Embodiment

[0023] Example 1 Extraction of lotus fiber: 1) Collect 10 kg of lotus leaves and petioles of lotus as the raw material for extracting lotus fiber; 2) Wash the silt in the raw material with 5 kg of water, and manually break and decompose the cleaned raw material It becomes a raw material section with a length of 5-10 cm; 3) From the broken section of the raw material section, the silk-like fiber is directly spun by hand to obtain the primary fiber; 4) The primary fiber obtained above is washed, bleached, loosened and combed to obtain a textile About 100-200 grams of plant fibrils (i.e. lotus fiber) are used.

Abstract

The invention discloses lotus fibers which are extracted from a petiole and a pedicel of a lotus. Some indexes are better than those of ramie and cotton when the lotus fibers are used as textile fibers, therefore, the lotus fibers can be used as industry supplies of garment materials, decorative fabrics (wallpaper), table cloth, bedding and the like. Because the lotus fibers are all natural, non-toxic and odorless, the lotus fibers can be made into food packaging films, interior decoration wallpaper, automobile inner decoration and the like. Because moisture regain of the lotus fibers is 7%, the hydroscopicity is inferior to that of the ramie and slightly lower than that of the cotton, thereby, the lotus fibers can be made into various styptic cotton, bandages and gauze; or used as surgical operation suture lines easy to be absorbed by human bodies and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a kind of textile fiber, especially a kind of lotus flower fiber and its application. Background technique [0002] As we all know, natural plant fiber has been an important textile fiber for thousands of years. Even now, natural plant fiber still occupies a large proportion in the total annual output of textile fiber. But natural plant fiber is limited to cotton fiber, hemp fiber, bamboo fiber always, so many years, do not have new natural plant textile fiber to occur always. [0003] Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera), also known as lotus, water hibiscus, etc., belongs to the perennial aquatic herbaceous flowers of the family Nymphaeaceae. It has a cultivation history of at least 7,000 years in China. Its petioles are cylindrical, with dense barbs, long and thick underground stems (lotus roots), long nodes, and round leaf shields. The whole body of the lotus is a treasure. The lotus root, leaves, petioles, stamens, and flower...
