  • An object of the present invention which was made under the circumstances above to solve the problems above in traditional technology, is to prove a skin care goods that is low irritant to the skin and superior in wiping efficiency of the dirt in the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin.
  • the present invention which solved the problems above, has the following aspects:
  • the present invention it is possible according to the present invention to provide a skin care goods that is superior in the wiping efficiency of removing dirt on the skin surface and also in the depth of the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin and yet low irritant to the skin.
  • the skin care goods utilizing nanofiber according to the present invention also provides the user with comfortableness.
  • the skin care goods according to the present invention is also superior in dimensional stability and texture and favorable in hand, compared to the fabrics only of nanofiber.
  • thermoplastic polymer for the nanofibers constituting the pile yarn for the skin care goods according to the present invention may be, for example, polyester, polyamide, polyolefin, polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) or the like.
  • polyamides such as nylon 6, which have strong hydrogen bonds, are preferable for preservation of the nanofiber bundle shape, as will be described below.
  • the pile yarn is made of nanofibers in the skin care goods according to the present invention.
  • the nanofiber when used, reaches into the depth of the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin and allows removal of the dirt therein, differently from skin care goods made of conventional ultrafine fibers (microfibers). It is probably because the nanofiber has a smaller fiber diameter, and also a small geometrical moment of inertia, an indicator of the deformability of nanofiber, of 1.0 ⁇ 10 -32 to 2.5 ⁇ 10 -3 , which is smaller than that of conventional ultrafine fibers, and thus, higher fiber flexibility.
  • the pile yarn which contains nanofiber filaments that are more deformable and dispersible when in contact with the skin, reaches together densely into the depth of sulcus cutis and pores of the skin, removing fine dirt therein (see Figure 5 ).
  • the nanofiber prohibits localized concentration of stress and also of friction on the skin significantly and enlargement of the pores.
  • the nanofiber also allows preparation of fine foams having a diameter of 1 ⁇ 10 1 ⁇ m or less and adsorption of the dirt in the depth of the pores on the fine foams.
  • the foam is smaller and more fine than that made with conventional ultrafine fibers reported for example in Patent Document 3 described above.
  • the fineness of the nanofiber is 1 ⁇ 10 -8 to 2.2 ⁇ 10 -3 dtex, as number-average monofilament fineness (corresponding to a monofilament diameter of 1 to 500 nm in the case of nylon 6), and preferably 4 ⁇ 10 -4 dtex or less (corresponding to a monofilament diameter of 211 nm, in the case of nylon 6 having a density of 1.14 g/cm 3 ), more preferably 2 ⁇ 10 -4 dtex or less (monofilament diameter of 149 nm or less in the case of nylon 6), still more preferably 1 ⁇ 10 -4 dtex or less (monofilament diameter of 106 nm or less in the case of nylon 6), and still more preferably, 8 ⁇ 10 -6 to 6 ⁇ 10 -5 dtex (monofilament diameter of 30 to 82 nm in the case of nylon 6).
  • the nanofiber fit into the depth of the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin easily and remove the dirt therein, by reducing the number-average monofilament fineness of the nanofiber to 2.2 ⁇ 10 -3 dtex or less.
  • the fineness is smaller than 1 ⁇ 10 -8 dtex, the nanofiber and also its pile yarn become unsatisfactory in strength.
  • the nanofiber preferably forms a bundle of filaments by aggregation under standard condition.
  • the nanofiber bundle swells by absorption of liquid (see Figure 4 ) and is flattened when in contact with the skin, with the surface nanofiber filaments deforming or dispersing themselves along the wrinklessulcus cutis and pores of the skin.
  • the deformation and dispersion of the nanofiber filaments leads to breakdown of larger dirt and takes the dirt deep into the nanofiber bundle.
  • Fine dirt present in the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin are collected deep into the bundle during high contact of the dispersed nanofiber filaments with the depth the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin (see Figures 6 and 7 ). The removed dirt is protected from re-deposition on the skin, as it is taken deep into the nanofiber bundle.
  • Such a nanofiber is obtained, for example, by the following method:
  • the polymer alloy fiber obtained is treated with a solvent for removal of the easily soluble polymer preferably to an extent of 99.9% or more, to give nanofiber.
  • the diameter of the nanofiber is determined mostly by the size of the islands (domains) in the nanofiber precursor polymer alloy fiber.
  • the size of the island (domain) may be controlled by adjustment of polymer blending, and intense blending in a kneading extruder, static mixer or the like is desirable.
  • the combination of polymers also exerts significant influence on the size of the island (domain).
  • the island (domain) polymer and the sea (matrix) polymer are preferably incompatible to each other, to make the island (domain) more circular in shape.
  • the polymer combination is preferably selected by using solubility parameter (SP value) as an indicator.
  • SP value is a parameter reflecting the cohesive force of substance, which is defined by (energy of vaporization/molar volume) 1/2 .
  • a difference of two polymer SP values of 1 to 9 (MJ/m 3 ) 1/2 is favorable both for the circularity of the island (domain) and ultrafine dispersion of the islands by incompatibilization.

