Definitions

  • This invention relates to mineral fibre batts of the type which are conventionally known as "dual density" batts. These are bonded mineral fibre products comprising an upper layer intermeshed with a lower layer having a lower density than the upper layer, each layer being a bonded non-woven mineral fibre network.
  • the usual way of making dual density products is by providing a continuous mineral fibre web which contains binder, separating this web depthwise into upper and lower sub-webs, subjecting the upper sub-web to thickness compression so as to increase density, rejoining the sub-webs to form an uncured batt and then curing the binder to form the cured batt.
  • the upper sub-web thus provides the higher density upper layer intermeshed with the lower density lower layer.
  • Typical disclosures of conventional dual density processes are given in, for instance, WO88/00265 and US-A-4,917,750 .
  • the web which is separated into sub-webs is a web as formed initially on a conveyor.
  • the web may be formed by cross lapping.
  • the web is passed under some rollers as it approaches a device for separating the web into upper and lower sub-webs.
  • the fibres in the web will be substantially oriented parallel to the conveyor, because this is the predominant orientation during normal fibre lay-down processes.
  • the web is subjected to longitudinal compression before it is separated with the result that the fibres no longer have an orientation substantially parallel to the conveyor but instead have an orientation which has either a macro vertical component (so as to give significant visible pleats as shown in Figure 2 of EP-A-1,111,113 ) or a micro configuration (in which the vertical reconfiguration of the fibres has occurred but is not so visible to the naked eye, for instance as described in EP-A-0,889,981 ).
  • This invention relies in part on the realisation that starting with sub-webs which have the same fibre orientation and then merely subjecting the upper web to simple thickness compression (optionally with minor compensatory subsequent length compression) may not optimise the fibre orientation within each layer, having regard to the different functions that each layer is to serve.
  • the difference in density will impose very different properties on the two layers but the present invention utilises the realisation that the benefits of the upper layer can be optimised if it is subjected to more than mere thickness compression in conventional manner (optionally with subsequent minor longitudinal compression). Since the upper and lower sub-webs have the same velocity when they are formed and when they are rejoined to form an uncured batt, it is necessary to compensate for the extra lengthwise compression in the upper sub-layer.
  • one method aspect of the present invention broadly provides a continuous method of forming a bonded mineral fibre batt comprising an upper layer intermeshed with a lower layer having a lower density than the upper layer in which each layer is a bonded non-woven fibre network, wherein the method comprises providing a continuous mineral fibre web which contains binder, separating the web depthwise into upper and lower sub-webs, subjecting the upper sub-web to thickness compression and greater lengthwise compression than is required to compensate for the thickness compression, and subjecting the upper sub-web to lengthwise stretching and/or the lower sub-web to lengthwise compression so that the upper and lower sub-webs are travelling at substantially the same speed and rejoining the sub-webs to form an uncured batt wherein the upper sub-web provides the upper layer of the batt, and curing the binder.
  • the two sub-webs have substantially the same speed of travel when they are separated and when they rejoin. It is also desirable that the path lengths of the two sub-webs are not significantly different. For instance it is convenient for apparatus and space reasons that both sub-webs should follow the same path length or that the longer path length should not be more than 1.3 or 1.5 times the shorter. Minor differences in speed just before rejoining can be tolerated provided that any resultant tension in either or both sub-webs when they are rejoined is so low that there is no distortion or delamination of the batt.
  • the upper sub-web is subjected to lengthwise compression before or during thickness compression, the lower sub-web is not subjected to significant lengthwise or thickness compression, and the upper sub-web is subjected to lengthwise stretching between the lengthwise compression and rejoining the lower sub-web.
  • Stretching may be applied by pulling the upper sub-web towards the position where it is to rejoin the lower sub-web by a roller nip pair which rotates faster than rollers or belts causing the longitudinal and/or thickness compression.
  • the stretching is preferably such as to relax the structure without making any change in fibre orientation visible to the eye.
  • the lengthwise compression is conducted in two or more stages, or may increase gradually, and often the lengthwise compression is applied during the thickness compression.
  • the lower sub-web may be subjected to lengthwise compression sufficient that it has substantially the same overall lengthwise compression as the upper sub-web.
  • the amount of lengthwise compression in the upper sub-web is generally in the range 5 to 35%, preferably around 10 to 20%.
