Abstract
Description
- This application claims priority to Taiwan Application Serial Number 106131051, filed Sep. 11, 2017, which is herein incorporated by reference.
- The present disclosure relates to a
nylon 6 fiber and a preparation method thereof. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to anylon 6 fiber having a deodorizing function and a preparation method thereof. - Textiles made from processes of the textile industry are porous materials which can absorb sweat, sebum and other wastes discharged thereof when worn by a user, and the aforementioned wastes will be further decomposed and utilized by bacteria, fungus and other microorganisms hosted on the surface of the human body. However, during the process of microbial decomposition and utilization of the wastes, lots of byproducts will be produced and accompanied with unpleasant odors. It has not only health concerns but also a possibility to affect the interpersonal relationships due to the unpleasant odors. Therefore, because the health awareness and the living standard are both improved in the modern society, demands for woven materials with antibacterial and deodorizing properties are rapidly increasing.
- Currently, antibacterial and deodorizing fibers are obtained mainly by modifying the chemical or physical properties of fibers, or the antibacterial agents will be coated on the fibers so as to suppress the growth of microorganisms, so that the demands for preventing the generation of the unpleasant odors can be satisfied. In the aforementioned manufacturing methods, mixing the antibacterial agents with a mother liquor of the fiber and then for spinning is the most widely used and relatively simple method.
- In the selection of antibacterial agents, the silver-based antibacterial agents are commonly used in the conventional antibacterial and deodorizing fibers, wherein the antibacterial agents with nano-silver particles are the most popular. The nano-silver particles have high stability and can be added into the mother liquor of the fiber and then made into antibacterial fibers by spinning or other manufacturing methods. However, because the surface activity of the nano-silver particles is high, the nano-silver particles is easy to aggregate in the fiber material and then form a polymer in the textile process due to the high temperature, so that an additional dispersing agent is need to add into the fiber mother liquor so as to enhance the dispersal activity of the nano-silver particles. Thus, it is not only increasing the manufacturing cost of the antibacterial textiles, but also increasing the difficulties of the process thereof.
- In order to solve the aforementioned problems, there is an antibacterial and deodorizing fiber uses a non-silver antibacterial agent as an antibacterial and deodorizing additive, for example, mixing a p-tolyl-diiodomethylhydrazine having a bactericidal function with a plastic masterbatch so as to form an antibacterial fiber, or using titanium dioxide, tourmaline powder and bamboo charcoal as additives for antibacterial and deodorizing functions. However, in the present market, deodorizing demands of the textiles with deodorizing functions are always achieved by their antibacterial ability. Because the variety of microorganisms and odors, different antibacterial agents on different microorganisms are also with different antibacterial effects. Furthermore, although the growth of bacteria can be inhibited by the textile with antibacterial ability, it can only achieve the odor prevention effect without the odor removal effect.
- Therefore, how to develop an antibacterial fiber with deodorizing functions so as to improve the application efficiency and the scope of use thereof has become the major goal of related industry.
