At the International Symposium on new fibers held by the school of materials at Donghua University recently, Zhu Meifang, Dean of the school of materials at Ren Donghua University, said excitedly when interviewed by a media reporter: "the top international seminar in Donghua is chosen because we have discovered the" magic fiber "and gained the leading position in the field of research in this field. This is the pride of Donghua University and the pride of China.

Magic fiber

"Biodegradable"

What is "magical fiber"? Zhu Meifang explains that it is actually a new type of fiber different from traditional concepts.

Nowadays, people wear clothes made of traditional fibers. They come from chemical synthesis and are inorganic fibers. New fibers are materials extracted from organisms, and have good biocompatibility, bioattraction and biodegradability compared with traditional fibers.

At present, extraction from organism

Polymer materials

Mainly PHB and PHBV, these two materials have been widely used in plastics production because of their degradability.

Zhu Meifang's research found that these two organic materials can be spun into fibers and synthesized by nanotechnology, resulting in a "magic fiber".

This research pushed Donghua to the forefront of fiber research.

In 2000, Zhu Meifang's "new PHB bio fiber forming research" was selected in Shanghai Shuguang project.

Last year, she hosted the invention to extract PHBV from corn without any chemical extraction and synthesis process.

So, her "magic fiber" has another name: "corn fiber".

Functional diversity is like myth.

Speaking of the use of "magical fiber", Zhu Meifang described a

clothing

The "future world": when it rains, your clothes will not be a little wet.

Using it to make underwear, a thin layer can withstand the cold.

There is also a kind of "discolouration suit", which will automatically change color in different environments. In the desert, it is yellow, into the forest, and it becomes green again.

The reason why clothes are so magical is the use of "magic fibers".

In addition, it can also be made into biological fibers with a certain degree of stretch.

"My description is not science fiction and myth. It can be done according to theory, but it needs continuous improvement and improvement."

Zhu Meifang said, for example, wet clothes, the existing materials can be done, but its degree of firmness and how to be more comfortable need further study.

Promotion depends on industry, education and research.

Zhu Meifang introduced that the "magic fiber" has already produced the primary products.

Now, some "thin thermal underwear" and "antibacterial clothing" bought by the people on the market come from this new type of fiber.

Zhu Meifang said that through the cooperation of industry, University and research, people will be able to put on all kinds of "magic costumes" in the next few years.