  • the speed of the upper sub-web prior to any final lengthwise stretching is usually around 0.8 to 0.9 or 0.95 V, and if no lengthwise stretching of the sub-web is applied then a similar lengthwise compression of the lower sub-web is preferably applied.
  • the fibres of the initial web may have the fibres substantially oriented parallel to the surface of the web.
  • the fibres in the web have the traditional essentially horizontal configuration which is typical for mineral fibres collected by an air-laying process, without any deliberate longitudinal compression or other vertical rearrangement of the fibres.
  • the lay-down is not wholly horizontal, but the predominant orientation is clearly visible to the naked eye as being essentially parallel to the surface of the web.
  • the web at this stage may be a web formed by direct collection of mineral fibres by air-laying to the desired thickness or it may be a web formed by laying several such primary webs on one another or, more usually, by cross lapping a primary web to form a web of the desired thickness.
  • the fibres have an orientation with a significant vertical component at the time of separation of the web into the upper and lower sub-webs, as a result of longitudinal compression of the total web prior to separation.
  • This longitudinal compression may be such as to give either a macro structure or a micro structure, as described in EP-A-0,889,981 or in EP-A-1,111,113 .
  • the web is separated depthwise into upper and lower sub-webs in conventional manner by a knife or other splitting device which is usually arranged substantially horizontally at a desired spacing above a conveyor on which the web is carried continuously.
  • the positioning of the separating device is chosen to provide the appropriate relative thicknesses of the upper and lower webs.
  • the thickness of the upper sub-web, at the time of separation is usually from 5 to 60% of the thickness of the total web. Usually it is at least 20% and often at least 30% of the total thickness, because the upper web is usually subjected to very high thickness compression and requires adequate thickness after this.
  • the upper sub-web is not more than about 50% or, at the most, about 55% of the total web thickness because usually it is required that the lower layer has sufficient thickness and structural content to impart significant properties to the final product. However, if the upper layer is to be rather thick, and possibly even thicker than the lower layer, the upper sub-web may need to be thicker than 55% of the web.
  • the thickness compression of the upper sub-web is always large, in order that this sub-web provides the required high density upper layer.
  • the overall thickness compression of the upper sub-web when it rejoins the lower sub-web is above 50%, preferably above 70% and most preferably above 85% (so that the final thickness of the upper sub-web is less than 15% of its thickness when initially separated from the lower sub-web.
  • the overall thickness compression is less than 97%, and most preferably less than 95% of the initial thickness.
  • the upper and lower layers in the final product have a total thickness of 30 to 300mm.
  • the upper layer usually has a thickness of 8 to 30mm, but it can be more.
  • the upper layer is usually 3 to. 25% of the total thickness but it can be more, for instance up to 50% or even 75%'..
  • Each longitudinal compression can be achieved in conventional manner by passing the relevant sub-web from one set of conveying surfaces (which may be belts or rollers) to a second set which are travelling slower.
  • the upper sub-web may be passed from a series of rollers or belts travelling at one speed to the converging passage between two conveyors which are travelling at a slower speed (so as to cause lengthwise compression followed by thickness compression).
  • the lengthwise compression of the lower sub-web can be achieved by passage from rollers or converging belts that provide thickness compression to a set of rollers or belts which are moving slower and which are parallel to one another so that they do not provide thickness compression.
  • the batt is then passed through a curing oven in order to cure the total binder in conventional manner.
  • the mineral fibres may be any suitable mineral fibres such as glass, rock, stone or slag.
  • the invention is of particular value when applied to mineral fibres obtained by centrifugal fiberisation, and in particular by fiberisation of a rock, stone or slag melt by a cascade centrifugal spinner.
  • rollers 53 all operate at the same speed which is 90% of the speed of the rollers 50 and the conveyor 51, thereby producing 10% longitudinal compression. This may be followed by a stretching stage between rollers 55 and where the upper sub-web rejoins the lower web.
  • the rollers 54 may operate at the same speed as rollers 53. However in another embodiment they operate at a slower speed, thus providing another longitudinal compression between rollers 53 and 54. In another embodiment they operate at a speed midway between the speed of the rollers 53 and the speed of the upper sub-web and the lower sub-web. For instance if the rollers 53 cause travel at 90% of the speed of the web as it is separated, rollers 54 could travel at, for instance, 95% of that speed.
  • the conveyor 49 can be replaced by a conveyor along part of the length, to control the movement of the lower sub-web, followed by a conveyor or set of rollers moving slightly slower, so as to provide longitudinal compression.
