Behind the applying adhesive, and before the tape substrate drying or after tape substrate is dried, there is method of the present invention to apply water base release coating.Water base release coating comprises the combination of polyethylene, fluorine chemical, acrylate, polysiloxanes, ethylene copolymer and these polymer and other polymer.Release coating is preferably the bottom sizing of the low-adhesion that comprises poly-(dimethyl siloxane) and acrylate polymer.Admissible low-adhesion bottom sizing is disclosed in the United States Patent (USP) 4,728,571 of Clemens etc. for example.
Making the method for release coating foaming also is known in this area.In practice of the present invention, release coating should be mixed with anion or nonionic surfactant greater than about 0.5% (weight).Preferred surfactants is anionic surfactant such as TRITONGR-5M or nonionic surfactant such as TRITON X-100 (being Pennsylvania Rohm and Haas company product).The blowing ratio of foaming release coating generally is about 4-30.For making the release coating foaming, preferred blowing ratio is 20-30.For making the natural rubber latex foaming, preferred blowing ratio is 8-12.
Available customary way and device preparation are applicable to foam of the present invention.For example, the useful commercial change foaming agent such as LESS SUPERFOAMER foam device (Georgia State Latex Equipment Sales and Surface company) preparation foaming release coating or foaming natural rubber latex.The SUPERFOAMER device is especially convenient, depresses the equipment that expanded material is pumped directly to the foam die head because it has to add.The foam die head produces back-pressure and suitable foam transfer rate.
After making the foaming of release coating or rubber latex, expanded material is pumped to the foam die head, is applied on the tape substrate by die head then.The amount that is applied to the material on the tape substrate is by the pump rate controlled of material by die head.In the method, speed is decided to be with less than about 4.0 gram/rice 2The speed (recording) of dried release coating/tape substrate by the difference of the tape substrate of doing with the tape substrate of the coating of doing transmit thin coating.Preferred transfer rate is a 0.5-1.5 gram/rice 2With thin applying coating to the transfer rate on the tape substrate of anhydrous rubber latex is every approximately side 5-7 gram/rice 2
Except that foam is transferred to the tape substrate, the foam die head is also controlled the foamy uniformity across the coating of tape substrate width.Be particularly useful for adopting the foam drainage nozzle of describing in the U.S. Patent No. 4,655,056 of Zeiffer by the foam die head of die head coating uniform coating.The shape of this class die head is processed into exactly can transmit uniform foam stream at the width across tape substrate, and the weight percent distribution less than the edge-central authorities-edge of about ± 8% (weight) can be provided.Other type can the foam die head that foam transfers to tape substrate also be can be used for this method by this control mode.
Behind the coating release coating, with the tape substrate of any suitable drying coated mistake of drying mode.For example, habitual drying mode comprises contact drying method, circulating air oven process, flue oven process and ventilation oven process in the nonwoven webs field.Should be with tape substrate in about 145-155 ℃ cycling hot wind furnace dry about 1 minute.Thermal source should be placed in tape substrate and the same side release coating in the stove.Like this, the speed of the wicking of the release coating that is caused by fabric can not accelerated because of drying mark.When using production-scale equipment, behind the coating release coating, the tape substrate with release coating that wets should be sent into dry about 0.5-10 second in the drying oven.
At this moment, the tape substrate that was coated with can be removed adhesive coating for carrying thereafter on cylinder, or directly deliver to the adhesive coating machine, be cut into one tape roll then.Also but adhesive coating is as the commentaries on classics stick that is come by lining.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive that is applied on the on-woven tape substrate can be solvent based, water base or heat sealing adhesive.Suitable adhesive is as being that the adhesive of base is disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 2,708,192 of Joesting etc. with the solidified rubber of phenol.The United States Patent (USP) RE No.24 of Ulrich discloses water base and solvent based adhesive in 906.Heat sealing adhesive is disclosed in the U.S. Patent No. 4,833,179 of Young etc. for example.
Surprisingly, observed already, and except that the part adjacent, had only the release coating of minute quantity to move in the tape substrate with coating part.In other words, release coating can not spread by tape substrate as to being coated in quick disruptive foam on the porous material expects.
After measuring the coating adhesive tape, stay lip-deep adhesive residue, confirm to have only the release coating of minute quantity to move into tape substrate.The test of suitable residue is described in the U.S. Patent No. 4,693,776 of Krampe etc.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the natural rubber latex of foaming is applied on the elastic rubber belt substrate.The method for making of poroelasticity substrate is well known in the art.For example, elastic, half adhesiveness binder has description in the U.S. Patent No. 4,984,584 of the U.S. Patent No. 3,575,782 of Hansen and Hansen etc.In brief, elastomeric yarn is bonded between the two layers of nonwoven fabric, has the substrate of good compression characteristic and caking property or self-adhesion ability with generation with natural rubber latex.
Provide following embodiment to further describe enforcement of the present invention.But these embodiment should not be understood that the present invention who is defined by the accompanying Claim book is worked the effect of qualification.
