Description

Transparent physical gel fiber and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of preparation of high polymer materials, in particular to a transparent physical gel fiber and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Any discussion of the prior art throughout the specification should in no way be considered as an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of common general knowledge in the field.
The polymer gel fiber is a polymer fiber of a system formed by a three-dimensional network formed by crosslinking polymerization of molecular chains and a solvent, has higher water content, certain water retention capacity or better mechanical property compared with other types of fibers, can have different properties according to different solvent types, and has great potential to be widely applied to the fields of agriculture, industry, medical and health, intelligent materials and the like.
At present, the traditional gel fiber preparation method comprises wet spinning, mold forming and other methods, and mainly comprises two major types of physical gel fibers and chemical gel fibers, wherein the chemical gel fibers have potential application value in the emerging field due to the high transparency, flexibility and other advantages, but have the defects of complex process steps, complex raw materials, chemical residues and the like, and become the main problems in the practical application process; for example, polyacrylamide gel fibers require ultraviolet light equipment for crosslinking, and the gel fibers have residual chemical reagents such as unreacted initiator and crosslinking agent. Chinese patent application CN201910634863.7 discloses a preparation method of hydrogel fiber, which comprises polymerizing a polymerization system of reactive monomer containing quadruple hydrogen bond and double bond, cross-linking agent, and acrylamide, and injecting the solution into deionized water by needle to obtain hydrogel fiber. However, the crosslinking method adopted by the gel fiber is chemical crosslinking, and the used chemical crosslinking agent is at least one selected from the block copolymers F127, so that the prepared gel fiber has residual crosslinking agent, has potential safety hazards and is limited to be applied to biomedicine and the like. The Chinese patent application CN202210227801.6 discloses a preparation method of stretchable elastic conductive polymer-based hydrogel fiber, which comprises the steps of mixing an elastic polymer matrix, aniline monomer, acid solution, sodium alginate solution and initiator solution to obtain spinning solution, extruding the spinning solution into a coagulating bath in which divalent or trivalent non-oxidant metal salt is dissolved to obtain hydrogel fiber, performing instant freezing on the hydrogel fiber, performing in-situ polymerization and crosslinking reaction, and thawing to obtain stretchable elastic conductive polymer-based hydrogel fiber, wherein the prepared gel fiber has certain mechanical strength, ductility and conductivity. However, the gel fiber prepared by the method is still not high enough in elasticity, low in stretching multiple, complex in preparation steps and easy to produce residues of other substances, and the prepared gel fiber is in an opaque state. The physical gel fibers are few in variety, are poor in opacity and flexibility, have single functions and the like, and cannot meet the performance requirements of practical application. Therefore, high performance, multifunctional physical gel fibers are in need of development.
Disclosure of Invention
Accordingly, the invention aims to provide a transparent physical gel fiber, and a preparation method and application thereof. The transparent physical gel fiber is obtained by taking polyvinyl alcohol, salt-soluble/antifreeze inorganic salt and water as raw materials, forming in a transient freezing mode and rapidly thawing, and has the advantages of high elasticity, high transparency and adhesiveness, high ductility, water retention, antifreeze property, ionic conductivity and the like, and greatly expands the application of the polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber in the fields of flexible sensing materials and optical fiber core layer materials. In addition, the material related to the preparation method is nontoxic and harmless, the raw materials are simple, the preparation method is simple and easy to implement, the fiber is rapidly formed, the gel fiber finished product can be obtained after about 10 minutes, the preparation process is environment-friendly, and the method is an efficient and stable method for preparing the transparent physical gel fiber. In addition, the diameter and mechanical properties of the transparent physical gel fiber can be effectively regulated and controlled by regulating and controlling the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol, the content of inorganic salt with salt solubility/freezing resistance, the pushing speed and pulling speed of an injection device, the aperture of the injection device and the like, so that the method is more flexible.
Specifically, the invention provides the following technical scheme.
In a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of preparing transparent physical gel fibers comprising: extruding the polyvinyl alcohol gel precursor liquid into a condensing bath for cold forming, drawing out a formed product, thawing, winding and collecting;
wherein the polyvinyl alcohol gel solution contains a salt-soluble/antifreeze inorganic salt (also referred to herein as a salt-soluble/antifreeze inorganic salt).
In an embodiment of the invention, the condensation bath is liquid nitrogen or dry ice, more preferably liquid nitrogen. Compared with other freezing environments or freezing modes, the condensing bath provided by the invention can be used for instantly freezing and forming the polyvinyl alcohol gel precursor liquid, and liquid nitrogen or dry ice can provide more stable temperature and faster freezing speed, and particularly, when liquid nitrogen is frozen, the ice crystals formed by water are tiny and uniform, and a homogeneous microstructure is more easily obtained.
Unlike chemical crosslinking, the present invention prepares gel fiber through physical crosslinking, and has simplified technological process, high efficiency, no toxicity and no chemical solvent residue.
