The invention relates to a preparation method of flexible polyhydroxyl
polyester fibers. The preparation method comprises the steps of mixing dihydric
alcohol, polyhydroxyl and
polyethylene glycol macromolecules according to certain
molar ratio, esterfying in different stages, wherein slightly excessive acid is used in a first esterfying stage to ensure that parts of polyhydric
alcohol, which has low ability to be involved
esterification reaction, can be fully reacted and grafted into a
polyester molecular chain; supplementing dihydric
alcohol to regulate terminal carboxyl group of
copolyester in a second esterfying stage, and then carrying out condensation
polymerization to prepare flexible polyhydroxyl
polyester; and performing
melt spinning to the flexible polyhydroxyl polyester to prepare the flexible polyhydroxyl polyester
fiber. The flexible polyhydroxyl polyester
fiber has good
moisture absorption performance and
softening property, and the
fiber can be dyed in a mild condition and has good
dyeing performance due to the polyhydroxyl active sites in fiber and
ether bonds in flexible chain
polyethylene glycol; the flexible polyhydroxyl polyester fiber can be widely applied to preparation of antistatic
moisture-absorption and sweat-releasing fibers and used as a closed-fit fabric. The modification effect is remarkable and the method is particularly suitable for melt direct-
spinning process.
