Description

Online detection type supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system and online detection method TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing equipment, in particular to an online detection type supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system and an online detection method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Supercritical carbon dioxide fluid dyeing is an environmentally friendly technology that has attracted much attention in the current dyeing process. Generally, when the temperature and pressure of a substance exceed the critical temperature and critical pressure, it will enter the state of supercritical fluid. Supercritical fluid has the characteristics of low viscosity, high diffusion coefficient and low surface tension like gas, and also has the characteristics of high density and high solubility like liquid, and different substances will have different chemical properties after forming supercritical fluid. The solubility of carbon dioxide supercritical fluid to substances will change with the change of the temperature and pressure of the environment, and carbon dioxide can increase lipophilicity after entering the supercritical fluid state, thereby having the ability to dissolve organic matter. Therefore, supercritical carbon dioxide can dissolve non-polar dyes, and then through the low surface tension characteristics of supercritical fluid, it can easily penetrate into porous tissues. Carbon dioxide supercritical fluid dyeing does not need to use water as a medium and is non-toxic, which can solve the environmental pollution caused by the existing dyeing process.

[0003] Polyester synthetic chemical long fiber textile fabric, in the traditional water medium dyeing process (belongs to chemical reaction dyeing), nylon needs to use about 60% acid auxiliary mixed colorant to adhere to color, polyester uses about 50% dispersion auxiliary mixed colorant to adhere to dyeing. The supercritical carbon dioxide fluid (gas medium instead of water medium) belongs to the colorant mixed fluid filled with colorant to achieve the color effect, which uses micron-level high-density fine primary color masterbatch as colorant, belongs to physical filling coloring, and does not distinguish the fiber composition attribute and needs to use auxiliary to adjust the affinity of coloring. For dyeing process, each time the large cargo dyeing is according to the colorant formula, according to the weight proportion of the dyeing fabric, the colorant is put into the dyeing kettle, the supercritical carbon dioxide mixed colorant fluid (belongs to the atomized superhigh pressure fluid), which is not in liquid state, after the coloration process is completed, the pressure is released, in principle, the colorant in the dyeing kettle has been used up, because the colorant powder is only suspended in the fluid, the fluid is discharged to low pressure, the carbon dioxide is restored to gas, and after filtration in the separation kettle, the pure carbon dioxide is pressurized to subcritical at normal temperature and recycled to flush, the residual floating color powder on the fabric is removed, the temperature is lowered, the pressure is released, and the kettle is evacuated to normal atmospheric pressure, and detection before the kettle is discharged is a necessary link. The traditional water dyeing is to cut small fabric pieces to dry and check the color, which is due to many reasons such as fabric type, yarn count, weaving style, weaving process, colorant compatibility, pipe bends, tees, valve scale and the like, which can cause the color of the fabric to not reach the expected value, so the detection of the dyed fabric is needed. Since the dyed fabric is in the dyeing kettle, it is very dark and has no light, and the dyeing kettle is in a high temperature and high pressure working environment during the dyeing process, so the supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system currently does not have an online detection function. In the prior art, when the color of the dyed fabric is detected, the dyed fabric is taken out from the dyeing kettle after the dyeing process of the supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system is completed, and then the color of the dyed fabric is detected in the environment outside the kettle. When it is found that the dyed fabric does not meet the requirements, the fabric needs to be put into the dyeing kettle again for secondary dyeing treatment. The above detection method has great disadvantages, such as large labor intensity and low dyeing work efficiency. SUMMARY

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] It also includes a circulating storage tank 2, a cooler 3, a high-pressure pump 4, a heater 5, an evaporator 6, a resolving kettle 7, and a condenser 8. The circulating storage tank 2 is used to store carbon dioxide gas. The carbon dioxide gas in the circulating storage tank 2 passes through the cooler 3, the high-pressure pump 4, and the heater 5 in sequence, and becomes a high-temperature supercritical fluid. The high-temperature supercritical fluid enters the dyeing kettle 1 and passes through the cloth to be dyed, and then the high-temperature supercritical fluid flows out of the dyeing kettle 1 and passes through the evaporator 6 and the resolving kettle 7 in sequence. The micron-sized color master dye separated after passing through the evaporator 6 and the resolving kettle 7 is recovered for standby use, and the separated carbon dioxide gas is sent to the circulating storage tank 2 through the condenser 8. The system also includes a carbon dioxide storage tank 10 and a delivery plunger pump 11. The delivery plunger pump 11 sends the carbon dioxide gas in the carbon dioxide storage tank 10 to the pipeline of the supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system.

