Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the production of plate-like form elements based on natural fibers, wherein natural fibers mixed with binders, the mixture is applied from a forming station, optionally formed and finally bound, the binder in the form of at least partially after activation binder-forming multi-component fibers from a Carrier material is mixed, wherein the multicomponent fibers are formed from a support member and a sheath of a crosslinked plastic.
  • Extensive processes for the production of corresponding plate-shaped mold elements are known in the prior art, for example chipboard production, fiber board production (hdf, mdf), cellulose plates or mat production and the like.
  • fibers, chips and the like are mixed with liquid binders by blowing. Binders are, for example, urea-formaldehyde glue, phenolic imine and the like. Applications in the liquid state are rather uncommon in the case of cellulose plates or their production processes.
  • the fibers are dried and discharged.
  • the fibers can also be mixed with binder in a mixer gluing, resulting in a semi-moist mixture.
  • the dried or semi-wet mixtures are placed on forming stations, usually endless molds formed by forming belts. Finally, a hot pressing takes place in order to bind the applied and possibly shaped plates. It is also known to pass hot steam to activate the glue.
  • a method of the generic type is for example from US 5,824,246 known. Described here is a method according to which a mixture of natural fibers and a thermally activated binder is placed in a hot air press.
  • the peculiarity of the hot air press is that it has two relatively movable to each other arranged compacts, each compact having discharge nozzles, via which the material to be pressed is applied during the pressing process with hot air.
  • a piping system is arranged within each compact, which distributes the hot air to be supplied to the compacts uniformly on the outlet nozzles.
  • the process step of hot air pressing can be followed by a pressing operation in a conventional press with the aim of obtaining mold elements which are compressed to an appropriate extent.
  • the present invention the object of developing a generic method to the effect that in a simple manner with little economic effort and compared to conventional manufacturing process flexible and accurate quality expectation plate-shaped elements can be produced.
  • mats or plates of the generic type should be easier and with lower bulk density, ie more flexible with simultaneous savings by reduced material requirements to produce.
  • the activation takes place by means of hot air.
  • the spread mixture can be damped before the hot air treatment, resulting in a higher strength of the mats or plates.
  • the mold element is cooled, in particular by applying cold air.
  • Natural fibers may be cellulose fibers, for example also produced from waste paper preparation, wood fibers or even wood chips, mineral wool or other vegetable fibers and the like. Almost any mix can be created.
  • the body elements are advantageously also fibrous, but also flakes and similar body shapes are conceivable.
  • "After activation form binder" within the meaning of the invention comprises the release of the in the form binders adhered to body members formed of multi-component fibers or also the formation of multi-component binders.
  • BiKo fibers are known, hot melt adhesive fibers and the like, which can be used.
  • crosslinking binders including copolymers or polyethylene may be used, which may be applied, for example, on polymeric carriers, fibrous, flake-like or the like.
  • the hot-air activation melts the copolymers or polyethylene sheaths and crosslinks both with the polymer carriers and with each other, whereby the good but flexible composite of mats or plates is achieved. Subsequent cooling completes the crosslinking process.
  • a particular advantage of the invention results from the fact that the natural fibers and the body elements can be mixed very easily in a simple manner, so that it can be assumed that the molding element has a very good bond over the total volume.
  • the molding mixtures can be generated dry, so that it is possible, for example, to store or transport mixtures.
  • the manufacturing process is much more flexible, because no longer necessarily at the place of mixing must be processed. The storage of the individual components and the mixture of components are simplified.
  • the mixture can be handled more easily overall, so that can be dispensed with expensive scattering devices and the like. It is sufficient simple known mechanical scattering heads and the like.
  • the shaping is also very simple and the activation, for example by blowing hot air through, is much more economical and easier than hot presses.
  • a novel, plate-shaped molded element based on natural fibers formed from a mixture of natural fibers with at least partially after activation binder forming multicomponent fibers, wherein the multicomponent fibers consist of a support member and a sheath of a crosslinking plastic.
  • Such plates have one defined quality status and can be produced in a simple and economical way very flexible.
  • the plates are flexible overall and have a low bulk density. This results in an economic manufacturability of the plates according to the invention, since less material is required for the same volume.
  • the handling of the mats or plates is considerably improved because they are no longer prone to breakage and have the flexibility required for handling. They can be pressed into intermediate spaces, are compressible and can even be thrown during transport and also do not tend to break off the edges with unilateral application of force. Corresponding higher strengths can be achieved by simply pre-steaming before the hot air activation.
  • short fibers 1 for example paper fibers, wood fibers, cellulose fibers or the like
  • long fibers 2 for example jute, sisal and the like
  • binder 3 are mixed together.
  • the binder body elements may be thread-like, flake-shaped or otherwise formed.
  • corresponding carrier elements have a coating of crosslinking plastics, for example polymer carriers with copolymer or polyethylene coating.
  • the base material consisting of natural fibers, which may be composed of short fibers 1 and 2 long fibers, optionally a fire retardant, eg. As borax, and a binder 3, z. B. Biko-Fasem, are mixed together in the station 4, and then mechanically applied at 5 and formed into a mat.
  • a fire retardant eg. As borax
  • a binder 3 z. B. Biko-Fasem
