In recent years, there has been significant interest in the study of spandex in high-elasticity sensors. As a new kind of special spandex, dyeable spandex shows strong adsorption capacity for anions. In this study, neutral red G was used as an anion adsorption simulator to study the adsorption mechanism of dyeable spandex on anionic materials. The structure of dyeable spandex was characterized by the modern instrumental analysis method, and the adsorption kinetics and thermodynamics of neutral red G on dyeable spandex were discussed. The results show that the use of mixed amines as chain extenders for dyeable spandex reduced the regularity of molecules and the crystallinity of spandex, which was beneficial to the diffusion adsorption of anions. On the other hand, the number of secondary amino groups increased, providing more adsorption sites under acidic conditions. The adsorption of neutral red G on dyeable spandex satisfied the quasi-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir adsorption model, indicating that dye adsorption on spandex was mainly electrostatic. The diffusion coefficient and equilibrium adsorption capacity of neutral red G on dyeable spandex increased significantly, whereas enthalpy and entropy decreased.

Wool fabrics are preferred over synthetic and cellulosic fibers by consumers because of their good elasticity, warmth, and high moisture sorption. How to use new materials and new methods to break the bottleneck of high pollution and high energy consumption in wool dyeing and finishing, and develop new functional wool materials has become an urgent need of wool development. In this paper, wool is colored and functionalized with antistatic properties using one-step ecofriendly process by superfine graphene oxide (GO). The results of the assembly mechanism show that the adsorption thermodynamic behavior of GO on wool is more consistent with Langmuir model and the process is exothermic similar to the adsorption of conventional acid dyes on wool fibers. The kinetic behavior results indicated that adsorption behavior of GO on wool was identified, and the phenomenon was more in line with the quasi-secondary dynamics model. The antistatic test results showed that the antistatic performance of the wool fabric that was colored by GO was obviously improved and the half-life of the GO colored wool fabric could be as low as 0.17. The strategy of colored fabrics with GO and imparting additional functionality can provide a basis for the ecological processing and formation of wool fabrics with designed functions.
