Abstract
An apparatus is provided to make fabrics. The fabrics are environmentally friendly, water-repellent and colored. A pigment, a C4 fluorine-containing compound, a dispersant and a related polymer substrate carrier are bond to obtain water-repellent colored masterbatches. The C4 fluorine-containing compound is environmentally friendly while being free of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS). The masterbatches are spun into yarns for making a fabric with the pigment and the C4 fluorine-containing compound uniformly mixed. Thus, the present invention significantly reduces waste water pollution from dyeing and processing without generating environmentally harmful PFOA and PFOS.
Description
- The present invention relates to fabricating fabrics; more particularly, relates to uniformly mixing a pigment and a C4 water-repellent agent into environmentally friendly water-repellent colored fabrics for significantly reducing waste water pollution from dyeing and processing without generating environmentally harmful perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS).
- For making water-repellent colored yarns, a water-repellent fluorine-containing agent (C6 or C8) is used on winding after dyeing the yarns for adhering the water-repellent agent before drying. Yet, there are shortcomings. The water-repellent agent would not be adhered uniformly; wash fastness would be poor; the spinning device would be polluted; and, the water-repellent agent would generate environmental hormones of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS). In addition, a lot of waste water would be produced to pollute the environment on dyeing the yarns. Traditional water-repellent C8 (8 carbons) fluorine-containing agent contains PFOA or PFOS, whose half-lives are long and would continue to exist in the natural environment while being low-dose accumulated in organisms to cause harm to human. Although the water-repellent C6 fluorine-containing agent is measured to have a far below concentration than the C8 fluorine-containing water-repellent agent and long-term residual harms are thus reduced, toxicity concern can not be completely ruled out. Hence, the prior art does not fulfill all users' requests on actual use.
- The main purpose of the present invention is to provide an apparatus for binding a pigment, an environmentally friendly C4 fluorine-containing compound (water-repellent C4 fluorine-containing agent completely free of PFOA and PFOS), a dispersant and a related polymer substrate carrier to obtain water-repellent colored masterbatches; and spinning the masterbatches into yarns for uniformly mixing the pigment and the C4 fluorine-containing compound into fabric to obtain environmentally friendly water-repellent colored fabrics, where waste water pollution from dyeing and processing is significantly reduced without generating environmentally harmful PFOA and PFOS.
- To achieve the above purpose, the present invention is an apparatus of fabricating environmentally friendly water-repellent colored fabrics, comprising a masterbatch generator, a drying device, a yarn spinner, a first fabric generator and a second fabric generator, where the masterbatch generator melt-kneads a raw material; after being melt-kneaded, the raw material is extruded to form a plurality of water-repellent colored masterbatches through cooling and granulating; the drying device is connected to the masterbatch generator; the drying device hot-dries the masterbatches to obtain a plurality of dried masterbatches; the yarn spinner is connected to the drying device to obtain water-repellent colored yarns by spinning; the first fabric generator is connected to the yarn spinner to obtain a water-repellent colored fabric of a knitted fabric, a woven fabric or a plush fabric; and the second fabric generator is connected to the drying device to obtain a water-repellent colored non-woven fabric. Accordingly, a novel apparatus of fabricating environmentally friendly water-repellent colored fabrics is obtained.

Thus, the C4 fluorine-containingcompound 63 is quickly and uniformly dispersed in a polymer-substrate-carrier mixture for forming a water-repellent polymer-substrate powder having the C4 fluorine-containingcompound 63 and thepigment 64 uniformly dispersed. Therein, the water-repellent polymer-substrate powder is kneaded and granulated at a temperature of 220 Celsius degrees (° C.) ˜300° C. by a twin-screw kneading device having a screwing speed of 300 RPM˜400 RPM with coordination of thecooling tank 14 and thegranulator 15 for forming water-repellent coloredmasterbatches 6 a having uniform and smooth surface. Then, the fabricated water-repellent coloredmasterbatches 6 a are collected in the collectingtrough 16 to be hot-dried at a temperature of 110° C.˜140° for 6˜30 hours for obtaining the driedmasterbatches 6. - On fabricating the water-repellent colored yarns, 1˜20 wt % of the dried
masterbatches 6 are put into the yarn-makingdevice 31 of theyarn spinner 3 to be spun with coordination of spinningnozzle 7 for obtaining the water-repellentcolored yarns 8 a having yarn finenesses of 1˜100 deniers; and, then, the water-repellent coloredyarns 8 a are winded by thewinding device 32 through therollers 33.
