Definitions
- the present invention relates to a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric composed of polyolefin fibers, which is excellent in waterproofness and softness, and is excellent in moldability as building material applications.
- nonwoven fabrics have been used in various applications and are expected to grow in the future.
- the nonwoven fabrics are employed in a wide range of applications such as industrial materials, civil engineering materials, building materials, living materials, agricultural materials, sanitary materials, and medical materials.
- a ventilation layer construction method In recent construction of buildings such as a wooden house, a ventilation layer construction method has been widely employed. In the method, a ventilation layer is provided between an outer wall material and a heat insulation material, and moisture that has penetrated into a wall body is released to the outside through the ventilation layer.
- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric is utilized as a house wrapping material which is a breathable-waterproof sheet having both waterproofness of preventing rainwater from infiltrating from the outside of a building and breathability of allowing moisture in the wall escape to the outside.
- the spun-bonded nonwoven fabric is excellent in breathability because of its structure, while it has poor waterproofness. Therefore, the spun-bonded nonwoven fabric is made into a laminate with a film with excellent waterproofness to make a breathable-waterproof sheet for use as a house wrapping material.
- the house wrapping material is fixed on a base by a binding needle (also referred to as a tucker needle or a staple) and employed in a construction work. It is thus required to have excellent durability over a long period of time, weather resistance under conditions of high temperature and low temperature, durability (hydrolysis resistance) of long term use, and excellent moldability at the time of construction.
- a binding needle also referred to as a tucker needle or a staple
- a house wrapping material which is a laminate of a polyester-based nonwoven fabric having a fiber diameter of 3 to 28 microns and a basis weight of 5 to 50 g/m 2 , and a film having a thickness of 7 to 60 microns made of block copolymerized polyester having a hard segment and a soft segment superposed on the nonwoven fabric, has been proposed (see Patent Literature 1). Furthermore, a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric which is configured from polyolefin fibers that have excellent spinnability even if the single fiber diameter thereof is small, and which exhibits high flexibility and high uniformity has been described (see Patent Literature 2).
- Patent Literature 3 provides a spunbond nonwoven fabric made of a specific crystalline resin composition and particularly provides a polypropylene spunbond nonwoven fabric having a very small fiber diameter and providing an excellent feel to the touch, and a polypropylene spunbond nonwoven fabric exhibiting high softness.
- Patent Literature 4 discloses a spunbonded non-woven made of polyolefin filaments having a titer ⁇ 1.6 dtex and which is characterized by special mechanical properties.

- a pair of embossing rolls composed of an upper roll, which was a metallic embossing roll having polka dots formed by engraving and having a proportion of bonding area of 16%, and a lower roll, which was a metallic flat roll, was used to heat-bond the obtained nonwoven fiber web at a linear pressure of 300 N/cm and a heat-bonding temperature of 130°C, and a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 30 g/m 2 was obtained.
- the obtained spun-bonded nonwoven fabric was evaluated by measuring the thickness, the apparent density, the maximum pore size, the average pore size, the kinetic friction coefficient between the fibers, the MFR of the fibers, and the water pressure resistance per unit basis weight. The results thereof are shown in Table 1.
- a nonwoven fabric composed of long polypropylene fibers was obtained by the same method as in Example 1, except that the single-hole discharge rate was changed to 0.21 g/min, and the ejector pressure was changed to 0.50 MPa.
- the spun-bonded long fibers obtained had the following properties.
- the average single fiber diameter was 7.2 ⁇ m, and the spinning speed calculated therefrom was 5,700 m/min. With respect to spinnability, no filament breakage occurred during 1-hour spinning, and the fiber had good spinnability. The results thereof are shown in Table 1.

- the spun-bonded long fibers obtained had the following properties.
- the average single fiber diameter was 8.9 ⁇ m, and the spinning speed calculated therefrom was 5,600 m/min. With respect to spinnability, no filament breakage occurred during 1-hour spinning, and the fiber had good spinnability. The results thereof are shown in Table 1.
- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric was obtained by the same method as in Example 1, except that 1.0% by mass ethylene bisstearic acid amide was added as a fatty acid amide compound to the polypropylene resin composed of a homopolymer. The results thereof are shown in Table 1.
- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric was obtained by the same method as in Example 2, except that 1.0% by mass ethylene bisstearic acid amide was added as a fatty acid amide compound to the polypropylene resin composed of a homopolymer. The results thereof are shown in Table 1.
- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric was obtained by the same method as in Example 3, except that 1.0% by mass ethylene bisstearic acid amide was added as a fatty acid amide compound to the polypropylene resin composed of a homopolymer. Results are shown in Table 2.
- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric composed of long polypropylene fibers was obtained by the same method as in Example 1, except that 1.0% by mass of ethylene bisstearic acid amide was added as a fatty acid amide compound to the polypropylene resin composed of a homopolymer having an MFR of 60 g/10 min, and an ejector pressure was 0.20 MPa.
- the spun-bonded long fibers obtained had the following properties. The average single fiber diameter was 11.8 ⁇ m, and the spinning speed calculated therefrom was 3,200 m/min. With respect to spinnability, no filament breakage occurred during 1-hour spinning, and the fiber had good spinnability. Results are shown in Table 2.

- a spun-bonded nonwoven fabric was obtained by the same method as in Comparative Example 1, except that the ejector pressure was changed to 0.15 MPa by using the polypropylene resin composed of a homopolymer having an MFR of 35 g/10 min. Results are shown in Table 2.
- the spun-bonded nonwoven fabrics of Examples 1 to 7 had the average single fiber diameter of 6.5 to 11.9 ⁇ m, the average pore diameter of the nonwoven fabric surface of 0.1 to 25 ⁇ m since the single fiber CV was small and uniform. And they had the maximum pore diameter of 50 ⁇ m or less, so that they had the water pressure resistance per unit basis weight of 7 mm H 2 O/(g/m 2 ) or more of excellent water resistance., And the also had excellent softness and moldability. Particularly, in Examples 4 to 6 in which ethylene bis-stearic acid amide was added, because of a small friction coefficient between fibers, moderate slipperiness at the time of collecting the fiber web was given.