[0037] In addition, a dyeing kettle 9 is further included, and a red-yellow-blue three primary color mixer 16 is arranged on the dyeing kettle 9, which is used to mix different color micron-sized color master dyes, and send the mixed micron-sized color master dyes into the dyeing kettle 9, and the dyeing kettle 9 is communicated with the dyeing kettle 1 through a pipeline.

[0038] In the embodiment, two dyeing kettles 1 are arranged in parallel, and of course, 3-6 dyeing kettles 1 can be arranged in parallel according to the working requirement, and each dyeing kettle 1 is provided with a circulating pump 28 and a circulating heater 29, and the circulating pump 28 and the circulating heater 29 form a supercritical fluid circulating system with the dyeing kettle 1. During the dyeing process, the circulating pump 28 can rotate in the forward and reverse directions, so that the supercritical fluid flows in the forward and reverse directions, so as to improve the dyeing efficiency.

[0039] The spectrophotometer includes a detection probe 12, a data line 13 and a spectrophotometer main body 14, a detection port 15 is arranged on the kettle wall of the dyeing kettle 1, the detection probe 12 is arranged at the detection port 15, the detection probe 12 transmits the color information of the dyed cloth in the dyeing kettle 1 to the spectrophotometer main body 14 through the data line 13, and the spectrophotometer main body 14 performs online detection on the color of the dyed cloth in the dyeing kettle 1. The detection probe in the spectrophotometer is arranged on the kettle wall of the dyeing kettle, so that the online color detection of the dyed cloth in the dyeing kettle is realized, and the mounting and unloading times of the dyed cloth are reduced, so as to solve the problems of large labor amount and low dyeing work efficiency in the prior art.

[0040] As shown in FIG. 2, the detection probe 12 includes a high-temperature and high-pressure light-transmitting plate 27, a sealing ring 17, a probe shell 18, a condenser lens cover 19, a scattering light source 20 and a light information sensor 21, a reflective light passing hole 22 is arranged at the center of the condenser lens cover 19, a light filtering device 23 is arranged at the reflective light passing hole, a plurality of light source mounting holes 24 are arranged on the condenser lens cover 19 along the periphery of the reflective light passing hole 22, the scattering light source 20 is arranged at the light source mounting hole 24, the condenser lens cover 19 is arranged in the probe shell 18, the probe shell 18 is fixed on the dyeing kettle 1, and the light information sensor 21 is arranged in the probe shell 18 and located above the light filtering device 23; the high-temperature and high-pressure light-transmitting plate 27 and the sealing ring 17 are arranged in the detection port 15, so as to seal the detection port 15; the light emitted by the scattering light source 20 passes through the condenser lens cover 19 to form a condensing light, and the condensing light irradiates the dyed cloth in the dyeing kettle 1 through the high-temperature and high-pressure light-transmitting plate 27, the reflective light of the dyed cloth is filtered by the light filtering device 23 and then irradiates the light information sensor 21, and the light information sensor 21 transmits the light information to the spectrophotometer main body 14 through the data line 13.

[0041] Since the detected object is the cloth in the dyeing kettle 1, the detection environment in the dyeing kettle 1 is quite different from the detection environment outside the dyeing kettle 1, and there is almost no light in the dyeing kettle 1, which is very dark, so the detection probe 12 does not adopt the technical scheme of the conventional integrating sphere, but adopts the light condensing cover 19 to improve the brightness in the dyeing kettle 1 through light condensing of the light condensing cover 19.

[0042] The light filtering device 23 is replaceable, and through the light filtering device 23, the spectrum of the reflected light can reach the most ideal state, and the best detection effect can be achieved. Through replacement of the light filtering device 23, the spectral power distribution can be adjusted according to the detection needs without replacing the light source.

[0043] The above-mentioned scattering light source adopts an LED lamp, which can not only save electric energy, but also simplify the circuit.

[0044] The light information sensor 21 is a fiber probe, and the data line 13 is a light guide fiber bundle. The fiber probe transmits the received reflected light through the light guide fiber bundle, so that the light information transmission is faster, and the photoelectric signal conversion is not necessary.

