The invention relates to the technical field of fibers, and discloses a high-water-absorption
fiber for paper diapers and a preparation method thereof.The high-water-absorption
fiber is prepared by taking
polyvinyl alcohol as a base material and assisting with modified
illite and an
aerogel modified material through electrostatic
spinning, a natural
antibacterial agent pterostilbene is grafted to the surface of the
illite, and the high-water-absorption
fiber is prepared through electrostatic
spinning; on one hand, the compatibility between the
illite and the
polyvinyl alcohol can be improved through a
surface modification mode, and the water
absorption effect of the fiber can be enhanced to a certain extent by utilizing the pore structure of the illite, on the other hand, the problem that the illite is easy to oxidize and lose
efficacy can be effectively improved after the
pterostilbene is grafted on the surface of the illite, and the water
absorption effect of the fiber can be enhanced to a certain extent. The
aerogel modified material has a special pore structure, so that
urine can be quickly absorbed and locked and prevented from back seepage, meanwhile, the pore structure can store the
urine, the absorbed water is not easy to flow out, and the excellent water absorption can greatly enhance the water
absorption capacity of the
polyvinyl alcohol fiber.
