Definitions
- the present invention relates to nonwovens and their manufacturing processes and machines. It relates more precisely to nonwovens of large width, greater than 5 m in width for productions of more than 200 kg per hour and per meter of machine.
- light nonwovens from 15 to 80 g / m 2 , called “dry” are formed by carding and / or aeraulic.
- carding is the only dry process technique used for high production. It has been known for a very long time to crosswise cover the card web (s) to form a heavy sheet of large width, then to mechanically stretch it lengthwise to reduce its mass to m 2 .
- This technique is very limited in speed and cannot produce both light nonwovens, whose mass per m 2 is less than 60 g / m 2 , in large width and at production levels of 200 kg / hour and per meter in width, and more.
- Modern techniques make it possible to build cards with a maximum width of 5 m and delivering fiber sails with a maximum width of 4.7 m. Beyond the great technical difficulties of building high-precision drums in lengths of 5 m and more, these cards do not make it possible to produce veils of fibers with a mass of low m 2 , with resistance ratios from the running direction to the direction through less than
- the invention relates to a new light nonwoven, of large width, produced by the technique known as "dry process” and whose resistance ratio from the long direction to the transverse direction is less than 3.5.
- dry process the technique known as "dry process”
- a light nonwoven and its manufacturing processes and machines which make it possible to produce nonwovens by "dry process” with high production, in large width and whose ratio of a mechanical property in the long direction, and in particular of tensile strength, to this same property in the transverse direction is less than 3.5 and, in general, between 1, 5 and 3.5 .
- the subject of the invention is therefore a nonwoven with a width at least equal to 5 m, of grammage between 15 and 80 g / m 2 and, preferably, between 30 and 60 g / m 2 and consisting of fibers of a length of at least 15 mm and preferably of a length between 20 and 60 mm, of filaments or of a mixture of such fibers and filaments, characterized in that the ratio of a mechanical property, in particular of the tensile strength, in the long direction to this same property in the cross direction is less than 3.5. Preferably, said ratio is less than 3 and, better still, 2.5.
- the fibers and / or filaments can be made of thermoplastic plastic, especially polyolefins such as polypropylene or polyethylene, or polyester or polylactic acid, polyvinyl alcohol, polyamide or an artificial textile material, such as viscose or in a natural textile material, such as cotton, linen, wool, wood.
- the veil may have different layers.
- the subject of the invention is also the process for manufacturing a nonwoven, in which a veil of fibers and / or filaments is consolidated for the first time by projecting jets of water under pressure by calendering or by needling to obtain a veil consolidated for the first time.
- the consolidated veil is stretched in the width direction a first time to obtain an enlarged veil, then a second veil is consolidated the enlarged veil, preferably by projecting jets of water under pressure therein.
- the enlarged web is then dried, preferably by a drying device of adjustable width downstream of the second consolidation.
- the pressure of the jets of the second consolidation is greater than the pressure of the jets of the first consolidation.
- the pressure of the jets of the first consolidation may be for example between 15 and 70 bar and the pressure of the jets of the second consolidation may be greater than 70 bar and for example between 75 to 100 bar.
- the projection orifices of the jets can have a diameter in particular between 100 and 200 microns.
- the nonwovens of grammage In order not to break the nonwovens, we stretch to an elongation of less than 30% of the nonwovens of grammage less than or equal to 40 g / m 2 , of less than 40% of the nonwovens of grammage greater than 40 g / m 2 and less or equal to 60 g / m 2 and less than 50% of nonwovens with a grammage greater than 60 g / m 2 and less than or equal to 80 g / m 2 .
- the percentage of elongation is the ratio of the difference between the dimension after elongation minus the dimension before elongation to the dimension before elongation.
- the temperature of the consolidated web is raised for the first time by at least 50 ° C and at most 300 ° C.
- the temperatures of the web before enlargement or during enlargement can be between 15 ° C and 300 ° C and preferably between 20 ° C and 250 ° C.
