The application provides a grafted copolymerization modified
polyester fiber and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method of the grafted copolymerization modified
polyester fiber comprises the following steps: S1. adding 2-hydroxy-2-methylphenylpropane-1-
ketone and 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol into an
ethanol-water mixed
solvent, stirring to obtain a reaction solution; S2. placing
polyester fibers in the reaction solution, then irradiating the polyester fibers with
ultraviolet light to perform a reaction, washing, and
drying to obtain the grafted copolymerization modified polyester
fiber. In the application, through the
grafting reaction, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol with a bulky
benzene ring side group of a larger steric hindrance and a hydroxyl group is introduced into the polyester fiber, the molecular chain regularity of the polyester is destroyed, the
crystallinity is reduced, the
fiber strength is reduced, the fuzz ball is easy to fall off, and the anti-pilling performance of the fiber is improved. Moreover, the reduction of the
crystallinity can increase the proportion of the amorphous region, so that the dye is more easily diffused into the fiber, and the
dyeing depth is ensured.