- According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a preparation method of a deodorizing
nylon 6 fiber including providing a fabricating step of deodorizingnylon 6 chips and performing a spinning step. The fabricating step includes the following steps. A mixing step is performed, wherein a porous powder of citrate is mixed with a caprolactam powder so as to obtain a raw material of a deodorizing chip, wherein a weight ratio of the porous powder of citrate ranges from 2% to 6% based on a weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%, and a weight ratio of the caprolactam powder ranges from 94% to 98% based on the weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%. A nano-grinding step is performed, wherein the raw material of the deodorizing chip is ground so as to obtain a size mixture of a deodorizingnylon 6, and an average diameter of the size mixture of the deodorizingnylon 6 ranges from 100 nm to 200 nm. A granulated polymerizing step is performed, wherein the size mixture of the deodorizingnylon 6 is polymerized so as to obtain the deodorizingnylon 6 chips. A viscosity adjusting step is performed, wherein a relative viscosity of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is adjusted to a range from 2.20 mPa·s to 2.30 mPa·s. A water content adjusting step is performed, wherein a water content ratio of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is adjusted to a range from 350 ppm to 550 ppm. The spinning step includes the following steps. A spinning material is provided, wherein the spinning material includes the deodorizingnylon 6 chips performed the viscosity adjusting step and the water content adjusting step. A melt fluxing step is performed, wherein the spinning material is spun under a temperature ranging from 255° C. to 265° C. so as to obtain the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber. - According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a deodorizing
nylon 6 fiber is made by the preparation method according to the aforementioned aspect, wherein a denier per filament of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber ranges from 0.5 dpf to 6 dpf, and a strength of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber ranges from 3.0 g/d to 6.8 g/d. - The present disclosure can be more fully understood by reading the following detailed description of the embodiment, with reference made to the accompanying drawings as follows:
-
FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a preparation method of a deodorizingnylon 6 fiber according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. -
FIG. 2 is a flow chart ofStep 300 of another embodiment of the present disclosure. -
FIG. 3 is a schematic view of a spinning apparatus used inStep 300 ofFIG. 2 . - Please refer to
FIG. 1 , which is a flow chart of apreparation method 100 of a deodorizingnylon 6 fiber according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Thepreparation method 100 of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber includesStep 200 andStep 300. - In
Step 200, a fabricating step of deodorizingnylon 6 chips is provided, andStep 200 includesStep 210,Step 220,Step 230,Step 240 andStep 250. - In
Step 210, a mixing step is performed, wherein a porous powder of citrate is mixed with a caprolactam powder so as to obtain a raw material of a deodorizing chip. A weight ratio of the porous powder of citrate ranges from 2% to 6% based on a weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%, and a weight ratio of the caprolactam powder ranges from 94% to 98% based on the weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%. More preferably, the weight ratio of the porous powder of citrate is 5% based on the weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%, the weight ratio of the caprolactam powder is 95% based on the weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%, and the aforementioned caprolactam powder can be a commercially available product. - In
Step 220, a nano-grinding step is performed, wherein the raw material of the deodorizing chip is ground so as to obtain a size mixture of a deodorizingnylon 6, and an average diameter of the size mixture of the deodorizingnylon 6 ranges from 100 nm to 200 nm. The porous powder of citrate and the caprolactam powder can be refined into the size mixture in nanometer level in the nano-grinding step so as to improve the dispersibility of the porous powder of citrate in the caprolactam powder, so that the deodorizing ability of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber can be further enhanced. Furthermore, the pressure increasing condition of the size mixture can be effectively stabilized when the average diameter of the size mixture of the deodorizingnylon 6 ranges from 100 nm to 200 nm. - In
Step 230, a granulated polymerizing step is performed, wherein the size mixture of the deodorizingnylon 6 is polymerized so as to obtain the deodorizingnylon 6 chips, and the aforementioned deodorizingnylon 6 chips can be further physically modified so as to use in the following spinning processes. - In
Step 240, a viscosity adjusting step is performed, wherein a relative viscosity of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is adjusted to a range from 2.20 mPa·s to 2.30 mPa·s. When the relative viscosity of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is greater than 3.0 mPa·s, the flow rate of the spinning liquid is slow thereby. As a result, the residence time of the spinning liquid in the manifold is prolonged, so that it is unfavorable for spinning. When the relative viscosity of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is less than 2.2 mPa·s, the strength of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber made by the spinning liquid is low. Therefore, a relatively stable spinning effect can be obtained when the relative viscosity of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is between 2.20 mPa·s to 2.30 mPa·s. - In
