Description

Flexible sheet material and manufacture method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to flexible sheet material and manufacture method thereof that elastic filament and non-woven fabric compoundedization are formed.
Background technology
As the relevant prior art of flexible sheet material that rubber-like fiber and non-woven fabric compoundedization are formed, for example known technology that patent documentation 1 and 2 records are arranged.Shown in Figure 1 as these documents, the flexible sheet material of putting down in writing in these documents is made of the 1st nonwoven layer the 122, the 2nd nonwoven layer 126 and the elastomer layer between two nonwoven layer 124.Elastomer layer 124 by scrim (scrim), perforated films, elastomer weave cotton cloth, nonwoven constitutes.In Fig. 1 of these documents, to have put down in writing elastomer layer 124 and constituted by elastomer scrim 130, this elastomer scrim 130 is made of orthogonal big flow control 1 strand 125 and big flow control 2 strands 127.Because elastomer layer 124 forms such structure, so the flexible sheet materials of patent documentation 1 and 2 records, when making it along a certain direction elongation, the phenomenon that the sheet width with the prolonging direction vertical direction narrows down can appear, and the phenomenon that width reduces promptly appears.Therefore, when this flexible sheet material was for example used as the housing material of shorts type diaper, material was stretched along the waist direction, width takes place on the length direction of diaper reduce, so the diaper skew easily that becomes drops, or gauffer occurs on the diaper.In addition, consider the formation of diaper and user's action, it causes uneven elongation on width, so width reduces and becomes more obvious.In addition, strand 125,127 and nonwoven layer the 122, the 126th are bonded together by heat and pressure, and therefore, strand 125,127 is absorbed in the nonwoven layer 122,126, thereby diminish the loftiness of nonwoven layer 122,126.Strand 125,127 and nonwoven layer the 122, the 126th are bonded together by the heat that applies from nonwoven 122 or 126 sides and pressure, when therefore bonding, the temperature of the nonwoven side in the outside raises easily, becomes the temperature state lower than the temperature of nonwoven of strand side easily.Therefore, if go for sufficient joint strength, then there is nonwoven because heat and pressure ratio strand melt and the problem of filming earlier.In addition, owing to need and to melt with the resin of the contacted internal fiber of strand, therefore to apply higher temperature or pressure, thereby have the problem that makes the feel variation.If use the high nonwoven of fusing point, then non-woven fabrics fiber itself can not melt, but becomes and the elastomer scrim is difficult to melt bondedly, and the peel strength when therefore making sheet material descends.In addition, dystectic nonwoven is difficult to obtain the good sheet material of soft hand feeling.
As other technology of flexible sheet material, the also known technology that patent documentation 3 records are arranged.The flexible sheet material of putting down in writing in the document such as Fig. 1, Fig. 2 of the document and as shown in Figure 7, by waveform parts 20,21 with gear shape, on sheet material 12, form a large amount of arcuate parts 13, go up melt bonded flexible strand 16 at the top (bottom) of this arcuate part 13.Elastic strands 16 is to be extruded with molten condition from mouth mould 22, and melt bonded with the state and the sheet material 12 that do not stretch.Therefore, elastic strands 16 and sheet material 12 to be to contact joint, thus, improve bond strength and be not easy.In addition, the arcuate part 13 of the flexible sheet material of document record again can not extend after flattening, and the so-called elongation limit is arranged.And then, form arcuate part 13 and make the use quantitative change of sheet material 12 of the lax part of sheet material 12 many, and uneconomical, and gas permeability also reduces.In addition, in the document, put down in writing also and the sheet material 12 before engaging with elastic strands 16 can have been engaged with this elastic strands under the state that can extend with its blank volume state.But it is difficult will carrying out conveyance under the state that does not make its elongation along the tensile nonwoven of moving direction.And, with the flexible sheet material coiling tubular of patent documentation 3 record the time, stress relaxation can take place, promptly since the state that is stretched with the tension force when reeling when preserving for a long time convergent force reduce existing problems aspect keeping quality thus gradually.Add man-hour after different in addition places is implemented this sheet material, if consider operability and conveying property, sheet material coiling tubular then must will stretch.
The elastic sheet material shape composite of patent documentation 3 record is elastic strands not arranged according to the mode of not extending along a direction across mutually to form on a surface of the sheet material that is made of nonwoven etc., described elastic strands during by cooling rubber-like molten thermoplastic (for example elastic system polyester, polyurethane, polystyrene-poly isoprene-polystyrene, polystyrene-poly butadiene-polystyrene or polystyrene-poly (ethene-butylene)-polystyrene) constitute.This multiplicity of filaments does not mutually extend ground along a direction across and arranges the following manufacturing of flexible sheet material that forms: from extruding the long filament of molten condition in vertical with the conveyance direction of sheet material separating a large amount of spinning-nozzles that predetermined distance arranges, and make itself and described sheet material melt bonded.
But in the manufacture method of above-mentioned flexible sheet material, the long filament of extruding with molten condition from spinning-nozzle is before melt bonded with sheet material, and complications take place in the influence owing to wind or static etc. sometimes.Following problems appears in the result: should be in the final products upper edge long filament that directly directly extends of direction join on the sheet material with the state of complications, equally spaced arrange the flexible sheet material that forms thereby can't make a large amount of long filaments.The complications of long filament can be by the long filament that will extrude from spinning-nozzle to stipulate that above tension force carries out tractive and prevents, if will be applied on the long filament of molten condition to preventing the tortuous effectively tension force of degree, then this long filament can rupture (fracture of wire) sometimes, thereby can't carry out the spinning technique of long filament.When particularly the diameter of long filament was thin, the situation that fracture of wire takes place owing to tractive was a lot, and the productivity ratio reduction of flexible sheet material becomes serious.On the other hand, from improving the viewpoints such as feel of flexible sheet material, the diameter that the expectation long filament is arranged is than the commercially available thinner tendency of the employed elastic yarn of absorbent commodities such as diaper.
Put down in writing following method in the patent documentation 4: behind the shaped resilient strand, make this elastic strands, engage with nonwoven then, thereby obtain flexible sheet material with state elongation through cooling curing.Elongated portion by elastic strands is replied, and nonwoven is lax, thereby shows retractility in its length range.Since elastic strands with the curing that is cooled before nonwoven engages, so need carry out applying with nonwoven with bonding agent etc.Therefore, in order to obtain sufficient adhesion strength, need the bonding agent of more amount.If more ground coating adhesive then can be filled out the space between non-woven fabrics fiber, so gas permeability descends.In addition, because with bonding agent with the plurality of fibers bundle together, so rigidity improves.Thereby, be difficult to obtain the sheet material of softness and good permeability.In addition, the flexible sheet material of putting down in writing in the document with so that the common wire rubber elastomer that the state of elastic yarn elongation is fitted has same structure, therefore on flexible sheet material, form rivel, the skin sense of touch is poor, does not have the outward appearance as cloth.Under the state that has formed rivel, nonwoven will be elongated to original state, and elastomer is the state that has extended, thereby stress relaxation takes place, and promptly because convergent force descends gradually with long-time preservation of state of elongation, so contractility reduces during long preservation.In addition, with the operation of compoundization such as nonwoven in, use roller to make the elastic strands elongation or it be rolled in when carrying out conveyance on the roller, exist described elastic strands and be bonded on the described roller or problem such as fracture of wire takes place.
In addition, because this elastomeric strand all becomes thicker, therefore have hard sense of touch, feel is also bad.
Different with above technology, also proposed following elastic and expandable composite sheets: it is (referring to a patent documentation 5) that elastic sheet material that the continuous fiber by the film of elastic extension or elastic extension is constituted and the fiber assembly with stiff extensibility are laminated.Elastic sheet material and fiber assembly are bonded together by the junction surface of configuration discontinuously.The formation fiber of fiber assembly is a long fibre continuous between the junction surface.This long fibre is neither deposited not melt bonded between the junction surface yet, but fiber is separated from each other independence.In addition, this long fibre presents irregular curve-like between the junction surface.
According to patent documentation 5, in this elastic and expandable composite sheets, the long fibre of fiber assembly presents irregular curve-like between the junction surface, and therefore, when making this sheet material elongation, its elongation can not hindered by this fiber assembly.But because the long fibre of fiber assembly is separated from each other independence between the junction surface, so this elastic and expandable composite sheets is low to the intensity of tractive.And the peel strength between fiber assembly and the elastic sheet material is also low.In addition, be easy to generate between the junction surface and long stapledly float, sheet material has been the outward appearance of galley proof thus, and the impression of outward appearance is also bad.

The specific embodiment
Below based on preferred implementation of the present invention, with reference to accompanying drawing the present invention will be described.The partial cross-sectional perspective view of an embodiment of flexible sheet material of the present invention has been shown among Fig. 1.
The flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment amounts to 2 nonwoven by the 1st nonwoven 11 and the 2nd nonwoven 12 and the great number of elastic long filament 13 that is clamped between two nonwoven constitutes.Particularly, flexible sheet material 10 following formations: a large amount of elastic filament 13 of arranging according to the mode of not extending along a direction across mutually engages with the tensile nonwoven 11,12 that the state that does not extend in fact constitutes with containing non-elastic fiber.
Flexible sheet material 10 contains elastic resin.Elastic resin makes flexible sheet material 10 have retractility, is the essential composition of flexible sheet material of the present invention.In the elastic filament and tensile nonwoven as the component parts of flexible sheet material of the present invention, preferably elastic filament contains elastic resin at least.Tensile nonwoven can contain elastic resin, also can not contain elastic resin.As elastic resin, can use thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) for example described later (SBS, SIS etc.) or rubber etc.
