Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to shoes and the manufacturing thereof. More particularly the invention pertains to shoes with a sole of a thermoplastic material and a method for making a workpiece that can be used in the manufacturing of such shoes.
  • Soles comprise the same basic parts. All shoes have a sole, which is the bottom of a shoe, in contact with the ground. Soles can be made from a variety of materials, although most modern shoes have soles made from natural rubber, polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA). Soles can be simple, a single material in a single layer, but most often they are more complex, with multiple structures or layers and materials. When various layers are used, soles may consist of an insole (also known as a sock liner), a midsole, and an outsole (i.e. the layer in direct contact with the ground). The midsole is the layer in between the outsole and the insole, typically there for shock absorption.
  • insole also known as a sock liner
  • midsole i.e. the layer in direct contact with the ground.
  • the midsole is the layer in between the outsole and the insole, typically there for shock absorption.
  • the upper shoe helps hold the shoe onto the foot. In the simplest cases, such as sandals or flip-flops, this may be nothing more than a few straps for holding the sole in place. Closed shoes, such as boots, trainers and most men's shoes, will have a more complex upper. This part is often decorated or is made in a certain style to look attractive.
  • the upper may be connected to the sole by a strip of leather, rubber, or plastic that is stitched between it and the sole, or it may be glued to the sole by using an adhesive.
  • the upper shoe is in most cases glued to the midsole (the latter being an important item for such shoes) using a solvent based adhesive, either using an aqueous solvent (such as water based PUD's, polyurethane adhesives) or a non-aqueous solvent (such as polychloroprene or styrene-isoprene-styrene adhesives).
  • aqueous solvent such as water based PUD's, polyurethane adhesives
  • a non-aqueous solvent such as polychloroprene or styrene-isoprene-styrene adhesives.
  • Hot melt adhesives have the advantage of being (almost) solvent free and allowing very short processing times without any foaming tendency during processing, but the adhering properties on the relatively smooth soles are relatively bad. This is in particular true when adhering an upper shoe to a sole of a thermoplastic material.
  • the latter type of material would in principle be preferred over the commonly used EVA (that is typically used for mid-soles) because of its easy recyclability when compared to EVA, the finished foam of which has thermoset properties that prevent recycling by simply melting the material and reprocessing it.
  • EVA is still the polymer of choice, using solvent based adhesives to adhere the upper shoe.
  • GB 1247855 (filed 1967 , published 1971) describes the problem of using a hot melt adhesive to bond the upper shoe to a sole of plasticised polyvinyl chloride.
  • the solution proposed in this patent is to use a polyester hot melt adhesive that includes a quantity of a nitrogen containing organic compound having a polar group, such as N-Butyl-Benzenesulphonamide or N-Ethyl-P-tolylsulphonamide.
  • a nitrogen containing organic compound having a polar group such as N-Butyl-Benzenesulphonamide or N-Ethyl-P-tolylsulphonamide.
  • N-Butyl-Benzenesulphonamide is neurotoxic and has been found to induce spastic myelopathy in rabbits.
  • N-Ethyl-P-tolylsulphonamide is toxic and highly irritating.
  • GB 2048897 (filed 1979 , published 1980) states (page 1, lines 14-16) that it is known that the receptiveness of elastomeric soling material towards adhesives and to thermoplastic materials is often unsatisfactory.
  • the solution proposed is to use aggressive primers comprising an organic halogen donor, like mixtures of isocyanuric chloride and a sulphonamide such as, for example, p-toluene sulphonamide, for promoting adhesion.
  • These primers are toxic, irritating and environmentally unfriendly.
  • JP 2003 266557 A discloses a process for preparing a shoe comprising a cover and a sole, wherein a heat sealable film is attached to the cover.
  • the heat sealable film melts during the process and adheres the sole to the cover. It is not disclosed that a hot melt is fused to a thermoplastic material which results in the absence of a borderline and/or distinct boundary between materials in Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM) pictures at an enlargement of 500 to 1000 times.
  • SEM Scanning Electronic Microscopy
  • JP 2017 192559 A discloses a shoe comprising an upper and a sole composed of the same thermoplastic base material. It is disclosed that the upper and sole can be connected by providing a hot melt adhesive between the sole and the upper or by heating the sole and the upper composed of the same thermoplastic base material and pressing them together. It is not disclosed that the temperatures of the hot melt adhesive and the thermoplastic base materials are chosen such that (T HM + T SUB )/2 is equal to or higher than (T M -10°C).
  • thermoplastic material per se is less receptive for adhering to another material, in particular a hot melt adhesive, it provides the option of melting an upper region of the body (i.e. a region that has a thickness beyond molecular scale, at least being at a micrometer level or beyond, i.e. 1 ⁇ m or thicker, e.g.
  • the invention also relates to a method of assembling a workpiece as defined in claim 13.
  • the total heat available is sufficient to melt the upper region of the thermoplastic body upon contact with the hot met adhesive, and fusing the two molten substances is allowed, in particular when applying pressure, e.g. when applying the upper shoe (wherein the molten hot melt adhesive may have been applied as such to the sole before applying the upper shoe, or may have been pre-applied to this upper shoe and kept at a sufficient temperature while in contact with this upper shoe alone).
