In order to improve the salt resistance,detergent resistance and antibacterial properties of alginate fibers (AL),AL fibers were modified by boric acid (BA) cross-linking and zinc sulfate heptahydrate (ZnSO4·7H2O) post-treatment processes.The effects of different contents of BA and ZnSO4·7H2O on fiber morphological,salt resistance,detergent resistance and antibacterial properties were investigated,respectively.The results showed that the surface groove structure of AL fibers became unremarkable after BA and ZnSO4·7H2O modification,the fiber surface was smoother,and the salt and detergent resistance were also significantly improved.With the increase of BA content,the swelling rates of AL fibers decreased from 118.57% to 60.34% in NaCl solution and from 126.31% to 63.89% in phosphate-free WOB standard detergent solution,respectively.After ZnSO4·7H2O post-treatment,Zn2+ was adsorbed into the M unit of SA (β-D-glucuronate),which destroyed the bacterial cell membrane,and the antibacterial rates of AL fibers against E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus increased greatly to 99.99%.The prepared modified AL fibers presented excellent salt resistance and detergent resistance as well as antibacterial properties,which are expected to be used in the field of antibacterial functional textiles.
