Abstract
Fluorinated and formaldehyde-based compounds impart excellent hydrophobicity and flame-retardant properties to cotton fabrics. However, they come with various health and environmental risks. A novel hydrophobic, flame retardant, and antimicrobial finishing agent free from fluorine and formaldehyde was synthesized. The diammonium phosphate octadecyl citrate (DAPOC) was synthesized by using stearic acid (octadecanoic acid), citric acid (propane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid), and diammonium hydrogen phosphate. It was grafted onto the cotton fabrics by employing the conventional pad-dry-cure method. The results indicated that this newly developed finish could be chemically bonded to cotton fabrics through C-O-C covalent bonds. The contact angle of the cotton fabric finished with a 12% concentration of the finishing agent reached 151.9°. Additionally, the finished cotton fabrics displayed evident flame-retardant properties. After undergoing 20 laundering cycles, DAPOC maintained strong hydrophobic and flame-retardant characteristics, demonstrating its durability. The chemical structure of DAPOC was verified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-NMR). The thermogravimetric analysis confirmed the flame-retardant nature of the treated cotton fabric samples. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results demonstrated the successful grafting of the newly created finish onto the cotton fiber. X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra depicted that the crystalline structure of finished cotton fabric remained mostly unaltered. Furthermore, the finished cotton fabric exhibited commendable antimicrobial properties due to the inclusion of citric acid.

Polymers (Basel) 2020; 12:E1629. [PMID: 32707932 PMCID: PMC7463466 DOI: 10.3390/polym12081629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2020] [Revised: 07/15/2020] [Accepted: 07/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Three series of silicone modified polyurethane acrylate (SPUA) prepolymers were prepared from dicyclohexylmethane-4, 4'-diisocyanate (HMDI), PPG1000, triethylene glycol (TEG), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA), and multi-hydroxyalkyl silicone (MI-III) with tris(trimethylsiloxy)silyl propyl side groups. Their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) analysis, and SPUA films were obtained by UV curing. The properties of films were investigated by attenuated total reflection (ATR)-FTIR, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), water contact angle (WCA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), water and hexane resistance, and tensile testing. The results showed that the structures and dosages of MI-III could influence the polymerization properties, surface properties, water and n-hexane resistance, and thermal and tensile properties of SPUA. For instance, the surface aggregation of tris(trimethylsiloxy)silyl propyl groups (even ~2.5 wt%) could endow SPUA films with less microphase separation, good hydrophobicity, lipophilicity, thermal stability, and mechanical properties. Interestingly, obvious regular winkles appeared on the surfaces of SPUAIII films, which are characterized by relatively high WCA values. However, relatively smooth were observed on the surfaces of SPUAIII films, which also exhibit lower water absorption ratio values. Furthermore, the ordinary cotton textiles would be transformed into hydrophobic and oleophilic textiles after treating with SPUA simply, and they were used in the oil/water separation study. Among them, consistent with water and hexane resistance analysis of SPUA films, SPUAII treated cotton textiles are characterized by relatively small liquid absorption capacity (LAC) values. Thus, phenyl groups and side-chain tris(trimethylsiloxy)silyl propyl groups are helpful to improve the hydrophobicity and lipophilicity of SPUA films. SPUAII-5 (even with 5 wt% MII) treated cotton textiles could efficiently separate the oil/water mixture, such as n-hexane, cyclohexane, or methylbenzene with water. Thus, this material has great potential in the application of hydrophobic treatment, oil/water separation, and industrial sewage emissions, among others.

Abstract
In the fabric finishing field, the water repellents have received increasing interest in recent years and the development of a fluorine-free water repellent has become an attractive prospect. In this study, glyceryl monostearate-modified waterborne polyurethanes (GWPUs) with a branched structure act as water repellents, and were prepared from toluene diisocyanate, trimethylolpropane, hydroxypropyl polydimethylsiloxane, N-methyldiethanolamine, and glyceryl monostearate (GMS). The water repellency and other properties of GWPUs with different GMS content, such as water resistance, hydrophobicity, and air permeability, were studied. The results show that the GMS content for optimum water repellency was 20 wt%, which achieved the highest score (100 points) in a water repellency evaluation. As for the water repellent ability with a GMS content of 20 wt%, the water absorption of a piece of film was reduced to 7.80%, while the water contact angle of terylene coated by the water repellent rose to 148.0°.

Abstract
Three silicone surfactants, 3-tris(trimethylsiloxy)silylpropyl sulfonate with different alkaline counterions (lithium, sodium, and potassium), were synthesized for the first time. Their chemical structures were confirmed by FT-IR spectra, 1H NMR, and ESI-MS, and their behaviors in aqueous solutions were investigated by surface tensiometry, electrical conductivity, dynamic light scattering, and different transmission electron microscopy techniques. These anionic silicone surfactants exhibited remarkable surface activity and could reduce the surface tension of water to as low as 19.8 mN/m at the critical aggregate concentration (CAC). The adsorption and aggregation behaviors of these surfactants were assessed by determining the adsorption efficiency, minimum average area per surfactant molecule, and thermodynamic parameters. The cryo-TEM results verified that these molecules could form vesicles in water above the CAC. Moreover, the lowest surface tension, the smallest CAC value, and the largest aggregate size have been reached with potassium counterions. Thus, the different behavior of these surfactants in water can be explained by the different sizes of the hydrated ions.

Effect of Oxygen and Initiator Solubility on Admicellar Polymerization of Styrene on Silica Surfaces. INT J POLYM SCI 2017.

Abstract
Although admicellar polymerization has been termed the surface analog of emulsion polymerization, previous reports utilizing free radical-initiated admicellar polymerization relied on high levels of the free radical initiator when compared to emulsion polymerization, likely due to the presence of oxygen in the reported admicellar polymerization systems. Admicellar polymerizations of styrene on the surface of precipitated silica initiated by either a water-soluble or a water-insoluble initiator were studied to determine the effect of dissolved oxygen and free radical initiator solubility on the kinetics, yield, and molecular weight of the polymer formed. Results show that the presence of oxygen reduces the polymer yield and limits molecular weight. The solubility of the initiator also affected the polymer formed in the admicellar polymerization of styrene. While monomer conversions and polymer yield were similar, the molecular weights of polymerizations initiated by a water-soluble initiator were higher than comparable polymerizations initiated by a water-insoluble initiator.
