Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sunshade fabric technology, and in particular to an easy-to-clean sunshade fabric, specifically an easy-to-clean sunshade fabric with multiple functions such as oleophobicity, heat insulation, light reflection, and flame retardancy, which is particularly suitable for use in outdoor environments such as cars, tents, and outdoor facilities. Background Technology
[0002] Sunshade fabric, also known as shade cloth, is a functional auxiliary fabric used to block sunlight and UV rays. It is often used in combination with other fabrics to cover items to prevent direct contact with strong light, effectively blocking glare and ultraviolet rays. With the increase in outdoor activities and the development of the automotive industry, sunshade fabric is being used more and more widely in outdoor environments, such as car sunshades, camping tents, and outdoor billboards.
[0003] While the functionality of existing sunshade fabrics is constantly being enhanced, many problems still exist. For example, utility model patent CN215512661U discloses an environmentally friendly sunshade fabric, including a body with a drainage mechanism in the middle. The body includes a base layer, a PA silver coating on top of the base layer, a first flame-retardant layer on top of the PA silver coating, a finishing layer on top of the first flame-retardant layer, a waterproof layer below the base layer, a second flame-retardant layer below the waterproof layer, and a protective layer below the second flame-retardant layer. The aforementioned application, through the drainage mechanism, can easily drain water accumulated in the middle of the body, preventing excessive weight from the central area from causing strain on the sides of the body, thus contributing to its long-term use.
[0004] However, currently available shade fabrics easily accumulate dirt, oil stains, dust, and other contaminants when used in outdoor environments. Due to the complexity of outdoor environments, shade fabrics are often exposed to harsh conditions such as sandstorms, rain, and oil stains, making cleaning and maintenance difficult. The main problems with existing shade fabrics include:
[0005] Insufficient stain resistance: Traditional shade fabrics lack effective oil and water repellency, allowing oil stains and dirt to easily penetrate the fibers, forming stubborn stains that are difficult to remove. Ordinary shade fabrics are mostly made of PVC or polyester materials, which have high surface energy and easily absorb pollutants.
[0006] Cleaning is inconvenient: Adhered contaminants require chemical cleaners or high-pressure water guns to be thoroughly removed, which not only increases maintenance costs but may also damage the structure of the shade cloth. The lack of cleaning resources in outdoor environments further complicates the cleaning process.
[0007] Limited Functionality: Most shade fabrics focus solely on shading, lacking integration of multiple functions such as heat insulation, reflection, and flame retardancy. In high-temperature environments, insufficient heat insulation can lead to excessively high internal temperatures; in high-risk outdoor environments, insufficient flame retardancy may cause safety accidents.
[0008] Poor durability: After repeated cleaning, the surface coating of traditional sunshade fabric is prone to wear and peeling, gradually losing its function. Environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation and temperature changes will accelerate material aging and shorten its service life.
[0009] Environmental concerns: Some shade fabrics use fluorinated compounds as a stain-resistant coating. While these coatings offer good stain resistance, they pose environmental pollution and health risks. More environmentally friendly stain-resistant technologies need to be developed.
[0010] To address the aforementioned problems, the market urgently needs to develop a multifunctional, easy-to-clean, and durable sunshade fabric to overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies. This invention innovatively combines an oleophobic layer, a heat-insulating layer, a reflective layer, and a flame-retardant layer, and uses surface-modified nano-silica as the oleophobic material, effectively solving the problems of sunshade fabrics being easily soiled and difficult to clean during outdoor use.

Tests have shown that this sunshade fabric can reduce the internal temperature by 12°C, achieve an oil stain removal rate of over 95%, and has a flame retardant rating of B1.
[0050] Example 2: Material Parameter Optimization Implementation Method:

The addition of aramid fibers significantly improves the material's heat resistance and flame retardancy.
[0069] The oleophobic layer is made of nano-silica synergistically modified with fluorosilane and carbon nanotubes. Fluorosilane is first grafted onto the surface of the nano-silica, and then carboxylated carbon nanotubes are added to form a three-dimensional oleophobic network through chemical bonding. This oleophobic layer achieves a contact angle of 165°, a surface energy of only 12 mN / m, and excellent wear resistance.
[0070] The insulation layer employs a composite structure of vacuum insulation board (VIP) and aerogel, with a thickness of 0.5 mm and a thermal conductivity of 0.015 W / (m·K). The vacuum insulation board provides the core insulation performance, while the aerogel layer fills the gaps and provides hydrophobic functionality.
[0071] The reflective layer employs a composite structure of a silver reflective film and a transparent conductive oxide, with a thickness of 0.1 mm and a reflectivity of 98%.
