Particularly, a polyester fiber containing unsaturated double bonds and polycondensation catalyst using a mixture of magnesium ethylene glycol and antimony ethylene glycol and flame retardant polyester fiber and preparation method thereof.
Polyethylene terephthalate has the advantages of high modulus, high strength, heat resistance and good shape retention. It is widely used in the field of fiber and non-fiber, and closely related to people's production and life. With the application of polyester materials in civil buildings, home appliances, electronic appliances and other fields, their safety performance, especially the flame retardant properties, are put forward higher requirements. Phosphorus flame retardants in polyester based on solid phase charring and quality retention mechanisms and some gas flame retardant mechanism, not only reduce the heat release rate of the material, has good flame retardancy, but also reduce corrosion and toxic gases and The amount of smoke released can therefore overcome many of the disadvantages of halogenated flame retardants. Halogen-free flame retardants currently used in PET polyesters are mainly phosphorus-based flame retardants. An important way for such flame retardants to achieve flame retardancy is to promote PET droplet, so as to make the ignition part leave the fire source and increase the combustion PET surface quality loss and heat loss to achieve the purpose of flame retardant. However, in many applications (such as uniforms and protective clothing, etc.), the generation of droplet must be avoided. Therefore, the flame retardancy of polyester sing the conventional phosphorus-containing flame retardant inevitably encounters the problem that the droplet is hard to solve.
Flame retardant PET anti-droplet modification is mainly divided into methods of blending and copolymerization. The main blending method is adding anti-dripping agent, which can improve the droplet property of PET by improving the physical structure of the polymer melt and the charcoal layer. Copolymerization methods are mainly the use of both reactive flame retardant and anti-droplet function of flame retardants, such as the introduction of inorganic nano-materials, and phosphorus together to increase the capacity of the composite into carbon, enhanced PET flame retardant and anti-droplet properties.

Due to its energy-saving, safe and pollution-free environment, high production efficiency, suitable for assembly line production and many other advantages, so the rapid development.

Under the ultraviolet light irradiation, the double bond is opened by the unsaturated double bond contained in the polyester to form a crosslinking point, forming a certain of network structure, increasing the heat-resistant temperature of the polydextrose fiber, and improving the anti-dripping performance of the polyester fiber. Since the crosslinking is performed after the fiber is formed, the structural regularity and the crystallinity of the polyester are nit damaged, to maintain the excellent performance of polyester.

Photoinitiator is a key component of the crosslinking system. Initiator molecules have a certain light absorption ability in the UV range (250˜42 nm). After absorbing light energy, the initiator molecules change from the ground state to the active excited state and continue to change to excited singlet state. In its excited singlet state, or after being excited singlet state undergoes a single molecule or bimolecular chemical action, the production of active fragments can trigger the polymerization of monomers, these active fragments can be free radicals, which can trigger the crosslinking reaction.
The choice of metal salts as the initiator is mainly because its high thermal stability, that is, in the polymerization, spinning process remains stable, while cobalt salts and zinc salts on the polyester polymerization reaction does not have a negative impact, cobalt salts can also be as a polyester toner.
Due to the existence of unsaturated double bonds in the unsaturated polyester molecular structure, under the condition of the initiator, the long chain molecules of the unsaturated polyester may undergo cross-linking reaction to form a huge mesh-like molecule with a complicated structure.
