Abstract:

In view of the problem that organic-inorganic hybrid fluorine-free water-repellant finishing agents are not environmental friendly due to organic solvent, the long-chain alkyl silane modified sol (H-NPs) emulsion and polysiloxane modified waterborne polyurethane(SiWPU) emulsion were combined to prepare fully aqueous organic-inorganic hybrid fluorine-free water-repellant finishing agents. The effects of organic/inorganic component ratio in organic-inorganic hybrid fluorine-free water-repellant finishing agents were studied, and the influences of baking time and temperature on the property of finished polyester/cotton fabric were also discussed in detail. Micro-nano rough structures on the surface of finished polyester/cotton fabric were observed by SEM, and its application performance was also investigated. The results reveal that the water contact angle on the surface of the finished fabric gradually increases with the increase of H-NPs mass fraction, reaching the maximum value of (138 ± 2.0)° when H-NPs mass fraction is 27.5%. For the same baking time, the finished fabric baked at 180 ℃ demonstrates a higher water contact angles compared with that baked at 150 ℃. Additionaly, the water contact angle of the finished fabric increases gradually with baking time, with the optimal baking time determined to be 5 min. The convex structure of micro/nano scale is also observed on the surface of finished fabric, significantly verifing the existence of micro/nano rough structure.
