以下、本発明について詳しく説明する。
本発明で使用するポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維とは、トリメチレンテレフタレート単位を主たる繰り返し単位とするポリエステル繊維からなる短繊維をいい、トリメチレンテレフタレート単位が約50%以上、好ましくは70モル%以上、さらに好ましくは80モル%以上、特に好ましくは90モル%以上のものをいう。従って、第3成分としての他の酸成分および/またはグリコール成分の合計量が約50モル%以下、好ましくは30モル%以下、さらに好ましくは20モル%以下、特に好ましくは10モル%以下の範囲で含有されたポリトリメチレンテレフタレートを含有する。
The present invention will be described in detail below.
The polytrimethylene terephthalate short fiber used in the present invention refers to a short fiber composed of a polyester fiber having a trimethylene terephthalate unit as a main repeating unit, and the trimethylene terephthalate unit is about 50% or more, preferably 70 mol% or more. More preferably 80 mol% or more, particularly preferably 90 mol% or more. Therefore, the total amount of the other acid component and / or glycol component as the third component is about 50 mol% or less, preferably 30 mol% or less, more preferably 20 mol% or less, particularly preferably 10 mol% or less. Containing polytrimethylene terephthalate.
ポリトリメチレンテレフタレートは、テレフタール酸またはその機能的誘導体とトリメチレングリコールまたはその機能的誘導体とを、触媒の存在下で適当な反応条件下に縮合させることにより製造される。この製造過程において、適当な一種または二種以上の第3成分を添加して共重合ポリエステルとしても良いし、またポリエチレンテレフタレートなどのポリトリメチレンテレフタレート以外のポリエステル、ナイロンなどとポリトリメチレンテレフタレートを別個に製造した後、ブレンドしたり、複合紡糸(鞘芯、サイドバイサイドなど)しても良い。 Polytrimethylene terephthalate is produced by condensing terephthalic acid or a functional derivative thereof with trimethylene glycol or a functional derivative thereof in the presence of a catalyst under suitable reaction conditions. In this production process, one or two or more appropriate third components may be added to form a copolyester, or polyester other than polytrimethylene terephthalate such as polyethylene terephthalate, nylon, etc., and polytrimethylene terephthalate may be separated. After being manufactured, they may be blended or composite-spun (sheath core, side-by-side, etc.).
添加する第3成分としては、脂肪族ジカルボン酸(シュウ酸、アジピン酸)、脂環族ジカルボン酸(シクロヘキサンジカルボン酸など)、芳香族ジカルボン酸(イソフタル酸、ソジウムスルホイソフタル酸)、脂肪族グリコール(エチレングリコール、1,2−プロピレングリコール、テトラメチレングリコールなど)、脂環族グリコール(シクロヘキサングリコールなど)、芳香族ジオキシ化合物(ハイドロキノンビスフェノールAなど)、芳香族を含む脂肪族グリコ−ル(1,4−ビス(β−ヒドロキシエトキシ)ベンゼンなど)、脂肪族オキシカルボン酸(p−オキシ安息香酸など)などが挙げられる。また、1個または3個以上のエステル形成性官能基を有する化合物(安息香酸などまたはグリセリンなど)も重合体が実質的に線状である範囲で使用できる。 As the third component to be added, aliphatic dicarboxylic acid (oxalic acid, adipic acid), alicyclic dicarboxylic acid (cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, etc.), aromatic dicarboxylic acid (isophthalic acid, sodium sulfoisophthalic acid), aliphatic glycol (Ethylene glycol, 1,2-propylene glycol, tetramethylene glycol, etc.), alicyclic glycol (cyclohexane glycol, etc.), aromatic dioxy compounds (hydroquinone bisphenol A, etc.), aromatic glycols containing aromatics (1, 4-bis (β-hydroxyethoxy) benzene), aliphatic oxycarboxylic acid (p-oxybenzoic acid, etc.) and the like. In addition, compounds having one or three or more ester-forming functional groups (such as benzoic acid or glycerin) can also be used within a range in which the polymer is substantially linear.
