Preparation of SiO2/PPS Fiber and Study of its Heat-Resistant Properties

Through the addition of nano-silicon dioxide in the pure polyphenylene sulfide, the masterbatches were obtained, then using melt spinning technology to prepare SiO2/PPS fiber. The structure and heat-resistant properties of samples were characterized by transmission election microscopy (TEM), infrared spectrum (IR), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and other measurements. The experiment results indicate that the mechanical and heat resistance properties of PPS fiber were improved after adding the content of 1%wt nano-silicon dioxide. When the fiber was heated at 230°C for 24 hours, the breaking strength and elongation increased by 2.412cN/dtex and 11.90% compared to the pure PPS fiber. Moreover, the working temperature raised by 50°C.

Study on the Preparation, Structure and Performances of Antibacterial PET Masterbatch

The antibacterial PET (polyethylene terephthalate) masterbatch was extruded from twin screw extruder, using silver and zinc-loading Nano-SiO2 antibacterial agent (SLSZ) as the functional material. The content of SLSZ and extruding techniques were investigated. The dispersion and compatibility of antibacterial agent in antibacterial PET masterbatch were further characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy and Transmission Electron Microscopy. The antibacterial performances and adsorption process of the antibacterial PET masterbatch against Escherichia coli (E. coli) were tested using alive-bacteria-counting method. The experimental results indicate that when the content of SLSZ was 30 wt. %, the antibacterial agent with an average diameter of 150nm showed excellent dispersion and compatibility in antibacterial PET masterbatch, and had excellent antibacterial performances. The adsorption process of antibacterial PET masterbatch against E. coli was controlled by Coulomb force between them. As the amount of the antibacterial PET masterbatch increased, the adsorbing rate and capacity were increased.

Preparation and Properties of Antibacterial Functional PET Fibers with Ag-Loading MWNTs

With Ag-loading MWNTs antibacterial agent as functional material, the antibacterial functional PET fibers were prepared by melt blending spinning-draft one-step method. The crystallinity and the orientation of specimens were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, polarization microscope and sound velocimeter. Moreover, the mechanical properties and antibacterial properties were measured. The results showed that the antibacterial PET fibers had good spinnability when the content of Ag-loading MWNTs less than 1.0 % (wt); compared with pure PET fibers, the degree of crystallinity, the degree of orientation and the fracture strength were improved, but the elongation was decreased; the antibacterial PET fibers exhibited excellent antibacterial properties against E.coli by the method of flask shaking.

Study on the Dyeing Behavior of Wool Fiber Treated with Nano-SiO2/Ag Antibacterial Agent

Wool fiber was firstly pretreated by nano-SiO2/Ag antibacterial agent, and then dyed with an acid dyes at low temperature by ultrasonic dyeing. Many factors had an important influence on the dye ability and the antibacterial behavior during the dyeing process of antibacterial wool fiber. The experimental results indicate that the dye-takeup rates of antibacterial wool fiber were enhanced with the increase of the concentration of nano-SiO2/Ag, the dyeing temperature, the dyeing time and the ultrasonic frequency (less than 60Hz). However, the antibacterial ratios of wool fiber were declined in the impact of these factors other than the concentration of antibacterial agent.

Research on the Rheological Properties of Domestic and International PPS Resin

Using the capillary rheometer to study the effect of shear rate, shear stress and temperature of Japanese and domestic PPS resin( fiber grade) on the apparent viscosity, index of non-Newtonian and viscous flow activation energy.The results show that with the increase of shear rate and temperature,compared to the domestic sample, Japanese sample has higher apparent viscosity, smaller non-Newtonian index(n),lower viscous flow activation energy,and smaller sensitivity to temperature.The Japanese specimens are suitable for processing and forming under high shear rate and spinning speed, but the domestic specimens are suitable for processing and froming under low shear rate and spinning speed.

Effect of Microwave Treatment on the Properties of PET Fiber

PET fiber was preprocessed by means of microwave radiation. Different reaction parameters such as the time, the power and the Ph value of solution were optioned to study the degree of the fiber hydrolysis. The changes of mechanical performance and hygroscopicity of the fiber were analyzed, which showed that the best power of microwave radiation was the 250W, the best reaction time was 5 min, and the Ph value of solution was 9. Compared with the untreated fiber, the fracture strength of treated fiber is 1.686cN/dtex and the moisture regain is 0.58%. The morphology structure were characterized by SEM and the fracture strength were tested by filament electronic strength tester. The results showed that the surface of PET fibers became rough and the quantities of the -OH and -COOH functional groups on the surface increased after etching. Meanwhile the hygroscopicity of the treated fibers had been enhanced obviously and the fiber strength had been reduced.

Explore the DMF Stripping Process of PET/Cotton Blended Fabric Dyed by Disperse/Direct Dyes

For a long time, discoloring PET/cotton blend fabric is a difficult topic in textile industry. For it, this search work was carried out to stripping PET/cotton fabric dyed by disperse/direct dye with dimethyl formamide. Though experiment, results is discovered as follows: firstly, the PET/cotton fabric dyed by disperse/direct dye is swelled in the home-made swelling liquid. Then, put it into striping liquid which is mainly contain dimethyl formamide, and heat to 140°C，and keep 30 minutes. The stripping rate of three kinds of test samples can be over 80 percent, and some can reach 95 percent. While the strength retention rate also can reach about 90 Percent.

Effects of Different Factors on Antibacterial Properties of Crosslinked Chitosan-Coated Ag-Loading Nano-SiO2 Composites

Chitosan (CTS) and Ag-loading nano-SiO2 (SLS) are excellent antibacterial materials. However, when used alone, these monocomponent antibacterial agents are sometimes far from meeting requirements in special conditions. In this study, crosslinked chitosan-coated Ag-loading nano-SiO2 composites (CCTS-SLS) were synthesized by adsorption crosslinking reaction. Then Escherichia coil (ATCC 8099) was taken as the experimental bacteria for antibacterial tests. The experimental results indicate that the mass ratio of SLS to chitosan had the greatest influences on the value of MIC (minimal inhibitory concentration) for CCTS-SLS composite. However, the heating temperature had a weak influence on the antibacterial performance of CCTS-SLS composite.

Cellulose fibers were chemically modified on surface by acrylamide polymerization and glutaraldehyde crosslinking. The chemical and morphological structures of modified cellulose fibers were investigated with X-ray diffraction, FTIR spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystalline conformations of the cellulose fibers were slightly changed in polymerization and crosslinking process. The wet strength of modified cellulose fibers was improved. Appreciable difference between the surfaces of native and modified cellulose fibers was observed from SEM images.

Carbon microspheres (CMSs) were used as the carrier to prepare the Ag-loading CMSs (Ag/CMSs) antibacterial agent through the method of chemical adsorption. The morphologies and structures of modified CMSs were characterized by using the field emission Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). The results showed that silver was absorbed on the surface of CMSs. The bacterial inhibition ring experiment showed that Ag/CMSs had good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, meanwhile the diameters of the bacterial inhibition rings were 19 mm against Staphylococcus aureus and 21 mm against Escherichia coli, respectively.
