Background
Silk is widely used in high-end clothing and household textiles because of its excellent breathability, skin-friendly and moisture absorption properties, as well as its smooth and soft properties. However, common silks are flammable and burn rapidly, threatening the safety of the user. The flammability of silk itself limits its potential and safety. The flame retardant silk fabric can enhance fire safety while maintaining its aesthetic appearance, making it an ideal choice for luxurious home textiles and high-end fashion. In addition, since the protein structure of silk provides a favorable environment for bacterial growth, it has poor antibacterial performance, which further highlights the need for multifunctional silk fabrics that integrate flame retardancy and other functions.
Halogen-containing compounds have been widely used for their excellent flame retardant properties, but are eventually limited or disabled due to their toxicity, bioaccumulation and environmental pollution problems. Phosphorus-based flame retardants commonly used in the market may release formaldehyde during use. In addition, phosphorus accumulation in natural environments may also cause eutrophication of lakes and other bodies of water, not only destroying the aquatic ecosystem, but also constituting a long-term threat to the overall environment. Because of these serious problems, the textile flame retardant field is actively exploring new alternatives, and phosphorus and halogen-independent compounds have become the dominant trend of future development. This transition aims at balancing the requirements of textile flame retardant properties and environmental protection as well as human health, pushing the textile industry to develop towards a more green and safer direction.
In recent years, natural compounds and derivatives thereof have become important research hotspots as environmental protection textile flame retardants. Biomolecules, such as biomass-based proteins, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), have been used as sustainable flame retardant coatings. The natural polyphenol is the most abundant and widely distributed bioactive molecule in plants, and has the advantages of low cost, no toxicity, safety, reproducibility and the like. For example, by adsorbing bioflavonoids and then mordant-dyeing with metal salts, the resulting composite exhibits flame retardant properties [Flavonoids-metal salts combination:A facile and efficient route for enhancing the flame retardancy of silk,Ind.Crops Prod.130(2019)580-591.]. on silk fabrics, however, the treated fabrics perform poorly in terms of wash fastness due to non-covalent deposition of biomacromolecules on the surface.
Gallic Acid (GA) is a widely existing natural polyphenol with a phenolic hydroxyl structure, and endows the natural polyphenol with various functions of antibiosis, antioxidation, antivirus, anti-inflammatory and the like. The gallic acid has low cost and high reactivity, so that the gallic acid can be widely applied to the functional modification of materials. In addition, GA has good flame retardancy and crosslinking properties. For example, two modified gallic acids (GAP and GAN) have been prepared as reactive flame retardants and cross-linking agents for the production of flame retardant polyurethane elastomers (PUEs). The GAP and GAN introduced significantly improves the coke yield and LOI values of the PUE [Modified gallic acids as both reactive flame retardants and cross-linkers for the fabrication of flame-retardant polyurethane elastomers,ChemistrySelect 8(39)(2023)e202302496].
Amino-quinone network (AQN) coating is a new advance in mussel heuristic chemistry in recent years. The method forms a self-crosslinking coating by Michael addition/Schiff base reaction between a polyamine compound and a quinone compound produced by oxidation of a polyphenol compound. Advantages of the AQN coating process include a one-step reaction process, mild conditions and durability of the resulting coating. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is rich in reactive primary amino groups and is capable of reacting with GA to form a self-crosslinking network. The AQN system can remove a hydration layer on the surface of the material to obtain strong adhesive force. In addition, studies have shown that nitrogen-modified polyphenols have a good effect in reducing the peak heat release rate of cellulose fibers. This supports the application of AQN in textile flame retardance.
For example, patent CN201910565152.9, a preparation method of formaldehyde-free washable flame-retardant fabric, which is to put the fabric fixed by natural polyphenols into metal salt solution for digestion, and obtain formaldehyde-free washable flame-retardant fabric. However, in the preparation process, the fabric deposited with the natural polyphenol compound is placed in a fixing agent solution for digestion, and the fixing agent solution is at least one of a tartaric acid solution, a chitosan solution, a fixing agent Y solution and a water-soluble polyurethane fixing agent solution. The free formaldehyde content of the color fixing agent Y is high, and the flame retardance durability of the fabric is improved by a method of forming a film on the surface of the fabric, so that the hand feeling of the fabric is affected.
And as for the patent CN201811270759.6, a preparation method and application thereof, the silk is immersed in tannic acid and metal salt solution for treatment, and the flame-retardant silk fabric is prepared. However, the limiting oxygen index of the unwashed silk fabric is only 27.5%, the effect is to be improved, and the treatment temperature of the method is high, so that batch preparation is not realized.

The principle of the invention is that the durable flame retardant is obtained by combining Gallic Acid (GA), polyethyleneimine (PEI) and metal ions and is used for silk fabrics. PEI and GA form a self-crosslinking network through Schiff base reaction or Michael addition, and further complex with metal ions to construct a PEI-GA/Me flame retardant system, so that the silk fabric is endowed with durable flame retardant performance.
The specific flame-retardant mechanism is that GA and PEI are decomposed first to generate nonflammable gases (such as H 2O、NH3 and CO 2), and the gases dilute the flammable gases and oxygen and take away heat generated by combustion. Furthermore, catechol groups in GA exhibit a strong scavenging ability towards free radicals. During combustion, it can trap highly reactive free radicals (H.and OH.) interrupting the combustion reaction, thereby providing a gas phase flame retardant effect. At the same time, the metal ions and catechol groups act synergistically in the coacervate phase to accelerate the formation of a dense carbon layer. The metal ions combine with oxygen to form metal oxides which are uniformly distributed on the surface of the carbon residue, so that the carbon layer is more compact and stable. The carbon layer can prevent heat and oxygen from entering the silk matrix, increase the carbon residue and reduce further thermal degradation of the matrix. Therefore, the PEI-GA/Me system synergistically acts in the GAs phase and the condensed phase, so that the silk fabric has excellent flame retardant property. Wherein GA has stronger chelating ability, and can react with metal ions through coordination bonds to form ternary complex with silk, thereby improving the washing fastness of the fabric. In addition, the silk fabric treated by the GA and Fe3+ compound also has excellent antibacterial performance.
