Derartige Scheuerkörper sind aus der EP O 696 432 A1 bekannt. Der vorbekannte Scheuerkörper ist aus einem Textilmaterial auf der Basis natürlicher oder synthetischer Fasern gebildet. Eine Arbeitsfläche des Scheuerkörpers weist ein Reliefmuster auf, welches mittels einer Warmverformung des Textilmaterials erzeugt wurde. Die Arbeitsfläche weist weiterhin Zonen auf, die mit einer Scheuer-Zusammensetzung bedeckt sind. Bei dem vorbekannten Scheuerkörper ist nachteilig, dass die Herstellung eine Vielzahl von Verfahrensschritten aufweist.Such scrubbing bodies are known from EP 0 696 432 A1. The previously known scouring body is formed from a textile material based on natural or synthetic fibers. A working surface of the scrubbing body has a relief pattern which has been produced by means of a hot deformation of the textile material. The work surface also has zones that are covered with a scouring composition. In the previously known scouring body is disadvantageous that the production has a plurality of process steps.

Darstellung der ErfindungOften the scouring body as a carrier material on a plastic foam. It is disadvantageous that the cleaning of hard to reach places is difficult. Presentation of the invention
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Scheuerkörper zu entwickeln, der einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar ist und der eine verbesserteThe invention has for its object to develop a scrubbing body that is simple and inexpensive to produce and improved
Reinigungswirkung an schwer zugänglichen Stellen, wie beispielsweise Ecken und Kanten, aufweist.Cleaning effect in hard to reach places, such as corners and edges, has.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale von Anspruch 1 und 11 gelöst. Auf vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen nehmen die Unteransprüche Bezug.This object is solved by the features of claims 1 and 11. In advantageous embodiments, the dependent claims relate.
Zur Lösung der Aufgabe umfasst der Scheuerkörper ein Trägermaterial aus einem textilen Flächengebilde, welches durch einen wasserstrahlverfestigten Vliesstoff gebildet ist und zumindest eine Reinigungsfläche mit einem Reliefmuster aufweist, wobei die Reinigungsfläche mit einer Scheuermittel- Zusammensetzung bedeckt ist, die auf der Reinigungsfläche angeordnet ist.To achieve the object, the scrubbing body comprises a carrier material of a textile fabric, which is formed by a hydroentangled nonwoven fabric and has at least one cleaning surface with a relief pattern, wherein the cleaning surface is covered with a scouring agent composition which is arranged on the cleaning surface.
Durch die Wasserstrahlverfestigung kann ein Vliesstoff mit einem geringen Flächengewicht und einer geringen Dicke bereitgestellt werden. Ein wasserstrahlverfestigter Vliesstoff weist eine höhere Festigkeit auf, als beispielsweise ein mechanisch vernadeltes Vlies. Ein aus einem derartigen Vliesstoff hergestellter Scheuerkörper weist bei einer geringen Dicke eine hohe Festigkeit auf, wodurch der Scheuerkörper besonders gut zur Reinigung schwer zugänglicher Stellen geeignet ist. Das Reliefmuster verbessert die Reinigungswirkung des Scheuerkörpers bei fest anhaftenden Verschmutzungen. Die Reinigungswirkung wird durch die auf der Reinigungsoberfläche aufgebrachte Scheuermittel-Zusammensetzung weiter verbessert. Das Scheuertuch kann nur eine Reinigungsfläche und eine Grifffläche aufweisen, wobei die Grifffläche durch das textile Flächengebilde gebildet ist. Ein durch Wasserstrahlverfestigung verfestigter Vliesstoff weist einen angenehmen, textilen und weichen Griff auf. Dadurch kann der Vliesstoff direkt als Grifffläche verwendet werden. Der Scheuerkörper weist dann eine geringe Dicke auf und ist flexibel, wodurch die Reinigung schwer zugänglicher Stellen verbessert wird.By hydroentangling, a nonwoven fabric having a low basis weight and a small thickness can be provided. A hydroentangled nonwoven fabric has a higher strength than, for example, a mechanically needled nonwoven fabric. A scrubbing body made of such a nonwoven fabric has a high strength with a small thickness, whereby the scrubbing body is particularly well suited for cleaning hard to reach places. The relief pattern improves the cleaning effect of the scrubbing body with firmly adhering dirt. The cleaning effect is further improved by the scouring agent composition applied to the cleaning surface. The scrubbing cloth may only have a cleaning surface and a gripping surface, wherein the gripping surface is formed by the textile fabric. A bonded by hydroentanglement nonwoven fabric has a pleasant, textile and soft touch. As a result, the nonwoven fabric can be used directly as a grip surface. The abrasive body then has a small thickness and is flexible, whereby the cleaning of hard to reach places is improved.
