Description

DESCRIPTION FABRIC CONTAINING GRAPHENE, METHOD OF PREPARING THEM AND APPLICATIONS TECHNICAL FIELD The present description relates to the field of textile technology in general and relates to fabrics having at least three elements selected from anti-microbial, antistatic, wicking, thermal cooling, anti-odor and ultraviolet protection. More specifically, the present disclosure provides fabrics containing graphene and/or its derivative(s); wherein said graphene-containing fabrics are characterized by at least three elements selected from anti-microbial, antistatic, wicking, thermal cooling, anti-odor and ultraviolet protection. The graphene-containing fabrics of the present disclosure exhibit several beneficial properties, including but not limited to good/excellent wash fastness, friction fastness, sweat fastness, sublimation fastness, and light fastness. BACKGROUND OF THE DESCRIPTION Fabrics such as polyester (synthetic, natural and their blends) are widely used as ready-to-wear materials, sportswear, clothing in hospitals, medical devices, air purifiers and automotive textile applications due to their high strength and durability. However, virgin fabrics tend to absorb moisture and grow microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi on their surfaces and do not have any natural ability to inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Such microorganisms cause negative effects on textiles and consumers. Many antimicrobial agents and their use in the preparation of antimicrobial textiles are known. For example, silver nanoparticles are known to be effective and are a widely studied anti-microbial agent for textile applications. However, the cost and release of metallic nanoparticles into the environment remain challenges. Synthetic Fabrics (such as polyester) and their blends are widely used as clothing materials and automotive textile applications due to their high strength and durability. Unprocessed gray polyester fabrics naturally accumulate static charges on their surfaces, which affects the comfort of the fabric in many applications such as clothing. Anti-static agents generally used in the art typically increase the electrical conductivity of the fabric by creating hygroscopic intermediate layers that absorb moisture on the fabric surface and increase conductivity. However, it interferes with properties such as moisture absorption, wicking and thermal cooling to achieve an anti-static effect. These wicking and thermal cooling properties are extremely important for the comfort of the user, especially in the case of clothing such as sportswear, where the anti-microbial effect of the fabric is also important in terms of hygiene. There is a need for fabrics that have a combination of multiple beneficial characteristics as a whole, where, taken together, all characteristics exist simultaneously without interfering with each other. The present disclosure attempts to address that need.

In another embodiment, graphene is incorporated into the fabric in the form of a coating on the surface of the fabric or fibers of the fabric. In a preferred embodiment of the present disclosure, graphene is incorporated into the fabric at the surface of the fabric and is infused into the fiber network of the fabric. In embodiments of the present disclosure, graphene, an atom-thick carbon honeycomb lattice, is incorporated into the fabric with mechanical, thermal, electrical properties In addition, it has extraordinary anti-microbial properties. Depending on the number of layers stacked in each entity, graphene is classified as single-layer, two-layer, three-layer and multi-layer. The physical structure and chemically functionalized groups of graphene have the ability to kill microorganisms and control their growth, thus providing graphene with anti-bacterial activity. Atomic-thick sheets of carbon have sharp edges and spikes that act as a sharp knife, causing irreversible damage to the cell membranes of bacteria and killing them. Additionally, in another mechanism, bacteria/germs are surrounded and killed by large sheets of graphene. The functionalized graphene groups chemically react with the antioxidant groups (GSH-glutathione) of the bacteria in the cell membrane, which oxidizes these bacterial antioxidant groups and induces oxidative stress, which kills the bacteria. Accordingly, due to the above mechanisms and the synergistic effect of physical and chemical degradation on the cell membranes of bacteria, graphene is considered a potent antibacterial/anti-microbial agent and provides better/improved antibacterial/anti-microbial activity compared to existing anti-microbial agents. In addition to the above, the atomic-thick honeycomb carbon-based lattice structure of graphene has extraordinary electrical properties due to the overlapping of 1T-orbitals. The in-plane electrical conductivity of monolayer graphene is approximately 1<1O'6 ohm.cm with an electron mobility of approximately 200000 cm2/Vs. Depending on the number of stacked layers in each entity, graphene is classified as single-layer, two-layer, three-layer and multi-layer. Coating or infusing graphene into fabrics greatly increases the electrical conductivity and thus improves the anti-static property of fabrics. Accordingly, due to the above properties of graphene, graphene is considered to impart more efficient and durable anti-static properties to fabrics compared to currently available anti-static agents. In some embodiments, infusion of a fine amount of graphene into fabrics, such as at least about the weight of the fabric [grams per square meter (GSM)] of the fabric, effectively reduces the resistance of the fabric from about 1016 ohm.cm to less than about 109 ohm.cm, this allows rapid dissipation of charges from the fabric surface, thus leading to the anti-static properties of the treated fabric. This helps prevent static electricity from building up in the fabric and helps overcome the triboelectric effect caused by the friction of the fabric. Anti-static agents typically used in the technique increase the electrical conductivity of the fabric by creating hygroscopic interlayers on the fabric surface that absorb moisture and increase conductivity. However, this moisture absorption to achieve an anti-static effect interferes with fabric properties such as wicking and thermal cooling, which are important for the breathability of the fabric. These wicking and thermal cooling properties are extremely important for the comfort of the wearer, especially when it comes to clothing such as sportswear or uniforms, where in addition to properties such as anti-static and anti-microbial, the fabric's properties such as wicking and thermal cooling are also important in terms of hygiene and comfort. It is important.

