Description

本発明は、難燃性皮革様シートおよび難燃加工方法に関する。より詳細には、柔軟な風合い、優れた表面タッチおよび外観の難燃性皮革様シートに関する。   The present invention relates to a flame retardant leather-like sheet and a flame retardant processing method. More particularly, it relates to a flame retardant leather-like sheet having a soft texture, excellent surface touch and appearance.

皮革様シートは、従来から、インテリア、衣類、靴、鞄、手袋、乗物用座席の上張材などの様々な用途に利用されている。そのうちでも、鉄道車両用座席、自動車用座席、航空機用座席、船舶用座席などの乗物用座席、あるいはクッションシート、ソファー、椅子などのインテリアの上張材といった分野では、柔軟な風合や審美な表面外観を有することはもちろんのこと各種堅牢度や耐久性、耐磨耗性のみならず、優れた難燃性を兼ね備えた素材、特にスエード調皮革様シート素材が強く求められている。   Leather-like sheets are conventionally used in various applications such as interiors, clothing, shoes, bags, gloves, and vehicular seats. Among them, in the fields such as railcar seats, automobile seats, aircraft seats, ship seats such as ship seats, and interior coverings such as cushion seats, sofas, chairs, etc. In addition to having a surface appearance, there is a strong demand for materials that have not only various fastnesses, durability, and abrasion resistance, but also excellent flame retardancy, particularly suede-like leather-like sheet materials.

従来、繊維質シートを基材とする皮革様シートに難燃性能を付与する方法としては、基材を構成する繊維自体にリン化合物などを含有させる方法や、塩素や臭素を主体としたハロゲン化合物やアンチモン化合物からなる難燃剤微粒子をバインダーによって基材の裏面側へ付着させる方法が一般的であり、特に極細繊維不織布を基材とする皮革様シートの場合には、繊維自体が細くて弱いため繊維強度を低下させる前者の方法ではなく、後者の方法が主流であった。しかしながら、毒性や焼却時の有害物質発生などの危険性が指摘され、世界的に使用が大幅制限される傾向にある方法である。
スエード調皮革様シートの難燃加工技術として、主に車両用シートや飛行機用シートとしての開発技術であるが、難燃剤をバックコートして行う方法が開示されている(例えば、特許文献1、特許文献2)しかしながら、得られるシートは風合いが硬化し、高級感に劣る傾向がある。また伸びが固定されるため、複雑な形をしたシート形状への追随ができ難い傾向がある。
Conventionally, as a method for imparting flame retardancy to a leather-like sheet based on a fiber sheet, a method of containing a phosphorus compound or the like in the fiber constituting the base material, or a halogen compound mainly composed of chlorine or bromine In general, in the case of a leather-like sheet based on an ultrafine fiber nonwoven fabric, the fiber itself is thin and weak. The latter method was the mainstream, not the former method for reducing fiber strength. However, there are dangers such as toxicity and generation of harmful substances at the time of incineration, and this method tends to be greatly restricted worldwide.
As a flame retardant processing technique for a suede leather-like sheet, it is a development technique mainly as a vehicle seat or an airplane seat, but a method of performing a back coating with a flame retardant is disclosed (for example, Patent Document 1, Patent Document 2) However, the obtained sheet has a hardened texture and tends to be inferior in a high-class feeling. Further, since the elongation is fixed, there is a tendency that it is difficult to follow a sheet shape having a complicated shape.

また、難燃剤を染色後の仕上げ工程で含浸付与する方法やポリウレタンに難燃剤を混合させる方法が開示されている(例えば、特許文献3参照。)しかしながら、これらの方法では難燃性能を発揮させるために難燃剤を多量に付着させる必要があり、表面のベタツキ感、風合いが低下する場合がある。さらに後者ではポリウレタン樹脂としての耐光性が低下傾向にあり、特に厳しい耐光性能が要求される車両用シートでは十分とはいえない。一般的にはポリウレタンに難燃剤などの添加剤を付与する方法では、難燃性能と樹脂性能の両立は困難な場合が多い。   In addition, a method of impregnating and imparting a flame retardant in a finishing step after dyeing and a method of mixing a flame retardant with polyurethane are disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 3). However, these methods exhibit flame retardancy. Therefore, it is necessary to attach a large amount of flame retardant, and the stickiness and texture of the surface may be lowered. Furthermore, in the latter, the light resistance as a polyurethane resin tends to decrease, and it cannot be said that a vehicle seat that requires particularly severe light resistance is sufficient. In general, in a method of adding an additive such as a flame retardant to polyurethane, it is often difficult to achieve both flame retardancy and resin performance.

また、リン系難燃剤を熱可塑性合成繊維に共重合させることにより、染色時の難燃剤の溶出や糸物性の劣化を克服した技術も開示されている(特許文献4参照。)しかしながら、コスト的な問題よりリン共重合繊維の割合に制約がかかり、高い難燃性とコストを両立し難いものであった。   In addition, a technology has been disclosed in which a phosphorus-based flame retardant is copolymerized with a thermoplastic synthetic fiber to overcome elution of the flame retardant during dyeing and deterioration of yarn physical properties (see Patent Document 4). Due to this problem, the proportion of the phosphorus copolymer fiber is restricted, and it is difficult to achieve both high flame retardancy and cost.

