Description
- The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional formed structure. Furthermore, the invention relates to an article comprising a three-dimensional formed structure.
- Polyamide 66 (or PA 66 or PA 6.6) is one of the most widely spread polymers in the textile industry. It has excellent mechanical properties and is inert towards most organic solvents. Known solvents require toxic and harsh conditions such as formic acid, cresol and phenol. Furthermore, polyamide 66 exhibits a low surface energy, which impedes the application in products requiring interfacial adhesion, such as textile composites. Surface treatments such as plasma treatment, grafting and surface roughening with solvents are used. The interaction of the carbonyl group of polyamide 66 and Lewis acids enables Lewis acid-base complexation and dissolution of polyamide 66 in solutions containing GaCl3, AlCl3, CaCl2, BF3, or BCl3. Complexation of polyamide suppresses the hydrogen bonding between the polymer chains and causes dissolution of the polyamide. The use of CaCl2/MeOH solutions to dissolve polyamide has been shown by Sun et al., who supposed a complexation mechanism (Sun et al., Study on the mechanism of nylon 66 dissolving process using CaCl2/MeOH as the solvent. Chin. J. Polym. Sci., 1994). Li et al. used CaCl2/EtOH to modify the surface roughness of Kevlar fibres (Li et al., Effect of Calcium Chloride on the Surface Properties of Kevlar Fiber, J. Appl. Polym. Sci, 2015).
- The effect of swelling of polyamide 6.6 in a mixture of CaCl2/H2O/EtOH is disclosed in
EP 3 378 988 A1 . The polyamide fibre is exposed to a mixture of CaCl2/H2O/EtOH, wherein the CaCl2 content is > 6 mol%, the EtOH content is < 25 mol% and the H2O/EtOH molar ratio is > 2.5. Further investigations on the CaCl2/H2O/EtOH solvent system are described in Rietzler, B., T. Bechtold and T. Pham (2018) "Controlled Surface Modification of Polyamide 6.6 Fibres Using CaCl2/H2O/EtOH Solutions", Polymers 10(2): 207. Different compositions of CaCl2/H2O/EtOH and their effect on polyamide 66 fibres are investigated and the kinetics of the dissolution and swelling are reported. In Rietzler, B., T. Bechtold and T. Pham (2019). "Spatial structure investigation of porous shell layer formed by swelling of PA66 fibres in CaCl2/H2O/EtOH mixtures." Langmuir, 35(14): 4902-4908, the structure of the porous shell layer formed by swelling of the fibres in the solvent mixtures is investigated with AFM-IR. - The inventors of the present invention have now found that treatment of textile fabric comprising polyamide with CaCl2/H2O/EtOH mixtures in a defined concentration range, for a defined exposure time and a defined temperature yields modified polyamide with specific properties, in particular, it was found that textile fabrics treated under such conditions allow the formation of articles with a three-dimensional structure. Furthermore, the invention allows to form three-dimensional structures having soft and hard segments without any additional joining steps.
- Accordingly, the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a three-dimensional formed structure from a textile fabric, comprising the steps of
- (a) providing a textile fabric comprising polyamide;
- (b) contacting the textile fabric with a treatment solution, wherein the treatment solution comprises a mixture of CaCl2, EtOH (ethanol) and H2O, wherein the CaCl2 content is > 6 mol%, the EtOH content is < 25 mol%, the molar ratio between CaCl2 : EtOH : H2O is between 1 : 0.6 - 2 : 3.4 - 7 and the H2O/EtOH molar ratio is > 2.5. for at least 1 second and at most 4 hours by immersion or for at least 1 s and at most 5 minutes by spraying;
- (c) squeezing of the treatment solution from the fabric to adjust the solvent content in the fabric;
- (d) consolidating the textile fabric for 1 s to 60 minutes while the textile fabric is still containing the treatment solution while the temperature of the textile fabric is kept between 10 °C to 120 °C with the provision that the temperature is at least 100 °C below the melting point Tm of the polyamide and by forming the textile fabric in the desired three-dimensional structure;
- (e) quenching the treatment solution while the formed textile fabric still contains treatment solution by adding water and/or by evaporating ethanol out from the fabric;
- (f) obtaining the formed textile fabric followed by washing and drying.
- The steps are performed in the described order.
- Surprisingly, the treatment of a flowing fabric comprising polyamide with a mixture of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O as described above allows forming the fabric into a three dimensionally shaped article. The stability of the formed textile fabric is surprising in view of the prior art such as
EP 3 378 988 A1 which describes surface modification lowering the overall stability of the polyamide. The present invention now shows that a treatment solution with a mixture of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O under well-defined conditions results in a three-dimensional stable article. Furthermore, when applying the septs (a) to (f) on selected parts of a fabric, a combination of soft segments and hard three dimensionally shaped structures can be formed without any additional joining steps between those segments. - The textile fabric is a knitted fabric or woven fabric, comprising interlacing threads or a nonwoven. The basis weight of the textile fabric is preferably in the range between 10 and 220 g/m2, more preferably 30 and 180 g/m2. Such a textile fabric has no dimensional stability before treatment. However, after the treatment according to the invention, the basis weight remains the same (preferably in the range between 10 and 220 g/m2, more preferably 30 and 180 g/m2) but it has dimensional stability.
