The pretreatment of pure cotton or polyester / cotton fabric is mainly to remove impurities from cotton fibers, so that the fabric has good printing and dyeing processing performance. The conventional desizing, scouring, and bleaching processes are set for different impurities. However, it is found in production that the above processes are not specific. What is the situation? China Knitting Fair will explain for you.
Bleaching is to turn the textiles containing pigments into colorless textiles. Generally, oxidants are used for bleaching. Dyeing is to turn colorless textiles into colored ones, and dyes are usually used for dyeing. If pure white cotton is produced, the printing factory will do two bleaching, the first time is called semi-bleaching and the second time is called full-bleaching. If producing colored cotton cloth, the printing factory should first do half-bleaching, and then dye it.
Also note: bleaching oxidants, not whiteners. Bleaching and whitening work on different principles. The role of bleaching is to remove pigments; the principle of whitening is to radiate blue fluorescence to achieve the purpose of "covering yellow".
At the same time as desizing, the oil and wax in the raw cotton components also start to saponify, which has a certain scouring effect. During the scouring process, not only the grease, wax, pectin, ash, lignin, etc. in the cotton components are removed, the slurry is further removed, and some pigments can be removed.
In the bleaching process, hydrogen peroxide not only removes pigments, but also has a certain removal effect on residual slurry and some impurities.
#??#
In the conventional process, caustic soda is used as desizing and scouring, while in the hydrogen peroxide bleaching process, caustic soda is only used to adjust the pH value of the bleaching solution.
Since the alkali is an activator of hydrogen peroxide, if the alkali concentration is increased, the hydrogen peroxide is decomposed to generate H00-, and at the same time the reaction speed is increased, resulting in a large amount of reactive power consumption of the hydrogen peroxide. More importantly, due to the excessive activation of hydrogen peroxide, the formation of H00 · radicals is promoted, which has certain damage to the fibers.
In addition, in the production of fabrics, water, equipment and other heavy metal ions such as Fe2 +, Cu2 +, etc. will inevitably cause the hydrogen peroxide to crack and decompose, causing chain reactions.
Therefore, in the one-bath method of withdrawal, cooking, and bleaching, the amount of hydrogen peroxide in the strong alkaline bath must be strictly controlled, and its stabilizer must meet three functions: ① stabilizing perhydroxyanion (HOO-); ② shielding heavy metal ions; Mass production of perhydroxy radicals (HOO ·).
In the conventional bleaching process (pH 10 to 11), the hydrogen peroxide is activated by alkali to form HOO-.
At this time, water glass, because of its polymer network structure, shields heavy metal ions, can adsorb Fe2 + and block HOO—, so that Fe2 + does not undergo a catalytic reaction, and at the same time inhibits the formation and decomposition of H00 · radicals. Water glass can also combine with Ca2 + and Mg2 + ions in the bleach solution to form highly dispersed magnesium silicate and calcium silicate colloids, which are adsorbed on the surface of the catalyst to make it lose its activity and thus stabilize it.
#??#
If water glass is bleached in soft water, instead of stabilizing, it will accelerate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide due to the increase in pH. However, when the Fe2 + content exceeds the adsorption capacity of water glass, the stabilization effect is weakened. For this reason, although water glass has a good stability effect and is cheap, it cannot meet the above functions in the one-bath method of strong alkali withdrawal, boiling, and bleaching. Therefore, it is unreasonable to use water glass as a stabilizer alone in the prescription. If water glass, magnesium sulfate, and complexing agent are mixed in a certain ratio, it can be suitable for one-bath method of boiling back, boiling, and bleaching.
In addition, the scouring agents and detergents used in the prescription must be resistant to alkali, have good permeability in the alkali bath, have the effects of emulsification, washing, solubilization, and dispersion, and have a high cloud point. If these quality indicators meet If it does not meet the requirements, it will also have a certain effect on the effect of the one-bath method of retreating, cooking, and bleaching. In short, as long as you choose the appropriate hydrogen peroxide stabilizer and scouring agent, penetrant, and control the process conditions, the excessive alkali in the strong alkali is properly resolved , Intensification, stability, etc., will certainly make withdrawal, cooking, bleaching one bath method to achieve the desired effect.
In addition: ① The amount of water glass is too much, and there is more residual hydrogen peroxide, which fails to give full play to the bleaching effect. ② Reduce the amount of water glass and increase the chelating stabilizer. ③ Caustic soda concentration can be appropriately increased, and the rolling rate can be increased. ④The steaming temperature can be increased to 105-110 ℃.