The content of elastic resin is preferably above, 70~100 weight % more preferably of 40 weight % in the elastic filament.Thus, can improve the modification (formability improve, anti-oxidant, painted etc.) of elastic resin or improve bond strength between elastic filament and the nonwoven.The content of elastic resin is preferably 0~30 weight %, 0~10 weight % more preferably in the tensile nonwoven.By in nonwoven, containing elastic resin, not only can improve answer intensity, and can improve bond strength by the elastic resin that contains in the nonwoven and the compatibility between the elastic filament resin.In addition, the residual silk during from the sense of hardening, skin sense of touch, tearing, the viewpoints such as bond strength between answer intensity, elastic filament and the nonwoven, the weight per unit area of the elastic resin that is contained in the flexible sheet material of the present invention is preferably 1~25g/m 2, 4~15g/m more preferably 2This weight per unit area is tried to achieve by method described later.
Bond strength between elastic filament 13 and the nonwoven 11 is preferably above, the 20~200cN/25mm more preferably of 10cN/25mm.Bond strength between elastic filament 13 and the nonwoven 12 is also in above-mentioned scope.By making bond strength between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 more than 10cN/25mm, thereby the one sense of flexible sheet material 10 integral body is improved, stretching flexible sheet material 10 or when engaging, can prevent effectively that elastic filament 13 from unfavorable condition such as peeling off from each nonwoven 11,12 with other sheet material.On the other hand,, the expansion performance of flexible sheet material 10 is reduced, therefore preferably the upper limit of this bond strength is made as 200cN/25mm if the bond strength between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 surpasses 200cN/25mm.The following mensuration of above-mentioned bond strength.
The assay method of the bond strength between<elastic filament and the nonwoven 〉
(1) nonwoven is 2 a situation
With flexible sheet material according on its flexible direction for 150mm, on the direction vertical with this flexible direction for the size of 25mm cut test film.This test film should flexible direction be peeled off about 3cm at a nonwoven and another nonwoven upper edge.At this moment, elastic filament is peeled off with the nonwoven that engages more firmly.The test film that so separates the part mode that is draw direction by its flexible direction is fixed between the chuck of distraction test machine (the system Autograph AG-1kNIS of Shimadzu Seisakusho Ltd.) (the chuck spacing is 25mm).Test film is carried out tractive with 300mm/ minute draw rate, reach 160mm, thereby on a nonwoven and another nonwoven, peel off, measure the peel strength of this moment until the chuck spacing.Following calculating between the measurement zone of peel strength: the chuck spacing is set at 35~150mm, and when peel strength is swung in the mode that shows minimax point in this mensuration interval, will be from 5 the bigger average peel strength of average conduct of maximal point (salient point).When not showing minimax point, calculate average peel strength.In addition, as preferred assay method of the present invention, the Autograph AG-1KNIS of use Shimadzu Seisakusho Ltd. system is as the distraction test machine and use the material testing machine software TRAPEZIUM2 of Shimadzu Seisakusho Ltd.'s system to measure, and is average by 5 of salient point maximums, calculates average peel strength.According to this method, no matter can calculate average peel strength showing minimax and do not show under the situation of minimax.Measurement is carried out 5 times, with their mean value as the bond strength between elastic filament and the nonwoven.
(2) nonwoven is 1 a situation
When test film being fixed between the chuck of distraction test machine, on a chuck, install and fix elastic filament, on another chuck, install and fix nonwoven, in addition, similarly carry out with above-mentioned (1).
Flexible sheet material 10 for present embodiment, bond strength between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 in above-mentioned scope, the state that further makes elongation 50% from flexible sheet material 10 along a direction (bearing of trend of elastic filament 13) to the opposite direction of prolonging direction shrink 25% o'clock should flexible sheet material 10 the per unit area weight of the above-mentioned elastic resin that preferably contains the flexible sheet material 10 of intensity (hereinafter referred to as " 25% replys intensity ") with respect to this be 1.0cN/{50mm (g/m 2) above, 2.0~10cN/{50mm (g/m more preferably 2).Reply intensity by making 25% of flexible sheet material 10, per unit area weight with respect to the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material 10, in above-mentioned scope, particularly when housing material that is used for disposable diaper etc., flexible sheet material 10 can easily extend with less external force when dressing diaper, and therefore, diaper is dressed easily, and owing to show the answer intensity of appropriateness, so the fit of diaper becomes good under the state in just dressing.25% of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin that is contained in the flexible sheet material is replied the following mensuration of intensity.
25% of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin that is contained in<flexible the sheet material is replied the assay method of intensity 〉
Try to achieve 25% of the sheet material that stretches by method described later and reply intensity,, try to achieve 25% answer intensity of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material thus then divided by the weight per unit area of the elastic resin in the sheet material that should stretch of trying to achieve in addition.The weight per unit area of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material is tried to achieve divided by the area of flexible sheet material by the addition of the elastic resin when making this flexible sheet material.In the time can from flexible sheet material, extracting elastic resin, can obtain the weight per unit area of the elastic resin of flexible sheet material with following method by using solvent etc.That is, utilize solvent etc. from flexible sheet material, to extract elastic resin, obtain the component ratio of this extraction composition with analyses such as NMR.Content by the elastic resin of calculating from this withdrawal ratio is tried to achieve the weight per unit area of elastic resin divided by the area of flexible sheet material.According to this method, can extract the elastic resin that contains in the elastic filament that constitutes flexible sheet material, and when in the tensile nonwoven that constitutes flexible sheet material, containing elastic resin, also can extract the described elastic resin that contains in the described nonwoven, thereby can measure the weight per unit area of the elastic resin that is contained in the flexible sheet material exactly.
Bond strength between elastic filament 13 and the nonwoven 11,12 is more than the 10cN/25mm and 25% answer intensity of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material 10 is 1.0cN/{50mm (g/m 2) above flexible sheet material can make by manufacture method described later.Obtaining having aspect the flexible sheet material of the balance excellence between above-mentioned interlayer bond strength and the expansion performance particularly importantly, in its manufacturing process, " before the elastic filament of molten condition solidifies, make this elastic filament and nonwoven melt bonded ".That is, elastic filament 13 and nonwoven 11,12 are bonded together by melt bonded, help to show above-mentioned bond strength and 25% to a great extent and reply intensity.The flexible sheet material that engages by the engagement means beyond described elastic filament melt bonded between elastic filament and the nonwoven, for example heating pressurization with the two overlapping state by the elastic filament after will solidifying and nonwoven with them in the integrated flexible sheet material that forms, the formation fiber of nonwoven being absorbed in elastic filament is insufficient, therefore is difficult to take into account above-mentioned bond strength and 25% and replys intensity.
For 25% of the per unit area weight that makes bond strength between elastic filament 13 and the nonwoven 11,12 and the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material 10 is replied intensity respectively in above-mentioned specific scope, as concrete method, can list for example following method: in manufacture method described later, 1) grip strength when engaging elastic filament and nonwoven adjusts; Gap between the pair of rolls of using during 2) to joint elastic filament and nonwoven is adjusted; 3) top of this spinning-nozzle when the elastic filament with molten condition is spun by the spinning-nozzle distance till the kneading portion elastic filament and the nonwoven is adjusted etc.By carrying out above-mentioned 1)~3) in any, can remain in shape under the state to a certain degree elastic filament is engaged with nonwoven elastic filament.In general, when long filament that will be thinner as the present invention engages with nonwoven, compare with the situation that nonwoven engages,, sustain damage especially easily when therefore engaging because long filament is thinner with the film that will be wider than long filament far away.This damage is meant that the sectional area of elastic filament on the flexible direction of flexible sheet material reduces.Elastic filament is owing to be subjected to such damage, and the answer intensity that therefore flexible sheet material takes place reduces.But, according to above-mentioned 1)~3) method, can not produce above-mentioned unfavorable condition, can make above-mentioned bond strength and 25% reply intensity and be in respectively in the above-mentioned specific scope.
The bond strength of the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 in above-mentioned scope and the per unit area weight of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material 10 25% reply intensity in above-mentioned scope, further the average splice ratio between the fiber (nonwoven formation fiber) of preferred elastomeric long filament and the tensile nonwoven 11,12 of formation is 10~60%, more preferably 20~50%.The flexible sheet material of this average splice ratio in above-mentioned scope has sufficient peel strength, simultaneously by between elastic filament and the fiber that constitutes this nonwoven engage and the hard sense that produces can not become obviously, thereby the feel excellence.In addition, by this average splice ratio is set in the above-mentioned scope, can make the expansion performance of stretchable sheet material 10 approach the expansion performance of elastic filament 13 self.The weight per unit area that contains the elastic resin in the common flexible sheet material of elastic resin film is 30~80g/m 2(it is 0.6cN/{50mm (g/m that 25% of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material 10 is replied intensity 2)), relative therewith, flexible sheet material of the present invention can be used the more 25% higher answer intensity and the bond strength of elastic resin acquisition of subsection area weight.
