Detailed Description
The following is a description of the embodiments of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber and the manufacturing method thereof and the fabric comprising the same, which are disclosed in the present application, by specific examples, and those skilled in the art can understand the advantages and effects of the present application from the disclosure of the present application. The present application is capable of other and different embodiments and its several details are capable of modifications and variations in various respects, all without departing from the present application. The drawings in the present application are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be drawn to scale. The following embodiments will further describe the related technical content of the present application in detail, but the disclosure is not intended to limit the scope of the present application. In addition, the term "or" as used herein should be taken to include any one or combination of more of the associated listed items as the case may be.
In order to overcome the problems that a large amount of solvent is required to be used, the physical properties of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber are not good and the production speed cannot be improved when a dry spinning method is used in the prior art, the application provides a method for manufacturing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber. In the whole process, no solvent is needed, and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be manufactured at higher production speed. In addition, the prepared thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has better physical properties.
After the thermoplastic polyurethane is synthesized, the thermoplastic polyurethane is directly heated and melted without adding a solvent to dissolve the thermoplastic polyurethane, and then is reshaped. Thus, the physical properties of the thermoplastic polyurethane itself can be maintained without being degraded by the solvent dissolving step.
The molten thermoplastic polyurethane is formed through an extruder and a die orifice, and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be obtained after cooling, and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber prepared by the method has good physical properties. Therefore, the production speed of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be improved, and the problem of yarn breakage can not be caused.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a method of manufacturing a thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber according to the present application; fig. 2 shows a schematic front view of a melt spinning machine.
The method for producing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber of the present application comprises the following steps. A Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) rubber pellet is provided (step S1). Then, the thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles are put into a feeding groove 1 of a melt spinning machine, the thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles are conveyed to a heating area 2 through a screw, and the thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles are heated by a heating sheet to form molten thermoplastic polyurethane. The molten thermoplastic polyurethane is passed through a screen and finally fed through the feed pipe 3 to the spinning box 4, and a thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is produced (step S2).
Since the thermoplastic polyurethane can be shaped in the melt, the use of solvents can be eliminated and the step of dissolving the thermoplastic polyurethane with a solvent can be omitted. Therefore, in selecting the material of the thermoplastic polyurethane, the solubility of the thermoplastic polyurethane in a solvent does not need to be taken into consideration, and the thermoplastic polyurethane with higher molecular weight or higher hardness can be selected as the raw material.
In step S1, the shore hardness of the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles is 45D to 80D, and the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles have higher structural strength to withstand various temperature changes and tensile deformation during the manufacturing process due to higher hardness.
In some embodiments herein, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb has a melting point of 150 ℃ to 250 ℃; preferably, the melting point of the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles is 170-250 ℃; more preferably, the melting point of the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is from 170 ℃ to 220 ℃.
In some embodiments herein, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb has a weight average molecular weight of from 30000 g/mole to 450000 g/mole; preferably, the weight average molecular weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is from 35000 g/mole to 400000 g/mole; more preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb has a weight average molecular weight of from 40000 g/mole to 400000 g/mole.
In some embodiments herein, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb has an Intrinsic Viscosity (IV) of from 0.5 to 3.0; preferably, the intrinsic viscosity of the thermoplastic polyurethane gel particles is 0.5 to 2.5; more preferably, the intrinsic viscosity of the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is from 1.0 to 2.0.
Further, in some embodiments herein, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is made from thermoplastic polyurethane as a single major component, by "single major component" is meant that the content of thermoplastic polyurethane in conventional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is greater than or equal to 75 weight percent.
Preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles only contain one polymer of the thermoplastic polyurethane, and do not contain other polymers (such as nylon, polyester and the like). Thus, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fabric made of the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb are also formed from a single component. Once the product is consumed, the components are single, so the product can be directly recycled.
Specifically, the material of the formed thermoplastic polyurethane micelle can be polyether type thermoplastic polyurethane or polyester type thermoplastic polyurethane, and the aging resistance can reach more than 4 grades (the fiber strength of more than 60 percent can be still maintained under the environment that the temperature is 70 ℃ and the relative humidity is 95 percent for 14 days). Since the polyester thermoplastic polyurethane is more susceptible to yellowing (yellowing), an ultraviolet absorber may be optionally added to the polyester thermoplastic polyurethane to reduce the yellowing, and the manner of adding the ultraviolet absorber will be described in detail later.
The thermoplastic polyurethane crumb rubber of the present application has better physical properties and is therefore suitable for higher production speeds to increase the yield of thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fibers. In step S2, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is produced at a production speed of 1200 m/min to 6000 m/min; preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is prepared at a production speed of 1500 meters/minute to 3000 meters/minute; more preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is produced at a production rate of 2000 m/min to 3000 m/min. Generally, the conventional dry spinning process usually produces fibers at a production speed of 600 m/min to 1000 m/min, so as to avoid filament breakage. Therefore, the method for producing thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fibers of the present application can solve the problem that the production rate cannot be increased in the conventional production method.