  • novel fibre orientation obtainable by the methods of the invention is also obtainable by other methods, and thus is another aspect of the invention.
  • this product aspect of the invention we provide a dual density layer wherein the upper, higher density, layer is definable by its Kappa and Tau values in one or more cross,sections, wherein these values are obtained by scanning examination of parts of each respective cross section through the thickness of the layer and Fast Fourier Transformation of the data.
  • this product aspect of the invention we provide a dual density layer wherein the upper, higher density, layer is definable.by its Kappa and Tau values in one or more cross sections, wherein these values are obtained by measuring parts of each respective cross section through the thickness of the layer in a flatbed scanner like Hewlett Packard ScanJet 6100C.
  • the product to be examined is placed on the scanner so that it fits on top of the scanner with the shortest distance perpendicular to the scanning direction, see drawing.
  • a two-dimensional pattern for instance of parallel stripes
  • Fast Fourier Transformation as a small number of dots
  • a complex two-dimensional pattern such as a cross section of a mineral fibre network
  • Fast Fourier Transformation as a large number of dots.
  • These dots will be arranged in a pattern, which may be circular but more usually is elliptical.
  • the Tau value for the cross section is defined as the geometric mean of the ratio of the length of the ellipse to the width for each of the 33 local windows and thus a high value indicates a local well organised pattern (high consistency locally) and a lower value near 1 indicates that the pattern locally cannot be defined.
  • the Kappa value is an indication.of the statistical distribution of the different angles at which the ellipse is arranged locally for different parts of the overall structure, which is being examined. A high Kappa value indicates a narrow statistical distribution of angles whilst a low Kappa value indicates a broad distribution.
  • the upper layer has Tau, determined on a first thickness cross section X (T x ) of below 4.5.
  • the Tau value can be 1 or close to 1 but in practice the Tau value is often at least 1.5 and usually at least 2 and preferably it is below 4, most preferably below 3.5. These values are satisfactory when the upper layer has a conventional density typically of 100 to 200kg/m 3 . However good results are also obtained at slightly higher T x values when the density is high.
  • the upper layer has a density of above 200kg/m 3 up to 300kg/m 3 and has T x below 5.0.
  • T x even for these high density products, is below 4.5, most preferably below 4.
  • upper layers of a conventional type and which are less effective as the upper layer in the dual density product typically has a Tau value of 6 or 7, or around 5 when the density is only moderate, for instance not more than 200kg/m 3 .
  • T y is the Tau value (T y ) measured on a thickness cross section Y perpendicular the thickness cross section X.
  • the ratio T y :T x should be at least 1.8 and is preferably at least 2.0. Often it is in the range 2.3 to 3.5, but can be up to 4.0 or even higher.
  • conventional, less satisfactory, upper layers typically have a ratio T y :T x of not more than 1.7, often not more than around 1.5 or 1.6.
  • Preferred products have T x below 4.5, or possibly up to 5 when the density is 200 to 300kg/m 3 , and T y :T x at least 1.8, wherein preferred values for T x and the ratio are each as described above.
  • the direction X is preferably the lengthwise production direction of the batt.
  • the batt is obtained by collecting the fibres as a web travelling in direction X, wherein the web contains uncured bonding agent, splitting the web in the thickness direction into upper and lower layers, consolidating the upper layer depthwise to provide it with a higher density than the lower layer, rejoining the layers and then curing the binder.
  • the lengthwise production direction and thus the preferred orientation of direction X can be determined by observing the pattern impressed on the upper and lower surfaces of the batt by the curing oven, when cured in conventional manner.
  • the fibre orientation in the lower layer may be apparent to the naked eye to have been cross lapped, in which event the cross lapping will be substantially in the direction Y, transverse to the overall collection direction X.
  • the significance of the Tau values in the high density upper layer can be very different from the significance of numerically similar Tau values in the lower density lower layer and that the values quoted above are the values which indicate optimum properties in the high density upper layer.
  • the Kappa value in the high density upper layer is usually very high, above 10 or even 15, in one or both of the directions whereas in the lower, base layer, the Kappa value in both directions is usually relatively low, for instance below 8.
  • the upper layers of the invention have a Kappa value in at least one direction of above 10, and often at least 13 or even at least 15.
  • the direction of this high Kappa value is the Y direction, i.e., transverse to the production direction X.
  • the cross section is cut vertically (when the batt is on a horizontal surface) in the lengthwise direction and the cross section is then scanned transversely, i.e., looking in the transverse direction.
