  • a dialdehyde molecule e.g., glyoxal
  • This SMM is capable of reacting with hydroxyl groups on neighboring cellulosic fibers (e.g., cotton, rayon, and the like) and crosslinking them.
  • it is important to impart cohesive nature to a bundle of staple fibers, such as when the staple yarn contains multitude of water absorbing fibers (e.g., cotton). When wet, such yarns can reduce strength of the fabric. Crosslinking improves wet strength of such yarns and thereby the fabric.

  • an anchor such as a multifunctional epoxy molecule (e.g., SU8).
  • the amine and epoxy react to form an SMM.

  • the amount of an SMM in a staple fiber can vary.
  • the SMM concentration is 5 to 75% by weight, including all 0.1% values and ranges therebetween.
  • anchor molecules are polymeric or oligomeric molecules that have reactive functional groups. These may be water insoluble polymers such as polyethylene with functional groups such as, for example, amines, epoxy, anhydride, isocyanate, hydroxyl, carboxyl, or acid chloride.
  • the anchor molecule also could be polyolefins, polyesters, polyamides, styrenics, vinyl polymers, or copolymers of these entities functionalized with any of the above functional groups or other functional groups.
  • the surface modifying additives may be derivatives of water soluble polymers such as polyethylene oxide, which contain functional groups that are reactive with the groups present on the anchor.
  • Such pairings include but are not limited to epoxy-amine, epoxy-anhydride, anhydride-hydroxyl, anhydride-amine, amine-isocyanate, hydroxyl-isocyanate, or acid chloride-amine.
  • the anchor may be made of the same chemical structure as the matrix while the surface modifying entity may be chemically different from the matrix.
  • additives are added to a melt spinning process, the result of which is a staple fiber that becomes the carrier of an SMM.
  • Such carrier staple fibers are then blended with other staples to create a yarn which can then be subjected an external stimuli to enable the release of the SMM and thereby modify properties of the yarn that is blended with the carrier.
  • additives include chemically inert polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene. These additives can be processed with functional molecules such as, but not limited to amines, epoxides, hydroxyls, and anhydrides.
  • the following embodiments describe hydrophobic modification of a nylon/cotton staple blended yarn and, after blending, fabric.
  • the nylon/cotton blend is hereafter referred to as NyCo.
  • NyCo blends are created by mixing staple fibers of nylon and cotton in various ratios.

  • the amount of cotton is 50% and the amount of nylon is 50%. Because both cotton and nylon are not particularly hydrophobic, the resulting blend is very hygroscopic.
  • a polyolefin e.g., such as, but not limited to LLDPE, LDPE, HDPE, or polypropylene
  • an epoxidized siloxane molecule such as those available by Siltech Corp.
  • the mixture is then melt extruded into staple fibers.
  • the staple fibers produced contain unreacted silicone-epoxide molecules.
  • NyCo in various proportions
  • a yarn containing SMM can be made.
  • the resulting fabric contains unreacted silicone-epoxides contained within the carrier.
  • the silicone-epoxides are released into the surrounding blend.
  • the epoxide group can react with the end groups of the nylon staples contained in the yarn thereby modifying the surface of the yarn and thereby the fabric.
  • Temperatures can range from 90° C. to 200° C. for polyolefin extrusions. When the fabric containing these staples is subjected to these temperature ranges, the softening of the staples occurs. Concentration ranges of SMM can be anywhere from 5% to 75% by weight including all 0.1% values and ranges therebetween.
  • an SMM has an amine group, an anhydride group, an acid chloride group, a carboxyl group, and/or other such reactive groups capable of reacting with either the end groups of the nylon staple or the hydroxyl functionalities of the cellulose staple contained within the yarn.
  • an anchored SMM can be created with reaction between two different groups.
  • the SMM can be created to make a surface more hydrophilic by combining hydrophobic blocks and hydrophilic blocks into a surface modifying additive. Enough driving force can be generated by the hydrophobic blocks to cause surface segregation of the surface modifying additive such that the attached hydrophilic blocks are brought to the interface as well.
  • hydrophobic blocks e.g., hydrophobic fluorinated groups such as those present in polytetrafluoroethylene (PTI-B)
  • PTI-B polytetrafluoroethylene
  • hydrophilic surface modifying additive capable of surface segregation and transforming the surface of a hydrophobic polymer into a wettable surface.
  • This process works with molecules that have fluorine content in the range of approximately 15% to 46%.
  • This process also may work with molecules containing fluorinated species with % F in a range of approximately 5% to 75%.
  • the higher % F containing molecules would be less hydrophilic than the molecules containing lower % F.
  • the fluorine content or % F is measured in weight/weight (w/w). For example, more than 60% F containing molecules would make the surface segregation higher.
  • fluorinated polyetherdiols are used as surface modifying additives. These polymers are made of hydrophilic backbones consisting of ethylene oxide segments and hydrophobic sidechains. The polymer intermediates have end hydroxyl groups which can be reacted with suitable anchors.
  • a maleated polypropylene molecule e.g., GR204 Amplify from Dow
  • the polyether diols e.g., PolyFox PF-7002
  • the polypropylene anchor is chemically compatible with the polyolefin backbone while the polyetherdiol (e.g., PolyFox) additive is capable of surface segregation.
  • reactive polyethers e.g., Jeffamine molecules (Huntsman)
  • carboxy e.g., carboxylic acid
  • anhydride functionalized fluorinated compounds e.g., trifluoroacetic anhydride or dodecafluoroheptanoyl chloride

  • hydrophilic monomers e.g., hydroxypropylmethacrylate
  • polymerizable monomers e.g., vinyl monomers
  • fluorinated groups e.g., 2-(perfluorohexyl)ethyl acrylate
  • the carrier may be mixed with an active ingredient such as a fragrance, antibacterial substance, antiperspirant substance, UV absorbing substance, insecticidal substance, insect repellent substance, fungicidal substance, medicinal substance, other types of substances, or combination thereof.
  • the carrier may be a polymer that is capable of carrying these active molecules at high concentrations. When such staples are mixed with NyCo staples or other staples, the resulting yarn and fabric would then contain these active molecules.
  • the active ingredients may be medicinal in nature.
  • a staple yarn containing carrier staple fibers can be loaded with coagulants, anti-coagulants, blood thinners, thrombogenic moieties/groups, analgesics, anti-inflammation agents, etc.

  • the yarns may also contain carrier staple fibers that are made with waxes that are capable of melting at body temperatures but are solid below body temperatures. Such waxes would them melt when such fabric made of wax containing yarn is applied to a part of the body.
  • the melted wax would then migrate out of the bandage and form a non-sticking layer such that the bandage could be easily removed without reinjuring the wound to which it was applied.
  • the yarns may also contain an insect-repellant (e.g., DEET (N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide) or another insect-repellant).
  • an insect-repellant e.g., DEET (N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide) or another insect-repellant.
  • the carrier staple that contains the insect repellant e.g., DEET