In some embodiments of the present application, the melt spinning machine has a take-up tension of 0.05cN/F to 0.50cN/F to avoid breaking of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber. Preferably, the melt spinning machine has a take-up tension of 0.08cN/F to 0.35 cN/F. More preferably, the melt spinning machine has a take-up tension of 0.10cN/F to 0.35 cN/F.
In some embodiments of the present application, the melt spinning machine is set to a temperature of 150 ℃ to 300 ℃. Preferably, the set temperature of the melt spinning machine is 180 ℃ to 300 ℃. More preferably, the set temperature of the melt spinning machine is 180 ℃ to 250 ℃.
In some embodiments of the present application, the gear pump (gear pump) in the melt spinning machine is set at a temperature of 200 ℃ to 300 ℃ to avoid clogging of the raw material and resulting instrument damage. Preferably, the gear pump in the melt spinning machine is set at a temperature of 200 ℃ to 280 ℃. More preferably, the gear pump in the melt spinning machine is set to a temperature of 200 ℃ to 250 ℃.
After the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is formed, oil with the concentration of 3 to 20 weight percent is sprayed on the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber through an oil nozzle to reduce the friction force between the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fibers, and then the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fibers are collected into a bundle. After oiling, the actual oil concentration on the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is 0.3 to 3.0 weight percent.
For example, a 20 weight percent oil is comprised of 20 grams of oil and 80 grams of water. The oil agent may be an emulsified oil agent containing a silicon component, or an emulsified oil agent containing a polyol ester component. Preferably, the oil agent is an emulsified oil agent containing a silicon component.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the method for manufacturing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber according to the present invention further includes a step of stretching the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber to adjust the size and fiber density (fiber density) of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber.
In some embodiments of the present application, the extension process is performed at a temperature of 50 ℃ to 150 ℃ (step S3). Preferably, the extension treatment is carried out at a temperature of 75 ℃ to 125 ℃.
In the stretching process, the temperature of the first roller (roller)51 is controlled to heat the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber to soften the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber. After softening the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber, the draw ratio of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be controlled by adjusting the rotation speed ratio of the first roller 51 to the second roller 52. In the stretching process, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is continuously stretched between the first roller 51 and the second roller 52, and the stretching process is completed when the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber completely passes through the second roller 52.
In some embodiments of the present application, the draw ratio of the drawing process is greater than 1.0 to 4.0 times, i.e., the rotation speed of the second roller 52 is greater than 1.0 to 4.0 times the rotation speed of the first roller 51. In practical application, the stretch ratio of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be adjusted according to the final requirement specification of the product.
For example, when the rotation speed of the second drum 52 is 4.0 times the rotation speed of the first drum 51, the density of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber after the stretching process is 0.25 times the density of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber before the stretching process, and the length of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber after the stretching process is 4.0 times the length of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber before the stretching process.
The method for manufacturing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber of the present application further includes the step of subjecting the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber subjected to the drawing treatment to a sizing treatment at a temperature of 50 ℃ to 150 ℃, the temperature in the sizing treatment being higher than that in the drawing treatment by 5 ℃ to 20 ℃ (step S4). Preferably, the setting treatment is carried out at a temperature of 55 ℃ to 150 ℃.
In the sizing process, the number of rotations of the third drum 53 and the fourth drum 54 is the same as that of the second drum 52 in the extension process, with the difference that: the temperature of the third and fourth rolls 53 and 54 in the setting process is controlled to be slightly higher than the temperature of the first and second rolls 51 and 52 in the extension process (slightly higher than 5 ℃ to 20 ℃).
In the setting process, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is softened again due to the temperature rise again, thereby releasing the stress stored in the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber during the stretching process.
After the stretching treatment and the setting treatment, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is wound up by a winder 6, and the preparation of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is completed.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic side view of the rolling machine of fig. 2 after rolling. In some embodiments, the traverse angle θ (winding-on angle) of the winding machine 6 is 4 ° to 8 °. However, the present application is not limited thereto.
The thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber of the present application may have a fiber strength of greater than 2 grams per denier (g/d) as measured; preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has a fiber strength of 2 g/denier to 10 g/denier; more preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has a fiber strength of 2 g/denier to 5 g/denier. The thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has an elongation of 80% or less; preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has an elongation of 60% or less; more preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has an elongation of 50% or less. The boiling water shrinkage of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber is less than or equal to 30 percent; preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber has a boiling water shrinkage of 20% or less.