Step 250, a water content adjusting step is performed, wherein a water content ratio of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips is adjusted to a range from 350 ppm to 550 ppm. Therefore, a proper water content ratio of the deodorizingnylon 6 chips can be obtained by adjusting the water content thereof, so that better physical spinning properties can be obtained, and the probability of breaking or degrading of the deodorizingnylon 6 fiber can be reduced. - In
Step 300, a spinning step is performed, andStep 300 includesStep 310 andStep 320. - In
Step 310, a spinning material is provided, wherein the spinning material includes thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips performed the viscosity adjusting step (that is, Step 240) and the water content adjusting step (that is, Step 250). Furthermore, the spinning material can further include a powder of titanium dioxide, and a weight ratio of the powder of titanium dioxide is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 7.5 based on the weight ratio of thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips as 100%. The aforementioned powder of titanium dioxide is a conventional matting agent, thus a specification thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber made by thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips according to the present disclosure can be semi-dull or full-dull by adding titanium dioxide into the spinning material. Therefore, the applications of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber of the present disclosure can be further expanded. - In
Step 320, a melt fluxing step is performed, wherein the spinning material is spun under a temperature ranging from 255° C. to 265° C. so as to obtain adeodorizing nylon 6 fiber. - Please refer to
FIG. 2 , which is a flow chart ofStep 300 of another embodiment of the present disclosure. In addition toStep 310 andStep 320,Step 300 further includesStep 330,Step 340,Step 350 andStep 360. - In
Step 330, a fiber extracting step is performed. In detail, the spinning material is melted inStep 320 so as to obtain a spinning liquid, and the fiber extracting step is for extracting the spinning liquid so as to obtain a nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6. A difference between a relative viscosity of the nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 and the relative viscosity of thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips performedStep 240 is ΔRV, wherein the relative viscosity of the nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is RV1, the relative viscosity of thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips performedStep 240 is RV2, and ΔRV is the difference between RV1 and RV2 (That is, ΔRV=RV1−RV2.), and the following condition can be satisfied: 0<ΔRV<0.1. Therefore, it is favorable to spin at a high speed, and the spinning condition of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber is the best. - In
Step 340, a cooling step is performed, wherein the cooling step can be performed under a temperature ranging from 18° C. to 22° C. and then the nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is solidified so as to form a solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6. When the temperature is less than 18° C., the cooling rate of the nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is too fast, thus the arrangement of caprolactam monomers will be affected, so that the strength of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber is not good as expected. When the temperature is greater than 22° C., the cooling of the nascent fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is insufficient, thus the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is not easy to be drawn in the following spinning processes, and the spinning efficiency will be greatly reduced. - In
Step 350, a drawing step is performed, wherein the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is drawn with a draw ratio ranging from 1.2% to 1.5%. The draw ratio is a ratio of an output speed to an input speed of the drawing step. When the draw ratio is less than 1.2%, the probability of the fiber break is increased, and when the draw ratio is greater than 1.5%, the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is easy to be drawn excessively and tends to break. Furthermore, Step 350 can further includeStep 351. InStep 351, a heating step is performed, wherein the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is heat set under a temperature ranging from 145° C. to 200° C. When the temperature is excessively high, the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 will shake vigorously on the godet roller assembly. Accordingly, the tension is too small, and it is unfavorable for spinning. When the temperature is excessively low, the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is heat set insufficiently. Accordingly, the stress in the molecular chain is increased, and it is unfavorable to form a spinning cake. - In
Step 360, a winding step is performed, wherein the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 performed the heating step is wound in a speed ranging from 3200 m/min to 4800 m/min, and a physical property of the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6, such as a strength or an elongation is changed by the drawing step (that is, Step 350) and the winding step (that is, Step 360), so that the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is transformed into thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber which is suitable for the following spinning processes. - Please refer to
FIG. 3 , which is a schematic view of aspinning apparatus 500 used inStep 300 inFIG. 2 .

