The abrasion-resistant low-noise material prepared in the comparative example and the example is tested for tensile strength, elongation at break, hardness, abrasion resistance and air permeability; the test results are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from the table, the raw material proportion and the manufacturing process adopted by the method can obtain the elastic non-woven fabric with good tensile strength, high wear resistance and good air permeability; can adapt to the surfaces with different shapes and curves, provides better comfort and fit for the obtained non-woven fabric, expands the application environment of the non-woven fabric, and when the hardness of the TPU is increased, the material becomes more rigid and hard. This results in a decrease in the softness and bending properties of the elastic cloth, which results in a loss of a portion of its elasticity. The elastic recovery ability and the tensile property of the elastic cloth are affected, so that the elastic cloth cannot meet specific application requirements. Elastic fabrics are commonly used in applications requiring comfort and fit, such as apparel interlinings, footwear, bedding, and the like. When the hardness of the TPU exceeds a certain range, the comfort of the elastic cloth may be lowered. An increase in stiffness results in an increase in the stiffness of the material, making it feel stiffer when in contact with the skin, potentially reducing the comfort of the user; the reduced stiffness of the TPU means that the material is softer and may result in an elastic nonwoven with insufficient elasticity. The material may be too soft to provide sufficient resiliency and support, thereby affecting its elastic properties. Low hardness TPU materials generally have lower abrasion resistance. In the use of elastic nonwoven fabrics, if the material hardness is too low, it may result in the material surface being easily worn and broken, reducing its durability and service life. Low hardness TPU materials may be more sensitive to chemicals and are susceptible to corrosion and damage. This may limit the use of elastic nonwovens in certain environments, especially in chemical-contacting applications. Low hardness TPU materials can be difficult to handle during processing. Too soft a material may cause difficulties in viscosity and shape control during processing, and special processing methods and techniques may be required; from the above table, it is also clear that the elastic nonwoven fabric obtained in example 4 had the best performance.
Comparative example 1 is different from example 4 in that the number of parts of TPU is increased to 120 parts in step (1) by specific parameters of the process for producing an elastic nonwoven fabric. The elastic properties decrease: too much TPU may cause the elastic nonwoven to become too stiff, losing a portion of its softness and bending properties, reducing the elastic recovery and stretch properties of the material, making it incapable of meeting the specific application requirements. And too much TPU may make the material more tacky and sticky, increasing handling difficulties during processing. Higher temperatures and greater pressures may be required to ensure melting and formation of the material, adding to the complexity and cost of the manufacturing process.
Comparative example 2 differs from example 4 in the specific parameters of the process for making the elastic nonwoven, in step (1), the TPU is replaced by PP.
PP has lower strength and abrasion resistance than TPU. Thus, replacement of the TPU by PP may result in a product with reduced elasticity and softness, losing a portion of its elasticity and resiliency. In addition, TPU has better chemical resistance and can withstand attack by some chemicals. Whereas PP may swell or dissolve in certain chemicals, TPU generally has better thermal stability and can maintain better performance in high temperature environments. However, PP has poor thermal stability and is easily softened and deformed, resulting in limited application fields.
Comparative example 3 is different from example 4 in that the strength and hardness of the elastic nonwoven are affected without the addition of an antioxidant, and the weather resistance is reduced, resulting in a shortened service life of the product in the open air or in a severe environment, affecting the application range and performance of the material.
Comparative example 4 is different from example 4 in specific parameters of the process for producing an elastic nonwoven fabric, in the step (2), temperatures of respective zones of the screw were set, the first zone was 150 ℃, the second zone was 210 ℃, the third zone was 240 ℃, and the fourth zone: 270℃and 300℃in the fifth zone. The viscosity dissipation of deformation energy stored in the flowing melt is increased, the elastic characteristics are weakened, after the melt is extruded through the spinneret orifices, the fiber fineness is reduced, the diameter is reduced, the porosity is reduced, and the air permeability of the material is poor.
Comparative example 5 is different from example 4 in that the specific parameters of the process for producing an elastic nonwoven fabric, in step (4), the metering pump pressure was adjusted to 70MPa, and excessive metering pump pressure would cause an increase in the flow rate of the melt, so that the fiber stretching during spinning became uneven. This may lead to inconsistent fiber thickness and uneven fiber distribution, thereby reducing the quality of the elastic nonwoven, and excessive metering pump pressure may also increase fiber tension during spinning beyond the fiber bearing capacity, resulting in fiber breakage. This can lead to non-uniformity in fiber length and the presence of broken fibers, which reduces the strength and durability of the elastic nonwoven, and fails to meet the requirement of high softness of the material required when the material is applied in the fields of garment liners, medical applications, menstrual pants, sanitary pants, mask base fabrics, and the like.
Comparative example 6 is different from example 4 in that the hot air temperature was set to 100 deg.c in step (5). The temperature of hot air can influence the temperature of a melt through the heat conduction of a spinneret plate on a melt-blowing die head, but when the temperature is too high, the non-woven fabric becomes hard and brittle, and the requirement of high softness of the material can not be met when the material is applied to the fields of clothing lining, medical application, menstrual trousers, sanitary trousers, mask base cloth and the like.
Comparative example 7 is different from example 4 in that in step (5), the distance between the die and the web was 5cm. The distance between the die head and the net curtain determines the crystallization speed and the porosity of the non-woven fabric, and further influences the tearing strength and the transverse and longitudinal tensile force of the non-woven fabric; the distance between the die and the web also affects the degree of fiber draw. A larger distance will allow the fibers to stretch longer during the ejection process, resulting in longer fibers. A smaller distance will reduce the degree of fiber stretching, resulting in shorter fibers. But the distance between the die and the web also affects the orientation of the fibers after ejection. The larger distance can make the fiber more easily receive the external wind force after being sprayed out, thereby making the fiber orientation more parallel. Conversely, a smaller distance may subject the fibers to a greater resistance and the fibers may be more randomly oriented. The orientation of the fibers has an influence on the strength, air permeability, hand feeling and other properties of the non-woven fabric, and cannot meet the application requirements.

Various modifications and changes may be made to the present application by those skilled in the art.