- the heating stage is particularly advantageous for a thermoplastic material which tends to crystallize, such as polyester, for which it is thus crystallized quickly so that the shrinkage is reduced.
- heating causes softening which facilitates enlargement and which refines the unit diameter of the constituent filaments or fibers.
- the invention also relates to a machine for producing a nonwoven, comprising a means of transporting a veil of fibers or filaments in a consolidation device by spraying water jets, by calendering or by needling, characterized in that it comprises, downstream of the first consolidation device, a device for widening the web, firstly consolidated.
- a second consolidation device is provided downstream of the widening device. Its effective consolidation width is greater than that of the first consolidation device.
- a nonwoven is obtained which meets the characteristics mentioned above and which in particular has a large width, which reduces falls when it is then cut into narrower strips for the manufacture of finished products.
- the widening device may comprise a widening roller and preferably a widening roller with spiral winding, or oars with pins or clamps, in particular in the event of heating. These are flexible rotating rollers whose radius of curvature is adjusted according to the desired enlargement.
- the widening of the wet nonwoven can also be obtained by two oars with pins and chains guided by guide systems laterally at the edges of the nonwoven and whose spacing increases as the nonwoven advances. Widening is facilitated if the means of transport includes means so that the speed of the web is greater at the outlet than at the inlet of the widening device.
- This second consolidation device comprises a projection of pressurized water jets
- the width of injection of the water jets of this second device is greater than that of the first device used for the first consolidation.
- the second consolidation can also be carried out by thermobonding, calendering, mechanical needling, chemical or other means.
- the effective consolidation width of the second consolidation device is greater than that of the first consolidation device.
- the second consolidation device can also give a pattern to the veil.
- the second consolidation device is followed by a drying device by air suction. Drying can be carried out in particular at a temperature between 110 and 160 ° C. and it is preferably carried out in a through air oven.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram of a machine for producing a nonwoven according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is an elevation view of a widening roller used in the machine according to the invention
- Figure 3 is a plan view of the assembly of a widening roller and the input and output rollers. The machine represented in FIG.
- the veil comprises a conveyor belt 1 of entry, circulating on rollers 2 and bringing on the upper strand a veil of fibers, shown diagrammatically by the arrow 3.
- the veil is compacted between a drum 4 and the strand upper of conveyor 1 with humidification by sending of water through the conveyor 1 by a humidifier H before being wound up on the right part of the drum where it receives, as a first consolidation, jets of water 5 under high pressure coming from injectors 6.
- the thus consolidated veil is wound on another drum 7 also provided with injectors 8 to complete what is called, within the meaning of the invention, the first consolidation.
- the veil consolidated for the first time arrives at an entry speed in two enlarging rollers 9 (separated by three return rollers), from which it emerges enlarged at an exit speed which is greater than the entry speed because the drum 7 rotates more slowly than rollers 10.
- the enlarged web is returned by the rollers 10 to a drum 11 provided with injectors 12 projecting jets 13 of water onto the enlarged web to achieve a second consolidation there.
- the roller 11 is provided with a sleeve making it possible to give a pattern to the consolidated veil a second time.
- the veil consolidated a second time passes over the upper strand of a conveyor 14 provided with a suction box 15 below the upper strand so as to constitute a device for dehumidifying the veil.
- the web enters a furnace 16 with circulation of hot air passing through a perforated surface 17 whose length perpendicular to the plane of the drawing can be adjusted so as to adapt to the width of the web.
- the nonwoven 18 is wound on a winder 19.
- the enlarging roller 21 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is tensioned by the bearings 2 which have an adjustable internal device making it possible to modify the angle of the axes of the roller by compared to the bearings and therefore the radius of curvature of the roller and also the percentage increase in the width of the nonwoven.
- the nonwoven 24 is first deflected by a roller 25 with a Me motor then is interwoven around the widening roller 6, then is again deflected by a roller 27 with a Ms. motor.
