2. Description of the Related Art A continuous filament spun from a spinneret is pulled at high speed by air soccer or the like, and then is charged against a collision plate mainly composed of lead to open the filament, and then collected on a moving net conveyor. Non-woven fabrics are generally obtained by partially thermocompression bonding with a heated embossing roll to form a non-woven fabric, or by mechanically entangled a laminated web collected on a net with a needle punch to form a non-woven fabric. It is widely used for materials and the like, and especially in filter applications, because of its high performance, durability and workability, the demand as a paper filter replacement is growing more and more.

However, nonwoven fabrics having a high basis weight, such as a sheet basis weight of, for example, 120 g / m 2 or more, generally have poor thermocompression bonding in the thickness direction even when thermocompression-bonded with an embossing roll. When the thickness is sufficient, delamination at the center of the thickness is easy, and the embossed sheet is easily taken up by the roll due to dirt on the surface of the embossing roll, and the surface layer of the nonwoven fabric is partially peeled off. Therefore, when such a nonwoven fabric is pleated for a filter,
Not only is the pleating property not good, but also fine particles are leaked from partially peeled portions.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The basic idea of the present invention is to use a core-sheath type filament having a high-melting-point component and a low-melting-point sheath as a filter material made of a non-woven fabric, and in particular, to partially thermocompression-bond it. By using a nonwoven fabric having an extremely large basis weight of 200 to 360 g / m 2 , good filter collection performance and shape retention after pleating are realized.

The nonwoven fabric as a constituent material of the filter material of the present invention has a core made of a core-sheath type filament having a high melting point component and a sheath having a low melting point component, and has a basis weight of 200 to 200%.
It is in the range of 360 g / m 2 and is partially thermocompression-bonded.

If the basis weight is less than 200 g / m 2, it may not be desirable because there may be inconveniences such as the necessity of frequently changing the filter material without reaching the desired level in terms of the collecting ability depending on the application. On the other hand, when it is larger than 360 g / m 2 , pleating becomes difficult, and although the filter performance is good, it may not be practical as one member for constituting the device after all.

Y / X 2 ≧ 0.03, where X ≧ 200 When such a value is less than 0.03, only a pleat having a sharpness and lack of uniformity due to insufficient rigidity of the nonwoven fabric can be obtained. In addition, not only the workability is poor, but also it becomes difficult to incorporate it into the filter unit.

The pressure-bonding area of the nonwoven fabric is preferably 3
It is preferably 5% or less, more preferably 30% or less, in order to improve the pressure loss of the filter and the filter life. If it exceeds 35%, the thickness of the nonwoven fabric decreases, but the compression efficiency decreases, so the compression depth tends to be shallow, and the delamination tends to occur easily. It is easy to cause problems such as peeling and dust leakage from the same part, and it also leads to filter defects due to poor workability when assembling into the filter unit or poor sealing property of the nonwoven fabric peeling part when fixing to the unit with resin. Problems are more likely to occur.

It is preferable that the ratio of the thickness of the press-bonded portion to the non-press-bonded portion is 65% or less. When the thickness retention rate of the crimped portion is out of the range, the bonding point is peeled off when folded, such as pleating, even if there is no apparent defect in the surface layer of the nonwoven fabric due to insufficient crimping force. Peeling occurs, filter performance,
Satisfactory filter base materials such as pleating performance are difficult to obtain.

As the filament constituting the non-woven fabric, as in the present invention, in the case of a non-woven fabric having a high basis weight of 200 g / m 2 or more, a core-sheath type filament composed of a high melting point component and a low melting point component may be used. is important. For example, in the case of a single component filament such as a high melting point component alone, simply increasing the temperature and pressure of the embossing roll often results in insufficient adhesion, delamination occurs, filter performance, and pleating. It is difficult to obtain a satisfactory filter base material such as performance. Alternatively, in the case of a single component filament having only a low melting point with good adhesiveness, although the thermal adhesiveness is improved, the strength of the filter is low due to the low strength of the filament, and the heat as a filter is low. It is generally difficult to obtain a satisfactory filter substrate in terms of stability.

It is also conceivable to impregnate a resin such as an acrylic resin in order to cover the adhesive force of the filament. In such a case, the porosity of the filament constituting the nonwoven fabric is reduced, and the dust collection efficiency is reduced. Problems, such as a decrease in the temperature, should be avoided.

The high-melting and low-melting polymers used for the filament include polyester, nylon, polypropylene, copolymers thereof, and the like, or resins obtained by adding a third component to these polymers. May be adopted. Further, the filament form of the low melting point component and the high melting point component in the present invention is a core-sheath filament in which the low melting point component covers the high melting point component.

In the present invention, the ratio of the low melting point component is preferably in the range of 5 to 30% by weight with respect to the total fiber components, and when the ratio of the low melting point component is less than 5% by weight,
A portion where the low melting point component cannot coat around the high melting point component is apt to be generated. In such a case, there is a problem that the spun yarn is apt to be broken in the uncoated portion and a product defect is apt to occur. On the other hand, when the low melting point component exceeds 30% by weight, it is effective to raise the temperature of the embossing roll to a temperature close to the melting point of the low melting point polymer. From the surface layer of the nonwoven fabric, and it is difficult to provide a satisfactory filter base material.

The fineness of the filaments constituting the nonwoven fabric is preferably in the range of 1 to 10 deniers. If the fineness is less than 1 denier, it may be difficult to collect the product due to poor spinnability. There are many problems such as low productivity and unprofitability. Denier is 1
If it is larger than 0 denier, there is a problem that the filter efficiency is reduced due to the shortage of the number of fibers constituting the fiber, which tends to be unsuitable for filter applications.

As is evident from Table 2, in Example 2, there was no generation of fluff, and there was no problem in terms of peelability, pleating property and the like. Example 3 Polyethylene terephthalate having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.66 and a melting point of 262 ° C. and an intrinsic viscosity of 0.68 and a melting point of 228
After melting the isophthalic acid copolymerized polyester at a temperature of 2 ° C. in a separate extruder, the denier of the filament is 2 deniers, and the ratio of the low melting point in the total fibers is 30%.
The sheath component was changed to 20%, 10%, and 5%, and the sheath component was made of a copolymerized polyester. Using a core-sheath type die, a core-sheath filament was spun by high-speed spinning at about 5000 m / min by air sucker. The spinning properties were all good and the basis weight was 200.
g / m 2 . Continued crimping area is 15%
Thermocompression bonding with an embossing roll at a temperature of 200 ° C., and pleating with a rotary pleating machine to produce a filter. As a result, there was no delamination of the obtained sheet and the result was good as a filter material. Was. Example 4 In the same manner as in Example 3, the ratio of the low melting point in all the fibers was 15%, and the denier of the filament was 1 denier.
The spinning was changed to denier, 5 denier and 10 denier. 1 denier increased single yarn breakage, and 10 denier increased yarn breakage due to insufficient cooling, but at a level that caused no problem in operation, and was continuously used as a sheet having a basis weight of 300 g / m 2 .
When the sheet after the thermocompression bonding by the embossing roll was pleated with a rotary pleating machine to form a filter, there was no delamination and the pleating workability was good. Comparative Example 2 A single component of polyethylene terephthalate having an intrinsic viscosity of 0.66 and a melting point of 262 ° C. was melted by an extruder, and then the discharge amount was adjusted so that the denier of the filament became 2 deniers. Then, the filament is spread and collected on a moving net conveyor, and subsequently hot-pressed with an embossing roll having a surface temperature of 250 ° C.
A nonwoven fabric with a basis weight of 260 g / m 2 was obtained.