Die Scheuermittel-Zusammensetzung kann aus einem Binder und aus Scheuerpartikeln bestehen. Durch den Binder werden die Scheuerpartikel fest gebunden. Eine Lösung bestehend aus Binder und Scheuerpartikeln kann einfach und kostengünstig auf das textile Flächengebilde aufgesprüht werden. Durch den Binder wird der Scheuerkörper zusätzlich verfestigt.The scouring composition may consist of a binder and scouring particles. The binder binds the scouring particles tightly. A solution consisting of binders and scouring particles can be sprayed onto the textile fabric in a simple and cost-effective manner. By the binder of the scouring body is additionally solidified.
In einer Ausgestaltung kann der Binder phenolharzbasiert sein. Ein phenolharzbasierter Binder weist eine hohe Härte eine hohe Abriebsfestigkeit auf. In einer anderen Ausgestaltung kann der Binder acrylatbasiert sein. Acrylatbasierte Binder weisen einen angenehmen Griff auf. In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung kann der Binder aus einer Mischung aus Acrylat und Phenolharz bestehen. Die Eigenschaften beider Binder-Stoffe beeinflussen dann den Griff und die Härte des Materials.In one embodiment, the binder may be phenolic resin based. A phenolic resin-based binder has high hardness, high abrasion resistance. In another embodiment, the binder may be acrylate-based. Acrylate-based binders have a pleasant feel. In a further embodiment, the binder may consist of a mixture of acrylate and phenolic resin. The properties of both binder materials then influence the feel and hardness of the material.
Die Scheuerpartikel können durch mineralische und/oder organische Scheuerpartikel gebildet sein. Als mineralische Schleifmittel kann beispielsweise Quarz, Aluminium-Oxid, Silizium-Carbid, Kreide oder Glasgranulat verwendet werden. Mineralische Schleifmittel sind sehr haltbar und kostengünstig. Mineralische Schleifmittel haben eine hohe Härte und weisen daher eine kratzende Scheuerwirkung auf. Mineralische Schleifmittel sind damit insbesondere zur Entfernung sehr fest anhaftender Verschmutzungen geeignet.The scouring particles can be formed by mineral and / or organic scouring particles. For example, quartz, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, chalk or glass granules can be used as mineral abrasives. Mineral abrasives are very durable and inexpensive. Mineral abrasives have a high hardness and therefore have a scratching scouring effect. Mineral abrasives are thus particularly suitable for the removal of very firmly adhering dirt.
Nicht mineralische bzw. organische Schleifmittel sind beispielsweise Polyurethan, PMMA oder Nussschalen. Nicht-mineralische bzw. organische Schleifmittel sind einfach zu verarbeiten und sind ebenfalls kostengünstig. Die nicht-mineralischen bzw. organischen Schleifmittel haben eine geringere Härte als die mineralischen Schleifmittel. Daher weisen diese Schleifmittel eine nicht- kratzende Scheuerwirkung auf und sind insbesondere zur Reinigung empfindlicher Oberflächen geeignet.Non-mineral or organic abrasives are for example polyurethane, PMMA or nutshells. Non-mineral or organic abrasives are easy to process and are also inexpensive. The non-mineral or organic abrasives have a lower hardness than the mineral abrasives. Therefore, these abrasives have a non-abrasive scouring action and are particularly suitable for cleaning sensitive surfaces.
Das Reliefmuster kann durch eine Noppenstruktur mit kreisförmigen Noppen gebildet sein. Kreisförmige Noppen sind einfache geometrische Formen, die einfach herstellbar sind. Es können eine Vielzahl von Erhebungen in Form der Noppen auf der Reinigungsoberfläche angeordnet werden. Durchgehende Vertiefungen, in denen sich Verschmutzungen sammeln können, werden bei kreisförmigen Noppen vermieden.The relief pattern can be formed by a nub structure with circular nubs. Circular knobs are simple geometric shapes that are easy to produce. It can be arranged a variety of surveys in the form of knobs on the cleaning surface. Continuous depressions, in which dirt can accumulate, are avoided with circular nubs.