Compared with the prior art, the preparation method of the flame-retardant silk fabric has the advantages that the obtained PEI-GA/Me flame-retardant system provides excellent and stable flame retardance for the silk fabric, overcomes the defect of poor flame retardance and durability of natural molecular flame retardants on the fabric, is environment-friendly and pollution-free, accords with the ecological concept of energy conservation and emission reduction, is low in treatment temperature and simple to operate, realizes batch production in a dyeing mode, integrates flame retardance and antibacterial property, can increase the added value of products, has a vertical burning damage length of 15cm after 50 times of washing, has an LOI value of higher than 27%, has good flame retardance, has 99.8% of antibacterial property on staphylococcus aureus, and has no change in hand feeling.

Testing and results
The flame retardant property of the silk fabric prepared in the embodiment of the invention is measured according to GB/T5454-1997 oxygen index method for textile combustion property experiment and GB/T5455-2014 determination of flame retardant length and continuous flame time of the vertical damage length of the textile combustion property. The washing method of the flame-retardant silk fabric is carried out according to GB/T3921-2008 standard of the fastness to soaping of textile color fastness test, 2g/L of special detergent for the silk and wool fabric is used, and the washing is carried out for 30min at the temperature of 40 ℃ at the bath ratio of 1:50. The water washing is repeated until the required water washing times.
(1) Flame retardant test
The results of the vertical burning test photographs and the carbon length and LOI values of the durable flame retardant silk fabrics prepared in examples 1 to 4 with the silk as it is (untreated silk fabric) are shown in fig. 1.
As can be seen from fig. 1, the untreated silk fabric burns rapidly after contact with the flame and is completely burned in 12 seconds, and almost the whole sample (30 cm) is burned. In contrast, the treated fabric rapidly self-extinguishes after contact with the flame, the spread of the flame is completely suppressed, and the fabric carbonizes at high temperature. The damage lengths of the fabrics treated with Fe 2+、Fe3+、Al3+ and Ti 4+ were 9.2 cm, 8.3 cm, 9.3 cm and 8.2 cm respectively, which were significantly shorter than those of the untreated silk fabrics. The flame retardant property of the treated silk fabric is obviously improved, the B1-level flame retardant standard is achieved, and the carbonization length is smaller than 15 cm according to the Chinese standard GB/T17591 and the B1-level flame retardant requirement.
Meanwhile, the LOI values of the treated fabrics increased to 29.8%, 30.2%, 27.4% and 33.0%, respectively, compared to 25.0% for untreated silk. The significant increase in LOI values is attributable to the formation of a char layer that serves as an insulator that impedes the transfer of heat and combustible materials, thereby slowing the combustion process.
(2) Durability test
The vertical burning test photographs and the results of the carbon length and LOI values of the durable flame retardant silk fabrics prepared in examples 1-4 after 20 washes are shown in FIG. 2.
As can be seen from fig. 2, after 20 times of washing, the damage length of the fabric treated by the four metal salts is less than 15 cm after the vertical burning test. In particular, the Fe 3+ ion treated fabrics had no significant flame spread and little change in damage length, indicating that the fabrics still had good flame retardant durability after washing.
Further washing tests were performed on the Fe 3+ ion treated fabric (example 2), as shown in FIG. 3 (the vertical burning charcoal length and LOI test results before and after washing the durable flame retardant silk fabric prepared in example 2), after 50 washing, the LOI value of the silk fabric still exceeded 27%, the charring damage length was close to 15 cm, but the fabric still met the B1 grade flame retardant standard. These results indicate that the flame retardancy and wash fastness of the modified silk fabric can be effectively improved by co-depositing GA, PEI and metal ions.
(3) Antibacterial test
Fig. 4 is a photograph showing antibacterial properties of the durable flame retardant silk fabric prepared in example 2 and untreated silk fabric.
As can be seen from fig. 4, the antibacterial properties of the untreated silk fabric are poor, because silk proteins provide nutrition for bacteria. In contrast, by counting the number of colonies on the petri dishes and calculating the antibacterial rate, the antibacterial rate of the durable flame-retardant silk fabric of example 2 against escherichia coli was 78.6%, and the antibacterial rate against staphylococcus aureus was 99.8%. The durable flame-retardant silk fabric has excellent durable flame-retardant performance and antibacterial performance.
The application relates to a durable flame-retardant silk fabric and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of functional finishing of textiles. The preparation method comprises the following steps of adopting Gallic Acid (GA), polyethyleneimine (PEI) and metal ions to combine, and preparing the flame-retardant silk fabric through a simple volume dyeing-drying method. Silk fabrics modified with different metal ions (Fe 2+、Fe3+、Al3+ and Ti 4+) all show self-extinguishing properties in vertical burning tests, the damaged coke lengths are 9.2, 8.3, 9.3 and 8.2cm respectively, and the Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) values are 29.8%, 30.2%, 27.4% and 33.0% respectively. After 50 washing cycles, the length of the silk injury coke treated by Fe 3+ is still kept below 15 cm. The Fe 3+ treated silk also shows excellent antibacterial properties. The simple and environment-friendly preparation method of the functionalized silk fabric provides a new way for developing advanced and sustainable silk fabrics.
