Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain negative ion generating fibers generating negative ions by friction with skin or heating capable of preventing aging and activating metabolism of skin, and negative ion generating cotton and fabrics using the fibers. SOLUTION: A synthetic resin filament is obtained by mixing about 2% of tourmaline (an ore mainly comprising SiO2 , Al2 O3 , B2 O3 , Fe2 O3 , CaO, Na2 O, K2 O), which is charged negatively by friction or heating, granulated into fine powders having 0.5 to 1.2 μm of particle size, with a synthetic resin, and spinning synthetic fibers by a spinning machine. A cotton is obtained from the filaments after cutting them into short fibers of about 40 mm length, and fabrics are obtained from base filaments comprising several tens of the filaments as a bundle using a plain knitting machine or a circular knitting machine to give knitted fabrics (2) having continued loop 3 or plain fabrics.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a negative ion generating fiber capable of preventing skin cells from aging and activating metabolism by generating negative ions due to friction or heating with the skin, a negative ion generating cotton using the fibers, It is related to a negative ion generating fabric.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, synthetic fibers are liable to generate static electricity in terms of physical properties. Therefore, development of a technique of mixing an antistatic agent into a raw material or coating an antistatic agent has been mainly performed, and friction and heating have been developed. Synthetic fibers that generate negative ions are used only for special purposes,
Generally, attention was low. The purpose is to activate the cell metabolism by neutralizing the positively charged surface of the skin, where the futon and clothing fabric itself are negatively charged, and as a result, the inner surface is negatively charged. Does not exist.

[0003]

The present invention focuses on the fact that positive ions have a function of declining life support activities, and negative ions have a function of actively promoting life sustaining activities. The purpose is to develop a fiber product in which negative ions are positively generated by friction or heating between the fabric knitted or woven as a raw yarn and a human body.

[0004]

Means for Solving the Problems Negative ion or negative electricity makes the blood alkaline and enhances the metabolism of the living body, activates the physiological action of the tissue and promotes the natural healing power. If you go to bed with the outer skin (side) covered and sewn with a fabric that generates negative ions when you go to bed, when you roll over unconsciously, the friction between the cotton will generate negative ions, and you will have a negative effect on your body while sleeping. It can provide ions and can prevent skin cells from aging and activate metabolism.

[0005] Further, since the negative ion generating fiber or fabric is used for a filter portion of an air purifier or the like to generate negative ions by friction or heating of the air and the air, the air passing therethrough naturally becomes negative. It can be charged and create an atmosphere like a forest bathing in the room, which can contribute to health promotion.

In general, positive ions and negative ions are present as ions, and their effects on living organisms have opposite functions. Pluson is known to have a negative effect on life support activities, while negative ions are known to have a positive effect on promoting positive activity.Additionally, when positive ions pass through the lattice that generated negative ions, they lose their charge and no positive ions are detected. It is known. Therefore, when using the negative ion-generating cotton or fabric of the present application to directly apply negative ions to the skin or indirectly by breathing to the human body,
Negative ions emit electrons in the blood and react with hydrogen ions and dissolved oxygen in the blood to form water as shown in the following formula.

Embedded image In this way, hydrogen ions in the blood are consumed and the blood becomes alkaline. Negative ions have the effect of making acidic blood alkaline, so that skin cells are activated and watery and healthy skin can be created. The electron density of the substance required for the action is increased, the action of the cells of the tissue and the chemical reaction of the substance are stabilized, the blood becomes alkaline, the metabolism is enhanced, the oxidation of life rest is prevented, and the immunity is strengthened The weakened cells can take in nutrients and oxygen enough, and new cells can increase and exert the effect of rejuvenating the skin.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings.

The present invention provides tourmaline (SiO ₂ , Al ₂ O ₃ , B ₂ O ₃ , Fe ₂ O) which is negatively charged by friction.
_{3, CaO,} Na 2 O, polyester obtained by grinding the ore) mainly containing _{K 2} O to a fine powder of 0.5~1.2μ position, nylon, synthetic resin material such as polypropylene or polyvinyl chloride 1 The mixture of 0.5 to 2% is put on a spinning machine. For example, in the production of cotton (A), the filament (1) of about 10 denier is cut into a length of 40 mm to produce short fibers (1 ′), and in the production of cloth, depending on the size of the tourmaline particles, Alternatively, depending on the purpose of use, when the tourmaline particles are 1.2 μm, 30 filaments (1) having a thickness of 8 deniers are collectively twisted, and two more filaments are combined and twisted ( Depending on the purpose of use, for example, in the case of 0.8μ fine particles obtained by further pulverizing tourmaline, 48 3-denier fine filaments are twisted together to form a thin dough for fabric. The raw yarn (2) is adjusted, and using these raw yarns, a so-called knitted fabric (B) in which a loop (3) is continuous using a flat knitting machine or a circular knitting machine is knitted or woven (C) by a loom. Is woven.

[0009]

The anion-generating fiber of the present invention is obtained by mixing tourmaline ore into fine particles of about 0.5 to 1.5 μm in a synthetic resin raw material and spinning it. In addition, it is supple even if a large amount of mineral substances such as tourmaline are mixed in. Negative ions are generated in the cotton fiber by the influence of tourmaline due to the friction caused by the movement. In addition, the atmosphere is polluted by harmful substances discharged from factories and exhaust gas from automobiles.If the negative ion generating fiber or fabric of the present invention is used for a filter of an air purifier, the same role as a general filter can be obtained. At the same time, it electrically catches particulate harmful substances that cannot be caught by a simple filter, and the air that has passed through this filter is negatively charged like a so-called phytoncide, so you can get the same effect as a forest bath while staying at home It has many excellent features such as the ability to
