The invention relates to a water-repellent fabric and its preparation method, in particular to a covalent grafting fluoropolymer by carbene polymerization to construct low surface energy roughening structures with geometrical morphologies on the fiber surface, belonging to the technical field of special functional textiles and their preparation.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTIONWith the continuous development of composite materials, the functional textile materials in China are still in the initial stage of development, but the development space is very large and the additional value is quite high, which makes it become a hot spot of material development in recent years. Fabric fiber is a kind of material with large specific surface area, and the surface modification of fiber material has become the main method to prepare these functional materials, especially in the field of preparation of waterproof and oil-repellent textiles. At present, the main methods of preparing water-repellent fabrics include impregnation coating method, spraying method, sol-gel method and gas/liquid deposition method, etc., but the hydrophobic effect on the surfaces of modified fabrics prepared by these methods is easily weakened or lost.
Covalent grafting is a rapidly developed and effective chemical modification method in recent years. Because low surface energy and certain roughness are the necessary conditions to obtain water-repellent surface, covalent grafting is generally to construct an active site on the fiber surface or to use the functional group of the fiber itself to graft the low surface energy polymer to the fabric through covalent bond, or some monomers containing low surface energy elements directly make polymerization reaction at the grafting site on the fiber surface to produce low surface energy polymers. However, due to the flexibility among the molecular chains of the traditional carbene polymers (C2 polymers), it tends to form a film rather than roughening structures with uniform morphology after grafting on the surface of fabrics.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Technical ProblemsThe present invention aims at the disadvantages of poor fastness, certain damage to the fiber itself and the need for multi-step organic-inorganic hybridization in the preparation of water-repellent functional fabrics by the impregnation coating method, and the problem that the low surface energy polymer grafted on the surface of the fabric by the traditional carbene polymerization covalent grafting method can not produce the roughening structures with geometrical morphologies, and discloses a method for preparing water-repellent fabric by covalent grafting fluoropolymer by carbene polymerization. The grafted short fluorine chain fluoroalkyl segmer has a good shielding effect on the main chain of the polymer by using the characteristics of single-carbon repetition of carbene polymer, that is, when the surface of the fabric is covalently grafted, the polymer growth of the monomer of only one carbon unit is provided in each chain propagation link. Under the induction of the surface of fibers, the carbene fluoropolymer grafted on the surface of the fabric forms low surface roughening structures with geometrical morphologies, which effectively improved the water repellency of the fabric.
Solutions to the Problems Technical SolutionThe present invention constructs low surface energy roughening structures with geometrical morphologies on the surface of the fabric by means of carbene polymerization covalent grafting, and then produces a water-repellent fabric, whose chemical formula is shown below.

BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION Beneficial EffectsCompared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the technical scheme provided by the invention are as follows:
1. The chemical modification method of covalent grafting is adopted: it takes the hydrophilic polar group of the fiber surface itself, such as hydroxyl, as the active grafting site to make chemical grafting reaction of the surface modifier and the active group, which not only reduces the hydrophilic group of the fiber surface, but also introduces the low surface energy functional polymer. Compared with the traditional method, the chemical covalent grafting method at room temperature of the present invention not only makes the water repellency of the modified fabric effective and durable, but also reduces the original performance of the fabric material to the minimum.
2. Carbene polymerization, a new single-carbon repeated polymerization method, makes the fluorine-containing side chains on the main chain of the grafted polymer closely accumulate and a small amount of short carbon chain fluoroalkyl monomers can produce a good shielding effect on the main chain of the polymer. The whole process of polymerization is carried out at room temperature, avoiding the potential danger caused by heating during the preparation and treatment of materials. And the by-product of polymerization is nitrogen, which does not require the treatment of tail gas and is relatively environmentally friendly.
3. It uses the single-carbon repetition and tridimensional regularity characteristics of a carbene polymer to construct low surface energy polymer roughening structures on the surface of the fabric in one step, which overcomes the complexity of multi-step modification of traditional organic-inorganic hybridization. This “bottom-up” modification method can achieve the required geometrical roughening morphology structure by designing the precursor molecular structure and changing the process, and can achieve uniform morphology and controllable size, overcoming the defect of singleness of inorganic micro/nano-scale particle roughening morphology.

The invention discloses a water-repellent fabric, which expands the application research of carbene polymerization in the field of preparation of functional materials. Based on the single-carbon repetition and tridimensional regularity characteristics of a carbene polymer, the novel carbene polymerization covalent grafting can construct low surface energy roughening structures on the surface of the fabric in one step, which doesn't require the traditional organic-inorganic hybridization and multi-step reaction and can obtain the relatively durable hydrophobic effect. The novel carbene polymerization (C1 polymerization) can graft the low surface energy polymer based on the single carbon repeating unit to the cotton fabric, and utilizes the molecular chain rigidity of the densely stacked single carbon units, so it is expected to induce the carbene polymer crystallization on the fiber surface to form polymer crystal structures with roughening morphologies on the surface of fabric by self-assembly driven by crystallization, thus obtaining the required protective physical structures. The process of carbene polymerization grafting is carried out at low/room temperature. Compared with other modification methods that need to be carried out at high temperature/high pressure or under strong acid/alkali or strong oxidant conditions, it achieves the minimum damage to the fiber and the by-product of polymerization is nitrogen, which is relatively environmentally friendly.