What fabric is good for socks? Introduction to stockings fabric knowledge, walk into the store that sells socks, and a wide variety of socks will also dazzle you. In order to ensure their own market, socks manufacturers are also introducing new fabrics. Customers will also choose socks according to their preferences. But some customers are also numb and don't know enough about the fabric. The socks exhibition provides you with some fabric knowledge:
Sock fabric:
1. pure cotton fabric
Pure cotton fabrics burn faster when they come into contact with flames, and they will turn to ashes instantly. After leaving the flame, the remaining part will continue to burn, the ash left is grayish white, twist it with your hands to make it delicate and loose, and smell the burning paper smell in the air.
2. Wool fabric
The wool fabric touches the flame and burns slowly. The burnt ash is black and twisted lightly by hand. It feels crispy. Due to the protein content of wool, there is a greater odor in the air after ignition.
3. Velvet fabric
Velvet fabric Sock fabric is relatively advanced, but the socks manufacturers consider that the grades of consumers are different, and the content of velvet in each type of socks is also different. You have to know that when you use both hands to pinch the ends of the socks, the better the elasticity, the higher the velvet content. Velvet socks look smoother. They feel soft, comfortable, and especially close to the body, and they last longer.

What fabric is good for socks
Stockings fabric
1. Nylon stockings: With its high strength, good abrasion resistance, and good elasticity, it has been beautiful for half a century.
2. Core-spun yarn: It is the more popular stocking raw material on the market. It refers to the spandex-cored yarn formed by covering or winding with spandex yarn. Features, also has the advantage of high elasticity of spandex.
3. Velvet stockings: All raw materials are made of unidirectional core-spun yarn or bidirectional core-spun yarn. Knitted socks have high elasticity, soft feel, fine transparency and better than nylon stockings. Keep warm.
4. Ultra-thin velvet socks: Weaving with high-tech ultra-fine fiber full-elastic silk that is softer than hair, with dense and delicate texture, smooth and silky touch, crystal transparency, and good breathability.
5. Combed cotton: The combing machine is used to comb the fibers during the processing of cotton fibers, and the various impurities of the fibers are almost completely removed. Fabrics made with this cotton will feel better.
6. Mercerized cotton: refers to the mercerizing process of raw cotton fibers under a certain tension in a concentrated alkali solution. The mercerized cotton fibers are more lustrous than the raw cotton fibers on the premise that the performance of other physical indicators does not change. Better degree, more comfortable feel, relatively easy to wrinkle.
Thickness points
Dan (D): refers to the fineness unit of sock fiber.
Every 9000 meters of fiber weighs as many dan (D).
At present, velvet socks are divided into 6D "thin to the end", 10D ultra-thin, 15D ultra-thin, 50D, 80D, 120D, 150D, 300D to 2000D.
Generally, ultra-thin ones can be used in summer, 50D, 80D, 120D, and 150D can be used in spring and autumn, and extra-thick and warm velvet socks can be used in winter. The thickness of 1600D is basically the same as that of ordinary cotton wool pants.
The core wire is thin.

Purchase and maintenance of stockings:
The selection of silk socks should pay attention to whether there is drawing, whether it is skewed, and whether there are missing needles. Also, choose the right size. In the choice of color of socks, people with thin legs should choose lighter socks; conversely, people with thicker legs should choose darker socks. When wearing socks, be careful to wear them slowly. Do not pull hard. Toenails must be cut frequently. Chemical fiber socks have poor hygroscopicity and should be washed frequently. Socks should be rubbed gently when washing. Do not use hot water for scalding. Exposure to air and dry.
Wearing socks should also be selected according to climate change and different clothing colors. Dark socks should be worn in cold weather and flesh-colored socks in warm weather. Generally, high skirts should be worn when wearing skirts, and medium socks should not be worn, otherwise the calf will feel short and thick. Tights can be worn in the cold, which can keep warm and abdomen, making the figure more beautiful.
What's the difference between pantyhose's added crotch, free crotch, open file, four-sided cutout.
There are 3 types of upshift, front upshift, rear upshift, and front and rear upshift. The prices are also more expensive than normal. The biggest benefit after adding crotch is that it is suitable for people with enlarged hips. Not only is it not easy to wear the crotch of pantyhose, but it is also more loose and not stuffy. Without a crotch, the crotch will wear easily after wearing it a few times, and the panty will slip easily.
#??#
The free crotch and open crotch are actually a concept. It is convenient for ladies to go to the toilet. Wear pantyhose first and then the inner storeroom. The crotch is designed to be free of crotch / open crotch to avoid taking off socks. This design is especially suitable for summer. In summer, the working environment of many women requires wearing skirts and stockings, while pantyhose will wrap the inner library, which is easy to sweat and breed bacteria, and is not breathable. Three / four-sided cutouts are more breathable and cooler. The common point is that they are more sexy!