[0045] The detection port 15 is a circular hole with an internal thread, an annular boss 25 is arranged in the detection port 15, the sealing ring 17 is arranged on the annular boss 25, the high-temperature and high-pressure light-transmitting plate 27 is pressed on the sealing ring 17, the annular pressing plate 26 with an external thread is matched with the internal thread of the detection port 15 to press and fix the high-temperature and high-pressure light-transmitting plate 27. In this embodiment, the annular pressing plate 26 with an external thread can be integrally formed with the probe shell 18.

[0046] In the online detection type supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system, the cloth to be dyed is microcellular cloth implanted with electric charges treated by microcellular electric charge technology, and the micron-sized color master dye has electric charges attracting the electric charges on the cloth to be dyed. The cloth to be dyed is microcellular cloth implanted with electric charges treated by microcellular electric charge technology, and the micron-sized color master dye has electric charges attracting the electric charges on the cloth to be dyed. For example, the micron-sized color master dye has positive electric charges, and the cloth to be dyed has negative electric charges, and under the action of the positive electric charges and the negative electric charges, the micron-sized color master dye is adsorbed to the cloth to be dyed. The treatment method of the microcellular electric charge technology is as follows: after the cloth to be dyed (grey cloth) is subjected to dry cleaning, oil removal, dirt removal and pre-setting, the cloth is subjected to microcellular treatment on the cloth by a plasma device and is simultaneously implanted with negative electric charges, so that the cloth to be dyed forms microcellular cloth implanted with electric charges; the microcellular structure will shrink and restore as the negative electric charges weaken, so that after the cloth to be dyed is saturated with dye adsorption, the microcellular structure of the finished colored cloth disappears. Through years of work practice, it is known that the cloth that is not treated by the microcellular electric charge technology cannot be saturated with color master powder by using supercritical carbon dioxide boundary fluid dyeing; if traditional dyes are used, the dyes contain pure oil impurities as additives, and in addition to blocking and fouling, at most, the dyes can only be used to stain the color or cannot be used to dye at low fastness.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 3, the method for online detection by using the online detection type supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system is as follows:

[0048] S1, obtaining the color parameters of the standard sample: the dyed cloth meeting the color requirements is taken as the standard sample and is placed into the dyeing kettle, and the color parameters of the standard sample are obtained by the spectrophotometer through the detection probe, and after the detection is completed, the standard sample is taken out from the dyeing kettle.

[0049] The spectrophotometer can use the L*a*b coordinate system to represent different colors, and in the color parameters of the L*a*b coordinate system:

[0050] L: is the lightness axis, indicating black and white, 0 is black, and 100 is white;

[0051] a: is the red-green axis, positive value is red, negative value is green, and 0 is neutral;

[0052] b: is the yellow-blue axis, positive value is yellow, negative value is blue, and 0 is neutral;

[0053] In this embodiment, the color parameters of the standard sample obtained by the spectrophotometer through the detection probe are as follows: L = 74.40, a = 1.67, and b = 23.80.

[0054] S2, dispensing the micron-sized color master dye: first, the pre-dyed fabric is placed in the dyeing kettle, then according to the color parameters of the standard sample detected outside the dyeing kettle, the red, yellow and blue three primary color dispensers are adjusted to dispense the micron-sized color master dye of the required color, and the micron-sized color master dye is sent into the dyeing kettle.

[0055] In this step, it should be noted that the color parameters of the standard sample used for dispensing the micron-sized color master dye are not the color parameters in step S1, because the color of the dyed fabric is evaluated in the environment outside the dyeing kettle, so the color parameters of the standard sample used for dispensing the micron-sized color master dye are obtained by detecting the standard sample outside the dyeing kettle with a traditional spectrophotometer.

[0056] S3, fabric into color: start the supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing system, and perform supercritical carbon dioxide dyeing on the pre-dyed fabric. During the dyeing process, the temperature in the dyeing kettle is 80-120℃, and the pressure is 27-31 MPa. After completing the color-into process, the dyeing kettle is depressurized, and the pre-dyed fabric is circulated and flushed with pure carbon dioxide subcritical fluid with a temperature of 20-40℃ and a pressure of 11-15 MPa to remove the residual floating color powder on the fabric surface. After flushing, the dyeing kettle is again depressurized to be in the state of external normal atmospheric pressure.