In order to make elastic filament and above-mentioned nonwoven constitute average splice ratio between the fiber in above-mentioned spy's scope, as concrete method, except above-mentioned 1)~3) method, also can list following method: the melt temperature (forming temperature) that 4) makes elastic resin than this fusing point that nonwoven constitutes the low melting point composition that fusing point is minimum in the fiber high 125 ℃~180 ℃; 5) fibre density of the fiber that constitutes nonwoven is compared with common fibre density low, is 0.05~0.12g/cm 3Deng.By as above-mentioned 5) reduce the fibre density of the fiber that constitutes nonwoven, can under the melt bonded and flexible situation that does not hinder elastic filament and nonwoven surface fiber, obtain replying the high sheet material of intensity.The following mensuration of average splice ratio between the fiber of elastic filament and formation nonwoven.
The assay method of the average splice ratio between the fiber of<elastic filament and formation nonwoven 〉
Bonding part for 1 elastic filament and nonwoven, under 100~1000 times multiplying power SEM being carried out in the cross section of the flexible sheet material direction vertical with flexible direction observes, try to achieve bonding part that elastic filament and nonwoven constitute fiber length (unassembled girth) respectively, utilize following formula to obtain the joint ratio of 1 elastic filament along the disengaged part of the length (girth that is engaged) of the circumferencial direction of described elastic filament and elastic filament and nonwoven formation fiber along the circumferencial direction of described elastic filament.
The joint ratio (%) of 1 elastic filament={ girth that is engaged/(girth that is engaged+unassembled girth) } * 100
The mean value of n=10 in each SEM observation is constituted the average splice ratio of fiber as elastic filament and nonwoven.
Be back to Fig. 1, the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment amounts to 2 nonwoven by the 1st nonwoven 11 and the 2nd nonwoven 12 and a large amount of elastic filament 13 of being clamped between two nonwoven constitutes.Each elastic filament 13 engages with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12.The 1st nonwoven 11 and the 2nd nonwoven 12 can be nonwoven of the same race, also can be nonwoven not of the same race.Here said nonwoven of the same race is meant that the manufacturing process, nonwoven of nonwoven constitute each all identical nonwoven such as the thickness of the kind of fiber, the fibre diameter that constitutes fiber or length, nonwoven or weight per unit area.In above-mentioned at least one is called nonwoven not of the same race when inequality.In addition, the elasticity among the present invention is meant following character: can extend, and from respect to the state of raw footage elongation 100% (length be raw footage 200%) release force the time, return back to the length of raw footage below 125%.
Each nonwoven 11,12 is all extending.Each nonwoven 11,12 can extend on the direction identical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.The so-called extending following situation that comprises: the situation of the formation fiber of (1) nonwoven 11,12 self elongation; (2) do not extend even constitute fiber self, but be separated from each other or owing to fiber combination each other etc. makes the stereochemical structure recurring structure variation that is formed by plurality of fibers or constitutes that fiber is broken or the slack of fiber is stretched, thereby the situation of extending on the whole at nonwoven at the fiber of intersection point place combination.
Each nonwoven 11,12 also can with the state of blank volume before elastic filament 13 engages under be tensile.Perhaps can be following nonwoven: though with the state of blank volume before elastic filament 13 engages under be not tensile, according to after the tensile mode that becomes after elastic filament 13 engages is processed, thereby become tensile nonwoven.As being used to make the nonwoven tensile concrete grammar that becomes, can listing between heat treatment, roller the engaging-in stretching that stretches, utilize teeth groove or gear, utilizing the tractive stretching of stenter etc.Preferable production process in view of flexible sheet material 10 described later, the viewpoint that the conveyance of the described nonwoven 11,12 from will make elastic filament 13 and nonwoven 11,12 melt bonded the time becomes good, preferred nonwoven 11,12 is not extending under the state of blank volume.
Each nonwoven 11,12 is extending, and contains stiff in fact fiber, thereby comes down to stiff.
Each elastic filament 13 is continuous in fact on the total length of flexible sheet material 10.Elastic filament 13 contains elastic resin.Each elastic filament 13 is arranged according to the mode of not extending along a direction across mutually.But because the inevitable change of creating conditions of flexible sheet material 10, the situation that elastic filament 13 inadvertently takes place to intersect allows.Each elastic filament 13 then can extend with linearity as long as do not intersect mutually, also can extend circuitously.Long filament does not intersect mutually and is meant almost there is not intersection point.If intersection point is arranged, a large amount of fibers are then arranged between intersection point and the intersection point, but usually industrial, the situation of the length unanimity of the fiber that exists between intersection point is rarely found.If under the different state of the length of the fiber that exists between intersection point, extend, then only understand the short fiber stress application of length contained between antinode, even dispose a lot of fibers, also can produce the fiber that much has neither part nor lot in stretching.When the fiber of identical weight compared, the more convergent force of the intersection point of fiber was little.Therefore, wasted cost.Consider only flexible in the vertical situation, when having fiber in the horizontal as netted, it is useless that horizontal fiber not only becomes, and produce above-mentioned intersection point, similarly also producing useless part in the fiber longitudinally.The bearing of trend of elastic filament 13 can be consistent with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 moving direction during fabrication, also can be vertical with nonwoven 11,12 moving direction during fabrication.When making flexible sheet material 10 according to preferable production process described later, the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13 is consistent with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 moving direction during fabrication.
Elastic filament 13 engages with nonwoven 11,12 with the state that does not extend in fact.These nonwoven 11,12 are extending.Because elastic filament 13 engages with nonwoven 11,12 with the state of not elongation, thus the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment have can not produce relax (creep) that cause by elongation, be the advantage that retractility is difficult to reduce.And, when for example after making elastic filament 13 be elongated to 2 times, fitting with nonwoven 11,12, suppose to be returned to initial 1.3 times, then can only be elongated to 1.54 times from this state, but when under elongation state not, fitting, because the initial initial point difference when making flexible sheet material elongation, therefore have the extending length that may be elongated to nonwoven 11,12 or be elongated to the advantage of the maximum elongation rate of elastic filament 13.
Elastic filament 13 engages also with nonwoven 11,12 under the state of not elongation and has the following advantages.The for example following manufacturing of the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment: will be in fact not the elastic filament 13 of elongation state engage with the nonwoven 11,12 of elongation state not, and temporarily batch as blank and roll up, (at this moment, the nonwoven 11,12 of the not elongation state that has engaged with elastic filament 13 is for non-retractility), this blank volume is sent, carry out stretch process (for example teeth groove stretching) in other operation, making not, the nonwoven 11,12 of elongation state becomes tensile nonwoven.Under the state of above-mentioned blank volume, it is not extend and non-retractility that this blank is rolled up, and elastic filament 13 is not produced external force.Even the result has and preserves above-mentioned blank volume for a long time the lax advantage that caused by elongation can not take place yet.
Elastic filament 13 can be the synthetic rubber silk or the natural rubber of wire.It perhaps can be the long filament that obtains by dry spinning (melt spinning) or wet type spinning.Wherein, in view of preferable production process described later, the long filament that elastic filament 13 does not preferably temporarily batch it or preserves and directly obtains by melt spinning.
The molten resin that elastic filament 13 preferably will spray from nozzle stretches at spinning threadling and obtains.By stretching, the macromolecule that constitutes elastic filament 13 carries out molecularly oriented along the length direction of this elastic filament 13, and therefore, elongation/answers during 50% elongation described later is than raising, and hysteresis loss diminishes.In addition, by stretching, can obtain thin elastic filament.From this viewpoint, elastic filament 13 preferably is stretched to 1.1~400 times, especially preferably is stretched to 4~100 times long filament.Relative therewith, in the patent documentation 3 in front, the elastic strands of extruding with molten condition from the mouth mould engages with sheet material under the state that does not stretch, so the hysteresis loss of this elastic strands is inadequately little.In addition, in patent documentation 4, when stretching,, therefore there is the problem of elastic strands generation curling round the roll owing to the direct touch roll of adhering resin.
Particularly, elastic filament 13 preferably stretches elastic resin and forms under fusion or softening state.Thus, can obtain the long filament of abundant refinement, and because reason described later, feel improves.In addition, by elastic resin is stretched under fusion or softening state, behind applying nonwoven 11,12, the elastic filament 13 that reaches normal temperature does not show the power that desire is shunk, and becomes state same when elastic filament 13 is engaged with nonwoven 11,12 under the state that does not extend.As the concrete operations that stretch in the present embodiment, can list following operation: (1) will carry out melt spinning as the resin of elastic filament 13 raw materials, obtain undrawn yarn earlier, elastic filament with this undrawn yarn heats once more then, the operation that stretches under the state more than the softening temperature (glass transition temperature Tg of hard segment part (hard segment)); (2) will carry out melt spinning as the resin of the raw material of elastic filament 13, the operation that the fiber of gained molten condition is directly stretched.If make flexible sheet material 10 according to preferable production process described later, then elastic filament 13 can directly stretch by the fiber of the molten condition that will obtain behind the melt spinning and obtain.
Elastic filament 13 preferred its diameters that obtain by the stretching after the spinning are 10~200 μ m, are preferably 20~130 μ m especially.This scope is to consider the productivity ratio of the feel of flexible sheet material 10 and elastic filament 13 and definite.Specifically, if the diameter of elastic filament 13 is excessive, then feel the difference in height of bringing by elastic filament 13 during the flexible sheet material 10 of contact easily.This difference in height plays negative interaction to the feel of flexible sheet material 10.From this viewpoint, the diameter of elastic filament 13 is more little, and the easy more feel of only feeling each nonwoven 11,12 is therefore preferred.In addition, reduce by the light transmission that makes nonwoven, the masking function that can have so-called body fluid color, on this meaning, also preferred elastomeric long filament 13 is thinner.In addition, in the elasticity performance that aftermentioned utilizes tooth space roller to carry out is handled, diameter by making elastic filament 13 below the gap of tooth between tooth space roller and tooth (as preferred gap, from the viewpoint of the durability that improves tooth with improve viewpoint by the stretching ratio of engaging-in amount decision, gap smaller is below the 250 μ m, and more preferably 200 μ m are following), elastic filament is difficult for sustaining damage (be full of cracks or fracture) when stretching, and is therefore preferably thinner.The diameter of elastic filament is preferably 0.2~1, is preferably 0.2~0.5 especially with the ratio in above-mentioned gap.Especially, the diameter of elastic filament 13 is thin more, and it is easy more that its manufacturing becomes.Consider these, the diameter of elastic filament 13 is preferably in above-mentioned scope.
