Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a synthetic fibre for use in an artificial grass sports field according to claim 1.
  • the invention also relates to such a synthetic fibre and to an artificial lawn suitable for a sports field, consisting of a substrate to which synthetic fibres according to the invention are attached.
  • the layer of synthetic material may consist of a mixture of different synthetic materials, for example, with one synthetic material serving to give the fibre a certain strength (against breaking or splitting), whilst another synthetic material in the mixture provides the fibre with a certain elasticity or flexibility or better sliding properties.
  • a drawback of such existing synthetic fibres is the fact that, due to the homogeneous structure all (sub)properties of the fibre are homogeneously incorporated in the fibre. As a result, certain properties of the fibre may be less prominently present than is desirable, whilst other properties predominate more than is desirable. Therefore, the composition of the current fibres is usually standardized and often their production and material costs are unnecessarily high.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a more universal fibre, which on the one hand can be produced for a specific use and which on the other hand saves production and material costs.
  • the layer of synthetic material is composed of at least two layers of different synthetic materials, using a co-extrusion process.
  • the co-extrusion step accomplishes a separation of the various properties of the synthetic materials that are used.
  • the synthetic fibre With a layered structure, it becomes possible to provide each layer with a function-specific property, which property does not need to be present elsewhere in the fibre, or needs to be present only to a markedly reduced degree. This makes it possible to select the formulation for the fibre specifically for a certain use, which, in addition to a more efficient material consumption, also results in a synthetic fibre with markedly improved playing and fibre properties than in the homogeneously composed known fibres.
  • the playing properties of the synthetic fibre are significantly improved by stretching the fibre after the co-extrusion process.
  • it is precisely the selection of materials after the stretching process that provides a fibre with such strength properties in a transverse direction that it will split less easily, for example.
  • a fibre When used in an artificial grass sports field, such a fibre, and consequently the artificial lawn, will have a much longer life, and the artificial lawn will require much less maintenance, thus remaining playable longer. Furthermore, the risk of injury of the players is considerably reduced.
  • the fibre may consist of at least one or of several twined monofilaments.
  • the fibre may be formed as a band, and more in particular the band fibre may be formed as a fibrillated band fibre.
  • the layer of synthetic material is composed of a core layer of a first synthetic material, which core layer is surrounded on both sides by one or several outer layers, each consisting of a different synthetic material.
  • each layer of synthetic material has a function-specific property, which is not necessary or not functional elsewhere in the fibre.
  • the layers may have different thicknesses, depending on the desired function-specific properties of the synthetic fibre to be obtained.
  • the first synthetic material consists of a mixture of a polymer and a plastomer, in which in particular the ratio of the plastomer in the core layer is 30-80 wt.% and more in particular the ratio of the plastomer in the core layer is 30-50 wt.%.
  • At least one of the other synthetic materials may comprise a hydrophilic additive.
  • the artificial grass fibre thus obtained has this function-specific characteristic that it can absorb moisture (water). This will keep the artificial grass sports field moist longer, which has a positive effect on playing behaviour (slides etc.). When the field is played on, the absorbed moisture is released, the same as with natural grass.
  • hydrophilic additive that can be used as the top layer or outer layer of the co-extrusion fibre is ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer. Depending on the quantity of vinyl alcohol in the copolymer, this polymer is capable of absorbing much water.
  • hydrophilic additive is the use of polyhydroxyethyl methylacrylate.
  • At least one of the other synthetic materials may comprise an antistatic additive.
  • any static electricity generated when the field is played on can discharge.
  • the strewing material between the fibres which is used in many artificial grass sports fields, is statically charged during play and as a result migrates upwards in the field.
  • the granular strewing material can be spread through the air, which is less pleasant during play.
  • the antistatic additive furthermore ensures that no static discharges will take place via the players.
  • the antistatic additive may be a polymer, especially a permanent antistatic, such as a polyamide or a polyether block amide.
  • the additive is a polyester block copolymer.
  • the fibres (10, 20, 30, 40) have been obtained from a foil of a synthetic material, which foil, obtained by co-extrusion, is composed of at least two layers of different synthetic materials (11, 12) as shown in Fig. 1A .
  • the layered structure of the synthetic fibre (10, 20, 30, 40) according to the invention makes it possible to provide each layer (sub-layers 11 and 12 in this embodiment) with a function-specific property.
  • the use of a synthetic material having a specific property in a particular part of the synthetic fibre obviates or strongly reduces the need for the presence of this synthetic material and the related function-specific property elsewhere in the fibre.
  • the sub-layer 11 which in principle provides the synthetic fibre with the required mechanical strength (and rigidity) and which in particular non-splitting properties such that the synthetic fibre used for the artificial grass sports field will not split as a result of being played on.
  • the synthetic fibre 20 is built up of three layers of three different synthetic materials indicated by reference numerals 21, 22, 23.
