2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a heat insulating material for houses such as floors, walls, roofs, etc., a phenol resin or the like is applied to glass wool by a spray method, an impregnation method, etc., and then a plastic film, an aluminum foil or the like is laminated and cured. That is used. However, this glass wool insulation material tends to cause environmental pollution in the process of applying the phenolic resin, and when the insulation material is applied, the skin may be irritated or irritated when the worker touches the skin. There is a problem that skin disorders such as symptoms occur. In addition, when the phenol resin is hydrolyzed due to moisture and heat for a long time after the treatment, the phenol resin has a large problem that the bulk becomes small and shifts downward, or a gap is formed between the outer wall and the heat insulating material, thereby significantly reducing the heat insulating effect. . To solve such problems,
Various methods using urethane foam, foamed styrene, or the like instead of glass wool have been studied. These foams
It is lightweight and excellent in heat insulation and sound insulation, but has drawbacks such as poor mechanical strength such as bending strength and impact strength.

This is because air is held in the hollow portion of the fiber in the hollow structure fiber. Normally, when a fiber aggregate is used as a heat insulating material, heat is transferred by air convection generated in the fiber aggregate, but this can be suppressed by using a fiber having a hollow structure.

Next, a method for manufacturing the heat insulating material of the present invention will be described. First, the above-mentioned matrix fiber and low-melting fiber are mixed at an arbitrary mixing ratio. Do cotton mixing, carding,
The webs are stacked in a cross layer and heat-treated. The heat treatment temperature is higher than the temperature at which the low melting point component in the low melting point fiber softens or melts, and lower than the temperature at which the other fiber components melt. Thereby, (a part of) the low melting point fiber is melted, and the fiber aggregate is substantially bonded at a part of the contact portion between the constituent fibers.

Further, it is preferable that the surface portion of at least one surface of the fiber assembly is formed into a film by a method described later. In the present invention, the outermost exposed web in the fiber assembly is referred to as “laminated surface”, and the other four surfaces are referred to as “side surfaces”. Therefore, in the present invention, it is only necessary that at least one of the six laminated surfaces and the four side surfaces has a surface portion formed into a film.

For forming a film, there are a method of strengthening the bonding between the fibers by a thermal treatment and a method of strengthening the entanglement of the fibers by a mechanical treatment. Further, by performing the thermal treatment and the mechanical treatment at the same time, it becomes possible to control the ventilation rate more precisely.

By forming a thin film on one side of the nonwoven fabric heat insulating material, when heat enters, the heat transfer is blocked by the film portion corresponding to the skin. In addition, by forming the surface portion into a film, the non-woven fabric having a low density that is difficult to be self-supporting increases in hardness and becomes self-supporting, and also has improved mechanical strength such as bending strength and impact strength. Further, the cured film has the effect of reducing entanglement of fibers and facilitating tacking during construction.

Further, by forming at least one surface of the fiber assembly into a film, the sound absorbing performance against the sound incident from the film portion is remarkably improved. This is because an effect called “membrane sound absorption” in which the film resonates in a specific frequency region is newly generated, in addition to the sound absorbing effect of the normal fiber assembly portion.

In the case of thermal treatment, for example, in a step after carding is performed to form a nonwoven fabric, indirect heating treatment by radiant heat of an infrared heater is performed from both upper and lower surfaces. At this time, by making the heating temperature of one side higher than that of the other side, the surface of the lamination surface can be made into a film.

In either case of indirect heating with an infrared heater or the like or contact heating with a hot plate or the like, the temperature at which the surface is heated and melted is preferably 110 to 220 ° C. When it is within this range, the surface is sufficient to form a film, and the influence on the matrix fiber is small. Therefore, a change in physical properties caused by deterioration of the polymer of the matrix fiber or the like is suppressed, which is preferable.

Further, when the nonwoven fabric is cut in the width direction, it is possible to form not only the surface of the lamination surface but also the surface of the side surface by bringing a hot plate into contact with the cut surface. Usually, the cut side surface of the nonwoven fabric is often used as it is, but by forming a film-like layer also on the side surface, fluff is suppressed and the product becomes attractive. Further, it is preferable because rainwater does not easily enter from the side.

In the case of forming a film by a thermal treatment such as an infrared heater, a hot plate or a heat roller as described above, the thickness of the film layer is less than 1 mm. In this case, it is preferable that the thickness is thin because the tacking at the time of construction becomes easier.