The viewpoint that never produces above-mentioned difference in height is set out, and the diameter of elastic filament 13 on the thickness direction of flexible sheet material is preferably 1~30%, is preferably 5~12% especially with respect to the ratio of the thickness of flexible sheet material 10.
The cross section of elastic filament 13 can be circular, also can be the cross section of ellipse or flat pattern according to different situations.When for example making flexible sheet material 10 according to manufacture method described later, there is the tendency that is easy to become flat pattern in the cross section of elastic filament 13.At this moment, in flexible sheet material 10, elastic filament 13 is preferably as follows configuration: the in-plane of the major axis of flat pattern and flexible sheet material 10 is roughly equidirectional, and the thickness direction of minor axis and flexible sheet material 10 is roughly equidirectional.
When the cross section of elastic filament 13 is flat pattern, from the viewpoint that the masking function of bond strength between the formation fiber of expansion performance, elastic filament 13 and nonwoven 11,12 and flexible sheet material 10 increases, the ratio of major axis/minor axis (average flat ratio) is preferably 1.0~7.0, is preferably 1.1~3.0 especially.The cross section is that the elastic filament 13 of flat pattern disposes according to the roughly consistent mode of its long axis direction and the in-plane of flexible sheet material 10.In addition, when the cross section of elastic filament 13 was flat pattern, the diameter of elastic filament 13 was meant the average of major diameter and minor axis diameter.The major axis that has in the elastic filament 13 of flat pattern is meant, the length of long cross line in the periphery of the elastic filament of selecting by microscopic examination 13.Minor axis in the elastic filament 13 is meant, describes to have the both sides parallel with the major axis of as above determining and the length of the minor face during with the circumscribed rectangle of above-mentioned periphery.5 point elasticity long filaments are arbitrarily measured above-mentioned value, with the mean value of flat ratio as average flat ratio, with the mean value of diameter value diameter value as elastic filament.
Elastic filament 13 also preferably is colored as the different color of color with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12.Can reach following design effect thus: elastic filament 13 can see through the 1st nonwoven 11 and/or the 2nd nonwoven 12 is seen, and flexible sheet material 10 presents the striped style.Such effect becomes more remarkable especially when the thickness of each nonwoven and weight per unit area are in scope described later.
From flexible sheet material 10 show sufficient retractility viewpoint, show as the viewpoint of the excellent handle of cloth and from showing the viewpoint of above-mentioned design effect as required, the spacing of adjacent elastic filament 13 (distance between the adjacent elastic filament 13), diameter with this elastic filament 13 is a condition in above-mentioned scope, is preferably 0.1~5mm, is preferably 0.4~1mm especially.
Elastic filament 13 engages with each nonwoven 11,12 on its whole length.In other words, the junction surface between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 forms on the total length of the length direction of this elastic filament 13 continuously.Here, " on its whole length, engage " and be meant, the all fibres that contacts with elastic filament 13 (the formation fiber of nonwoven 11,12) does not need to engage with this elastic filament 13, but, the formation fiber of elastic filament 13 with nonwoven 11,12 engaged on elastic filament 13, there not to be the form of the disengaged portion that forms intentionally.By elastic filament 13 is engaged with each nonwoven 11,12, can fully improve the engaging force between elastic strands 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 on its whole length.As a result, even stretch flexible sheet material 10, also be difficult to elastic filament 13 is peeled off from each nonwoven 11,12.If elastic filament 13 is peeled off from each nonwoven 11,12, then under nature (relaxed state), between elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12, produce and float, on flexible sheet material 10, produce gauffer easily, thereby lack one sense as flexible sheet material 10 integral body.
As the engage pattern of elastic filament 13, can list for example melt bonded etc. with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12.If make flexible sheet material 10 according to preferable production process described later, then elastic filament 13 engages with each nonwoven 11,12 by melt bonded.So-called melt bonded, comprise elastic filament with the mutual fusion of fiber that constitutes nonwoven 11,12 bonding state, perhaps any one party fusion, the opposing party are absorbed in wherein and these two kinds of bonding states.According to this method, can each nonwoven 11,12 not applied under the situation of excessive heat, before the curing of the elastic filament 13 that obtains by melt spinning, make this elastic filament 13 melt bonded with nonwoven, therefore only be that the fiber that exists around this elastic filament 13 engages with this elastic filament 13, and keeping the feel of nonwoven 11,12 away from the fiber of this position, therefore have the advantage that the feel of flexible sheet material 10 is well kept.At this moment, at each nonwoven 11,12 with before elastic filament 13 engages, as auxiliary engagement means, can also coating adhesive.Perhaps, with after elastic filament 13 engages,, can also heat-treat (steam sprays, heat embossing) or machinery interweave (needle point method, jet net-spraying method) etc. at each nonwoven 11,12 as auxiliary engagement means.But these auxiliary engagement means are damaged the feel of the flexible sheet material 10 of gained sometimes, or elastic filament 13 is caused damage.Therefore, preferably that elastic filament 13 is melt bonded by its melting heat and nonwoven 11,12.But, as the assist in engagement means, when using when blowing the attached heat treatment that forms by the hot blast that utilizes the hot blast method, can under the situation of the feel of not damaging the flexible sheet material 10 of gained, still obtain the high sheet material of bond strength of nonwoven 11,12, be preferred from this point.
Flexible sheet material 10 can stretch on the direction identical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.The retractility of flexible sheet material 10 is owing to the elasticity of elastic filament 13 shows.When the sheet material 10 that will stretch stretches on the direction identical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13, elastic filament 13 and 11,12 elongations of the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven.When discharging the stretching of flexible sheet material 10 then, elastic filament 13 shrinks, and along with it shrinks, the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 is returned to the state before stretching.
Different with the sheet material of record in aforementioned patent document 1 and 2, in the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment, do not exist with other elastic filament of the combinations of states vertical with elastic filament 13.Therefore, even the sheet material 10 that will stretch stretches on the direction identical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13, this flexible sheet material 10 also can extend under the situation that width reduces not taking place substantially.That is, flexible sheet material 10 is under its extended state, and width is much the same on its length direction.As a result, add man-hour at the sheet material 10 that will stretch with its elongation state conveyance and to it, it is good that operability becomes.In addition, when sheet material 10 housing material as for example shorts type diaper that will stretch uses, can prevent from effectively that diaper from taking place to be offset to drop or gauffer takes place in wearing with process.In addition, if consider the formation of diaper and user's action, though uneven elongation takes place on width, this moment width can not take place substantially yet and reduce, can prevent the diaper skew effectively or gauffer takes place.Width reduced scale when from this viewpoint, flexible sheet material 10 being elongated to 1.5 times be preferably width before the elongation 1%~10%, be preferably 1%~5% especially.Width reduces and can obtain with (width before the width ÷ elongation after the 1-elongation) * 100.The following mensuration of width after the elongation.Sample is roughly cut by width 50mm along the mode (differential seat angle is in 15 degree) of moving direction according to its length direction.Length surpasses 150mm.Remain at width under the state of 50mm, the length direction both ends of sample are spaced apart 150mm and control to control sample.At this moment, attention will make that sample is lax on its length direction not to be extended yet.From this state, will control at interval and be stretched to 1.5 times, measure the width of the length direction central portion of sample at this moment, this is worth as the width after the elongation.
Fig. 2 (a) and (b) showing in the flexible sheet material 10 of an embodiment of the invention along the longitdinal cross-section diagram of the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.Fig. 2 (a) and (b) shown in embodiment be during elasticity performance in the manufacturing process of flexible sheet material 10 is handled, the form that significantly shows when using teeth groove to stretch.Fig. 2 (a) is the longitdinal cross-section diagram of the flexible sheet material 10 under the nature (relaxed state), and Fig. 2 (b) is the longitdinal cross-section diagram of the flexible sheet material 10 under the elongation state.Under nature, flexible sheet material 10 is top 14 ' and paddy portion 14 " wave-like of arranging alternately.Top 14 ' with paddy portion 14 " by crest line portion 15 ' link to each other.With respect to top 14 ' and paddy portion 14 " thickness, crest line portion 15 ' thickness smaller slightly, therefore than top 14 ' and paddy portion 14 " easier printing opacity.When overlooking flexible sheet material 10, top 14 ', crest line portion 15 ' and paddy portion 14 " extend towards the direction vertical with the prolonging direction of flexible sheet material 10.Therefore, in flexible sheet material 10, under its nature, by the crest line portion 15 of easy printing opacity ' and with the top 14 that is difficult to printing opacity than it ' and the travers style that paddy portion 14 produces indistinctly occur.This travers style can become more obvious owing to conditions such as flexible sheet material 10 elongations and elasticity described later performance processing.