- Preferably, the contacting step of the fabric sample in a treatment solution of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O is carried out for at least 10 s and at most 60 minutes.
- More preferably, the contacting step of the fabric sample in a treatment solution of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O is carried out and immediately followed by squeezing and consolidating.
- When spraying technique of the treatment solution of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O on the fabric is applied, the spraying time is preferably at least 5 s and at most 2.5 minutes immediately followed by squeezing and consolidating steps.
- Preferably, the molar ratio between CaCl2: EtOH : H2O is approximately 1 : 1.5 : 5.5.
- The contacting step of the of the fabric in the treatment solution can be immersion with a squeezer, spraying, dipping, pressing etc. Preferably, the contacting step of the fabric sample in the treatment solution of CaCl2/EtOH/H2O is carried out for approximately 2 minutes.
- During squeezing of the treatment solution (step (c)) from the fabrics to adjust the solvent content in the fabrics also pressure can be applied to pre-form the shape of the textile fabric.
- The temperature in step (d) is between 10 °C to 120 °C with the provision that the temperature is at least 100 °C below the melting point of the polyamide and can involve heating and/or cooling depending on the conditions.
- Obtaining the formed textile fabric in step (f) can involve isolating of the formed fabric.
- Different ways of forming are possible. One preferred way of forming includes applying a pressure of between 0.1 bar and 100 bar, preferably 2 to 12 bar to the textile fabric.
- In a very preferred embodiment only a selected part of the textile fabric sample comprising polyamide is formed. This allows the formation of an article, comprising areas with flexible textile fabric and formed, stable textile fabric. Thus, articles comprising soft segments and hard three dimensionally shaped structures can be formed without any additional joining steps between those segments.
- In a preferred embodiment the polyamide (PA) is an AB polymer, an AA/BB polymer or a mixture thereof, wherein the AB polymer comprises the following structure units -[NH-(CH2)x-CO]n- and the AA/BB polymer comprises the following structure units -[NH-(CH2)x-NH-CO-(CH2)y-CO]n-.
- PA are usually categorized as AB polymers and AA/BB polymers. PA of the AB polymer type comprise the following structure units
-[NH-(CH2)x-CO]n-.
- For x = 5 ist the PA type is PA 6, because the repetitive unit has 6 carbon atoms.
- PA of the AA/BB polymer type comprise the following structure units.
-[NH-(CH2)x-NH-CO-(CH2)y-CO]n-.
- In case x = 6 and y = 4 the PA type is PA 6.6, since the first repetitive units comprises 6 carbon atoms and the second repetitive unit comprises 6 carbon units.
- While the invention extends to the known PA types, the preferred PA types are PA 6 and PA 6.6. The most preferred one is PA 6.6.
- PA 6.6. has a melting point Tm of 264 °C.
- The invention further relates to a textile fabric comprising a three-dimensional formed structure obtainable by a method as described above.
- Furthermore, the invention relates to an article, comprising at least
- a first area, consisting of a textile fabric comprising polyamide (PA) and
- a second area, consisting of a formed textile fabric comprising polyamide,
- The textile fabric is a woven fabric comprising interlacing threads. The basis weight of the textile fabric in the first area is preferably in the range between 10 and 220 g/m2, more preferably 30 and 180 g/m2 and the basis weight in the second area is preferably in the range between 10 and 220 g/m2, more preferably 30 and 180 g/m2. Most preferably, the basis weight of the textile fabric in the first area is essentially the same as the basis weight of the textile fabric in the second area.

band (produced by band weaving) of 60% polyamide and 40% polyethylenterephthalat with 13 cm width and 30 g/m density. - The application of the treatment solution on the fabrics was done using different techniques:
- Samples were immersed in a bath of treatment solution in a ratio sample : solution 1 kg : 10-20 liters. Spraying of the treatment solution with 33 g solvent / 1 m2 fabric
- Impregnation by calendaring with a solvent uptake of 1 litre on 1 kg fabric
- Combination of methods described above
- The contact time of the treatment solvent on the fabrics is varied between 1 and 60 min before forming (consolidating) step.
- As treatment solution, the following combinations have been investigated:
CaCl2 / mol% EtOH / mol% H2O / mol% 10.00% 20.00% 70.00% 12.50% 18.75% 68.75% 13.33% 13.33% 73.33% 17.16% 20.71% 62.13% 18.00% 12.50% 69.50% 11.11% 11.11% 77.78% - Bending stiffness was determined following the cantilever method (ASTM D5732-95, 2001). Stripes of approx. 2 cm width and 10 cm length were tested using a fabric stiffness tester Model 112 (Taber Industries, New York, USA). The fabric stripe slowly is pushed over a sharp edge and the stripe starts to bend due to its own weight. When the stripe has reached a bending angle of 41.5 ° the length of the bent fabric stripe is recorded. The length of the bent stripe then is a measure for the stiffness of the sample. Bending was measured for both sides of the fabric (two repetitions each) and the mean value of these four results was calculated.