さらに、ポリトリメチレンテレフタレートには、二酸化チタンなどの艶消し剤、リン酸などの安定剤、ヒドロキシベンゾフェノン誘導体などの紫外線吸収剤、タルクなどの結晶化核剤、アエロジルなどの易滑剤、ヒンダードフェノール誘導体の抗酸化剤、難燃剤、制電剤、顔料、蛍光増白剤、赤外線吸収剤、消泡剤などを含有させても良い。 In addition, matriminating agents such as titanium dioxide, stabilizers such as phosphoric acid, UV absorbers such as hydroxybenzophenone derivatives, crystallization nucleating agents such as talc, lubricants such as aerosil, and hindered phenols are included in polytrimethylene terephthalate. Derivative antioxidants, flame retardants, antistatic agents, pigments, fluorescent brighteners, infrared absorbers, antifoaming agents, and the like may also be included.
本発明に用いられるポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維の繊度は、0.05〜6dtexである。0.05dtex未満では、風合いは柔らかくなるものの、抄紙工程における水流の影響を受けやすく、地合い悪化の原因となるため好ましくない。一方、6dtexを超えると、風合いが硬くなったり、不織布に占める繊維の構成本数が少なくなり、好ましくない。好ましくは、0.6〜3.3dtexである。 The fineness of the polytrimethylene terephthalate short fibers used in the present invention is 0.05 to 6 dtex. If it is less than 0.05 dtex, the texture becomes soft, but it is not preferred because it is easily affected by the water flow in the paper making process and causes deterioration of the texture. On the other hand, if it exceeds 6 dtex, the texture becomes hard and the number of fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric decreases, which is not preferable. Preferably, it is 0.6 to 3.3 dtex.
また、上記ポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維の繊維長は、2〜20mmであり、好ましくは3〜10mmである。2mm未満では、不織布としての強度が得られにくいため好ましくない。一方、20mmを超えると、抄紙法による繊維分散が極めて悪くなり、地合い悪化の原因となるため好ましくない。 Moreover, the fiber length of the said polytrimethylene terephthalate short fiber is 2-20 mm, Preferably it is 3-10 mm. If it is less than 2 mm, it is difficult to obtain the strength as a nonwoven fabric, which is not preferable. On the other hand, if it exceeds 20 mm, fiber dispersion by the papermaking method becomes extremely poor, which causes deterioration of the texture, which is not preferable.
本発明に用いられるポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維の捲縮については、ストレート繊維、捲縮を付与した繊維のどちらでも良い。通常、ストレート繊維は抄紙法の工程安定性、捲縮繊維は嵩性向上のために各々用いられている。 About the crimp of the polytrimethylene terephthalate short fiber used for this invention, either a straight fiber or the fiber which gave the crimp may be sufficient. Usually, straight fibers are used for process stability of the papermaking method, and crimped fibers are used for improving bulkiness.
本発明の不織布において、上記ポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維の比率は重量比率で50%以上である。50重量%未満では、ポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維の有する特徴を発揮することが不十分となり、本発明である柔軟性に優れた不織布を得ることができないため好ましくない。 In the nonwoven fabric of the present invention, the ratio of the polytrimethylene terephthalate short fibers is 50% or more by weight. If it is less than 50% by weight, the characteristics of the polytrimethylene terephthalate short fibers are not sufficiently exhibited, and the nonwoven fabric excellent in flexibility according to the present invention cannot be obtained, which is not preferable.
本発明の不織布を構成する他の繊維としては、特に限定される事はなく、天然パルプ、合成パルプ、レーヨン、ナイロン、ポリエステル、ビニロンなどの湿式不織布に使用されている素材を適応することができる。 Other fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric of the present invention are not particularly limited, and materials used in wet nonwoven fabrics such as natural pulp, synthetic pulp, rayon, nylon, polyester, vinylon, etc. can be applied. .