Further, the rolled thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber may be subjected to other processes to obtain a semi-drawn yarn (POY), a Fully Drawn Yarn (FDY) and a Draw Textured Yarn (DTY). However, the present application is not limited thereto.
Also, the bulkiness of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber may be increased by a false twisting machine, or the elasticity of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber may be increased by a draw twisting machine. Thus, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can be applied more widely.
In addition, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fibers can be woven into thermoplastic polyurethane fabrics by some weaving techniques. The thermoplastic polyurethane fabric made of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber also has the advantages of good physical properties and direct recycling.
It is to be noted that the method for producing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber of the present invention can also be carried out by dyeing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber simultaneously with the production of the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber, and the conventional dyeing process for the fiber or fabric can be omitted.
Generally, the dyeing process is to soak the fiber or fabric in a high temperature colorant solution for 30 to 60 minutes, and after the fiber or fabric is colored, the fiber or fabric is washed and dried to complete the dyeing process. Crystalline polymers (e.g., polyesters) are often dyed by the above-described steps. However, the dyeing procedure described above does not provide good dyeing results for non-crystalline polymers (e.g., polyurethane). Therefore, no good dyeing method for polyurethane fibers is available in the prior art.
In some embodiments of the present application, the thermoplastic polyurethane crumb rubber comprises a conventional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb rubber and a colored thermoplastic polyurethane crumb rubber. The conventional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is a crumb formed solely from thermoplastic polyurethane without the inclusion of a colorant. The colorful thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles refer to colloidal particles, the main component of which is thermoplastic polyurethane, and pigments are dispersed in the thermoplastic polyurethane.
Thus, when the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles are mixed and melted, they have the same color as the color of the color thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles. After the above steps S2 to S4, the elastic thermoplastic polyurethane fiber having the same color as the colored thermoplastic polyurethane gel particles can be obtained without performing a separate dyeing process.
Specifically, the total weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles (including the conventional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles and the colored thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles) is 100 wt%, and the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles include 0.1 to 4 wt% of the colorant. Preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles comprise 0.2 to 3 weight percent of pigment. More preferably, the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles comprise 0.3 to 1.5 weight percent of pigment.
And, the total weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles (including the conventional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles and the colored thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles) is 100 weight percent, and the addition amount of the colored thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles is 1 to 15 weight percent, and can be adjusted according to the difference of the coloring material. Preferably, the colored thermoplastic polyurethane crumb rubber is added in an amount of 1 to 12 weight percent. More preferably, the colored thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles are added in an amount of 1 to 10% by weight.
In some embodiments, the colorant may be a white colorant, such as: titanium dioxide particles, calcium carbonate particles or barium sulfate particles. After the addition of the white thermoplastic polyurethane crumb, the white colorant is present in an amount of 0.1 to 4 weight percent of the total thermoplastic polyurethane crumb.
In other embodiments, the colorant may be a black colorant, such as: graphite powder, carbon nano-tube or graphene. After the black thermoplastic polyurethane crumb was added, the black colorant was contained in an amount of 0.1 to 4 weight percent in the entire thermoplastic polyurethane crumb.
In addition, in some embodiments of the present application, the conventional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is made from thermoplastic polyurethane as a single main component, and the colored thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is made from thermoplastic polyurethane and a colorant as components. And, the materials of the conventional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb and the materials of the colored thermoplastic polyurethane crumb do not contain other types of polymers (e.g., nylon, polyester, etc.). Therefore, the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber and the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fabric prepared from the thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles can be directly recycled.
In addition, in some embodiments of the present application, the thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles may further include a functional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particle, where the functional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particle refers to a rubber particle in which the main component is thermoplastic polyurethane and a functional additive is dispersed in the thermoplastic polyurethane.
For example, the functional additive may be a uv absorber, the addition of which delays yellowing of the thermoplastic polyurethane, particularly for polyester-based thermoplastic polyurethanes.
Specifically, the functional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb includes 0.1 to 4 weight percent of the functional additive, based on the total weight of the functional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb being 100 weight percent. Preferably, the functional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particle comprises 0.2 to 3 weight percent of functional additive. More preferably, the functional thermoplastic polyurethane rubber particles comprise 0.3 weight percent to 1.5 weight percent of the functional additive ratio.
And the total weight of the thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles is 100 weight percent, and the adding amount of the functional thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles is 1 weight percent to 15 weight percent. Preferably, the addition amount of the functional thermoplastic polyurethane crumb is 1 to 12 weight percent. More preferably, the addition amount of the functional thermoplastic polyurethane colloidal particles is 1 to 10 weight percent.
Therefore, the method for manufacturing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber can finish the dyeing process while preparing the thermoplastic polyurethane elastic fiber, so as to save the whole process time.
