Description

【技術分野】
【0001】
本発明は、空気力学的方法(以下では「エアレイド法」と呼ぶ)を適用することによって繊維性不織材を製造する方法と、この方法に従って製造された繊維性不織材、並びにこの方法で用いるのに適した短繊維に関する。
【背景技術】
【0002】
当該技術分野では、エアレイド法を適用することによって繊維性不織材を形成することが公知である。これらの方法は、繊維が、開放された後に空気流に移され、その後にスクリーン面上にエアレイドされる乾式方法である。
これまでは、エアレイド法において主にセルロース繊維が用いられ、該セルロース繊維には、ビスコース繊維のような少量の他の繊維が混合される。特に大量のビスコース繊維の使用に関係する1つの問題は、通常のエアレイド機において達成可能な処理量又は処理能力が、セルロース繊維のみが使用されるときより実質的に低いことにある。処理量とは、特定の時間内に搬送空気流に移された繊維の重量を意味する。さらに、目標坪量の大きい偏差が生じ、それにより結果として得られる繊維性不織材の品質が低くなる。
本発明の出願人らは、試験を行って、エアレイド法において市販の品質のビスコース短繊維のみを使用したときには、普通はセルロース繊維を用いて達成可能な処理量の10%より少ない処理量となることを見出した。
【0003】
したがって、より多い量のビスコース繊維を使用するときの処理量の増加を可能にし、それにより製造機械の処理能力をより効果的なものにすることができるエアレイド法が必要とされている。
驚いたことに、本発明の出願人らは、ビスコース短繊維に仕上剤を加えることによって、エアレイド法での処理量を大幅に増加させることができることを見出した。達成される改善は、通常のセルロース繊維の使用によって得られる処理量さえも超えるほどであり、それにより本発明に係る方法は、使用される特定の繊維によらずに一般に適用可能であると考えられる。
当該技術分野では、繊維に仕上剤を加えることが良く知られている。例えば、カーディング法においては、仕上剤が加えられた繊維が用いられる。しかしながら、これは、主に異なる方法であり、その上、長繊維を用いるものである。出願人らの現在の知識によれば、これまでエアレイド法で繊維に仕上剤を用いる理由はなかった。
本発明は、添付の図面を参照しながら以下に詳細に説明される。
【発明の開示】
【0004】
したがって、本発明は、エアレイド法によって少なくとも1層の短繊維含有層を堆積するステップを含む繊維性不織材を製造する方法であって、短繊維の少なくとも一部に、仕上剤を加えた短繊維の繊維重量に基づき0.035重量パーセントより多い量の仕上剤を加えることを特徴とする方法に関するものである。
ここで用いられる繊維性不織材は、不規則な配列の短繊維を含む繊維層となると理解される。短繊維は、ここでは、2から12mmの範囲内の長さをもつ平均繊維であると定義される。ここで用いられる短繊維という用語は、存在しうるバインダ短繊維及び超吸収体繊維を除いて、この方法で用いられる全ての短繊維を含む。ここで用いられる「短繊維含有層」という用語は、層を主に構成する繊維は短繊維であるが、バインダ材料、超吸収体などの付加的な材料がより長い繊維の形態で又は繊維以外の形態で存在する層を意味する。バインダ材料及び/又は超吸収体が存在し、それらが短繊維の形態では存在しない場合には、短繊維は、通常は層の50重量%より多く、典型的には60重量%より多くを占める。短繊維プラスバインダ短繊維及び/又は超吸収体短繊維は、通常は層の90重量%より多く、典型的には95重量%より多くを占める。
【発明を実施するための最良の形態】
【0005】
本発明によれば、短繊維の少なくとも一部に仕上剤が加えられた。一般に、少なくとも5重量%の短繊維に、少なくとも25重量%、例えば少なくとも50重量%といった好ましくは少なくとも10重量%の仕上剤が加えられた。繊維ブレンドの使用の一例は、例えば、好ましくは25%より多い、特に50%より多い、例えば、100%の、処理量が関係している限りは問題を伴うビスコース繊維のような短繊維に仕上剤が加えられたブレンドであり、一方、問題なく用いられる短繊維は仕上剤を含まない。或いは、エアレイド法で用いられる実質的に全ての短繊維に仕上剤を加えることができる。
【0006】
本発明に係る方法の特別な実施形態によれば、短繊維に加えてバインダ材料を空気堆積することができる。ここで用いられるバインダ材料は、通常は、それらの分解又は溶解能力のために短繊維を結合するのに適している材料であると理解される。バインダは、それらがエアレイド法で用いるのに適した程度まで、粉末などの任意の形態で存在することができる。しかしながら、バインダ材料はまた、同様に短繊維、すなわちバインダ短繊維の形態で用いられることが好ましい。
それらの分解能力のために、バインダ繊維として用いるのに適した繊維の例は、ポリビニルアルコール繊維(PVA繊維)とアルギン酸繊維である。それらの溶解能力のために、バインダ繊維として用いるのに適した繊維は、一般に、溶融接着剤又は結合される繊維より低い融点をもつ熱可塑性材料を含む繊維である。溶融バインダ繊維は、フル・プロファイル繊維か又は多成分繊維として用いることができる。好ましい溶融バインダ繊維は、例えば、繊維芯のポリマーより低い融点をもつポリマーからなる繊維鞘を含む二成分繊維といった二成分繊維(BICO繊維)である。こうした繊維の一例は、ポリエステル芯とポリエチレン鞘とを含む二成分繊維である。
【0007】