本発明の不織布は、上記のポリトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維を湿式不織布(抄紙)となした後、これに高圧水流処理を施したものであることが大切である。乾式不織布製造法による場合では、地合の均一な不織布、特に目付の小さい不織布は得られないので好ましくない。また、高圧水流が施されていない場合には、得られる不織布の破断強伸度が低下し、一方高圧水流処理でなく、例えばニードルパンチのような交絡処理では、繊維の交絡性が低下して本発明の目的とする柔軟性不織布は得られない。 It is important that the nonwoven fabric of the present invention is obtained by forming the above-mentioned polytrimethylene terephthalate short fiber into a wet nonwoven fabric (papermaking) and then subjecting it to a high-pressure water stream treatment. In the case of the dry nonwoven fabric production method, a uniform nonwoven fabric, particularly a nonwoven fabric with a small basis weight cannot be obtained, which is not preferable. In addition, when the high-pressure water flow is not applied, the breaking strength and elongation of the resulting nonwoven fabric is reduced, while the entanglement treatment such as needle punching is not performed in the high-pressure water flow treatment, and the fiber entanglement is reduced. The flexible nonwoven fabric which is the object of the present invention cannot be obtained.
湿式抄紙する方法としては、従来公知の方法をそのまま採用すればよく、例えば短繊維を離解機を用いて水中に均一に分散させ、得られたスラリーを常法に従って抄紙となせばよい。
また、高圧水流処理を施す方法としては、例えば、前述で得られた湿式不織布(抄紙)を、未乾燥の水分を含んだ状態で100メッシュ以下のネットに移送し、ノズル径0.2mmのノズルから10〜40kg/cm2 、好ましくは15〜25kg/cm2 の高圧水流を一方の面から噴射処理し、同時に他方の面から吸引(真空吸引)することにより水を脱水し、次いで、ノズル径0.1mmのノズルから30〜100kg/cm2 、好ましくは40〜60kg/cm2 の高圧水流を前記の面と同一の面から噴射処理、好ましくは複数回噴射処理し、同時に他方の面から吸引(真空吸引)することにより水を脱水し、引き続いて、この一連の操作を他方の面からも行う方法を採用すればよい。
As a wet papermaking method, a conventionally known method may be employed as it is. For example, short fibers may be uniformly dispersed in water using a disaggregator, and the resulting slurry may be made into papermaking according to a conventional method.
Moreover, as a method of performing the high-pressure water flow treatment, for example, the wet nonwoven fabric (papermaking) obtained above is transferred to a net of 100 mesh or less in a state containing undried moisture, and a nozzle having a nozzle diameter of 0.2 mm is used. 10 to 40 kg / cm 2 , preferably 15 to 25 kg / cm 2 of high pressure water flow is sprayed from one surface and simultaneously sucked (vacuum suction) from the other surface to dehydrate the water, and then the nozzle diameter 30~100kg / cm 2 from 0.1mm nozzle, preferably injection handle high pressure water flow 40~60kg / cm 2 from the surface and the same surface, preferably a plurality of times the injection process, at the same time suction from the other surface A method of dehydrating water by (vacuum suction) and subsequently performing this series of operations also from the other surface may be adopted.
高圧水流処理した不織布は、さらに吸引脱水後絞りローラーを通過させ、引き続いてドラム型乾燥機や熱風式乾燥機にて乾燥すればよい。 The non-woven fabric subjected to the high-pressure water flow treatment may be further passed through a squeezing roller after suction dehydration, and subsequently dried with a drum-type dryer or a hot-air dryer.
