skin, which can cause skin irritation and itching; at the same time, the felting and shrinking characteristics mean that wool fabrics can only be dry cleaned, which is difficult to handle in daily life and makes it difficult to meet the needs of consumers in today's fast-paced life for convenient washing and care.

[0003] To address the aforementioned pain points of wool fabrics, the textile industry has conducted extensive research. CN111074405A discloses a manufacturing process for machine-washable compact Siro-spun wool suit fabric. This process addresses the issues of traditional wool suit fabrics being unwashable and prone to felting and pilling, constructing a complete end-to-end manufacturing process for blended elastic suit fabrics. This process involves fiber modification and blending of double-anti-pilling polyester with Australian wool, reducing fuzz through compact Siro-spun core yarn, hydrolyzing wool scales with protease, singeing, and resin setting for multiple protections. The resulting finished product achieves an anti-pilling level of 3-4, effectively resolving pilling issues. This technology solves the problem of shrinkage during machine washing of pure wool. The entire process covers the entire chain from spinning and weaving to finishing, with clearly defined process parameter ranges, enabling stable mass production of woven wool suit fabrics. It uses double-resistant polyester as raw material. The working principle of polyester is to reduce the fiber strength by reducing the molecular weight and copolymerization modification, which indirectly reduces the service life of the fabric. Secondly, the wool fabric is treated with a protease mixed solution, which causes a certain amount of weight loss in the wool fibers. Blended fabrics may have mixing ratio deviations. If the process parameters are not strictly controlled, the strength loss may exceed the standard, affecting the durability of the fabric.

[0004] CN113718400A discloses a wool blend woven right-hand twill jacquard fabric and its weaving process. In this process, the warp yarn is a compact Siro-spun yarn of cationic polyester, Yacel, and wool blend, and the weft yarn is a ring-spun yarn of bamboo fiber and acrylic fiber. The fabric has a 2-up 2-down right-hand twill jacquard structure. The entire process covers four major weaving stages: warping, sizing, differentiated heddle and reed threading, and multi-arm air-jet weaving. It is equipped with a dedicated sizing formula and control logic for loom angle, tension, and speed. By combining the advantages of multiple fibers, the fabric has a comfortable hand feel and is suitable for dark dyeing, making it suitable for high-end uniforms. However, the three types of fibers in the warp yarn are blended, and there are significant differences in the types of dyes, dyeing temperatures, and dyeing pH. This can lead to dye competition, damage to the wool, and a high risk of color unevenness, making color control difficult.

[0005] CN121065940A discloses a method for preparing a non-itchy wool fabric. After mercerizing the wool fibers, liquid ammonia finishing is used to further damage and passivate the wool scales, completely eliminating the itching sensation caused by the wool fibers. Wool fabric prepared using this method achieves an itching level of 5 in an itching test, while fabrics not treated with liquid ammonia achieve a lower level. Simultaneously, this method also imparts softness to the wool fabric, making it more comfortable to wear while maintaining its excellent performance, thus expanding the application range of wool fabrics in areas such as underwear. However, this patent only addresses the itching problem of wool. After descaling the wool and then applying resin treatment, a resin coating forms on the fiber surface. This coating blocks the inherent moisture absorption, breathability, and self-regulating temperature properties of the wool fibers, damaging the original comfort performance of the wool.

[0006] Although existing technologies have optimized wool fabrics through blending, it is still difficult to simultaneously solve multiple industry pain points such as shrinkage and felting, pilling, itching against the skin, poor wrinkle resistance, and inability to be machine washed.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) The preparation process of the wrinkle-resistant machine-washable yarn-dyed wool fabric of the present invention uses wool, polyester and viscose as blended raw materials. The performance advantages of each fiber complement each other. Wool gives the fabric a natural winter-warm and summer-cool, breathable and antibacterial, warm and soft texture; polyester fiber effectively improves the fabric’s stiffness and wrinkle-resistant properties; viscose fiber further weakens the inherent scaly itching sensation of wool and greatly improves the fabric’s skin-friendly comfort; at the same time, the use of solution-dyed fibers avoids the damage to wool fibers caused by traditional dyeing and finishing processes and eliminates the discharge of dyeing wastewater.

[0022] (2) The spinning process of this invention uses cotton spinning equipment and cotton spinning process flow, which has strong adaptability, short production process, high output and low production cost; the compact Siro spinning process is combined with exclusive twist parameters to effectively reduce yarn hairiness and optimize yarn dryness uniformity, so that the ply yarn structure is compact, smooth and flat, and solves the problem of friction pilling of wool fabric from the root, making the fabric durable and anti-pilling.