[0057] Dyeing process: supercritical carbon dioxide fluid dyeing is carried out at a corresponding high temperature of 80-120℃, so that the fabric fiber charge micro-honeycomb expands, and then the supercritical 27 to 31 MPa fluid repeatedly penetrates and fills the original color master powder, so that the negatively charged color master powder is easily absorbed by the polyamide synthetic fiber fabric to adsorb and implant color. When the filling polymeric density of the negatively charged original color master powder reaches the saturation state, it is reduced to normal temperature and depressurized, the weakly ionized micro-honeycomb and the fabric fiber tissue shrinkage correspondingly close to lock the color powder overflow, and then the normal temperature and high pressure carbon dioxide subcritical flow field is flushed to remove the residual color powder on the fabric surface, so that the color fastness of the fabric reaches 4 or more.

[0058] S4, obtaining the color parameters of the dyed fabric: starting the spectrophotometer, and the spectrophotometer obtains the color parameters of the dyed fabric in the dyeing kettle through the detection probe.

[0059] In this embodiment, the spectrophotometer obtains the color parameters of the standard sample through the detection probe as follows: L=74.88, a=1.33, b=23.70.

[0060] S5, judging whether the color of the dyed fabric is qualified or not: comparing the color parameter of the dyed fabric with the color parameter of the standard sample, if the difference between the two is within the predetermined range, the color of the dyed fabric is qualified, and the dyed fabric is taken out of the dyeing kettle; if the difference between the two exceeds the predetermined range, the color of the dyed fabric is unqualified, and the dyed fabric in the dyeing kettle is subjected to secondary correction and dyeing treatment.

[0061] For "the difference between the two is within the predetermined range", all colors can be perceived and measured by Lab color space, and these data can also be used to represent the color difference of the test sample, and are usually represented by △L, △a, △b, and the total color difference is represented by △Eab.

[0062] ΔL = L of the test sample - L of the standard sample (lightness / white and black difference);

[0063] Δa = a of the test sample - a of the standard sample (red / green difference);

[0064] Δb = b of the test sample - b of the standard sample (yellow / blue difference).

[0065] ΔEab (or ΔE) is the total color difference, and the larger the value is, the larger the color difference is.

[0066] The color difference formula of ΔEab: ΔEab = [(ΔL)2 + (Δa)2 + (Δb)2]1 / 2.

[0067] The predetermined range is: -2 ≤ ΔL ≥ 2; -1 ≤ Δa ≥ 1; -1 ≤ Δa ≥ 1; -2 ≤ ΔEab ≥ 2.

[0068] In this embodiment:

[0069] ΔL = L of the test sample - L of the standard sample = 74.88 - 74.40 = 0.48

[0070] Δa = a of the test sample - a of the standard sample = 1.33 - 1.67 = -0.34

[0071] Δb = b of the test sample - b of the standard sample = 23.70 - 23.80 = -0.10.

[0072] ΔEab = ΔL + Δa + Δb = 0.04.

[0073] From the above test results, it can be seen that ΔL is positive, indicating that the test sample is lighter (whiter) than the standard sample, the color difference is within the predetermined range; Δa is negative, indicating that the test sample is greener (greener) than the standard sample, which is within the predetermined range; Δb is negative, indicating that the test sample is bluer (bluer) than the standard sample, which is within the predetermined range; ΔEab is also within the predetermined range. It can be seen that the color of the dyed fabric is qualified, and the dyed fabric is taken out of the dyeing kettle.

[0074] In order to further control the quality of the dyed cloth, the dyed cloth after online detection is taken out from the dyeing kettle, and further off-kettle detection is carried out: through the cloth inspection machine, the standard small color sample is compared and the parameters are read to ensure that the color difference, color light, color saturation density of the cloth head and tail, cloth edge and middle, surface and inner layer are all above 95 points.

[0075] In the above online detection method, the standard sample is placed in the dyeing kettle for detection before dyeing, so that the detection environment of the color parameters of the standard sample is the same as that of the online detection, greatly improving the precision of the online detection.

[0076] In addition, those skilled in the art can combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in the specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples without contradiction. Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and cannot be understood as limiting the present application, and those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, replacements and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present application.