なお、上記抄紙工程と高圧水流工程とは、連続で行っても非連続で行ってもよいが、不織布の生産性を考慮した場合、非連続で行うことが望ましい。この場合には、抄紙工程で得られる不織布を一旦乾燥させて巻き取る必要がある。
この場合には、不織布の取扱い性を向上させるため、芯鞘型複合繊維や熱水可溶性のバインダー繊維、特にポリビニルアルコール系バインダー繊維を少量、例えば3〜15重量%、好ましくは3〜5重量%(不織布を基準とする)の範囲で併用しておくことが好ましい。このようなバインダー繊維は、不織布の製造が完了した時点で、80〜90度の熱水で処理して溶解除去することにより、柔軟性の良好な不織布となすことができる。なお、かかるバインダー繊維の繊度および繊維長は、前記オリゴマーとトリメチレンテレフタレート短繊維と同程度であることが、地合の均一な湿式不織布を得るうえで好ましい。
The paper making process and the high-pressure water flow process may be performed continuously or discontinuously. However, in consideration of the productivity of the nonwoven fabric, it is preferable to discontinuously perform the process. In this case, the nonwoven fabric obtained in the paper making process needs to be once dried and wound up.
In this case, in order to improve the handleability of the nonwoven fabric, a small amount, for example, 3 to 15% by weight, preferably 3 to 5% by weight, of a core-sheath type composite fiber or a hot water-soluble binder fiber, particularly a polyvinyl alcohol-based binder fiber. It is preferable to use in combination within the range (based on the nonwoven fabric). Such a binder fiber can be made into a nonwoven fabric with good flexibility by treating with hot water of 80 to 90 degrees and dissolving and removing it when the production of the nonwoven fabric is completed. In addition, it is preferable that the fineness and fiber length of this binder fiber are the same level as the said oligomer and trimethylene terephthalate short fiber, in order to obtain a wet nonwoven fabric with uniform formation.
本発明においては、上述の様にして得た柔軟性不織布は、さらに目付が30〜300g/m2 、好ましくは50〜200g/m2 、かつ剛軟度が2〜6cm、好ましくは2.5〜4cmの性能を有していることが必要である。目付が30g/m2未満では、高圧水流を施すときに、繊維脱落があるため好ましく、一方、300g/m2を超えると、得られた不織布の剛性が高くなる傾向にあるため好ましくない。また、剛軟度が2cm未満では、シートとして腰がなさ過ぎるため好ましくなく、一方、6cmを超えると、剛性が高くなる傾向にあるため好ましくない。
なお、本発明の不織布において、剛軟度を本発明の範囲内にするには、繊維構成や高圧水流処理の条件によって調整が可能である。
In the present invention, the flexible nonwoven fabric obtained as described above further has a basis weight of 30 to 300 g / m 2 , preferably 50 to 200 g / m 2 , and a bending resistance of 2 to 6 cm, preferably 2.5. It is necessary to have a performance of ˜4 cm. When the basis weight is less than 30 g / m 2, it is preferable because there is fiber dropping when a high-pressure water flow is applied. On the other hand, when it exceeds 300 g / m 2 , the resulting nonwoven fabric tends to have high rigidity, which is not preferable. Further, if the bending resistance is less than 2 cm, it is not preferable because the sheet is too stiff. On the other hand, if it exceeds 6 cm, the rigidity tends to increase, which is not preferable.
In addition, in the nonwoven fabric of this invention, in order to make bending resistance into the range of this invention, it can adjust with the conditions of a fiber structure and a high pressure water flow process.
なお、上記熱処理の方法は、抄紙工程で通常使用されるような、ヤンキードライヤー、多段ドライヤー、ハイカレンダー(ローラー素材:メタル/メタル)、セミカレンダー(ローラー素材:金属/ペーパー、金属/弾性ゴム)を使用することができる。
また、本発明の不織布は、単層でも多層でも特に限定されないが、加工の安定性を考慮し、2〜5層構造であることが好ましい。
In addition, the above-mentioned heat treatment method is a Yankee dryer, multi-stage dryer, high calender (roller material: metal / metal), semi-calendar (roller material: metal / paper, metal / elastic rubber), which is usually used in the papermaking process. Can be used.
Moreover, although the nonwoven fabric of this invention is not specifically limited, even if it is a single layer or a multilayer, it is preferable that a 2-5 layer structure is considered in consideration of the stability of a process.