本発明の難燃性皮革様シートは、表面外観を損なうことがなく柔軟な風合いと優れた難燃性能を有する。   The flame-retardant leather-like sheet of the present invention has a flexible texture and excellent flame retardancy without impairing the surface appearance.

本発明に用いられる皮革様シート様シートを構成する繊維は、特に制約は無いが、皮革様シートとした場合に皮革様の風合いが得られる点、さらにスエード調皮革様シートとした場合に優れた触感および細かなライティング効果が得られる点から、0.5dtex以下の極細繊維であることが好ましい。その際、極細繊維は単成分を用いた直接紡糸から得られるもの、あるいは、少なくとも2種類のポリマーからなる極細繊維発生型繊維から作られる。上記の極細繊維発生型繊維は、例えば、海成分が溶剤または分解することで島成分がフィブリル化する抽出型繊維あるいは機械的にまたは処理剤によって各ポリマーからなる極細繊維にフィブリル化する分割型繊維等があげられる。極細繊維発生型繊維は、必要に応じて延伸、熱処理、機械捲縮、カット等の処理工程を経て繊度1〜15dtexの短繊維、あるいは長繊維とする。極細繊維を構成するポリマーは、6−ナイロン、66−ナイロン、12−ナイロンなどの溶融紡糸可能なポリアミド類、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリトリメチレンテレフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、またはそれらの共重合体の溶融紡糸可能なポリエステル類から選ばれる少なくとも1種類のポリマーが用いられる。また、抽出型繊維で抽出または分解除去される成分は、極細繊維成分と溶剤または分解剤に対する溶解性または分解性を異にし、極細繊維成分との相溶性の小さいポリマーであり、かつ紡糸条件下で極細繊維成分より溶融粘度が小さいかあるいは表面張力が小さいポリマーである必要がある。そして例えば、ポリエチレン、ポリスチレンまたはポリビニルアルコール等が用いられる。本発明においては環境汚染、溶解時の収縮特性等総合的に考慮すれば熱水で溶解可能なポリビニルアルコールを用いることがより好ましい。さらに、上記極細繊維は、本発明の効果を損なわない限りにおいてカーボンブラック等に代表される顔料で着色あるいは公知の繊維添加剤を添加することは可能である。   The fibers constituting the leather-like sheet-like sheet used in the present invention are not particularly limited, but the leather-like texture can be obtained when the leather-like sheet is used, and further excellent when the suede-like leather-like sheet is used. From the viewpoint of obtaining a tactile sensation and a fine writing effect, an ultrafine fiber of 0.5 dtex or less is preferable. At that time, the ultrafine fibers are obtained from direct spinning using a single component, or made from ultrafine fiber generating fibers composed of at least two kinds of polymers. The above-mentioned ultrafine fiber generating fiber is, for example, an extractable fiber in which the island component is fibrillated by the solvent or decomposition of the sea component, or a split fiber that is fibrillated into the ultrafine fiber made of each polymer mechanically or by a treatment agent. Etc. The ultrafine fiber-generating fiber is made into a short fiber or a long fiber having a fineness of 1 to 15 dtex through processing steps such as drawing, heat treatment, mechanical crimping, and cutting as necessary. Polymers constituting ultrafine fibers can be melt-spun of melt-spinnable polyamides such as 6-nylon, 66-nylon, 12-nylon, polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, or copolymers thereof. At least one polymer selected from various polyesters is used. In addition, the component extracted or decomposed / removed by the extractable fiber is a polymer having a different solubility or decomposability with respect to the ultrafine fiber component and the solvent or decomposing agent, and having a low compatibility with the ultrafine fiber component, and under the spinning conditions. Therefore, it is necessary that the polymer has a lower melt viscosity or a lower surface tension than the ultrafine fiber component. For example, polyethylene, polystyrene, polyvinyl alcohol, or the like is used. In the present invention, it is more preferable to use polyvinyl alcohol that can be dissolved in hot water in view of environmental pollution, shrinkage characteristics during dissolution, and the like. Furthermore, the above ultrafine fibers can be colored with pigments typified by carbon black or the like or added with known fiber additives as long as the effects of the present invention are not impaired.