That is, shown in Fig. 2 (b), in the flexible sheet material 10 of elongation state, along the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13, high weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15 are alternately arranged.Each several part 14,15 extends with band shape respectively on the direction vertical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.High weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15 were alternately arranged with the constant cycle.For high weight per unit area part 14, to the last side-prominent part of sheet material 10 with to the following side-prominent part alternate configurations of sheet material 10.To the last side-prominent high weight per unit area part 14 of sheet material 10 come from top 14 in the sheet material 10 of the nature shown in Fig. 2 (a) '.And come from paddy portion 14 in the sheet material 10 of the nature shown in Fig. 2 (a) " to the following side-prominent high weight per unit area part 14 of sheet material 10.In addition, low weight per unit area part 15 come from crest line portion 15 in the sheet material 10 of the nature shown in Fig. 2 (a) '.In high weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15, on the printing opacity degree, there are differences owing to their weight per unit area difference.As a result, flexible sheet material 10 is presented on the upwardly extending travers style in the side vertical with the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13, design height.Particularly, as previously mentioned, flexible sheet material 10 also presents the striped style that is produced by elastic filament 13, therefore flexible sheet material 10 also presents the cancellate style that combines of this striped style and the striped style that is produced by high weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15, and design further improves.In addition, as Fig. 2 (a) with (b),, filling fiber in the outstanding part of the upside of sheet material 10 or downside as preferred implementation of the present invention.
High weight per unit area part 14 is compared with low weight per unit area part 15, and weight per unit area is big and thickness is also big.Thus, high weight per unit area part 14 is different with the printing opacity degree at low weight per unit area part 15 places, owing to this difference presents the striped style.Each high weight per unit area part 14 comes down to wait width to each other, and similarly, each low weight per unit area part 15 also comes down to wait width to each other.
The thickness of high weight per unit area part 14 is preferably 0.3~10mm, is preferably 0.5~1mm especially.From the viewpoint of expansion performance and gas permeability, the thickness of low weight per unit area part 15 is preferably 0.1~3mm, is preferably 0.2~0.6mm especially.Determination of thickness is that flexible sheet material 10 is placed more than 2 days under 20 ± 2 ℃, the environment of 65 ± 5%RH zero loadly, obtains with following method then.At first, the sheet material 10 that will stretch is stretched to 1.5 times to prolonging direction, under this state, with 0.5cN/cm 2Load be clipped between flat board.Under 50~200 times multiplying power, observe the cross section with microscope, obtain the average thickness in each visual field respectively, try to achieve above-mentioned thickness with the form of the average thickness value in three visuals field.High weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15 can easily form when making flexible sheet material 10 according to manufacture method described later.
Below, the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 that constitutes flexible sheet material 10 and the constituent material of elastic filament 13 are described.Fiber as constituting each nonwoven 11,12 can use stiff in fact fiber.As its example, can list the fiber of formations such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyester (PET or PBT), polyamide etc.The fiber that constitutes each nonwoven 11,12 can be that short fiber also can be a long fibre, can be hydrophilic also can be hydrophobic.In addition, can also use core-sheath-type or parallel type composite fibre, cut apart fiber, profiled fibre, crimped fibre, heat-shrinkable fibre etc.These fibers can be used alone, and also can make up two or more the use.Each nonwoven 11,12 can be the nonwoven of continuous filament yarn or short fiber.Particularly, make the viewpoint of the bulk sheet material of thickness from the sheet material 10 that will stretch, each nonwoven 11,12 is preferably the nonwoven of short fiber.When flexible sheet material 10 is used as the parts that contact with skin, can use the staple fiber nonwoven fabric of good hand touch, use the nonwoven of high-intensity continuous filament yarn at its opposing face at the skin contact side.
Each nonwoven 11,12 preferred its constitutes fiber and is made up of more than the composition low melting point composition and two of high-melting-point compositions.At this moment, bonding by the heat fusing of low melting point composition at least, it constitutes fiber and engages at fiber intersection point place each other.As the composite fibre by low melting point composition and two core-sheath-types that constitute more than the composition of high-melting-point composition, preferred core is dystectic PET, PP, and sheath is low-melting PET, PP, PE.Especially when using these composite fibres, with the melt bonded grow of elastic filament 13, be difficult to cause peeling off between the two, therefore preferred.
The thickness of each nonwoven 11,12 is preferably 0.05~5mm, more preferably 0.1~1.0mm, 0.15~0.5mm more preferably.Determination of thickness can followingly be carried out: with 0.5cN/cm 2Load be clipped between flat board, under 50~200 times multiplying power, observe the cross section of the sheet material 10 that stretches with microscope, obtain the average thickness in each visual field respectively, obtain above-mentioned thickness with the form of the average thickness value in three visuals field.The thickness of sheet material integral body can be tried to achieve by the distance of measuring between flat board.From viewpoints such as feel, thickness and design, the weight per unit area of each nonwoven 11,12 preferably is respectively 3~100g/m 2, be preferably 10~30g/m especially 2
From viewpoints such as feel, viscosity, each nonwoven 11,12 preferably is made of stiff in fact fiber.As the ratio of the non-elastic fiber in the nonwoven, can for more than the 70 weight %, be preferably more than the 90 weight %, 100 weight % more preferably.In addition, stiff in fact fiber also can contain elastic resin in non-resilient resin, the ratio of non-resilient resin can for more than the 70 weight %, be preferably more than the 90 weight %, 100 weight % more preferably.Especially, as stiff fiber, preferably use in the longitudinal direction the different fiber of fineness degree of fiber (following this fiber is called not sizing fiber).That is, the sizing fiber is not when its length direction is seen, (diameter) big part is amassed in existing fibre section, also has the fibre section to amass (diameter) little part.In sizing fiber not, its diameter (sectional area) can change to the best part continuously from the part of minimum.Perhaps, also can be as observed necking in the stretching process of undrawn yarn, the diameter of fiber (sectional area) is with roughly stepped variation.Diameter (sectional area) with fiber has been shown with an example of the non-elastic fiber of the state of stepped variation roughly among Fig. 3.
As raw material, this is preferred from the viewpoint that can obtain the high flexible sheet material 10 of maximum intensity to non-elastic fiber with the fiber of high elongation rate (for example the maximum elongation rate of fiber is 80~800%, is in particular 120~650%) with constant fibre diameter.The elongation of fiber rate is according to JIS L-1015, and with the benchmark that is determined as under the following condition: promptly measuring ambient temperature and humidity is 20 ± 2 ℃, 65 ± 5%RH, and the grip separation of distraction test machine is 20mm, and draw rate is 20mm/min.In addition, to measure percentage elongation be representative to gather fiber from the nonwoven of having made, when grip separation can not be located at 20mm, during the fibre length of promptly being measured is not enough 20mm, chuck is located at 10mm at interval or 5mm measures.
The fiber of above-mentioned high elongation rate is preferably the low non-elastic fiber that stretches.With the low non-elastic fiber that stretches is raw material, when making the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment according to manufacture method described later, in elasticity performance processing procedure, stretch, can in fiber, produce thinner part, thereby form above-mentioned not sizing fiber by the fiber that will hang down stretching.The result, in the elasticity performance processing procedure of the flexible sheet material of present embodiment, nonwoven becomes the form that structurally stretches easily, pass through drawing of fiber, whole nonwoven fabric construct all becomes and stretches easily, to be controlled at irreducible minimum to the destruction at the abutment of the interfibrous abutment of sizing, each nonwoven 11,12 and elastic filament 13 not, and can when keeping telescopicing performance, improve the intensity of flexible sheet material 10.Promptly can obtain having concurrently high elongation rate and high-intensity flexible sheet material 10.In addition, the interfibrous joint of above-mentioned not sizing also is difficult to destroyedly in elasticity performance processing procedure, and this also has the effect that makes each nonwoven 11,12 be difficult to fluff.This viewpoint from the outward appearance of the flexible sheet material 10 of raising present embodiment is favourable.Relative therewith, for the elastic and expandable composite sheets of patent documentation 5 records of describing in the background technology part, be difficult to extend owing in stretching process, constitute fiber, so fiber deposited or mechanical complexing each other can not realize.As a result, the intensity of sheet material reduces, and can not have high elongation rate and high strength concurrently.
In addition, be raw material by fiber with above-mentioned low stretching, and to compare before the tensile fiber, the radical of fine fibre (length) increases in fact.Thus, the opaqueness of the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment improves.Be difficult to see through the viewpoint that face sheet is seen the masking performance of the body fluid that is absorbed bulk absorption from raising, it is favourable that the opaqueness of flexible sheet material 10 improves when the face sheet of sheet material 10 as absorbent commodities such as sanitary napkin or disposable diapers that for example will stretch uses.
In addition, if the fineness degree of sizing fiber does not periodically change, then also have following additional effect: promptly the surface of each nonwoven 11,12 presents fine sinuous state, and its skin sense of touch becomes good.At this moment, the cycle of variation, be thicker part divide with the thicker part adjacent branch with it between distance be preferably 0.5~10mm, be preferably 2~5mm especially.This cycle can be measured from the microscopic examination of each nonwoven 11,12.Here, the mensuration of the diameter of sizing fiber can not measured according to the order of following (1)~(5).
(1) sampling nonwoven 11 or nonwoven 12 zone more than the lip-deep 5mm * 5mm of flexible sheet material 10.The sample of this moment can cut off nonwoven 11,12 and gather from elastic filament 13, also can gather flexible sheet material 10 integral body.
