[ method for producing spunbonded nonwoven Fabric ]
Preferred embodiments for producing the spunbonded nonwoven fabric of the present invention will be described in detail below.
The spunbond method for producing a spunbond nonwoven fabric is a method for producing a nonwoven fabric requiring the following steps: the resin is melted, spun through a spinneret, cooled and solidified, and the obtained yarn is drawn and stretched by a jet, collected on a moving web, formed into a nonwoven fiber web, and thermally bonded.
The spinneret and the ejector used may have various shapes such as a circle and a rectangle. Among these, the combination of the rectangular spinneret and the rectangular ejector is a preferred embodiment from the viewpoint that the amount of compressed air used is small and welding and friction between the yarns are not easily caused.
In the present invention, the raw material polymer is vacuum-dried as necessary, and then melt-spun. The spinning temperature is preferably 200 ℃ to 270 ℃ in the case of polyolefin, and preferably 240 ℃ to 320 ℃ in the case of polyester. When the spinning temperature is within the above range, a stable molten state can be formed, and excellent spinning stability can be obtained.
A thermoplastic resin as a raw material is melted and metered in an extruder, and is supplied to a spinneret to be spun as a long fiber. In this case, it is also a preferred embodiment to select a base polymer having 2 or more components, blend the polymer into chips (chip blend) or supply the polymer from a different extruder, and form a conjugate fiber during spinning.
The spun long fiber yarn is then cooled, and examples of a method for cooling the spun yarn include a method of forcibly blowing a cold air to the yarn, a method of natural cooling by the temperature of the atmosphere surrounding the yarn, and a method of adjusting the distance between the spinneret and the ejector, or a combination of these methods. The cooling conditions may be appropriately adjusted in consideration of the discharge amount per one hole of the spinneret, the spinning temperature, the atmospheric temperature, and the like.
Subsequently, the cooled and solidified sliver is drawn and stretched by the compressed air injected from the injector.
The spinning speed is preferably 2000 m/min or more, more preferably 3000 m/min or more, and further preferably 4000 m/min or more. By setting the spinning speed to 2000 m/min or more, high productivity is achieved, and the oriented crystallization of the fiber is promoted, whereby a long fiber having high strength can be obtained. The spinning speed in the present invention is a value calculated from a single fiber fineness obtained by calculating a mass per 10000m in length as the single fiber fineness from the single fiber diameter and the solid density of the base polymer and rounding off the second decimal place, and a discharge amount of the resin discharged from a spinneret set under each condition (hereinafter referred to as a discharge amount per one hole), and by using the following formula.
Spinning speed (10000 × single hole discharge)/single fiber fineness
Subsequently, the long fibers obtained were collected on a moving web to form a nonwoven web. In the present invention, since the drawing is performed at a high spinning speed, the fibers discharged from the ejector are collected on the web in a state of being controlled by a high-speed air flow, and a nonwoven fabric having high uniformity with less entanglement of the fibers can be obtained. Such a nonwoven fabric may be formed of only 1 web, but a web in which a plurality of spinning devices are arranged side by side in the process direction and a plurality of webs are stacked is also a preferred embodiment from the viewpoint of productivity improvement. In this case, the raw material and process conditions may be changed for each web. Further, it is also one of preferred embodiments to laminate meltblown nonwoven fabrics. In the present invention, these laminates are also collectively referred to as nonwoven fabric webs.
Next, the obtained nonwoven web is integrated by thermal bonding, whereby a desired spunbond nonwoven fabric can be obtained.
Examples of a method for integrating the nonwoven web by thermal bonding include a method of thermal bonding using the following various rollers: hot embossing rollers in which engraving (uneven portions) is performed on the surfaces of the upper and lower pairs of rollers; a hot embossing roll in which a roll having a flat (smooth) roll surface and a roll having an engraved (uneven) roll surface are combined; and a hot calendering roll composed of a pair of upper and lower flat (smooth) rolls; and the like.
The embossed bonding area ratio at the time of thermal bonding is preferably 5% or more and 30% or less. By setting the bonding area to 5% or more, more preferably 10% or more, it is possible to obtain strength that can be practically used as a spunbond nonwoven fabric. On the other hand, when the bonding area is preferably 30% or less, more preferably 20% or less, sufficient flexibility can be obtained particularly when the spunbonded nonwoven fabric is used as a sanitary material.
The bonding area here means a ratio of a portion of the nonwoven fabric in which the convex portion of the upper roll and the convex portion of the lower roll overlap each other and contact the nonwoven web, in the entire nonwoven fabric, when the nonwoven fabric is thermally bonded by a pair of rolls having concave and convex portions. In the case of thermal bonding between a roll having irregularities and a flat roll, the ratio of the portion of the irregularities of the roll in contact with the nonwoven web is the ratio of the entire nonwoven fabric.
As the shape of the engraving performed on the heat embossing roll, a circle, an ellipse, a square, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a rhombus, a regular hexagon, a regular octagon, or the like can be used.
The linear pressure of the heat-embossing roll at the time of thermal bonding is preferably 5N/cm or more and 70N/cm or less. By setting the linear pressure of the roll to 5N/cm or more, more preferably 10N/cm or more, and further preferably 20N/cm or more, it is possible to sufficiently thermally bond the rolls, and to obtain a strength which can be practically used as a nonwoven fabric. On the other hand, by setting the linear pressure of the roller to preferably 70N/cm or less, more preferably 60N/cm or less, and further preferably 50N/cm or less, sufficient flexibility can be obtained particularly when used as a nonwoven fabric for sanitary materials.
