Visual color development method of non-woven fabric with antimicrobial function
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of functional non-woven fabric production, and particularly relates to a method for developing color of an antimicrobial non-woven fabric with a visual color developing function.
Background
With the frequent occurrence of public health events, particularly the SARS event in 2003 and the novel pneumonia in 2020, the pursuit of safer and more comfortable living environment and the risk of microbial infection become a long-term contradiction, and consumers have an increasing demand for nonwoven fabric products with microbial cleaning performance to meet their requirements for clean and healthy life. Nonwoven fabrics are commonly used in the manufacture of disposable or non-disposable products such as diapers, wet wipes, and feminine hygiene products, and are generally produced from natural materials such as petrochemical materials like polyolefins, polyesters, polylactic acids, rayon, and the like, or cotton fibers.
Because of the invisible, untouched, and inaudible characteristics of the antimicrobial professional field, consumers tend to have low confidence in purchasing antimicrobial nonwoven articles, limiting the applications of antimicrobial nonwoven articles. In addition, because the biocide is susceptible to storage and transportation during the production of the antimicrobial article, the problem of the antimicrobial article failing to perform is often encountered. To verify that the processed nonwoven fabric still has antimicrobial properties, a color development technique using an antimicrobial material can be used. The prior art antimicrobial material coloration techniques often involve two approaches: 1) the color indicator is added into the non-woven fabric, but the indicator and the biocide have no relevance, such as adding starch on the non-woven fabric product, and additionally arranging iodine as the indicator. The method can visually develop color on the non-woven fabric product for consumers, but can not indicate the concentration of the biocide on the non-woven fabric, can not judge the antimicrobial performance of the non-woven fabric, and is a color development technology with misleading; 2) the cationic developer of the antimicrobial material is provided alone, but the color development technique is susceptible to interference from the nonwoven fabric. Such as acid-base residues or changes in hydrophilicity of the nonwoven, can lead to coloration without antimicrobial materials, while in some cases, nonwovens with antimicrobial properties do not. In addition, the conventional general color indicator is a color developer obtained by a dissolution method, and has the defects of incapability of developing color immediately after dropping on a non-woven fabric, unstable color development, no detailed contrast between antibacterial and non-antibacterial, and the like.
