August 19th is the third Chinese Doctors’ Day. This year’s Doctors’ Day is different from the past. This year, doctors have put in more effort and sweat on the front line of epidemic prevention and control, and composed a song. A touching hymn to life. Due to the impact of the epidemic and people’s increasing awareness of hygiene and health, the demand for antibacterial and sterilizing products continues to increase. The application of antibacterial materials in my country’s textile and apparel industry will also become the norm, and antibacterial fabrics may become the darling of the world.
Antibacterial Fabric is a special functional fabric that can inhibit the growth, reproduction or inactivation of bacteria and fungi on fabrics, and can also eliminate odors caused by bacteria. It is reported that there are currently two mainstream processing methods: one is a post-processing process that adds antibacterial additives to fabrics, which is the most commonly used one on the market; the other is using spinning-level antibacterial technology to directly make antibacterial agents. into chemical fibers.
“Fabrics with antibacterial additives added in the post-processing process can be washed repeatedly about 50 times. Our company’s antibacterial fiber uses food nano-level zinc oxide as the main antibacterial component, and the fabric can be washed 150 times. The final antibacterial property can reach 99.93%, which is the biggest difference from adding additives.” Gong Qian from Shaoxing Lianben Textile Co., Ltd. said while taking out the test report. It is understood that nano zinc oxide is a new multifunctional inorganic material with a particle size of approximately 1-100 nanometers. It has good UV shielding and excellent antibacterial and bacteriostatic properties. When added to fabrics, it can give the fabrics sun protection, antibacterial, deodorizing and other functions.
With the continuous improvement of nanotechnology, nano-zinc oxide, as a common antibacterial agent, has been widely used in antibacterial materials. The nano-zinc oxide antibacterial fiber currently used by Lianben Textile uses polyester as the carrier, and the price ranges from 20 to 40. The reporter also learned that from fiber to clothing fabrics, nano zinc oxide masterbatch and polyester masterbatch need to be fused and drawn first, and then spun into yarn after being drawn into fiber. The core antibacterial technology is all in the masterbatch. “Sweat itself has no smell. Sweat nourishes bacteria, which causes it to smell over time. The effect of nano zinc oxide is not only antibacterial and antibacterial, but also eliminates the bad smell produced by bacteria.” Gong Qian explained to reporters .
In addition to their applications in clothing, socks, workwear fabrics, and outdoor sports fabrics, antibacterial products for home textiles are also the focus of everyone’s attention. Antibacterial summer quilts, antibacterial curtains… are very popular. “Our antibacterial quilt core and isatis functional anti-sore pillows are selling well. Isatis fiber contains alkaloids and organic acids, which can inhibit various bacteria on the surface of human skin, with an antibacterial rate of over 95%.” Zhou Liangjun of Golden Phoenix express.
The outbreak of the new coronavirus has given rise to consumer demand for antibacterial fabrics, and functional textiles will receive more attention and favor.