Table 3: Characteristics of the reduction cleaning cycle Time Temperature Reduction cleaning of the fabric was carried out on a jet dyeing machine at 80°C for 20 minutes. Example 4: Analysis of elements of fabric incorporating graphene. The fabric prepared in Example 3 was subjected to analysis of various properties reported in the present disclosure. The following observations were made: Table 4: Analysis of the elements of the fabric incorporating graphene Required Standard Standard Fabric Observation Interferences Pass/Fail element values Anti-static ASTM D: <28 Half Decay 0.9 S-1.95S Good anti-static Pass 4238:90 time behavior bacterial For bacteriostatic washing 4.22 bacteriostatic Effect Bacteriostatic KP:3.32-2.30 behavior Activity 2 &4.16 staphylococcus KP-klebsiella pneumonia EC-Escherichia Excellent KP:99.95%- behavior staphylococcus EC:99.94-99.52 KP-klebsiella pneumonia EC-Escherichia Anti-viral AATCC 100- log of virus 3.93-3.66 Good anti-viral Pass M2 bacteriophage Fungus AATCC 100- 99%; 99.7% Good behavior Pass inhibitory 2012 fungus Aspergillus niger inhibitor albicans inhibitor Friction ISO 105 5 4-5 Passes Standards Good fastness Fastness ISO 105 4-5 4-5 Passes Standards Good according to E04/AATCC Wicking -- NA 2 inches/3 minutes - Good Passes inches/30 minutes protection protection 250 - excellent RFC1) absorption UV protection Thermal Kawabata - --Dry state 0.150 W/cm2 - Good thermal Permeable cooling KES-F7 Wet state 0.377 W/cm2 cooling From the above, it can be seen that the fabric of the present disclosure has anti-microbial, antistatic, wicking, thermal cooling, all of which are positive for the comfort and safety of the user. It has been observed that it has at least three elements such as anti-odor and ultraviolet protection. Example 5: Preparation of Alternative Graphene Coating Solutions and their effects on Fabric The following alternative coating solutions were prepared following the method in Example 2: Alternative graphene coating solution 1 - Wetting agent 1 gram per liter (gpl), lubricating agent 1 gpl, defoaming agent 200L dyeing solution containing 0.01-1% graphene by weight based on the weight of the fabric to be dyed, along with other chemicals such as 0.25 gpl and pH control 3 gpl.

Fabrics incorporating graphene were prepared using the alternative coating solutions described above. For comparison purposes, the coating solution in Example 2 was used. Fabrics were prepared following the same methodology as Example 3. The resulting fabrics were tested for anti-microbial, antistatic, wicking, thermal cooling, anti-odor and ultraviolet protection elements. It was found that alternative coating solutions (1 and 2), which do not contain dispersing agent and wetting agent respectively, cannot yield fabric with at least 3 elements selected from anti-microbial, antistatic, wicking, thermal cooling, anti-odor and ultraviolet protection. The above therefore shows that even the absence of a component from the above-mentioned coating solution fails to give the fabric of the present disclosure necessarily characterized by at least 3 elements selected from anti-microbial, anti-static, wicking, thermal cooling, anti-odor and ultraviolet protection.