- the nonwoven follows a perpendicular direction 28 to the longitudinal axis of the roller 26.
- the surface of the roller 28 is preferably covered with a synthetic material avoiding the sliding of the nonwoven on the surface of the roller to obtain maximum widening.
- the laboratory tests of resistance measurement in the long direction and in the cross direction, and of mass per m 2 are conducted according to ERT standards of EDANA (European Disposables And Nonwovens Association) namely: a) Mass per square meter : A sample is conditioned for 24 hours and the test is carried out at 23 ° C and a relative humidity of 50%. At least 3 samples are cut with an area of at least 50,000 mm2 with a cutting device called a cutter. Each sample is weighed on a laboratory balance with an accuracy of 0.1% of the mass of the weighed samples. b) Strength and elongation in the long direction and in the cross direction: A sample is conditioned for 24 hours and the test is carried out at 23 ° C and at a relative humidity of 50%.
- a dynamometer is used for the test, comprising a set of fixed jaws and a set of movable jaws moving at a constant speed.
- the jaws of the dynamometer have a useful width of 50 mm.
- the dynamometer is equipped with a recorder which makes it possible to trace the curve of the tensile force as a function of the elongation. 5 samples are cut of 50 mm more or less 0.5 mm in width and 250 mm in length, this in the long direction and in the cross direction of the nonwoven. The samples are tested one by one, at a constant tensile speed of 100 mm per minute and with an initial distance between jaws of 200 mm.
- Example 1 (comparative) A veil of approximately 60 g / m 2 composed of 50% viscose fibers of 1.7 dtex and 40 mm in length and 50% of polyester fibers of 1.7 dtex and 38 mm in length is produced at a speed of 70 m / min by a card type of card for nonwovens. This veil is delivered continuously to a first set of consolidation by water jets followed by a second set of consolidation by water jets as described in Figure 1.
- the first consolidation station consists of a compacting and wetting conveyor veil followed by two rotary drums each equipped with two hydraulic injectors
- the second consolidation station consists of a rotary drum equipped with two hydraulic injectors.
- the fiber web is first compacted between the transport conveyor and the first drum.
- the veil is wet and slightly consolidated by a hydraulic injector projecting water jets of 140 ⁇ m in diameter at a pressure of 15 bar. The jets being spaced from each other by a distance of 0.8 mm in two rows.
- the veil thus compacted, wet and slightly consolidated is then subjected to the action of two successive hydraulic injectors projecting water jets of 120 ⁇ m in diameter and comprising 1,666 jets / m of width at increasing pressures of 50 bar and 70 bar.
- the nonwoven thus consolidated is transferred to a second drum of the same type as the first and also equipped with two hydraulic injectors and projecting water jets of 120 ⁇ m in diameter and comprising 1,666 jets / m in width at pressures of 70 bar each.
- the wet nonwoven is then transferred to a last drum fitted with two hydraulic injectors projecting water jets of 120 ⁇ m in diameter and comprising 1,666 jets / m in width at pressures of 80 bar each.
- Example 2 The conditions of Example 1 are repeated using the spreader roller device located between the second and the third drum. The width of the wet nonwoven is increased by 15% before being transferred to the third drum.
- the nonwoven is consolidated on the third drum under the same conditions as Example 1, that is to say by two hydraulic injectors at pressures of 80 bar each. Then the nonwoven is dried as in Example 1.
- Example 3 The conditions of Example 2 are repeated, this time applying a 30% enlargement percentage before transferring the wet nonwoven onto the third drum.
- the other conditions of the test are also identical to those of test 2.
- Example 4 (comparative) The conditions of Example 2 are repeated, this time applying a 50% enlargement percentage before transferring the wet nonwoven onto the third. drum. The nonwoven tears along longitudinal lines. It cannot be used. The test is stopped. 10