1. The main varieties of aramid
Commercial aramids are mainly meta-aramid and para-aramid. Meta-aramid is mainly DuPont's Nomex and Teijin's Conex. Para-aramid is mainly Kevlar (DuPont), Technora (Teijin), Twaron (Teijin).
2. Research and application status of aramid functional textiles
Aramid's unique physical and chemical properties make it widely used in high temperature, flame retardant, wear-resistant, high-strength functional textiles. Countries around the world are also in the ascendant of their research, new functional textiles are emerging endlessly, and the application fields are constantly expanding.
2.1 Aramid flame retardant textiles
Although aramid fibers have good heat resistance and flame retardancy, they are relatively expensive. Secondly, due to the high crystallinity and strong intermolecular binding force, it is difficult to dye. Expensive prices and difficulties in dyeing have to a certain extent inhibited its yield and variety development. Therefore, research and development of various aramid blended flame-retardant fabrics have been made to improve the dyeing effect and reduce the product price.
#??#
(1) Aramid and wool blended flame-retardant fabric Wool is a natural fiber with certain flame-retardant properties. Aramid staple fibers are first slivered, then mixed with wool tops to form yarns, and then woven. When the proportion of aramid blend exceeds 30%, its limiting oxygen index reaches above 28, and the fabric can achieve good and durable flame retardant performance without flame retardant finishing, and can reduce costs without affecting the appearance and comfort of the fabric. The blending ratio can be adjusted according to the purpose to achieve multifunctionality.
(2) Aramid and cotton blended flame retardant fabrics Similarly, in order to reduce costs and achieve multi-functional requirements, a certain proportion of aramid and cotton fibers are blended to produce flame retardant fabrics. In the research of aramid and cotton fiber blending, the ratio of aramid and cotton blends is often 80/20, 50/50, 20/80. These three blended fabrics have continuous time, smoldering time, and damaged length before and after washing All meet GB8965-88 or higher requirements, and the limit oxygen index LOI value is also greater than 28 standards with flame retardant requirements. As the aramid content increases, the LOI value also increases. Among them, 80/20 fabric has excellent heat resistance and flame retardancy, which can meet the requirements of national flame retardant clothing without flame retardant finishing; 50/50 and 20/80 blended textiles can only reach the resistance after Proban flame retardant finishing. Ignition standards required.
(3) Aramid and flame-retardant viscose fiber blended flame-retardant fabric Flame-retardant viscose is a silicate-containing fiber poisonous fiber. Its physical and mechanical properties are similar to ordinary viscose fibers and can be processed into various textiles. Aramid and flame-retardant viscose blended fabrics have soft feel, good fluffy, drape, moisture absorption and breathability, and high strength, abrasion resistance, good cloth surface finish, color fastness, and charring when fired. Excellent properties such as drops can meet the quality requirements of high-to-medium-grade flame-retardant clothing and decorative fabrics.
#??#
(4) Aramid and ramie blended flame retardant fabrics Aramid fibers are used as the core yarn, and ramie fibers are covered with friction spinning technology to obtain ramie / aramid cored yarns. In addition, the ramie yarn treated with alkali is combined with aramid filament, and a composite yarn is obtained without twisting. After weaving into a fabric and then through appropriate flame retardant treatment, certain flame retardant requirements can be achieved.
2.2 Aramid antistatic textiles
Ordinary textile fibers, especially chemical fibers, are prone to generate and accumulate a large amount of static electricity. In a flammable and explosive environment, electrostatic discharge sparks can often cause explosion accidents as an ignition source. At the same time, most textile fibers are combustible or flammable materials. The limiting oxygen index is generally between 17 and 25, which is far lower than the minimum self-extinguishing value of 27 in the air. Once the fabric meets the ignition source, it will quickly burn. In order to ensure the safety of workers in many areas involving fire and explosion hazards such as fire protection, petrochemicals, ordnance, mining, etc., it is necessary to replace ordinary flammable and static-prone fabrics with fabrics that have both flame-retardant and antistatic properties.
When aramid and conductive fibers are blended and interwoven to form a new type of fabric, due to the compatibility and complementarity of the fabric's flame retardancy and antistatic properties, the fabric has obtained a durable protection function of flame retardant and antistatic. Aramon, the latest aramid product developed by DuPont, uses magnetron sputtering technology to sputter metal on the surface of aramid fibers to form a thin film, which not only has antistatic effect, but also shields high-frequency radiation and signals.