Step 310, thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips performed the viscosity adjusting step (that is, Step 240) and the water content adjusting step (that is, Step 250) and a powder of titanium dioxide are added into thefeeding tank 510 and then transmitted into theextruder 530. - In
Step 320, thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips and the powder of titanium dioxide are melted and fluxed in theextruder 530 under a temperature ranging from 255° C. to 265° C. so as to form a spinning liquid. Next, the spinning liquid is pressed out of theextruder 530 by theservo motor 520 so that the spinning liquid will enter the manifold 540, wherein a temperature of the manifold 540 ranges from 260° C. to 270° C. so as to prevent the spinning liquid from cooling down and solidifying in the manifold 540 before the spinning liquid enters thespinning beam 550. - In
Step 330, the spinning liquid in thespinning beam 550 is distributed by a metering pump (not shown) to each spinneret (not shown) via tubes so as to form the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6, wherein a temperature of thespinning beam 550 is controlled in a range from 260° C. to 270° C. Furthermore, there is a windless zone (not shown) between thespinning beam 550 and thecooling device 560, and the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 can be cooled down slowly in the windless zone so as to prevent the crystallization of fibers from affecting by external forces such as air flow, so that the strength of the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 can be further enhanced. - In
Step 340, the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is cooled by thecooling device 560, wherein a cooling gas is provided by thecooling device 560, and a temperature of the cooling gas ranges from 18° C. to 22° C. so as to cool and solidify the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 and then form the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6. Furthermore, the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 are bundled and oiled via an oiling nozzle (not shown) or an oiling roll (not shown) so that the nascent fiber A of thedeodorizing nylon 6 can be bundled and lubricated. - In
Step 350, the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is drawn and performedStep 351 by thedraw device 570 so as to heat set the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6. As shown inFIG. 3 , thedraw device 570 includes a firstgodet roller assembly 571, a secondgodet roller assembly 572 and a thirdgodet roller assembly 573, wherein at least one of the firstgodet roller assembly 571, the secondgodet roller assembly 572 and the thirdgodet roller assembly 573 has a heating function, so that the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 can be heat set, and the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 can be extended in multiple stages so as to change the physical properties such as a strength or an elongation. - In
Step 360, the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 performedStep 350 can be wound on a paper tube in a speed ranging from 3200 m/min to 4800 m/min by the windingdevice 580 so as to form a spinning cake. After performingStep 350 andStep 360, the physical property of the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 has been changed, and the solidified fiber of thedeodorizing nylon 6 is transformed into thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber which is suitable for the following spinning processes. - The
deodorizing nylon 6 fiber of the present disclosure is made by thepreparation method 100 of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber, wherein a denier per filament of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber ranges from 0.5 dpf to 6 dpf, a strength of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber ranges from 3.0 g/d to 6.8 g/d, and an extensibility of thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber ranges from 40% to 50%. Thedeodorizing nylon 6 fiber of the present disclosure has an excellent deodorizing ability and can be widely used in related fields. - In the present experiment, the size distribution and the pressure increasing condition of the porous powder of citrate and the caprolactam powder of the size mixture of the
deodorizing nylon 6 performed the nano-grinding step are analyzed so as to evaluate the dispersibility of the nanoparticles. - In the test of the size distribution, the average particle size and the particle size distribution of the size mixture of the

In the pressure increasing test, thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips are melted, and then the melt of thedeodorizing nylon 6 chips is injected into a single screw screen press equipped with a 25μ filter so as to observe the pressure change thereof. - The detailed data of the average particle size and the dispersibility of the porous powder of citrate mixed with different percentage of the caprolactam powder and then performed nano-ground are shown in Table 1. In Example 1 (Em 1), a weight ratio of the porous powder of citrate is 3% and a weight ratio of the caprolactam powder is 97% based on a weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%. In Example 2, a weight ratio of the porous powder of citrate is 5% and a weight ratio of the caprolactam powder is 95% based on a weight ratio of the raw material of the deodorizing chip as 100%. Furthermore, the present experiment further includes comparative examples.

Moreover, in the aforementioned Examples 1-2 and Comparative Examples 1-2, the size mixtures of the
deodorizing nylon 6 of Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 1 are performed the nano-grinding step, respectively, and the size mixture of Comparative Example 2 is not performed the nano-grinding step so as to evaluate the effects of the nano-grinding step to the average particle size and the dispersibility of the size mixture of thedeodorizing nylon 6.

It shows that the porous powder of citrate and the caprolactam powder can be ground effectively by the nano-grinding step, and the average particle size of the size mixture of the
deodorizing nylon 6 thereof can fall between 100 nm to 200 nm so as to enhance the dispersibility of the porous powder of citrate and the caprolactam powder. - In the aspect of dispersibility, the dispersibility of the size mixture of the
deodorizing nylon 6 of Example 2 is best, the dispersibility of Example 1 is also good, and there is no precipitation of the size mixtures of thedeodorizing nylon 6 of Example 1 and Example 2 after being stood for five minutes.