In addition, the inventor tries to prepare the polyvinyl alcohol/inorganic salt hydrogel by using a circulating freeze-thaw method in the research process, and then obtains gel fibers by stretching and fixing orientation, so that the prepared fibers have certain excellent characteristics, such as special-shaped cross section, high mechanical strength and high water content, however, the method cannot prepare the gel long fibers, the time required for freezing and thawing the polyvinyl alcohol/inorganic salt precursor liquid is long, often exceeds 1 day, continuous and large-scale preparation cannot be realized, and the obtained polyvinyl alcohol fibers are opaque and non-adhesive, which can limit the application of the polyvinyl alcohol fibers in the requirements of transparency and adhesiveness. The invention adopts a low-temperature condensing bath mode to carry out quick freezing molding on the extruded polyvinyl alcohol gel solution, and pulls out and quick defreezes, the method can obtain a fiber finished product about 10 minutes, the preparation steps are simple, the efficiency is high, the microstructure of the prepared gel fiber presents a homogeneous state, the prepared gel fiber has good flexibility, and a plurality of excellent properties including excellent properties such as high elasticity, high transparency, adhesiveness, high ductility, water retention, freezing resistance, ion conductivity, light conductivity and the like can be considered, so that the application field is greatly expanded. In some embodiments of the present invention, the number average molecular weight of the raw material polyvinyl alcohol is 7000 to 200000, the alcoholysis degree is 80 to 99.9%, and the polyvinyl alcohol raw material may be 1799, 2099, 2299, 2499, 2699, 1788 type polyvinyl alcohol, etc.; in embodiments of the invention, the molecular weight of the polyvinyl alcohol affects the mechanical properties of the fibers, and relatively higher molecular weights of the polyvinyl alcohol result in relatively stronger mechanical properties. The salt-soluble inorganic salt is one or more selected from calcium chloride, lithium chloride, zinc chloride and magnesium chloride. The salt-soluble and freeze-resistant inorganic salt is different from inorganic salts commonly used for salting out, such as sodium sulfate, magnesium sulfate, ammonium sulfate, sodium chloride, sodium citrate and the like, and the inventor finds that the salting-out inorganic salt often induces water loss of hydrogel to reduce the water content of the hydrogel in research, so that the technical effect of the invention cannot be realized.
In some embodiments of the invention, the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol in the polyvinyl alcohol gel solution is 10wt% to 35wt%, and the concentration of the salt-soluble, freeze-resistant inorganic salt is 1mol/L to 5mol/L. In a more preferred embodiment, the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol in the polyvinyl alcohol gel solution is 15wt% to 20wt%; the concentration of the salt-soluble and freezing-resistant inorganic salt is 2mol/L to 3mol/L. The concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol refers to the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol in the solvent after the polyvinyl alcohol is dissolved in the solvent, for example, for a ternary system, assuming that the mass of salt-soluble, antifreeze inorganic salt, polyvinyl alcohol and water (solvent) are a, b and c respectively, the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol solution is [ b/(b+c) ]. 100%. In some embodiments of the invention, the concentration of polyvinyl alcohol affects the mechanical properties of the fibers, and relatively higher concentrations of polyvinyl alcohol result in relatively stronger mechanical properties. In some embodiments of the invention, the concentration of the salt-soluble, freeze-resistant inorganic salt affects the flexibility, transparency, and freeze resistance of the resulting fiber, and a relatively higher concentration of the salt-soluble, freeze-resistant inorganic salt helps to achieve relatively better flexibility, transparency, and freeze resistance.
In some embodiments of the invention, the extrusion may employ a push injection device having a nozzle tip with an inner diameter of 5 μm to 2500 μm, preferably 500 μm to 2000 μm; the diameter of the formed object can be adjusted by adjusting the inner diameter of the spray head. For example, in some embodiments, the push injection device may be a spinneret plate or a syringe, or the like, but is not limited thereto. Compared with an injector, the spinneret plate has higher yield, and a proper pushing injection device can be selected according to the requirement.
In some embodiments of the invention, the extrusion is carried out at a uniform speed, wherein the speed of advance is from 0.1mm/s to 100mm/s, preferably from 0.2mm/s to 10mm/s.
In some embodiments of the invention, the speed at extraction is from 0.1mm/s to 100mm/s.
In embodiments of the present invention, the diameter of the fibers may be adjusted by adjusting the injection rate and the withdrawal rate.
In some embodiments of the invention, normal temperature thawing is adopted for thawing, the thawing time is 0.5-5 min, and the thawing is rapid, thereby greatly improving the gel fiber preparation efficiency. The normal temperature is defined to cover a temperature range of 5-30 deg.c, such as thawing in an environment conforming to the temperature, such as thawing at room temperature of 15-25 deg.c, unless specified otherwise.