[0023] (3) This invention uses the synergistic effect of liquid ammonia modification, mechanical pre-shrinking and high-temperature steaming and setting processes. Through the low-tension processing of the liquid ammonia knitting machine, the small molecules of liquid ammonia penetrate the wool scales and go deep into the keratin, reshaping the molecular structure of wool fibers and improving the inherent defects of wool shrinking, felting and deformation when it comes into contact with water. Combined with the pre-shrinking pressure control of warp shrinkage and the steam pressure control of weft setting, and the high-temperature steaming and setting, the fabric dimensional stability and wrinkle resistance performance are greatly improved, and the wool fabric can be machine washed and is easy to care for.

[0034] Comparative Example 4 The difference between Comparative Example 4 and Example 1 is that the steaming process is omitted, while the remaining processes and raw materials are the same as in Example 1.

[0035] The wrinkle-resistant, machine-washable yarn-dyed wool fabrics obtained in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to performance testing. First, the warp and weft yarns of the fibers in the products obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 were characterized using an optical microscope to obtain... Figure 1 In the figure, from left to right and top to bottom, are longitudinal optical micrographs of the warp yarn of Example 1, the weft yarn of Example 1, the warp yarn of Comparative Example 1, and the weft yarn of Comparative Example 1, respectively. Individual fibers of the 80S wool warp and weft yarns in Comparative Example 2 were separated and characterized using an optical microscope to obtain... Figure 2 The figures, from left to right, show longitudinal optical micrographs of the warp and weft yarns; the fibers at the pilling and fuzzing areas of the product obtained in Comparative Example 3 were characterized using an optical microscope, yielding... Figure 3 The images show longitudinal optical micrographs of different areas of fuzzing and pilling.

[0036] Secondly, two 40*40cm fabric samples were used for the experiment. The wrinkle resistance test method followed GB / T 13769-2009, involving 10 and 30 washes at 5N, rated under the same light source. The dimensional stability test method followed GB / T 8629-2017 and GB / T 8630-2013, involving washing at 6N, hanging to dry, and calculating the dimensional change rate. The pilling test method followed GB / T 4802.1-2008. For the fuzz test, the fabric was observed from 30° under a D65 standard light source, referring to the actual standard sample card. The hand feel was assessed by conditioned in a constant temperature chamber (20±2℃, RH 65%±3%) for 4 hours, and judged by three people. The luster and color were rated visually under a D65 standard light source. All results are summarized in Table 1 below. A comparison of the products in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the left side is a product image of Comparative Example 1, and the right side is a product image of Example 1; comparison images of the products obtained in Examples 1-3 after washing are shown below. Figures 5-7 As shown, Figure 5 In the image, the left side shows a product that has been washed 10 times, and the right side shows a product that has been washed 30 times. Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the image, the left side shows a product that has been washed 30 times, and the right side shows a product that has been washed 10 times.

[0037] Table 1. Results of anti-wrinkle performance testing for the products in the examples and comparative examples.

[0038] Combining Table 1 and Figures 1-7 It can be seen that, compared with Example 1, Comparative Example 1 did not undergo liquid ammonia treatment, from Figure 1The longitudinal optical micrographs show that the wool scales are clearer than those obtained with the liquid ammonia process, while the viscose fibers are shriveled, have a dry feel, lack luster, and exhibit reduced dimensional stability and wrinkle resistance. This demonstrates that liquid ammonia treatment can effectively improve the feel, luster, dimensional stability, and wrinkle resistance of wool fabrics.

[0039] Compared with Example 1, Comparative Example 2 used ordinary shrink-resistant wool 80S. Figure 2 From the longitudinal optical micrograph, it is coarser and stiffer than the 100S mercerized anti-shrinkage bleached merino wool from Australia, with more obvious scales, pilling, and slightly less luster. It feels itchy against the skin. After 30 washes, the fabric is slightly heavier, which proves that the better the scale layer treatment, the finer the wool and the weaker the itchy feeling.

[0040] Compared with Example 1, Comparative Example 3 reduced the wool content and increased the viscose and polyester content. The results showed that with increased viscose, the hand feel became softer and less elastic, and the pilling and fuzzing properties deteriorated. Figure 3 Longitudinal optical micrographs show that the fibers in the napped areas are mostly viscose and polyester. The wrinkle resistance, dimensional stability, and color after washing are all greatly affected, proving that the product made by using a reasonable ratio of wool, viscose, and polyester has good wrinkle resistance and anti-pilling properties. However, when the content of viscose and polyester increases, the napping and pilling properties become significantly worse.

[0041] Compared with Example 1, Comparative Example 4 did not undergo the steaming process, and its hand elasticity was significantly reduced, the hand felt was thinner, and the dimensional stability after washing was worse, proving that steaming has the effect of improving the hand feel and dimensional stability of wool fabrics.
