Modification of biological starch macromolecule with phosphate and dimethylammonium chloride acyloxylate substituents confers good desizability, film properties, paste stability and adhesion. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 258:128862.

Abstract
This study revealed the influence of phosphorylation-dimethylammonium chloride acyloxylation (PDACA) on the desizability, film properties, paste stability, and adhesion of biological starch macromolecules. A new starch-based sizing agent, phosphorylated-dimethylammonium chloride acyloxylated starch (PDACAS), was synthesized with degrees of substitution (DS) ranging from 0.033 to 0.065. Compared to control phosphorylated-quaternized starch (PQS, 87.4 %), the desizing efficiency of cotton yarns sized with PDACAS was ~94 %, exceeding the industrial minimum requirement of 90 %. The PDACAS film tensile properties were as follows: elongation at break of 3.31 %-3.78 %, bending endurance of 1131-1537 cycles, and tensile strength of 35.83-28.31 MPa, compared with those of acid-thinned starch (ATS) film (2.74 %, 957 cycles, and 38.12 MPa). The PDACAS had paste stability of ~92 %, compared with 83.3 % for ATS. The bonding forces (an indicator of adhesion to fibers) ranged from 107.1 N to 125.3 N for cotton roving, and 128.3 N to 148.7 N for polyester/cotton roving, which were significantly better than those of ATS (95 N for cotton and 117.9 N for polyester/cotton roving). Overall, PDACA treatment effectively avoided the adverse effect of high DS quaternization on the desizability of PQS and imparted good film properties, paste stability, and adhesion to starch.

Polymers (Basel) 2024; 16:182. [PMID: 38256984 PMCID: PMC10820382 DOI: 10.3390/polym16020182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Warp sizing is a key process in textile production. However, before the yarn/fabric finishing, such as dyeing, the paste adhering to the warp must be eliminated to ensure optimal dyeing properties and the flexibility of the fabric. Therefore, the sizing will often consume a lot of energy and produce a lot of industrial wastewater, which will cause serious harm to the environment. In this study, we have developed an energy saving and environmentally friendly starch-based slurry by modifying natural starch with acrylamide. The paste has excellent viscosity stability and fiber adhesion, and exhibits excellent performance during warp sizing. In addition, the slurry has good water solubility at 60-70 °C, so it is easy to desize at low temperatures. Because of this, the sizing of the warp can be deslimed directly from the yarn during subsequent washing processes. This work can not only reduce some costs for the textile industry, but also achieve the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction.

Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:126957.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to survey the influence of poly(acrylic acid-co-butyl acrylate) [P(AA-co-BA)] branches on the sizing properties (i.e., paste stability, adhesion, properties of film and sized warps) of biological macromolecule (corn starch) for further promoting the properties of bromoisobutyryl esterified starch (BBES) and developing a new biobased sizing agent [BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA)]. The sizing properties of BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA) were estimated in comparison with acid-hydrolyzed starch (AHS) and BBES. Compared with the two starches, BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA) displayed higher paste stability, bonding forces to both polyester and polyester/cotton roving, film elongation and water solubility, as well as lower film strength. And the increased grafting ratio exhibited positive effects on these properties of BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA). The properties containing increase in strength, loss in extension, abrasion resistance and hairiness of polyester and polyester/cotton blended yarns sized with BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA), were superior to those sized with AHS and BBES, respectively, indicating that the incorporation of P(AA-co-BA) branches onto BBES could further promote the sizing qualities of both yarns. The BBES-g-P(AA-co-BA) with a grafting ratio of 16.51 % was concluded to size both yarns for improvement of yarn quality.

Abstract
Abstract
This study aimed to ascertain the influence of poly(3-acrylamidopropyl trimethylammonium chloride-co-acrylic acid) [P(ATC-co-AA)] on the adhesion, film properties, desizability of cornstarch, and reveal a suitable mole percentage of ATC units on the P(ATC-co-AA) for acquiring a new starch-based size [S-g-P(ATC-co-AA)]. A series of S-g-P(ATC-co-AA) samples were synthesized by the graft polymerization of acid-converted cornstarch with ATC and AA monomers. Their adhesion, film properties, and desizability were assessed. The results displayed that the P(ATC-co-AA) branches could significantly improve the adhesion to cotton fibers and diminish the film brittleness of starch. Under similar grafting ratio, the adhesion and desizability of S-g-P(ATC-co-AA) depended on the mole percentage of ATC units. Increasing the percentage favored the adhesion but disfavored the desizability. The percentage displayed a low effect on the film properties. S-g-P(ATC-co-AA) with a mole percentage of 57.7% presented good sizing properties and easy desizing, which had potential application in cotton warp sizing.

Abstract
The influence of the quaternization and butyrylation on the sizing properties of biological starch macromolecule was evaluated for acquiring a new starch bio-based size [quaternized-butyrylated starch (QBS)]. The sizing properties of granular QBS samples were investigated in comparison with acid-thinned starch (ATS) and quaternized starch (QS). The QBS samples with a DS range of 0.029-0.0779 exhibited bonding strengths of 17.0-18.3 cN/tex to cotton fibers [15.5 cN/tex (ATS, DS = 0) and 16.6 cN/tex (QS, DS = 0.0240)] and 31.0-34.3 cN/tex to polyester fibers [28.0 cN/tex (ATS) and 30.1 cN/tex (QS)], and their films showed breaking elongations of 2.99-3.51% [2.59% (ATS) and 2.81% (QS)] and tensile strengths of 36.5-32.1 MPa [38.1 MPa (ATS) and 37.3 MPa (QS)]. Compared with QS, significantly increased bonding strengths as well as obviously decreased strengths and increased elongations of the films for the QBS samples with the total DS ≥ 0.0635 were exhibited. As increasing the modification levels from 0.029 to 0.0779, QBS presented paste stabilities from 90.4% to 85.7% which met with the requirement in warp sizing, and displayed higher desizing efficiencies (93.2-93.8%) than ATS (91.5%) and QS (90.2%). Based on these results, the amphiphilic quaternization-butyrylation was a good means for starch to acquire good sizing properties.

New strategy for grafting hydrophobization of lignocellulosic fiber materials with octadecylamine using a laccase/TEMPO system. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 160:192-200.

Abstract
The enzymatic functionalization of lignocellulosic fibers using oxidoreductases was successfully achieved by targeting lignin moieties as grafting sites on the surface. In this study, a novel strategy for hydrophobization of lignocelluloses was investigated, which involved the laccase/TEMPO-mediated grafting of octadecylamine (OA) onto both lignin and cellulose components of jute fabrics. The results showed that OA monomers were successfully grafted onto jute fabric surface using the laccase/TEMPO system with the grafting percentage and efficiency values of 0.712% and 10.571%, respectively. The primary hydroxyl groups of cellulose were oxidized by laccase/TEMPO to carbonyl groups, which were then coupled with amino-contained OA monomers via Schiff base reaction. The phenolic hydroxyl groups of lignin were transformed by laccase to radicals, on which OA molecules were grafted via Michael addition reaction. Consequently, grafted jute fabrics showed a considerable increase in the surface hydrophobicity with a contact angle of 125.9° and a wetting time of at least 2 h. Furthermore, there was an acceptable decrease in the breaking strength of jute fabrics by 13.60%, and the color of fabrics turned yellowish and reddish. This eco-friendly enzymatic process provides a new strategy for grafting hydrophobization and even functionalization of lignocellulosic fiber materials using amino compounds.
