Abstract

The invention relates to a cobweb-imitated hollow spindle section microfiber device with a water collection characteristic and a preparation method, the cobweb-imitated hollow spindle section microfiber device with the water collection characteristic is composed of an inner phase feeding pipe, a middle phase feeding pipe and an outer phase feeding pipe which are coaxial and a discharging pipe, and a dextran solution containing calcium chloride, a dextran solution containing calcium alginate and liquid paraffin are respectively pumped into the inner phase feeding pipe, the intermediate phase feeding pipe and the outer phase feeding pipe. On the basis of hydrodynamics, alginic acid and a calcium chloride solution are mixed in a pipeline to be subjected to gelation reaction by utilizing a chemical principle that sodium alginate and calcium chloride react to generate calcium alginate hydrogel; a periodic spindle joint structure is formed by utilizing the shearing force of an oil-water interface, and water collection is performed by virtue of a Laplace pressure difference and a surface energy level gradient; and the water collection effect of the fiber is enhanced by utilizing the capillary water absorption effect. The preparation method disclosed by the invention is simple, low in cost, high in experimental repeatability, beneficial to batch production, safe in preparation process and high in material biocompatibility.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bionic materials, in particular to a spider silk-like hollow spindle knuckle microfiber device with water-collecting properties and a preparation method. Background technique [0002] Freshwater scarcity is a global crisis, affecting about two-thirds of the world's population. Although my country's total fresh water resources rank sixth in the world, the per capita fresh water resources are only a quarter of the world average. For arid regions, the shortage of fresh water resources not only affects economic development but may even threaten national security. [0003] In nature, some organisms have evolved special surface structures through long-term natural selection, which can collect water from fog. With its unique structure, spider silk also exhibits an amazing ability to collect water. In the morning after the rain, the spider web is full of crystal droplets. Spider silk is composed of periodic sp...
