The present disclosure discloses a phase-change flame-retardant fiber material for thermal management of a lithium ion battery in a closed space and a preparation method. The phase-change flame-retardant fiber material is prepared in a coaxial electrostatic spinning manner and includes a composite phase-change fiber material PASA-TPU at a core part and a flame-retardant fiber material TB-PAN wrapping a surface of the core part. The composite phase-change fiber material is well wrapped with the flame-retardant fiber material, and the lithium ion battery wrapping the whole phase-change flame-retardant fiber material in the closed space is subjected to charge-discharge cycle; the result shows that the surface temperature of the battery can be effectively reduced by about 20° C. by the material, and the material can effectively play a role in multiple cycle processes; the whole material has an excellent and stable heat absorption effect, and has no leakage and collapse; and the phase-change flame-retardant fiber material only has thermal shrinkage and blackening phenomena and is not combusted after being ignited by open fire for over 20 s. Therefore, the phase-change flame-retardant fiber material of the present disclosure has a relatively good flame-retardant effect compared with other phase-change materials.

A textile recycling method receives textile-waste-to-be-recycled, sorts the waste to isolate cellulose-containing articles from non-cellulose-containing articles, and re-sizes at least some of the cellulose-containing articles to create feedstock. The feedstock is processed in a cellulose solvent reactor, which has at least one ionic liquid. The ionic liquid dissolves intermolecular cellulose bonds of the feedstock to create a spinning dope. Cellulose fibers dissolved in the cellulose-bearing spinning dope solution are extruded in a cellulose coagulation bath reservoir to reconstitute at least some of the cellulose fibers, and the reconstituted fibers are wet-spun to form a continuous cellulose thread that is commercially indistinguishable from virgin fiber thread. Synthetic fiber material is vacuum-extracted or mechanically extracted from the cellulose-bearing solution and recycled into a continuous synthetic thread. Original color of textile-waste-to-be-recycled can be retained or removed, and new color can be added.

There is provided a synthetic polymer fibre having an amorphous phase of at least 10% of the crystallinity ratio. The synthetic polymer fibre includes 0.1 to 5.0 wt. % of a biodegradation—inducing additive with respect to the total weight of the synthetic polymer fibre. The biodegradation-inducing additive is incorporated in the amorphous phase such that the biodegradation-inducing additive is physically and/or chemically accessible for a biodegradation initiation to form nuclei of biodegradation within the amorphous phase.