  • PET polyethylene terephthalate
  • N6 and PE which have a SP value difference of about 11 (MJ/m 3 ) 1/2
  • unfavorable combination is an example of unfavorable combination.
  • the melt viscosity also influenced on the size of the island (domain). It is favorable to make the melt viscosity of the island-component polymer smaller than that of the sea-component polymer for production of nanofiber, because it facilitates deformation of the island-component polymer by shearing force and thus fine dispersion of the island-component polymer.
  • excessive reduction of the viscosity of the island-component polymer makes the polymer more like the sea-component polymer, prohibiting increase in the blend rate in the entire fiber, and thus, the viscosity of the island-component polymer is preferably 1/10 or more of the viscosity of the sea-component polymer.
  • the solvent dissolving the sea (matrix) polymer but hardly dissolving the island (domain) polymer is, for example, an alkaline solution, an acidic solution, an organic solvent, a supercritical fluid, or the like.

  • the water- or oil-absorbing property thereof is preferably is not larger than that of the nanofiber for the pile yarn. It is thus possible to make the nanofiber pile filaments used as the skin-wiping layer hold aqueous or oil cleansing lotion or facial wash more efficiently.
  • the monofilament fineness of the ground yarn is preferably more than 8 ⁇ 10 -4 dtex, more preferably 1 ⁇ 10 -1 dtex or more. It is possible to improve the dimensional stability and the texture without sacrifice of the nanofiber wiping efficiency, by using such a ground yarn.

It is also possible to prevent deterioration in texture by fall down of the pile filaments, by making the length not more than 10 mm.
  • the nanofiber pile filaments in the pile fabiric of the skin care goods according to the present invention are favorably cut pile. In this way, it is possible to increase the degree of freedom in movement of the nanofiber in pile yarn, to make the tip of the nanofiber fit into the sulcus cutis and pores of the skin, and to increase the wiping efficiency of the yarn. It is further possible to spread the stress applied to the skin widely during wiping and obtain comfortable texture under wet condition.(see Figure 8 ).
  • the possible shapes of the skin care goods according to the present invention include towel, mitten, gloves, finger cot, and the like.
  • the towel shape is preferable, because it allows modification of its use method according to the preference of the user.
  • shapes covering the hand or the finger such as mitten, gloves and finger cot are also favorable, from the point of easiness in handling.
  • double faced pile fabric is a favorable shape of the skin care goods according to the present invention. It is possible, by double faced pile fabric containing nanofiber pile yarns, to make the user use the skin care gooods according to the present invention without recognition of the front or rear face of it and improve the handling efficiency and the impression of use.
  • the pile filaments may be formed directly on both faces of the pile fabric, but, for preparation of a skin care goods with high pile density, it is preferable to laminated two single faced pile fabrics. For example, a method of sewing the edge of the fabric or a method of bonding the pile fabrics with an adhesive agent such as urethane adhesive may be used in laminating the pile fabrics.
