Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a nonwoven whose curly or wavy structure gives it excellent absorption properties, making it particularly suitable for use as a medical or surgical compress.
  • non-woven compresses are appreciably superior to those produced in gauze, with regard in particular to non-adhesion to wounds, they nevertheless remain far below what is desired as regards the absorption capacity.
  • US Pat. No. 4,001,472 discloses a nonwoven comprising at least one veil of cellulosic fibers reinforced by a nonwoven grid to which it is fixed by means of an adhesive.
  • the veil has a network of compressed zones intended to form connection points with the wires of the grid. The bonded surface being reduced at these points, the blockage of capillary channels through which the liquids diffuse throughout the mass is avoided. This improves the absorption capacity of nonwovens of this type.
  • an adhesive like any chemical binder, in such a product makes it unsuitable for medical use because of the risks of dissolution by disinfectants.
  • this product remains very flat, the apparent thickness coinciding with that of the material.
  • the present invention relates to a nonwoven compatible with medical or surgical use overcoming the defects of traditional nonwovens and gauze. Its particular structure allows to combine properties such as high absorption capacity, non-adhesion to wounds, elasticity and resilience.
  • this nonwoven for medical or surgical compress has a succession of ripples uniformly distributed and whose adjacent bellies are alternately arranged above and below the median plane of the nonwoven and consists of a synthetic grid on one side of which is fixed by thermobonding a web of cellulosic fibers.
  • the contiguous bellies of two neighboring undulations, situated on the same side of the median plane of the nonwoven, are made up of small adjacent pads.
  • Patent FR-A-2 418 819 clearly shows a fibrous product having undulations, but on the one hand, it contains a significant amount of binder making it unsuitable for medical use, on the other hand, the undulations have only 'either a decorative or structural function to improve rigidity.
  • Figure 1 is a top view of a nonwoven (1) which has a machine direction (2), corresponding to the longitudinal direction of production of said nonwoven, and a cross direction (3) perpendicular to the machine direction (2 ).
  • This nonwoven (1) has corrugations or crimps regularly spaced and arranged along lines (5) parallel to the machine direction (2).
  • Figure 2 which is a section of your Figure 1 along AA, plane parallel to the machine direction (2), shows that the nonwoven has undulations (4) whose bellies (6, 7) are alternately above and below its median plane (8).
  • Figure 3 which is a sectional view of Figure 1 along BB, plane perpendicular to the machine direction (2), shows that the contiguous bellies (9, 10) of neighboring corrugations consist of small adjacent pads (11, 12) located on the same side of the median plane (8) of the nonwoven. Behind the cutting plane we see the profile of the pads located below the median plane (8). The height and width of these pads are between 0.1 and 3 mm.
  • FIG. 4 shows a preferred form of the invention: the nonwoven consists of a synthetic grid (13) formed of filaments (15) of a first polymer coated in a sheath of a second polymer and connected by thin strips (16) of the second polymer, grid on one side of which is deposited a web of cellulosic fibers (14).
  • the veil (14) is thermally bonded to the grid (13): thus the nonwoven does not contain any chemical binder and can therefore be used as a medical or surgical compress.
  • the synthetic grid (13) is a bi-stretched grid comprising in the machine direction (2) parallel polyamide filaments (15) regularly spaced by a distance of between 0.1 and 3 mm. and connected together by narrow polypropylene strips (16) regularly spaced by a distance between 0.1 and 3 mm and perpendicular to the filaments (15).
  • the veil (14) of cellulosic fibers consists of a carding veil of cotton fibers.
  • the grid (13) has a grammage between 5 and 15 g / m 2 preferably 7 g / m 2 and the web of cellulosic fibers (14) a grammage between 10 and 20 g / m 2 , preferably 16 g / m 2 .
  • Its apparent density is less than 0.15 - preferably 0.1 - and its absorption capacity is greater than 13 cm 3 / g - preferably 16 cm 3 / g.