Das Verhältnis aus der Dicke des Trägermaterials und der Dicke der Scheuermittel-Zusammensetzung kann zwischen 1 :2 und 1:10, vorzugsweise 1 :5 betragen. Dabei ergibt sich ein dünner Scheuerkörper mit einer hohen Scheuerwirkung. Die Wasseraufnahme des Scheuerkörpers ist dabei gering.The ratio of the thickness of the support material and the thickness of the abrasive composition may be between 1: 2 and 1:10, preferably 1: 5. This results in a thin scrubbing body with a high abrasive effect. The water absorption of the scrubbing body is low.
Der Scheuerkörper kann eine Dicke von maximal 3 mm, vorzugsweise von 1 mm aufweisen. Ein derartiger Scheuerkörper weist ein geringe Dicke bei einer ausreichenden Stabilität auf. Durch die geringe Dicke eignet sich derThe scrubbing body may have a maximum thickness of 3 mm, preferably 1 mm. Such a scrubbing body has a small thickness with sufficient stability. Due to the small thickness is suitable
Scheuerkörper insbesondere zur Reinigung schwer zugänglicher Stellen und kann platzsparend gelagert werden. Das Flächengewicht des textilen Flächengebildes kann zwischen 50 und 200 g/m2 vorzugsweise 150 g/m2 betragen. Ein Scheuerkörper aus einem derartigen textilen Flächengebilde ist leicht und aufgrund der Wasserstrahlverfestigung stabil.Scrubbing body especially for cleaning hard to reach places and can be stored to save space. The basis weight of the textile fabric may be between 50 and 200 g / m 2, preferably 150 g / m 2 . A scrubbing body of such a fabric is lightweight and stable due to hydroentanglement.
Die Aufgabe wird weiterhin durch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Scheuerkörpers gelöst, aufweisend folgende Schritte:The object is further achieved by a method for producing a scouring body, comprising the following steps:
• Herstellung eines textilen Flächengebildes (3) aus einem Fasermaterial (11 ); • Verfestigung des textilen Flächengebildes (3) und Formgebung der zumindest einen Reinigungsfläche (4) durch eine Wasserstrahlverfestigung;• Production of a textile fabric (3) from a fiber material (11); Solidification of the textile fabric (3) and shaping of the at least one cleaning surface (4) by hydroentanglement;

Die Formgebung des Reliefmusters, beispielsweise der kreisförmigen, erhabenen Noppen und die Verfestigung des aus dem Fasermaterial gebildeten Fasermaterials erfolgt in einem Arbeitsschritt. Dadurch entfällt ein zusätzlicher Verfahrensschritt wie er beispielsweise bei der Herstellung der Noppen durch Warmverformung erforderlich wäre. Das Mischen der Scheuermittel-Zusammensetzung mit einem Binder vor dem Auftragen ermöglicht das Wechseln oder auch das Weglassen der Scheuerpartikel. Die Auftragsmenge der Scheuermittel-Zusammensetzung (6) beträgt dabei zwischen 220 und 300 g/m2. Es können einfach und kostengünstig Scheuerkörper mit verschiedenen Zusammensetzungen von Binder und Scheuerpartikel hergestellt werden. Durch das Aufsprühen der Scheuermittel- Zusammensetzung nach Herstellung der Reliefstruktur werden die Noppen zusätzlich verfestigt und stabilisiert. Als eine weitere Lösung der Aufgabe wird der Scheuerkörpers als Einweg- Scheuertuch verwendet. Das Reinigungstuch ist einfach und kostengünstig herstellbar und weist durch die geringe Dicke einen geringen Platzbedarf auf. Dadurch ist es besonders vorteilhaft für einen Einsatz als Einweg- Reinigungstuch geeignet.The shaping of the relief pattern, for example the circular, raised knobs and the solidification of the fiber material formed from the fiber material takes place in one step. This eliminates an additional process step as it would be required for example in the production of the knobs by hot deformation. Mixing the abrasive composition with a binder prior to application allows for the replacement or removal of the scrubbing particles. The application rate of the abrasive composition (6) is between 220 and 300 g / m 2 . It can be easily and inexpensively scouring body made with different compositions of binder and scouring particles. By spraying the scouring composition after preparation of the relief structure, the knobs are additionally solidified and stabilized. As a further solution to the problem, the scrubbing body is used as a disposable scrubbing cloth. The cleaning cloth is easy and inexpensive to produce and has a small footprint due to the small thickness. This makes it particularly advantageous for use as a disposable cleaning cloth.