  • the middle layer 21 is made of an inexpensive synthetic material that is to give the fibre 20 its mechanical strength, whilst the outer layers 22 and 23 may be made of different synthetic materials, each of which may exhibit a different function-specific property, which property comes out best on the outer side of the synthetic fibre rather than in the centre.
  • the outer layers 21 and 22 may have an elastic property, for example, contrary to the inner layer 21, which provides the fibre with a certain rigidity (against breaking or splitting), which elastic property of the outer layer 21 or 22 has a positive effect on the playing properties of the artificial grass sports field.
  • FIG. 1C shows an embodiment in which the outer layers 32A and 32B are made of the same synthetic material.
  • Fig. 1D shows a further, more complex layered structure of a synthetic fibre according to the invention.
  • a layered synthetic fibre made up of a central core 41 and surrounded by different types of outer layers 42A-42B or 43A-43B, respectively, is obtained.
  • the synthetic fibre contrary to the known synthetic fibres, does not have a homogeneous structure in which all different synthetic materials and the related properties are homogeneously incorporated in the fibre.
  • certain properties of the fibre may be present less prominently than is desirable, whereas other properties are now predominantly present than desired.
  • the inner layers 11, 21, 31 and 41 may be made of a more inexpensive synthetic material that in principle provides the fibre with a certain strength against breaking or splitting.
  • the outer layers 12, 22, 32, 32A-32B, 42A-42B and 43A-43B may be made of a synthetic material that does not necessarily need to be present in the fibre core.
  • a specific embodiment may be made up of an outer layer built up of an antistatic additive.
  • the antistatic additive prevents the fibre from being charged by means of static electricity generated as a result of the artificial grass sports field being played on. Contrarily, the antistatic additive precisely ensures that the generated static electricity can discharge from the artificial grass sports field and, for example, will not discharge via the players, which can lead to unpleasant experiences.
  • a granular strewing material (usually made of a rubber-like material) is used, which, due to the static electricity that is generated, migrates upward in the artificial grass sports field and which is spread through the air as a result of the field being played on.
  • the airborne granular strewing material has a disturbing effect on the players.
  • the antistatic additive in particular is a permanent antistatic, possibly a polymer, such as a polyamide or polyether block amide.
  • the additive is a polyester block copolymer.
  • one of the outer layers (or both outer layers) (12, 22-23, 32a-32b, 43a-43b) may comprise a hydrophilic additive.
  • the artificial grass fibre thus obtained has the function-specific characteristic that it can absorb moisture (water) from the atmosphere, such as rain. This makes the artificial grass sports field remain moist longer, just like a natural-lawn sports field, which has a positive effect on the playing behaviour in particular when sliding etc. While the field is being played on, the absorbed moisture is released, the same as with natural grass.
  • hydrophilic additive that can be used as the top layer or outer layer (12, 22-23, 32a-32b, 43a-43b) of the co-extrusion fibre is ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer. Depending on the quantity of vinyl alcohol in the copolymer, this copolymer can absorb much water.
  • This water can be absorbed from the air (in the form of rain, fog, etc.) or can be supplied by an active sprinkler installation. (Often, artificial grass sports fields are sprinkled just before they are played on.)
  • the absorbed water is released again, which reduces the risk of injury, for example when sliding. Furthermore, the absorbed water keeps the temperature of the field lower, since an artificial grass sports field can be heated by the sun, under adverse conditions to temperatures as high as 70 °C.
  • a hydrophilic additive as the outer layer uses polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate.
  • a five-layer co-extrusion configuration is required, as shown in Fig. 1D .
  • the layers 32a-42b are bonding layers for the hydrophilic layer 43a-43b to the central layer 41 in that case.
  • the various layers of the artificial grass fibre are shown to have different thicknesses.
  • the bonding layer 42a-42b is considerably thinner than shown, usually it is 1-5% of the total fibre thickness, whilst the other layers 41-43a-43b are considerably thicker. If polyethylene is used as the middle layer 11-21-31-41, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer functioning as the hydrophilic additive will bond to the middle layer without any filling bonding layers being used.
  • Figs. 2A and 2B show a few embodiments of an artificial grass sports field in which a synthetic fibre according to the invention can be applied.
  • the artificial grass sports field comprises a substrate 1, to which several synthetic fibres 2 as obtained by using the method according to the invention are attached at the locations indicated by reference numeral 3, for example by tufting.
  • the synthetic fibre 2 has been obtained from a layer of synthetic material, which material has been produced from at least two different synthetic materials by means of a co-extrusion process.
  • the synthetic fibre may be individually attached to the substrate or as a bundle of, for example intertwined fibres 2a-2c. More in particular, the fibre that is obtained by co-extrusion can be a fibrillated band fibre.
  • the synthetic fibre according to the invention may be a monofilament. Also in this case, several monofilaments may be twined to form a bundle, after which each bundle is attached to the substrate 1.
  • the substrate has an open structure and is composed of a grid of supporting yarns 1a-1b, to which the synthetic fibres 2 are attached.
