  • the purpose of the bicomponent fibers is to improve the properties of the fibers or the properties of spunbonded nonwoven webs.
  • the properties of a spunbond depend on a variety of factors. Some of these influencing factors on the properties of a spunbonded fabric are properties of the respective fibers used, such as their strength.
  • a widely accepted theory, at least in its basic idea, is that the properties of the resulting bicomponent fiber then become one Combining the properties of the individual components of the bicomponent fiber, in which the properties of the individual components complement each other so as to combine the advantages of the properties of both components in the bicomponent fiber.
  • a fiber which has both a high strength and exhibits advantageous behavior when bonding the fibers to one another in nonwoven production, it is advisable to have a first component with a high strength with a second component which has good bondability , to combine.

  • One of the positive effects of the present invention is that the proportion of recycled material that can be added to one of the components in making the bicomponent fiber increases over conventional fibers. It has been found that the use of components having combined melting points according to the invention makes the change in the properties of a component caused by the addition of recycled material much lower than with conventional fibers.

  • These two characteristics of a spunbond fabric made from the fibers can be improved by the advantageously selected MFIs. Even a simultaneous increase in both characteristic values is possible, but in any case one of the two characteristic values can be improved without the other characteristic value deteriorating. This also has a positive effect on the haptic properties. In this way, the specific breaking strength can be increased without negatively influencing softness and the so-called "textile feel.” Textile feel is understood to mean a feeling of touch that is perceived as pleasant.

  • the advantage of these catalysts is that the polymers prepared with these catalysts have a narrow molecular weight distribution.
  • the narrow molecular weight distribution leads to nonwovens with high elongation at break. In this case, the elongation at break is the elongation of the fibers, which results at the maximum of the breaking force, which is used when tearing a nonwoven strip. Above all, however, a narrow molecular weight distribution leads to an increase in process reliability in the production of the spunbonded nonwovens.
  • the frequency of spinning disorders is reduced. Furthermore, a higher draw of the fibers is possible, higher spinning speeds can be achieved and the titers that can be achieved are lower. Lower titers mean a higher fineness of the fibers and / or of the yarns obtained from the fibers.
  • metallocene catalysts or the polymers prepared by means of metallocene catalysts is that the residual content of the catalyst in the polymer is very low.
  • the residual content of the catalyst in the polymer is an impurity of the polymer and can cause the properties of the polymer to be undesirably altered. For example, it can lead to discoloration in the processing of the polymer.
  • a disadvantage of the metallocene catalysts is their slightly higher price compared to the Ziegler-Natta catalysts. Furthermore, a thermal hardening of the fibers in the nonwoven production in the use of metallocene catalysts can be difficult. This may be the case if the possibilities opened up by the use of metallocene catalysts to increase the crystallinity and strength of the individual fibers by virtue of their higher drawability are utilized to a great extent.

  • the polymers produced with Ziegler-Natta catalysts are therefore usually aftertreated. This aftertreatment is called "visbreaking".
  • visbreaking In the process of visbreaking polymer chains are cleaved, which reduces the molecular weight of the individual molecules and increases the number of molecules. This also reduces the width of the molecular weight distribution. The cleavage of the polymer chains is brought about by heat, irradiation, the addition of peroxide, or by similar means. Examples of such visbreaking treatments include in the US 4,282,076 and the US 5,723,217 described.
