Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of dry nonwoven articles comprising abrasive particles.
  • the invention relates particularly to nonwoven articles comproising abrasive particles for use in surface cleaning.
  • Articles containing abrasive components such as particles are known in the art. Such articles may be used for cleaning a variety of surfaces; especially those surfaces that tend to become soiled with difficulty to remove stains and soils. Such articles may comprise a substate and a plurality of abrasive particles where the abrasive particles are disposed either on the surface of the substrate or within the substarte such that the abrasive particles at least partially prodrude from at least one surface and the substate during use. Examples of substrates that might include such abrasive particles include nonwoven articles including disposable wipes, paper towel, floor wipes, home care napkins, beauty care napkins, and baby wipes.
  • abrasive particles include inorganic particles such as carbonate salt, clay, silica, silicate, shale ash, perlite and/or organic particles such as polymeric beads comprised of polypropylene, PVC, melamine, urea, polyacrylate and derivatives.
  • abrasive particles When used as a component of a nonwoven article, many commonly known abrasive particles may not be fully satisfactory.
  • the abrasive particles may separate from the rest of the article, in particular while scouring is exercised with the article. This may lead to inefficient cleaning and to unacceptable deposition of particles on the surface to be cleaned. Separately, the abrasive particles may move or "roll” while scouring, relative to the substrate, again leading to a loss of their abrasive cleaning efficiency.
  • This shape may be expressed as the "Solidity" of the particles.
  • Selecting particles of the specified solidity may lead to both improvements in extent to which the particles are retained by the substrate, and improvements in cleaning by preventing "rolling" of the particles and maintining the orientation of the particles, relative to the substrate and therefore relative to the surface being cleaned, during scouring. Also, maintaining the orientation of the particles relative to the substrate may generate less damage to the surface to be cleaned.
  • a dry nonwoven article comprises a web of fibers and abrasive particles at least particallt embedded in the web, wherein the abrasive particles have a mean solidity below about 0.85.
  • the articles according to the invention have an improved retention of the abrasive particles, in particular during scouring.
  • the specific shape of the abrasive particles leads to an improved maintenance of the particles within the web of fibers as well as improved maintenance of the orientation of the particles relative to the substrate, and therefore relative to the surface being cleaned, which may in turn improve the cleaning properties while having limited damage to the surface to be cleaned.
  • the inventors believe that the improved cleaning efficiency is linked to the fact that the specific shape of the particles limits their rolling within the web of fibers while scouring.

  • Form factor is a mesoshape descriptor and is a quantitative, 2-dimension image analysis shape description and is being measured according to ISO 9276-6:2008(E) section 8.2.
  • Form factor is sometimes described in literature as being the difference between a particle's shape and a perfect sphere.
  • Form factor values range from 0 to 1, where a form factor of 1 describes a perfectly spherical particle or disc-shaped particle as measured in a two dimensional projected image.
  • Form Factor — p2— where A is projection area, which is 2D descriptor and P is the length of the perimeter of the particle.
  • the applicants refer herein to Form factor as being volume-weighted mean Form Factor extracted from a distribution of particle measurements.
  • the MOHS hardness scale referes to an internationally recognized scale for measuring the hardness of a compound versus a compound of known hardness, see Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Kirk-Othmer, 4 th Edition Vol 1, page 18 or Lide, D.R (ed) CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 73 rd edition, Boca Raton, Fla.: The Rubber Company, 1992-1993. Many MOHS Test kits are commercially available containing material with known MOHS hardness.
  • the Shore® D hardness of the materials may be determined according to ASTM D2240-05 (2010). Shore® D hardness measurement may be carried out by using an ASTM durometer, such as the Type D Style Durometer available from Pacific Transducer Corp. of Los Angeles, California, or from ELECTROMATIC Equipment Co., Inc. 600 Oakland Ave Cedarhurst, NY 11516.
  • Solidity is a quantitative, 2-dimensional image analysis shape description, and is being measured according to ISO 9276-6:2008(E) section 8.2 as implemented via the Occhio Nano 500 Particle Characterisation Instrument with its accompanying software Callistro version 25 (Occhio s.a. Med, Belgium).
  • particle shape can be defined in 3-dimension with dedicated analytical technique, the applicant has found, that the characterization of the particles shape in 2- dimension is most relevant and correlates with the abrasive performance of the cleaning particles.
  • the particles are orientated toward the surface - via gravity deposition - similarly to the expected particle orientation during the cleaning process.
  • the object of the present invention regards the characterization of 2-D shape of a particle/particle population as defined by the projection of its shape on the surface on which the particle/particle population is deposited.
  • the non-spherical particle herein has at least one edge or surface having a concave curvature.
  • Solidity is a mesoshape parameter, which describes the overall concavity of a particle or particle population. Solidity values range from 0 to 1, where a solidity number of 1 describes a non-concave particle, as measured in literature as being:
  • A is the projected area of the particle and Ac is the area of the convex hull (envelope) bounding the projection of the particle.
  • the applicants refer herein to solidity as being volume- weighted mean solidity extracted from a distribution of particle measurements.
  • the terms "mean solidity”, or “mean Form factor”, mean the volume-weighted average of the solidity, or Form Factor values from a population of at least about 1000 particles, or at least about 10,000 particles, or above about 50,000 particles, or above about 100,000 particles, after excluding from the measurement and calculation, the solidity or form factor data of particles having area-equivalent diameter (ECD) of below 10 micrometers.
  • ECD area-equivalent diameter
  • the Vickers hardness HV is measured at 23 °C according to standard methods ISO 14577-1, ISO 14577-2, ISO 14577-3.
  • the Vickers hardness is measured from a solid block of the raw material at least 2 mm in thickness.
  • the Vickers hardness micro indentation measurement is carried out by using the Micro-Hardness Tester (MHT), manufactured by CSM Instruments SA, Peseux, Switzerland.
  • MHT Micro-Hardness Tester
  • the test surface should be fiat and smooth, having a roughness (Ra) value less than 5% of the maximum indenter penetration depth. For a 200 micrometer maximum depth this equates to a Ra value less than 10 micrometer.
  • such a surface may be prepared by any suitable means, which may include cutting the block of test material with a new sharp microtome or scalpel blade, grinding, polishing or by casting melted material onto a flat, smooth casting form and allowing it to thoroughly solidify prior testing.
  • suitable general settings for the Micro-Hardness Tester (MHT) are as follows:
  • nonwoven means: a manufactured sheet, web or bate of directionally or randomly orientated fibers, bonded by friction, and/or cohesion and/or adhesion, excluding paper and products which are woven, knitted, tufted, stitch-bonded incoqjoratmg binding yarns or filaments, or felted by wet-milling, whether or not additionally needled.
  • the fibers may be of natural or man-made origin and may be staple or continuous filaments or be formed in situ, Commercially available fibers have diameters ranging from less than about 0.001 mm to more than about 0.2 mm and they come in several different forms: short fibers (known as staple, or chopped), continuous single fibers (filaments or monofilaments), untwisted bundles of continuous filaments (tow), and twisted bundles of continuous filaments (yarn).
  • Nonwoven fabrics can be formed by many processes such as meltbl owing, spunbonding, solvent spinning, electro spinning, and carding. The basis weight of nonwoven fabrics is usually expressed in grams per square meter (gsm).