(2) sample of gathering is fixed on the observation of SEM with on the sample bench.At this moment, for easy observation sample, also can be under state with the degree of stretch sample that do not destroy structures of samples (up to the degree of the lax disappearance of nonwoven), sample is fixed on the sample bench with double faced adhesive tape.For the amount of tension of this moment, when for example in the manufacturing process of flexible sheet material 10, utilizing elasticity performance treatment process, be the following degree of stretching ratio of the precursor of the flexible sheet material 10 that stretches in the stretching process.
(3) SEM observes and carries out under 200 multiplying power.The visual field area that makes 1 place be about 0.4mm * 0.4mm more than, observe 5 places.
(4) extract fiber randomly out, being unit with 0.1 μ m upwards measures diameter every 10 μ m ground at fiber axis, measure altogether more than 20 places (fiber each other melt bonded point or the part of destruction be not included in the mensuration).Fiber is measured in each visual field more than 4, amounting to 20 and measure 5 visuals field.
(5) from these values, select the maximum gauge separately and the minimum diameter of 10 fibers.
The maximum gauge of 1 fiber and the difference of minimum diameter be 1 μ m, to fiber axis to position and the relation between diameter variation when mapping, greatly position or minimum position are that the above fiber in 2 places is called unsetting fiber.
From making the viewpoint of each above more remarkable effect, not the fineness degree of sizing fiber be preferably at the thinnest part place 2~15 μ m, more preferably 5~12 μ m, be preferably 10~40 μ m, 12~30 μ m more preferably at the thickest part place.The difference of the maximum gauge of sizing fiber and minimum diameter is not preferably more than the 3 μ m, is preferably more than the 5 μ m especially, especially is preferably more than the 10 μ m.In addition, the ratio with " maximum fiber diameter/minimum fiber diameter " defined fibre diameter is preferably 1~15, more preferably 1.2~10, more preferably 2~5.
Melt bonded intensity is not higher than this not intensity during 100% elongation of sizing fiber between preferred its fiber of sizing fiber.Thus, in the elasticity performance treatment process when sheet material 10 is stretched in manufacturing, when the flexible sheet material 10 before will stretching stretches with enforcement elasticity performance processing, be difficult to cause the destruction of the fiber melt bonded point each other of the flexible sheet material 10 before the elasticity performance is handled, the intensity that shows preceding flexible sheet material 10 with elasticity is compared, the intensity that shows the flexible sheet material 10 of treatment process acquisition through above-mentioned elasticity is difficult for reducing, and is preferred from this point.Melt bonded intensity can be measured according to the record of [0040] paragraph of formerly applying for TOHKEMY 2004-218183 communique of the applicant.Intensity during 100% elongation can be used the distraction test machine, measure under as 20mm, the condition of draw rate as 20mm/min between chuck.
The non-elastic fiber of above-mentioned low stretching comprises: fiber that is stretched with low stretching ratio after the spinning and the fiber that does not stretch, promptly not drawing of fiber the two.As the low fiber that stretches, preferably to use its percentage elongation be aforesaid 80~800% fiber, especially preferably use percentage elongation is 120~650% fiber.Have the fiber of low stretching of the percentage elongation of this scope by use, this fiber can successfully be stretched in stretching device shown in Figure 5 22 described later, can easily form not sizing fiber.The fibre diameter of the low fiber that stretches is preferably 10~35 μ m, is preferably 12~30 μ m especially.
As previously mentioned, the sizing fiber is not a raw material with the fiber of low stretching with constant fibre diameter preferably.At this moment, the low fiber that stretches can be the fiber that is made of single raw material, also can be to use the composite fibre of raw material, for example core-sheath-type composite fibre or parallel composite fiber more than 2 kinds.If consider the easiness that engages of easiness that sizing fiber not is engaged with each other, each nonwoven 11,12 and elastic filament 13, preferably use composite fibre.Under the situation of composite fibre that is core-sheath-type, preferred core is that polyester (PET or PBT), polypropylene (PP), sheath are low-melting polyester (PET or PBT), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE).Especially, when using these composite fibres, contain under the elastomeric situation of polyolefin at elastic filament 13, the bonding enhancing of heat fusing between the formation fiber of elastic filament 13 and each nonwoven 11,12 is difficult to cause and layer peels off, and is preferred from this point.

Below, with reference to Fig. 5 the preferable production process of the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment is described.In this manufacture method, will be from spinning-nozzle 16 the great number of elastic long filament 13 of spun molten condition with the fixing speed tractive and stretch, and before this elastic filament 13 solidifies, the modes of not arranging along a direction across mutually according to this this elastic filament 13 make this elastic filament and nonwoven 11,12 melt bonded, then the melt bonded complex 19 that this elastic filament 13 arranged is carried out the elasticity performance along the bearing of trend of this elastic filament 13 and handle, thereby make this non-woven fabric compounded body 19 have retractility.
Spinning-nozzle 16 is arranged on the spinneret 17.Spinneret 17 is connected with extruder.Also can supply with resin to spinneret 17 by gear pump.Utilize the elastic resin of this extruder melting mixing to be supplied to spinneret 17.On spinneret 17, a large amount of spinning-nozzles 16 are configured to row with linearity.Spinning-nozzle 16 is along the width configuration of the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12.The interval of adjacent spinning-nozzle 16 is equivalent to the interval of elastic filament 13 in the flexible sheet material 10 of target.It is circular that spinning-nozzle 16 is generally, and its diameter (internal diameter) can have influence on the diameter and the stretching ratio of elastic filament 13.From this viewpoint, the diameter of spinning-nozzle 16 (internal diameter) is preferably 0.1~2mm, is preferably 0.2~0.6mm especially.In order to improve and the bond strength of nonwoven 11,12, the expansion performance that improves the spinnability of elastic filament 13 and improve the sheet material 10 that stretches, also elastic filament 13 can be made complex morphological (parallel type, core sheath, island structure).Specifically, the preferably combination of the elastomer resin of the elastomer resin of PP system and polystyrene.
The elastic filament 13 of spun molten condition collaborates with spun the 1st nonwoven 11 of mutually the same speed and the 2nd nonwoven 12 respectively with from the blank volume, is clamped in then between two nonwoven 11,12 and with fixing speed and carries out tractive.The draw rate of elastic filament 13 is consistent with the speed that spins of two nonwoven 11,12.The draw rate of elastic filament 13 can have influence on the diameter and the stretching ratio of this elastic filament 13.The tension force that elastic filament 13 is produced by stretching can prevent flying away of this elastic filament 13 of being caused by wind or static when this elastic filament 13 is fitted with nonwoven 11,12.Thus, each elastic filament is not arranged each other across along a direction.From these viewpoints, the draw rate of elastic filament 13 preferably is adjusted into respect to the resin spouting velocity in the spinning-nozzle hole, and its stretching ratio is 1.1~400 times, be in particular 4~100 times, further be 10~80 times.
Elastic filament 13 is before it solidifies, promptly collaborate with the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 under the bonding state of melting.As a result, elastic filament 13 is melt bonded with the state and the above-mentioned nonwoven 11,12 that are clamped in 11,12 of the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven.That is, when the nonwoven 11,12 that makes elastic filament before solidifying and conveyance is melt bonded, with elastic filament 13 tractives and stretch.When elastic filament 13 is melt bonded, the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 is not applied heat from the outside.That is, the melting heat that is only produced by the bonding elastic filament 13 of melting is melt bonded with this elastic filament 13 and two nonwoven 11,12.As a result, it is melt bonded only to be present in elastic filament 13 fiber and this elastic filament on every side in the formation fiber of two nonwoven 11,12, and the fiber that is present in away from this position does not take place melt bonded.As a result, therefore the thermal control that will apply two nonwoven 11,12 can keep the good hand feeling that this nonwoven self had originally in irreducible minimum.Thus, the feel of the flexible sheet material 10 of gained becomes good.
The elastic filament 13 of spun molten condition is with before nonwoven 11,12 contacts from spinning-nozzle 16, the displacement L that this elastic filament 13 is started at from the top 16a of this spinning-nozzle 16 (elastic filament 13 of spinning-nozzle top 16a and molten condition and nonwoven 11,12 be the beeline between its contact site 11a, the 12a when contact at first, referring to Fig. 6) is preferably below the 600mm, be preferably 100~500mm especially.The displacement L of the elastic filament 13 by making molten condition is below the 600mm, make this elastic filament and nonwoven melt bonded reliably before can solidifying at the elastic filament of molten condition, thereby can obtain the flexible sheet material of balance excellence between interlayer bond strength and the expansion performance more reliably, bond strength between promptly flexible being hit by a bullet property of sheet material long filament and the nonwoven is more than the 10cN/25mm, and 25% answer intensity of the per unit area weight of the elastic resin in the flexible sheet material is 1.0cN/{50mm (g/m 2) more than.In addition, the displacement L of the elastic filament 13 by making molten condition is more than the 100mm, by with fusion elastic filament 13 coolings improve the viscosity of elastic resin, thereby make elastic filament 13 between niproll 18a, 18b, be difficult to be damaged by pressure.Thus, can make elastic filament 13 and constitute average splice ratio between the fiber of tensile nonwoven 11,12 in aforementioned preferred range.On the other hand, the displacement L of the elastic filament 13 by making molten condition is below the 600mm, therefore long filament can be because of static or wind etc. fly away, and the occurrence frequency step-down of bonding, the overlapping or filament breakage between the long filament etc. preferably is made as 600mm with the upper limit of this displacement L.