In some embodiments of the invention, the time of cold forming in the condensing bath is from 0.5min to 15min, preferably from 1min to 5min.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the method for preparing the high elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber comprises: preparing a salt-soluble and freezing-resistant inorganic salt aqueous solution, adding polyvinyl alcohol, stirring and uniformly mixing, and then defoaming to obtain a polyvinyl alcohol gel precursor solution; and (3) uniformly extruding the polyvinyl alcohol gel solution to a condensing bath for cold forming, uniformly pulling out the formed product, thawing, and finally winding and collecting. The speed of the winding is 0.1mm/s to 150mm/s. In some embodiments of the invention, the polyvinyl alcohol may be pre-swollen, stirred at elevated temperature, and the process may be operated in a manner conventional in the art. The defoaming mode can be ultrasonic, vacuum or static.
In a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided a transparent physical gel fiber prepared by the preparation method described in the first aspect. The microstructure of the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel is in a homogeneous state, has flexibility and high transparency, overcomes the defects of low flexibility and poor transparency caused by a traditional physical gel heterogeneous structure, ensures that the elongation at break of the obtained fiber can reach 1200%, the light transmittance is as high as 90%, the water content is only lost by 10% within 7 days to be constant, and simultaneously has adhesiveness, ion conductivity and excellent light conductivity, and the freezing resistance temperature reaches minus 60 ℃.
In addition, the transparent physical gel fiber can be used for preparing the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel functional fiber by further compounding functional particles (such as graphene, carbon nano tubes, MXene and the like), and the preparation method of the gel functional fiber mainly comprises the steps of adding the functional particles into the prepared polyvinyl alcohol gel precursor liquid or adding the functional particles in the process of preparing the polyvinyl alcohol gel precursor liquid (such as after adding the polyvinyl alcohol), stirring uniformly, then carrying out defoaming treatment, then carrying out uniform-speed extrusion to a condensing bath for freezing molding, and uniformly pulling out and thawing a molded product to obtain the transparent high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel functional fiber. In some embodiments of the present invention, the resulting functional fibers have good overall properties, and the addition of the composite functional particles can further improve the conductivity of the fibers, but the transparency is somewhat reduced, but still good.
In a third aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides the use of the transparent physical gel fiber described in the second aspect in the field of flexible sensing materials, gel fiber optical fiber core materials, such as skin-like sensors, soft robots, biomedical and the like, in particular in the field of flexible materials where there is a need for properties of transparency, adhesion, high elasticity, light conduction and the like.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:

In addition, according to the method provided by the invention, the diameter and mechanical properties of the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber can be effectively regulated and controlled only by regulating and controlling the concentration of the polyvinyl alcohol, the salt solubility, the content of the antifreeze inorganic salt, the pushing speed and pulling speed of the injection device and the aperture of the injection device.
In addition, the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber prepared by the method has the excellent performances of high elasticity, high transparency, high ductility, water retention, adhesiveness, freezing resistance, ion conductivity, light conductivity and the like, and the application of the polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber in the fields of flexible sensing materials and gel fiber optical fiber core layer materials is further expanded.
Drawings
The accompanying drawings, which are included to provide a further understanding of the invention and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments of the invention and together with the description serve to explain the invention. Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the attached drawing figures, wherein:
fig. 1: example 1 microscopic images of longitudinal section (a) and cross section (B) of a highly elastic polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber, from which it is seen that the microstructure of the fiber material of example 1 exhibits a homogeneous state and exhibits flexibility and high transparency.
Fig. 2: example 2 microscopic images of the longitudinal section (a) and the cross section (B) of the highly elastic polyvinyl alcohol gel fiber, it is understood from the images that the microstructure of the fiber material of example 2 exhibits a homogeneous state and exhibits flexibility and high transparency, and the difference is mainly in the diameter of the fiber as compared with the fiber of example 1.
Fig. 3: mechanical stretching curves of the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel fibers obtained in examples 1 and 4. It can be seen from the curves that both materials are ductile materials that are capable of greater deformation without fracture when under tension, and that both materials have similar tensile strength and fracture strain, as well as similar toughness, but example 1 has a lower elastic modulus and yield strength than example 4. Wherein a higher modulus of elasticity means a higher stiffness of the material, i.e. a higher stress required per unit strain, the more difficult the material is to be stretched or compressed. The lower the modulus of elasticity, the higher the compliance of the material, i.e., the greater the strain developed under a unit stress, the more easily the material is stretched or compressed. The greater the yield strength, the lower the plastic deformability of the material, i.e. the greater the maximum stress that can be sustained before the yield point is reached, the more difficult the material is to permanently deform. The smaller the yield strength, the higher the plastic deformability of the material, i.e. the smaller the maximum stress that can be sustained before reaching the yield point, the more easily the material is permanently deformed.
Fig. 4: mechanical stretching curves of the high-elasticity polyvinyl alcohol gel fibers obtained in example 1 and comparative example 1. The material of comparative example 1 reached maximum stress when the strain reached about 200%, then dropped rapidly, which indicated that the material was brittle and easily broken after being stretched to some extent, compared to the material of example 1, which reached maximum stress when the strain reached about 1200%, then dropped slowly, which indicated that the material had good toughness, and was able to withstand greater stretching without breaking, and had good deformability.