  • the melting of a thin upper region of the thermoplastic body could be accomplished in various ways (using e.g. convection of hot air or a liquid, radiation, etc.) it was found that a very simple way is to use the heat capacity of the hot melt adhesive and the body themselves to provide the heat for melting the upper region of the thermoplastic body.
  • thermoplastic body by providing the fusion between the hot melt adhesive and the thermoplastic body, a very strong mechanical connection may be obtained, without the need for applying special organic molecules, primers or using complicated heating procedures and equipment.
  • a shoe is an outer covering for the human foot typically having a thick or stiff sole with an attached heel and an upper part (also denoted as the upper shoe) of lighter material, such as a textile or leather sheeting.
  • a hot melt adhesive is a thermoplastic adhesive with no (less than 1 or 2 wt%) solvent. Upon heating the adhesive softens in order to be applied to a substrate. Preferably the hot melt adhesive undergoes a first order phase transition when being heated and transformed from a solid into a liquid.
  • thermoplastic material is a material (typically a synthetic polymer material) that becomes plastic, e.g. shapeable, upon heating and hardens upon cooling to retain desired shape and is able to reversibly undergo this process repeatedly.
  • the melting temperature (T M ) of the thermoplastic material is the peak melting temperature as defined in ASTM D3418 measured during the second heating step in a Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) experiment conducted at 10°C/min heating rate. If multiple peaks are present, then the first peak (e.g. lowest temperature) corresponding to the melting of the hard block of the thermoplastic elastomer should be taken.
  • a first order phase transition temperature of a material is the temperature at which the material undergoes a discontinuous change in density.
  • first order transitions are melting (solid to liquid conversion) and evaporating (liquid to gas conversion).
  • a glass-transition is a second order transition since there is no discontinuous change in density.
  • a body is a solid 3-dimensional object having predetermined dimensions.
  • To be fused means to unite to form a single entity by melting or as if by melting, in particular which results in the absence of a borderline and/or distinct boundary between materials in Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM) pictures at an enlargement of 500 to 1000 times.
  • SEM Scanning Electronic Microscopy
  • a textile material is a material that is consists in essence (for more than 50%, for example more than 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, or even more than 90%) of fibrous material such as polymeric yarns.
  • a body being composed of a thermoplastic material means that the basic structure of the body consists of a thermoplastic material, the material typically containing over 50% (on a weight basis), preferably over 60%, 70%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 91%, 92%, 93%, 94%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99% or even up to 100% of a thermoplastic polymer.
  • a workpiece is an assembly of materials that is used in manufacturing an end product.
  • a smooth surface is a surface not having a regular or irregular pattern of protrusions that are tactually perceived as "rough" by man, i.e. not having a pattern of protrusions with an average height above 100 ⁇ m, preferably not above 90 ⁇ m, 80 ⁇ m, 70 ⁇ m, 60 ⁇ m, 50 ⁇ m, 40 ⁇ m, 30 ⁇ m, 20 ⁇ m, 10 ⁇ m, 9 ⁇ m, 8 ⁇ m, 7 ⁇ m, 6 ⁇ m, 5 ⁇ m, 4 ⁇ m, 3 ⁇ m, 2 ⁇ m or even 1 ⁇ m, and a surface not having a regular or irregular pattern of indentations or cavities that are visually perceived as the inverse of such protrusions, i.e.

  • Such heating can for example be established by warming the whole second body in an oven or microwave or in a heated mold.
  • Such heating thus differs from partial heating of the upper region, which can be achieved by external radiation or convection, i.e. heating only the outer side of the second body.
  • the temperatures are chosen such that (T HM + T SUB )/2 differs from T M by a number of degrees chosen from the group consisting of -10, -9, -8, -7, -6, - 5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3, +4, +5, +6, +7, +8, +9, +10, +11, +12, +13, +14, +15, +16, +17, +18, +19 or +20°C.
  • a higher number leads to a larger part of the upper region of the thermoplastic body to be melted. However, advantageously, this part should not become too thick, since it will not increase the bonding strength, but may negatively influence the shape and mechanical properties of the thermoplastic body. Hence the preferred upper limit of 20°C.
  • the second body is heated such that the thermoplastic material obtains a temperature T SUB that is at most X °C less than T M , X being chosen from the group that consists of 100, 90, 80, 70, 60, 55, 50, 45, 40, 35 and 30. It was found that the thermoplastic body preferably is not heated to temperature too close to its melting temperature.
  • Example 1 describes the connection of two thermoplastic bodies using a hot melt adhesive.
  • Figure 1 schematically shows the interaction between hot melt adhesive 4 and various substrates (200, 200' and 200").
  • FIG 1A the interaction between a layer 4 of hot melt adhesive in its hardened form (thus after application in liquid form and subsequent cooling down to below its solidification temperature) and a non-smooth surface of a body 200 is depicted.