The adjustment of displacement L can be by spinning-nozzle and/or niproll the adjustment of position carry out.In the present embodiment, elastic filament 13 and the melt bonded following of nonwoven 11,12 carry out: will be from spinning-nozzle 16 the described elastic filament 13 of spun molten condition and the described nonwoven in the conveyance 11,12 between a pair of niproll 18a, 18b, collaborate and pass through.In the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment, as mentioned above, elastic filament 13 engages with nonwoven 11,12 on its whole length, in this manufacture method, in order to realize such joint form, niproll 18a, 18b as a pair of use the roller that does not have concavo-convex drum on the roller periphery respectively.
In the process before spun elastic filament 13 and the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 interflow, this elastic filament 13 is stretched, and molecule is orientated on draw direction.And diameter diminishes.By molecularly oriented, elongation/answer elastic filament 13 littler of intensity in the time of can obtaining 50% elongation than (aforesaid A/B).From the viewpoint and the viewpoint that prevents the fracture of wire of elastic filament 13 of abundant tensile elasticity long filament 13, also can blow the wind (hot blast, cold wind) of attached set point of temperature to adjust the temperature of this elastic filament 13 to spun elastic filament 13.
The stretching of elastic filament 13 also is not only the stretching (fusion drawn) of material resin under molten condition, also can be the stretching (the softening stretching) under the soft state in its cooling procedure.Molten condition is meant the state that resin can flow when applying external force.The melt temperature of resin is by determination of viscoelasticity (for example measuring being clipped in the vibration deformation that resin between circular parallel flat board applies direction of rotation), measure with the form of the peak temperature of Tan δ.For fracture of wire does not take place when elastic resin stretches, guarantee more longways to get final product between drawing zone.From this viewpoint, the melt temperature of elastic resin is preferably 130~300 ℃.In addition, from the stable on heating viewpoint of elastic resin, melt temperature is preferably below 220 ℃.In order to improve resin flow to optimize formability, the forming temperature of elastic filament 13 (temperature of mold) be preferably material resin melt temperature+more than 50 ℃, because hear resistance, above-mentioned forming temperature be preferably material resin melt temperature+below 110 ℃.Softening temperature is measured with the form of the Tg temperature in the viscoelastic property of the mensuration sample of the elastic resin of making sheet.Scope from the softening temperature to the melt temperature is called soft state.In addition, the state of temperature that will be lower than softening temperature is called solid state.The viewpoint that the expansion performance of the flexible sheet material 10 that crystal growth, the body temperature of elastic resin cause during from the preservation of flexible sheet material 10 reduces, softening temperature be preferably more than 60 ℃, more preferably 80 ℃~180 ℃.
Bonding in order to carry out fibers melt reliably, the temperature of elastic filament 13 was preferably more than 100 ℃ when elastic filament 13 engaged with nonwoven 11,12, more preferably more than 120 ℃, more preferably more than 140 ℃.In addition, to obtain the viewpoint of the good flexible sheet material 10 of expansion performance, the temperature of elastic filament is preferably below 180 ℃ from the shape that keeps elastic filament 13.The scope below 160 ℃ more preferably.Its synthesis result is: only long filament temperature is 120~160 ℃, 140~160 ℃ scope more preferably.Temperature during joint uses the film that is made of modified poly ethylene with fusing point different with the fusing point of the elastic resin that constitutes elastic filament or modified polypropene etc. as the laminated substrate that engages with elastic filament 13, and observes its engagement state and measure.At this moment, melt bonded if elastic filament and laminated substrate take place, then junction temperature is more than the fusing point of laminated substrate.
When elastic filament 13 engaged with nonwoven 11,12, elastic filament 13 was essentially not elongation state (non-shrinking state when removing external force).Under both engagement states, at least a portion of fiber that constitutes nonwoven 11,12 is preferably melt bonded with elastic filament, perhaps more preferably with elastic filament 13 and constitute nonwoven 11,12 fiber at least a portion these two all take place melt bonded.Because can obtain sufficient joint strength like this.The expansion performance of the flexible sheet material 10 of gained can be subjected to the influence of elastic filament 13 and the density at the abutment of nonwoven 11,12.In addition, expansion performance can be handled adjusting staggering of abutment of bringing by the elasticity performance of junction temperature, activating pressure, nonwoven described later 11,12.Melt bonded by the formation fiber and the elastic filament 13 that make nonwoven 11,12, the bond strength at abutment improves one by one.If reduce the density at abutment, then the flexible obstruction brought of nonwoven 11,12 reduces, and can obtain to have the flexible sheet material 10 of abundant bond strength, is preferred therefore.
When making elastic filament 13 and the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 interflow, each elastic filament 13 is not arranged along a direction mutually across.Then, make elastic filament 13 and the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 interflow and under the state of 11,12 these elastic filaments 13 of clamping of two nonwoven, this three is being carried out cramping with a pair of niproll 18,18.The condition of cramping can exert an influence to the feel of the flexible sheet material 10 of gained.If clamping force is excessive, then elastic filament 13 is absorbed in two nonwoven 11,12 easily, and the feel of the flexible sheet material 10 of gained is reduced.From this viewpoint, the clamping force that niproll 18,18 produces there is no need to apply too high clamping force so long as make elastic filament 13 just enough with the degree that two nonwoven 11,12 contact.
Make above-mentioned elastic filament 13 and the 1st and the 2nd nonwoven 11,12 interflow and under the state of 11,12 these elastic filaments 13 of clamping of two nonwoven, other the method for optimizing that this three carries out cramping is being had: elastic filament 13 and nonwoven 11,12 interflow, the method (with reference to Fig. 6) of interval W is being set between above-mentioned a pair of niproll 18a, 18b with a pair of nip roll 18,18.With above-mentioned same, from elastic filament not being brought damage and obtain the viewpoint of sufficient joint strength, the interval W that is provided with between 18a, 18b is preferably 0.05~1mm, is preferably 0.05~0.5mm especially.
With separately thickness of the nonwoven 11,12 before engaging, and elastic filament 13 aggregate value that is about to engage (clamping) preceding thickness (along the thickness of the thickness direction of nonwoven) when being made as T0, interval W between above-mentioned a pair of niproll 18a, 18b and the ratio W/T0 of T0 are preferably 0.05~0.8, are preferably 0.1~0.4 especially.The thickness of nonwoven can be tried to achieve by aforesaid method.The thickness of elastic filament (mm) with
Figure A20078004587200341
Try to achieve.Wherein, G is that extrusion capacity (g/min), the n of the time per unit on the whole mechanical width are that long filament radical, v on the whole mechanical width is that niproll speed (m/min), ρ are the density (g/cm of long filament resin 3).By making W/T0 in above-mentioned scope, elastic filament and nonwoven constitute the abutment density of fiber and nonwoven and constitute between fiber being absorbed in elastic filament and obtain balance, can take into account thus the flexible sheet material of above-mentioned elastic filament and the bond strength between the nonwoven and unit formation resin weight per unit area 25% reply intensity.
As other condition of the cramping that utilizes niproll 18 to carry out, can list the temperature of niproll 18.The inventor's etc. result of study is: carry out cramping with it under the state of heating niproll 18, not as good as not heating (promptly letting matters aside) or carrying out cramping while cooling off, can obtain the good flexible sheet material 10 of feel.During niproll 18, preferably use cooling mediums such as cooling water in cooling, the surperficial design temperature of niproll 18 is adjusted to 10~50 ℃.
So obtain complex 19 at 11,12 flexible long filaments 13 of clamping of 2 nonwoven.Using the nonwoven that has extensibility originally as nonwoven 11,12 o'clock, this complex 19 is flexible sheet material 10 itself.On the other hand, using the nonwoven that do not have extensibility originally as nonwoven 11,12 o'clock, the complex 19 that will comprise this nonwoven 11,12 carries out the elasticity performance along the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13 to be handled, thus the operation that makes this complex 19 have retractility.In this manufacture method, this operation is following to be carried out: use the elasticity performance treating apparatus 22 possess a pair of tooth space roller 20,21 that alternately is formed with tooth and roller seating space respectively in a circumferential direction, with complex 19 along its conveyance direction, promptly carry out the elasticity performance and handle along the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.
Elasticity performance treating apparatus 22 has the pivot branch known elevating mechanism (not shown) of displacement up and down that makes one or two tooth space roller 20,21, so the interval of 20,21 of tooth space rollers can be regulated.In this manufacture method, the compound mode of each tooth space roller 20,21 is between cog that the tooth of a tooth space roller 20 is inserted in another tooth space roller 21, and the tooth of another tooth space roller 21 is inserted in the between cog of a tooth space roller 20, complex 19 is inserted into 20,21 of two tooth space rollers of this state, then it is carried out the elasticity performance and handle.
In elasticity performance treating apparatus 22, the two can drive (corotation roller) by drive source a pair of tooth space roller 20,21, also only a side tooth space roller 20 or 21 drives (with transfer roller) by drive source, in this manufacture method, only the tooth space roller 21 of downside drives by drive source, the tooth space roller 20 of upside is not connected with drive source, but along with the rotation servo-actuated of tooth space roller 21 (with changeing).Make the striped style that clearly occurs high weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15 on the flexible sheet material 10 after the elasticity performance processing easily with the use of transfer roller, from the design that improves flexible sheet material 10 and viewpoints that weight per unit area is hanged down with the raising gas permeability than low weight per unit area portion 15, be preferred with the use of transfer roller.As the profile of tooth of tooth space roller 20,21, preferably use general gradually tooth punching shape, cycloidal tooth profile, the preferred especially profile of tooth of using the narrowed width of these teeth.