ここで用いられる「バインダ短繊維」という用語は、2から12mm、好ましくは4から8mmの範囲内の長さを有する繊維に関する。一般に、バインダ短繊維は、1.0から6.0dtex、好ましくは3.0dtexといった2.0から4.0dtexの長さ対重量比を有する。
バインダは、最終製品の所望の特性によって最終的に決まる量で用いられる。したがって、使用されるバインダの量に影響を与えるパラメータは、バインダのタイプ及び結合される繊維又は繊維ブレンドのタイプ、並びに最終製品の強度、柔軟性/剛性及び坪量等である。一般に、使用されるバインダの量は、結合される短繊維とバインダの総重量に基づき1から30重量%、3から10重量%、例えば5から8重量%といった特に1から20重量%である。
【0008】
本発明者らはまた、エアレイド法で用いられる短繊維の含水量が処理量に影響を及ぼすことを見出した。したがって、使用される短繊維は、4から16%の、特に8から12%といった6から14%の含水量を有することが好ましい。水分は、以下に説明される方法に従って測定される。
本発明に係る方法で用いるのに適した短繊維は、当該技術分野では公知の実質的に全ての繊維形式、すなわち、天然繊維、セルロース人工繊維、合成繊維及び無機繊維、並びにこれらの組み合わせを含む。天然繊維の例は、セルロース、綿、ジュート、亜麻、ヘンプ、及びココナッツ繊維のような天然植物性繊維、並びに毛又は絹のような天然動物性繊維である。セルロース人工繊維は、ビスコース繊維、キュプラ繊維及びリヨセル(登録商標)繊維といった再生セルロース繊維を含む。合成繊維は、例えば、ポリオレフィン繊維、ポリエステル繊維、及びポリアミド繊維を含む。無機繊維は、ガラス繊維、ケイ酸塩繊維、炭素繊維、ホウ素繊維及び金属繊維を含む。
【0009】
本発明に係る方法に用いるのに好ましいのは、天然繊維、特に天然植物性繊維と、セルロース人工繊維、特にセルロース繊維、綿繊維、ビスコース繊維及びリヨセル(登録商標)繊維である。
前述のように、本発明に係る方法は、大量のビスコース繊維の使用のために独創的に開発されたものである。本発明の好ましい実施形態によれば、短繊維はビスコース短繊維を含み、少なくとも少量のビスコース短繊維に仕上剤が加えられる。少なくとも20%、さらに好ましくは少なくとも50%のビスコース短繊維に仕上剤が加えられる。例えば、100%のビスコース短繊維に仕上剤が加えられる。
ビスコース短繊維は、多枝の断面、例えば三枝の断面を有することが有利である。こうした繊維は、例えば米国特許第5,643,914号から当該技術分野では公知であり、その開示内容は引用によりここに組み入れられる。三枝の断面をもつ繊維は、例えば、上記の特許の図1から図5に示されている。
【0010】
この実施形態によれば、ビスコース繊維は、短繊維の総重量に基づき85重量%より多い量で、95重量%より多いといった、特に90重量%より多い量で用いられる。例えば、全て、すなわち100重量%のビスコース短繊維が短繊維として用いられる。
ここで定義される短繊維は、2から12mmの範囲内の長さ、好ましくは5から6mmといった4から8mmの範囲の長さを有する。一般に、短繊維は、1.0から6.0dtex、例えば約3.3dtexといった好ましくは2.0から4.0dtexの長さ対重量比を有する。
【0011】
本発明に係る方法においては、加えて超吸収体材料を用いることができる。超吸収体(SAP)は、当該技術分野では周知であり、それによりここではさらに詳しく説明しない。SAPは、普通は、アクリレートベースのポリマーからなり、それらの自重の数倍の水性流体を吸収することができるという点で特徴付けられる。超吸収体材料は、粒子の形態の、好ましくは繊維、特に、2から12mm、特に4から8mmの範囲の長さをもつ短繊維の形態といった、エアレイド法と適合性のある適切な形態のいずれかで、本発明に係る方法で用いられる。超吸収体材料が使用される場合には、使用される量は、短繊維の重量に基づき(存在しうるバインダ短繊維の量を除いて)普通は0.1から50重量%であり、特に5から10重量%である。
【0012】
仕上剤は、仕上剤が加えられた短繊維の重量に基づき0.035重量%より多い量で存在する。ここで用いられる仕上剤の量は、実際に繊維に与えられる繊維製造業者によって示されるような仕上剤の量を構成すると理解される。
したがって、この明細書で示される量は、Soxleth抽出、サンプルの誘導体化(メチル化)、ガスクロマトグラフィ分離及び水素炎イオン化検出器を用いる検出によって求められるような、繊維製造業者(Acordis)の分析値に関連する。
ビスコース繊維に基づく仕上剤の量は、好ましくは0.05重量%より多く、より好ましくは0.10重量%より多く、最も好ましくは0.15重量%より多い。仕上剤の量の上限は、例えば他のプロセス・パラメータの制限のために処理量の更なる増加が全くもって起こらないとき、処理量がほぼ最適であって、それ以上の仕上剤のためのそれ以上のコストが正当であるとは思われないとき、又は高い仕上剤含量が望ましくない製品特性をもたらし又はそれを招くときの量である。したがって、仕上剤の最大量は、使用されるエアレイド機、使用される短繊維又は短繊維ブレンドによって、並びに最終製品及びその所望の特性によって支配される。
【0013】
ビスコース繊維が関係している限り、仕上剤の最大量は、仕上剤が加えられた短繊維の重量に基づき1重量%、0.50重量%といった特に0.75重量%であると現在のところ考えられる。他の繊維形式についても同様の仕上剤の量が考えられる。