  • the surface of the body has various protrusions (201) and indentations (202) which serve as anchoring point for the hardened hot melt adhesive. This brings about a good mechanical connection between the hot melt adhesive 4 and the body 200.
  • FIG 1B a situation is depicted wherein the body 200' has a smooth surface, leading to the absence of anchoring points for the hot melt adhesive 4. This means that the mechanical connection, if any, between the layer of hot melt adhesive 4 and the body 200' is very weak. The layers can be easily separated by using a slight pulling force to either of the layers.
  • FIG 1C the situation is depicted where body 200" is made of a thermoplastic material and the hot melt adhesive is heated sufficiently just before application thereof, to make sure that the upper region of the body 200" is heated to above its melting temperature.
  • the molecules of the molten hot melt adhesive and the molten body 200" may be able to mix and unite (to fuse) to form one new intermediate material 204, which material may ultimately (after solidification of all molten material) serve as a mechanical bridge between the layer of hot melt adhesive 4 and the body 200".
  • the layers 4 and 200" gradually change from one pure material to another with the mixed material of a gradually changing composition in between.
  • Figure 2 schematically shows in a cross section the constituting parts of a workpiece 1 for use in the manufacture of a shoe (which need not be more than the workpiece itself).
  • part 2 is the (mid-)sole of the shoe, in this case consisting of a foamed composition comprising a copolyether-ester elastomer (55wt% PTMO and 45wt% PBT with respect to the amount of copolyether-ester elastomer) in an amount of 85wt%, and 15wt% epoxidised soybean oil as a plasticizer with respect to the total amount of foamed composition, leading to a foam having a density of 0.24 g/cm 3 and having T M of 160°C.
  • the upper shoe 3 consists of a textile base layer and a top coat of polyurethane (see figure 3 ).
  • Part 30 is a segment of the upper shoe 3 that is used for adhering the upper shoe 3 to the sole 2 using a hot melt adhesive (see Example 1).
  • an outer sole 20 is depicted.
  • Figure 3 schematically shows a cross section of a material used for an upper shoe 3 of an athletic shoe.
  • the upper shoe 3 consists of a textile base layer 31 and a top coat of polyurethane (32).
  • the textile layer 31 is the layer that will be used to make the connection with the sole as indicated in Figure 2 .
  • Figure 4 schematically shows a test set-up for measuring the strength of a mechanical connection brought about by a hot melt adhesive (in line with standardised method ASTM D3936).
  • a hot melt adhesive in line with standardised method ASTM D3936.
  • two bodies 2 and 3 having a width L are mechanically connected with a layer of hot melt adhesive 4. These layers are separated at one of the ends, exerting a separating force F.
  • Example 1 describes the connection of a thermoplastic body using a hot melt adhesive.
  • a hot melt adhesive In order to assess whether a hot melt adhesive could be used to adhere a first body to a thermoplastic body, two thermoplastic bodies were chosen, in this case foamed thermoplastic bodies as described in connection with figure 2 .
  • the melting temperature T M of these bodies is 160°C (determined with ASTM D3418-03 as described in this patent application).
  • a polyester hot melt adhesive having a melting enthalpy of 27t3 J/g was used (the determination of which is based on ASTM standard D3418 using a Mettler STARe differential scanning calorimeter), showing a first order transition temperature (solid to liquid) around 110°C.
  • the hot melt was heated to a temperature of 180°C, thus well above its melting temperature and at a level that is common for using this hot melt to obtain strong connections.
  • the thermoplastic bodies were preheated to various temperatures, ranging from 80°C to 100°C before the hot melt adhesive was applied, meaning that (T HM + T SUB )/2 varied from 130 to 140°C, i.e. 30° to 20° below T M . Directly after application of the adhesive, both bodies were pressed together. In none of the cases a good mechanical connection could be obtained. F/L was less than 5 N/inch value for each workpiece. This confirmed the common knowledge that thermoplastic materials cannot be adequately connected using a hot melt adhesive.
  • the hot melt adhesive was heated to 210°C (i.e. still well below the temperature at which the polyester hot melt adhesive would (start to) degrade, i.e. around 250°C) and the thermoplastic bodies to a temperature ranging from 120 to 130°C, meaning that (T HM + T SUB )/2 varied from 165 to 170°C, i.e. 5° to 10° over T M . Either one or both sides of the bodies were provided with the melted adhesive. In addition to the type of polyester adhesive used in the first experiment (“Type 1”), another type was used ("Type 2"). Keeping all other variables the same as in the first experiment, this way a very good mechanical connection between the two thermoplastic bodies could be obtained. The data are indicated in table 1 below.
  • FIG 5 a Scanning Electronic Microscopy (SEM) picture is shown, which demonstrates that at an enlargement of 650 times no boundary between the thermoplastic bodies can be distinguished for the example with the Type 2 adhesive.
  • the upper shoe 3 is connected to midsole 2 in the same way as is schematically depicted in figure 2 .
  • thermoplastic bodies consisting of a foamed composition comprising TPU. Similar results were obtained and connections with high mechanical strengths were provided accordingly.