Schematically show the state that the performance of complex 19 elasticity is handled among Fig. 7.During by 20,21 of tooth space rollers, complex 19 is not stretched substantially in the zone (between P3-P2, between P1-P4) that contacts with the tooth 23,24 of tooth space roller 20,21 at complex 19.Relative therewith, by the flank of tooth as the tooth 24 of the tooth space roller 21 of driven roller, the zone (between P2-P1) being extruded towards the flank of tooth as the tooth 23 of the tooth space roller 20 of loose roll is stretched widely by two teeth 20,21.In addition, the top ends of the tooth 24 by tooth space roller 21, the zone (between P4-P3) in that the tooth 23 from tooth space roller 20 is pulled away from though do not reach the degree of above-mentioned zone (between P2-P1), is also stretched widely.
In addition, complex 19 is in the zone (between P3-P2, between P1-P4) that contacts with the top ends of the tooth 23,24 of tooth space roller 20,21, as mentioned above, substantially be not stretched, but top ends by tooth 23,24, on its diametric(al), promptly on the thickness direction of complex 19, pushed partly, therefore attenuation on thickness direction.But because the direction of being pushed partly between zone (between P3-P2) and zone (between P1-P4) in the opposite direction, so the direction of attenuation is also towards rightabout.
By above-mentioned drawing process, can prevent peeling off between elastic filament 13 and two nonwoven 11,12, and two nonwoven 11,12 in the complex 19 that can stretch effectively, thereby can make complex 19 have retractility.In addition, the zone that is stretched greatly (between P2-P1 and between P4-P3) becomes low weight per unit area part 15, and the zone that is not stretched substantially (between P3-P2, between P1-P4) becomes high weight per unit area part 14.
Particularly, when containing the fiber of low stretching in nonwoven 11,12, between above-mentioned (P2-P1) and (P4-P3), this fiber is stretched and attenuates, thereby forms the not sizing fiber of fiber thickness degree generating period variation.
The tensile force that tooth space roller 20,21 produces mainly acts on the stretching of low drawing of fiber, can not apply excessive power to the junction between nonwoven 11,12 and the elastic filament 13.Its result can prevent from the destruction of this junction to prevent nonwoven 11,12 and elastic filament 13 and peeling off, and the complex 19 that can stretch effectively.In addition, by this stretching, as shown in Figure 8, under the situation of not destroying interfibrous joint, nonwoven 11,12 extends fully, and thus, the degree that nonwoven 11,12 obstruction elastic filaments 13 freely stretch reduces greatly.Its result according to this manufacture method, can make high strength, high scalability and damaged and the good flexible sheet material 10 of few outward appearance of fluffing effectively.In addition, in Fig. 8, for convenience, the fineness degree of the non-elastic fiber that will produce by stretching is expressed as the same.
As mentioned above, when in nonwoven 11,12, containing the fiber of low stretching, because this fiber successfully can be carried out the elasticity performance handles, and these interfibrous joints can not be stretched destroy, so the elasticity performance intensity of handling the nonwoven 11,12 that brings reduce can be controlled as best one can.The ratio of the hot strength of the complex 19 before specifically, the performance of the hot strength of the flexible sheet material 10 that obtains after the stretching and elasticity is handled is 0.3~0.99, be 0.5~0.99 especially, further be 0.7~0.99 such near 1 value.Here said hot strength can be measured according to the assay method of following maximum intensity.
The mensuration of<maximum intensity 〉
With flexible sheet material 10 by on its flexible direction for cut out the test film of rectangle on 200mm, the direction vertical for the size of 50mm with the direction of should stretching.Distance between chuck is set at 150mm.Test film is extended with 300mm/ minute speed to the flexible direction of flexible sheet material 10, measure the load of this moment.With the load of maximum point of this moment as maximum intensity.By same method, the complex 19 before also performance is handled to elasticity is measured maximum intensity.Measuring environment temperature is that 22 ℃, humidity are under the condition of 65%RH, preferably use the distraction test machine AG-1kNIS of Shimadzu Seisakusho Ltd.'s system to measure above-mentioned maximum intensity.
Complex 19 carries out the elasticity performance by a pair of tooth space roller 20,21 to be handled, and obtains the flexible sheet material 10 of target thus.The flexible sheet material 10 of gained is after passing through tooth space roller 20,21, because the contraction restoring force of self, the extended state on the MD direction is released rapidly.Its result, the flexible length of sheet material 10 on the conveyance direction is roughly recovered.Thus, under the state that has extended, high weight per unit area part 14 and low weight per unit area part 15 are alternately arranged along the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13.In addition, when discharging extended state, can fully discharge extended state, also can in showing the limit of retractility, under the state of keeping extended state to a certain degree, discharge extended state.
By above-mentioned elasticity performance processing, the thickness of the complex 19 of the thickness of flexible sheet material 10 before with respect to elasticity performance processing preferably is increased to 1.1 times~4 times, especially preferably is increased to 1.3 times~3 times.Thus, by the formation fiber generation plastic degeneration and the elongation of two nonwoven 11,12, thereby fiber attenuates.Meanwhile, two nonwoven 11,12 become more bulk, and the skin sense of touch is good, and elasticity (resiliency) becomes good.
From showing the viewpoint of sufficient expansion performance, the load A of the flexible sheet material 10 that so obtains during (below be also referred to as 50% reply intensity), be preferably more than 50%, be preferably more than 65% especially with the ratio (A/B) that extends 50% o'clock load B (below be also referred to as 50% elongation strengths) along the bearing of trend of elastic filament 13 along the bearing of trend elongation 100% of elastic filament 13 and from this replying state to 50%.
In addition, though according to the difference of concrete purposes and difference, the weight per unit area of the integral body of flexible sheet material 10 is preferably 10~150g/m 2, be preferably 25~60g/m especially 2About the thickness of flexible sheet material 10, be preferably 0.05~5mm, be preferably 0.5~2mm especially.The thickness of flexible sheet material 10 can be by measuring with the same method of the Determination of thickness of aforesaid each nonwoven 11,12.
The flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment is preferably used as the housing material of Breeches type disposable diaper.At this moment, also can be with the flexible sheet material 10 of present embodiment as the sheet material that places the outside, use non-Stretchable sheet as placing inboard sheet material, the two sheet materials back of fitting is used as above-mentioned housing material.In addition, except this purposes, also can utilize advantages such as its good hand feeling, anti-fluffing property, retractility, gas permeability, be used as in the various purposes such as medical disposable garment, cleaning sheet material, eyeshade, facial mask, bandage.Be preferably used as the constituent material of absorbent commodities such as sanitary napkin or disposable diaper especially.As this constituent material, for example can list than absorber more by the sheet material (comprising face sheet, subgrade etc.) of the liquid permeability of skin side, constitute the outer surface of disposable diaper sheet material, be used to make waist portion or waist, leg perimembranous etc. to have the sheet material etc. of elastic extension.In addition, can be as the sheet material of the wing that forms sanitary napkin etc.In addition, though also can be used for be the position of wishing to have retractility, positions beyond these etc.The weight per unit area or the thickness of flexible sheet material 10 can suitably be adjusted according to its concrete purposes.For example when the constituent material as absorbent commodity used, weight per unit area was preferably 20~60g/m 2About, thickness is preferably about 0.5~1.5mm.
More than based on preferred embodiment describing the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to above-mentioned embodiment.In above-mentioned embodiment flexible, be the structure of a large amount of elastic filament 13 to be arranged for example, but also can replace, on 1 nonwoven surface, engage a large amount of elastic filaments and make flexible sheet material in 11,12 clampings of 2 nonwoven.At this moment, as the constituent material of elastic filament, can use the low resin of adhesiveness when solidifying, this is from preventing that the viewpoint that blocks from being preferred when the sheet material 10 that will stretch is preserved with the state that is rolled into the roller shape.
In addition, elastic filament 13 all is identical diameter in the above-mentioned embodiment, and with equidistant configuration, therefore concerning any part of flexible sheet material 10, elongation stress all is identical.But also can replace, according to constituting flexible sheet material by the mode that constitutes in the different zone more than 2 of elongation stress on the prolonging direction of elastic filament.Described zone more than 2 is roughly configuration side by side on described prolonging direction.At this moment, between each different zone of elongation stress, the spacing difference of adjacent elastic filament and/or the diameter difference of elastic filament.Thus, can make each interregional elongation stress difference.When sheet material is stretched in manufacturing, also resins different more than 2 kinds can be imported arbitrarily and carry out spinning in the spinning-nozzle, thereby make each interregional elongation stress difference.
Also can carry out embossing processing partly, perhaps elastic filament 13 partly be cut off or heat seal partly flexible sheet material 10.These operations are in order to form not flexible part or to improve intensity partly and carry out on flexible sheet material 10.Perhaps, in order to fit with other parts or to make it have design and carry out.
In addition, about elastic filament 13 is handled with the elasticity performance of carrying out after nonwoven 11,12 engages, draw direction not only can be the moving direction of nonwoven 11,12, can for example be oblique also.And, also can make up the elasticity performance processing method more than 2 kinds, improve stretching ratio perhaps interimly, perhaps partly carry out the elasticity performance and handle.It not only can be a direction that direction is handled in the elasticity performance, also can be vertical both direction.Also can will engage, thereby make flexible sheet material all have retractility on the directions along the flexible nonwoven of a direction with along the flexible nonwoven of perpendicular direction.