【0029】
繊維に存在する仕上剤の影響と、繊維の含水量のより少ない影響が求められる予備試験が行われた後で、表1に示された仕様に係る繊維を製造した。短繊維は、ギロチン法を用いて乾式切断することによって得られた三枝レーヨン繊維(Danofil VY)であり、3.3dtexの長さ対重量比と5mmの長さをもつものであった。使用された仕上剤は、ポリグリコールパルミテートステアリン酸エステルであった。
4つの形成ヘッドと600mmの形成幅とをもつDanwebエアレイドラインを用いてエアレイド不織材を製造するために繊維を用いた。エアレイドラインは、マルチボンディングに、及びラテックス結合され、熱により結合された製品を製造するのに適している。形成ヘッドの孔径は4.5mmであった。

【0030】
エアレイド機の最大処理量を求めるために、形成ヘッドを詰まらせることなく形成ヘッドを通過する最も多い量の繊維が求められる。さらに、坪量は、機械及び横方向の目標値から±10%の最大変動をもって目標値で安定したままでなければならない。最大容量は、繊維給送計量ユニットにて測定された単位時間あたりに形成ヘッドに給送される繊維の最大量である。
水分及び/又は仕上剤値は試験から試験へと増加するので、より高い水分又は仕上剤の量の繊維によるシステムの汚染を防止するために、試験をサンプル1から5へと連続して行った。
各試験において、形成ヘッドで繊維蓄積が起こる時点まで繊維給送を増加させた。この時点までの最後の安定な設定が、エアレイド機の最大処理量である。エアレイド機は、4つの形成ヘッドのうち2つを用いるものであった。試験の結果を表1にまとめる。

5.これらの試験において達成される処理量は、使用されるエアレイドライン上の合成繊維を用いてこれまで得られた全ての結果を超えた。
6.これらの試験において達成された処理量はまた、100%セルロースの最大処理量を超えると推測される。孔径4.5mmのヘッドにおいては、安定したデータはまだ得られていない。4.00mmの孔を有する形成ヘッドのとき、100%の最大値は、1形成ヘッドあたり約80kg/時、すなわち2形成ヘッドあたり160kg/時である。

The present invention relates to an aerodynamic method (hereinafter “ Airlaid The present invention relates to a method for producing a fibrous nonwoven material by applying the method, a fibrous nonwoven material produced according to this method, and short fibers suitable for use in this method.
[Background]
[0002]
In this technical field, Airlaid It is known to form fibrous nonwovens by applying the method. These methods allow the fibers to be moved into the air stream after being released and then onto the screen surface Airlaid Is a dry process.
until now, Airlaid Cellulose fibers are mainly used in the process, and a small amount of other fibers such as viscose fibers are mixed with the cellulose fibers. One problem, particularly related to the use of large amounts of viscose fiber, is the usual Airlaid The throughput or throughput achievable in the machine is substantially lower than when only cellulose fibers are used. By throughput is meant the weight of fibers transferred to the carrier air flow within a specified time. In addition, large deviations in the target basis weight occur, thereby reducing the quality of the resulting fibrous nonwoven material.
Applicants of the present invention conducted a test and Airlaid It has been found that when only commercially available viscose short fibers are used in the process, the throughput is usually less than 10% of the throughput achievable with cellulose fibers.
[0003]
Therefore, it is possible to increase the throughput when using a larger amount of viscose fiber, thereby making the processing capacity of the production machine more effective. Airlaid The law is needed.
Surprisingly, the applicants of the present invention have added a finishing agent to the viscose staple fiber, Airlaid It has been found that the amount of processing can be greatly increased. The improvement achieved is so much that even the throughput obtained by the use of normal cellulosic fibers is exceeded, so that the method according to the present invention is generally applicable regardless of the specific fibers used. It is done.
It is well known in the art to add finishing agents to fibers. For example, in the carding method, a fiber added with a finishing agent is used. However, this is mainly a different method, and additionally, long fibers are used.
