Abstract

A method of preparing oil-absorbing fibers by: a) fully dissolving a dispersant and a deionized water in a reaction vessel, adding a methacrylate monomer and an initiator to a reactor and stirring to form a homogenous solution, transferring the homogenous solution into the reaction vessel, charging nitrogen gas, stirring, raising temperature to 70-80° C., allowing to react for 2-6 hours, raising temperature to 90-100° C., allowing to react for 2-4 hours, collecting a resultant product, washing, drying, and obtaining a white resin; b) drying the white resin, mixing with a swelling agent, and sealing the mixture at room temperature for 48-96 hours to yield a homogenous gel; c) grinding the gel completely, spinning by a plunger spinner, and coagulating with a coagulation bath to yield an as-spun oil-absorbing fiber; and d) drawing the as-spun oil-absorbing fiber with a draw ratio of 2-6 to yield oil-absorbing fibers.
