Description

Apparatus and method for manufacturing collagen yarn with antibacterial function and collagen yarn manufactured by said method The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for manufacturing a collagen yarn having an antibacterial function and a collagen yarn manufactured by said method. More specifically, the invention relates to an apparatus and method for manufacturing a collagen yarn having an antibacterial function capable of ensuring antibacterial properties during the manufacture of the collagen yarn, and a collagen yarn manufactured by said method. Generally, moisturizing function refers to the ability to prevent moisture loss from the skin due to the external environment and is widely used in topical agents such as moisturizers and cosmetics. These moisturizing products incorporate moisture-preventing substances capable of reinforcing moisturizing functions and directly supplying moisture to the skin, or maintaining moisturization by preventing moisture loss from the outer layer of the skin. This function is achieved through various formulations such as gels and emulsions, or through materials such as sheets and processed fabrics that incorporate these properties. Moisturizing textile products can be described as textile products containing substances capable of continuously releasing skincare active ingredients (especially moisturizing performance) to the human body, particularly the skin. In the textile industry, the functions of clothing are expanding in line with the speed of textile technology development. They are no longer merely functional for the human body to wear, but are expanding their role to include beauty, protecting and caring for the body, to the extent that they can truly be referred to as a "second skin." As the development and demand for human-friendly multi-functional textile products are rising rapidly, complex skincare processed products featuring antibacterial and deodorizing properties, prevention of skin aging and atopic dermatitis, and moisturizing treatments are being actively and continuously developed in the textile industry. In such human-friendly skincare moisturizing fiber products for skin protection, many functional substances already used in various fields for cosmetics or medical purposes, such as squalene, collagen, chitosan, hyaluronic acid, ceramide, phospholipid-based polymers, and silk protein, are applied, and they are being developed as moisturizing products to ensure skin contact sensation and prevent atopic dermatitis. For example, Korean Registered Patent No. 476549 discloses features of a skin functional fabric having functions such as high absorption, ultra-quick drying, skin moisturizing, antibacterial deodorizing, and antistatic properties, characterized by a back layer composed of polyolefin or polyethylene fibers, a surface layer composed of spun yarn made by wet spinning of chitosan, highly conductive yarns arranged in stripes at regular intervals on the back layer, and vitamin components existing in the fibers in the form of microcapsules. In addition, Korean registered patent No. 808366 discloses a feature of a circular shape having a patterned portion coated with a functional agent selected from chitosan, alginic acid, gelatin, collagen, PVA, sericin, and an acrylic organic compound. However, since the moisturizing fabric according to the conventional technology described above has lower absorption capacity compared to natural fibers, sweat secreted from the human body and various organic substances adhere to it, providing an environment suitable for the habitation of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. Consequently, the proliferation of these microorganisms leads to problems such as foul odors, discoloration and contamination of textile products, and even diseases caused by human infection. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for synthetic fibers capable of securing antimicrobial properties against microorganisms such as various bacteria and fungi.
