  • Nonwoven B was produced analogously to nonwoven A The difference is the use of conventional PET / co-PET bicomponent fibers with a Mantelschmeizddling of about 200 ° C and the reduction of the oven temperature to 230 ° C. The resulting basis weight, thickness and air permeability are comparable.

  • the outstanding properties of these nonwovens lie in the very good mechanical test values, as well as their excellent shrinkage behavior (Table 2).

  • the nonwovens A, C, D according to the invention are particularly suitable for use as motor oil filter medium in motor vehicles.
  • calendered PET nonwoven fabrics are made of a mixture of stretched and unstretched monofilament PET fibers prior art. Due to the calendering process, there is a risk of surface sealing, especially for heavy nonwovens with basis weights> 150 g / m 2 , since high roll temperatures or slow production speeds are necessary for good penetration of the nonwoven fabric in order to bring the necessary heat into the interior of the nonwoven fabric. Sealed surfaces harbor the risk of film formation, which in turn leads to poor membrane adhesion and lower flow rates (comparative nonwoven fabric E).
  • the FIGS. 4 and 5 demonstrate the different surfaces of a conventional nonwoven fabric (comparative example, nonwoven fabric E; FIG. 4 ) and the surface of a nonwoven fabric according to the invention (nonwoven fabric F; FIG. 5 ).
  • the nonwovens according to the invention of the corresponding bicomponent fibers overcome both obstacles, since they are low in shrinkage and easily allow food approvals by the construction of homopolymers.
  • the enthalpy of fusion is a direct measure of the crystalline proportions in the polymer.
  • the core-sheath ratios of the two fibers are 1: 1, resulting in the following melt enthalples of the fiber sheaths: Fiber A 63 y / g Fiber B 29 y / g
  • the core of both fibers can serve here, which consists of PET in both.
  • the melting enthalpy values obtained are comparable (59 J / g vs. 54 J / g).
  • the low peak height and the broader peak base are characteristic of fiber cladding based on copolymers (here CoPET).
  • comonomers such as e.g. Isophthalic acid in polyethylene terephthalate, both the melting point and the crystallinity or willingness to crystallize the polymer is reduced.
  • the nonwoven fabrics according to the invention are thus based on fibers of the fiber A type.