2.3 Development of aramid fiber dipped fabric
Kevlar fiber-impregnated fabric is a new type of high-grade insulation material used in large motors. Aramid fiber fabrics are impregnated with two dipping and two rolling processes. Firstly, after the fabric is dipped, a part of the rubber is rolled out, so that the glue is dipped into the fabric gap, and then rolled to dipped the glue into all the hairs inside the fiber; then the second dipped, this time mainly by coating, so that the surface of the fabric A certain amount of glue is coated, and the second rolling is to make the glue covered everywhere uniform, and then dry in an oven.
Due to its excellent performance, the use of aramid fiber as the insulation material for motors can make the heat resistance level as high as 180 ° C or higher. If mica can withstand high temperatures of 180 ° C, the weight of the motor will increase due to the large specific gravity, and the mica is brittle. The sources are not abundant. Compared with motors made of mica insulation materials with the same power, aramid fiber-based motors can save 28% copper, 15% steel, and 10% silicon steel. Compared with the fiberglass composite material made by the same method, the composite material made of aramid is 30% lighter and twice as hard.
2.4 Application of para-aramid in bulletproof clothing
Para-aramid fiber fabric has the highest anti-expansion strength, high elastic modulus and low specific density, which can absorb and disperse the energy of the bullet impact to other fibers of the knitted fabric, avoiding "blunt injuries". Therefore, the protective effect is remarkable. At the same time, the lightweight of aramid bulletproof jackets and helmets effectively improved the army's rapid response and protection capabilities.

2.5 Aramid / carbon fiber hybrid braid reinforced concrete
Through the theoretical analysis and practical test of aramid / carbon fiber fabric reinforced concrete, it can be seen that the function of fiber reinforced concrete is very obvious, especially using these two high-performance fibers as reinforcement materials for load-bearing structures, which can replace the reinforcement of Effect, and the weight is reduced by 41.8% compared with reinforced concrete, which is conducive to improving the seismic performance of the building and the foundation treatment of the structure, thereby obtaining higher economic and bearing benefits. However, how fiber fabrics are convenient for building construction, and at the same time easy to be grasped by ordinary construction workers, more in-depth research is still needed.
2.6 Aramid Tire Textiles
Due to the excellent properties of aramid, the mechanical properties of the prepared tire cord under high temperature are basically not affected by temperature, and under the action of alternating stress, the internal consumption is low, the heat generation is small, and the life is long. Aramid can reduce the volume and quality of tire reinforcement materials, and minimize material and energy consumption, and raise some limit indicators to new heights. In addition, aramid does not have the problem of rust, and can replace all metals in the tire (including bead wire), saving rubber, so that the performance of the tire is light, the rolling resistance is reduced, fuel and dimensional stability are saved, uniformity Good, and no flat spots, the best high-speed performance, traction and braking performance, good abrasion resistance, puncture resistance, and easy handling of waste tires.

2.7 Aramid weft-free functional textiles
It is also used for bulletproof, puncture-free cloth and plain weave have better elasticity resistance. Because in the manufacturing process of the weft-free cloth, the aramid fiber material has been fully unfolded, fixed by the adhesive, and there is no mutual staggering point between the fibers. When it is affected by the impact of the projectile, it is conducive to the dispersion of energy. With more fibers involved, energy can be absorbed over a larger area, so its elasticity is better.
Both the aramid non-weft areal density and the matrix resin mass fraction are important factors affecting the elastic properties of its laminates. When the weft-free cloth has a smaller areal density and a lower base resin mass fraction, the elasticity resistance of the laminate is also better.
2.8 Aramid / carbon fiber non-woven fabric
The aramid / carbon fiber non-woven fabric was prepared by the puncture method, and its oxygen barrier index LOI was 38 ~ 42, and the fireproof temperature reached 700 ° C. Mainly used in fire insulation lining, high-temperature dust filtering, decorative lining, covering cloth with fire and splash.
2.9 Aramid / Armored Steel Composite Board
Aramid fiber-reinforced resin-based composites have the characteristics of light weight, high strength, good elasticity resistance, and excellent flameproof effect. Adding aramid fiber composite material plate to armored steel can improve its anti-knock performance, and the structure of the material will affect the shock wave attenuation effect of the material. When materials are arranged in order of decreasing wave impedance, shock waves can be more effectively attenuated. A material with a multilayer structure has a better attenuation effect than a material with a double-layer structure, and a protective material with excellent anti-knock performance can be obtained.