  • Tau in a thickness cross section in the transverse direction we mean the Tau value derived when conducting examination by looking in the lengthwise direction at the cross sections.
  • orientation should be of the type which is obtainable by the longitudinal compression described in EP-A-0,889,981 to give a structure which does not have any overall pleated configuration, and thus has a micro structure more like Figures 4, 5 and 12 in EP 1,111,113 than a macro structure as in Figure 2 of that specification.
  • the desired Tau and Tau ratio values are also promoted by subjecting the upper sub-web to significant depthwise compression but relatively small lengthwise compression, for instance as described in the process embodiments of the invention described above.
  • the desired Tau value and ratio of Tau values is also promoted by accompanying the lengthwise compression by lengthwise stretching, as in the process embodiment of the invention described above.
  • any particular product has a Tau value which is higher than desired or a Tau ratio which is lower than desired
  • values within the defined and desired ranges can be obtained by varying the conditions generally so as to promote the web before splitting to have a structure more like the shown front faces of Figures 4 and 5 of EP 1,111,113 than Figures 1 and 2 and/or by applying only low to moderate longitudinal compression of the upper sub-web, often after most or all of the thickness compression has been applied.
  • the Tau value can be minimised by arranging that the fibres have as disorganised a structure as possible, for instance as a result of tending to be arranged in tufts.
  • having low Tau value in both the X and Y directions is undesirable since it appears that, for optimising the properties of the upper layer, the Tau value in one direction should be considerably greater than the Tau value in the other.
  • T x In general if T x is too low the process should be adjusted by lowering the length compression of the upper layer. If the ratio T y :T x is too low, the process should be adjusted by increasing the length compression of the upper layer.
  • the adjustments may be made before or after splitting into sub-webs, but preferably is done after splitting.
  • the Kappa value in the upper layer of above 10, and preferably of at least 12 or 15 up to 30 or even 40, is preferably in the thickness cross section in the Y direction, i.e., extending transverse to the production direction and examined looking in the production direction. Achieving high values of this type tends to follow automatically from selecting the right Tau values in combination with thickness compression to impart to the upper layer the required high density.
  • the Kappa value determined on a thickness cross section X i.e., in the lengthwise production direction, is generally in the range from 1 to about 12 or 15, often around 2 to 6, and these values also tend to be achieved automatically by applying appropriate lengthwise compression to allow which, as a result of the overall treatment, has the required Tau values.
  • the lower layer usually has both K x and K y below 8.
  • K y is above 2, and often above 3.
  • K x is usually below 3 and preferably below 2.5.
  • the ratio K y :K x is at least 1.3:1 and often at least 2:1 or 3:1.
  • T x in the lower layer is usually below 3, and T y is usually above 2.5 and most usually above 3.
  • the ratio T y :T x is usually above 1, typically at least 1.2.
  • the X value is preferably the value determined on a cross section in the lengthwise production direction, i.e., the value looking transversely across the web.
  • a measure of the effectiveness of an upper layer in a dual density product is the point load resistance, especially when plotted against fibre weight per unit area at a certain thickness of product.
  • two products of thickness 130mm were made each having a density in the upper layer of around 150 to 160kg/m 3 and a density in the lower layer of around 110 to 115kg/m 3 and a fibre weight per unit area of about 15.0 to 15.5kg/m 3 .
  • One of them was made by a conventional process in which the web, before splitting, had been made by cross lapping with the fibres substantially parallel to the surfaces, followed by splitting into upper and lower sub-webs and mere thickness compression of the upper sub-web.
  • This product gave a value of T x of about 7 and a ratio T y :T x of 1.4. Its point load value was measured as 364N.
  • the other was made by the preferred process described above, with the initial web being subjected to longitudinal compression substantially without visible pleating, followed by splitting into upper and lower sub-webs with the upper sub-web being subjected to thickness compression and to low longitudinal compression followed by stretching before rejoining the lower web.
  • the upper layer had T x 3.9, T y :T x 2.1 and the product had point load resistance of 645N.
  • the difference in point load values can be attributed to the differences in Tau values for the upper layer.
  • the invention may be utilised for production of roof boards, facade boards or similar boards produced from bonded mineral fibres when a certain point load resistance is required. They may be used generally for thermal insulation, fire proofing, fire protection, sound proofing, sound protection, and as horticultural growth medium.