次に得られた短繊維あるいは長繊維を繊維絡合不織布とする。上記の繊維が短繊維であればカードで解繊し、ウェッバーを通してウエブを形成し、また、長繊維であればスパンボンド法などにより紡糸と同時にウエブを形成する。得られたウエブは、所望の重さ、厚さに積層し、次いで、必要に応じてニードルパンチ、高速水流などの公知の方法により仮絡合処理が行われる。上記ウエブの目付は、目的とする皮革様シートの目付に応じて設定されるが、80〜2000g/mの範囲が好ましく、より好ましくは100〜1500g/mの範囲が好ましい。なお、カーシート用途の場合、皮革様シートの強度を維持するために上記不織布に織編物を挿入することも可能である。なおその際の織編物は、特に限定することは無く、公知のポリマーからなる繊維を選ぶことができる。また、ニードルパンチの際は、織編物との絡合性確保の点から、織編物と積層する前のウエブに対し、パンチ数20〜100P/cmの範囲のニードルパンチを施すことも可能である。なお、ここでいうパンチ数とは、ニードルパンチ工程を通してウエブの単位面積当たりに突き刺したフェルト針の累計本数であり、例えばフェルト針が10本/cmの密度で配置されたニードルボードをウエブへ50回突き刺せば、そのニードルパンチ工程でのパンチ数は500P/cmである。 Next, the obtained short fiber or long fiber is used as a fiber-entangled nonwoven fabric. If the above fibers are short fibers, they are defibrated with a card and a web is formed through a webber. If long fibers are formed, a web is formed simultaneously with spinning by a spunbond method or the like. The obtained web is laminated to a desired weight and thickness, and then provisionally entangled by a known method such as needle punching or high-speed water flow, if necessary. The basis weight of the web is set according to the basis weight of the intended leather-like sheet, but is preferably in the range of 80 to 2000 g / m 2 , more preferably in the range of 100 to 1500 g / m 2 . In the case of car seat use, it is also possible to insert a woven or knitted fabric into the nonwoven fabric in order to maintain the strength of the leather-like sheet. In addition, the woven or knitted fabric at that time is not particularly limited, and fibers made of a known polymer can be selected. In addition, in the case of needle punching, from the viewpoint of securing the entanglement with the woven or knitted fabric, it is also possible to perform needle punching in the range of 20 to 100 P / cm 2 on the web before being laminated with the woven or knitted fabric. is there. The number of punches referred to here is the cumulative number of felt needles pierced per unit area of the web through the needle punching process. For example, a needle board in which felt needles are arranged at a density of 10 / cm 2 is applied to the web. When piercing 50 times, the number of punches in the needle punching process is 500 P / cm 2 .

得られた繊維絡合不織布の絡合空間に高分子弾性体を付与することが皮革様の風合いおよび充実感と機械的物性の向上の点で好ましく用いられる。高分子弾性体としては、風合いや充実感の点でポリウレタンが好ましい。なお、その際は溶剤に溶解したポリウレタン溶液を含浸後、水凝固し乾燥する方法や溶剤を用いない水系エマルジョンとしてポリウレタンを含浸後、乾熱凝固乾燥する方法のいずれも採用することができる。また、繊維絡合不織布と高分子弾性体との質量比が50/50〜98/2となるように高分子弾性体を付与することが風合と機械物性を両立する点で好ましい。なお、繊維絡合不織布が極細繊維発生型繊維の場合は極細繊維化後の質量比として付与する。
更に繊維絡合不織布を構成する繊維が、極細繊維発生型繊維の場合には、公知の方法で高分子弾性体を付与する前あるいは後に極細可処理を行うことによって、皮革様シートを作製する。
Giving a polymer elastic body to the entangled space of the obtained fiber-entangled non-woven fabric is preferably used from the viewpoint of leather-like texture, fullness and mechanical properties. As the polymer elastic body, polyurethane is preferable in terms of texture and fullness. In this case, either a method of impregnating a polyurethane solution dissolved in a solvent and then water coagulating and drying, or a method of impregnating polyurethane as an aqueous emulsion without using a solvent and then drying and coagulating and drying can be employed. In addition, it is preferable to provide the polymer elastic body so that the mass ratio between the fiber-entangled nonwoven fabric and the polymer elastic body is 50/50 to 98/2 in terms of achieving both the texture and the mechanical properties. In addition, when a fiber entangled nonwoven fabric is an ultrafine fiber generation type fiber, it provides as mass ratio after ultrafine fiber formation.
Further, when the fiber constituting the fiber-entangled nonwoven fabric is an ultrafine fiber generating fiber, a leather-like sheet is produced by performing ultrafine treatment before or after applying the polymer elastic body by a known method.

上記方法で得られた皮革様シートでスエード調皮革様シートを作製する際には、スライス、バフィング等により所望の厚みに調整した後、表面をサンドペーパー等による公知の方法でバフィングすることにより上記繊維は起毛され、さらに染色することにより目的のスエード調皮革様シートとすることができる。また、銀面を有する銀付調皮革様シートを作成する際には、同様の方法で厚みを調整した後に、公知の方法により銀面層を形成することで得ることができる。   When producing a suede-like leather-like sheet with the leather-like sheet obtained by the above method, after adjusting to a desired thickness by slicing, buffing, etc., the surface is buffed by a known method such as sandpaper etc. The fibers are raised and dyed further to obtain the desired suede leather-like sheet. Moreover, when producing the grained leather-like sheet | seat which has a silver surface, after adjusting thickness by the same method, it can obtain by forming a silver surface layer by a well-known method.

本発明の難燃加工方法は、気泡を含有させた状態で難燃剤液を皮革様シート特にスエード調皮革様シートの裏面に塗布することが重要である。そして、難燃剤液中の難燃剤濃度を5〜60質量%とすることによって、気泡の発現性と皮革様シートに対する難燃性の付与と風合の両立の点で好ましい。難燃剤濃度が5%未満になると、本難燃加工方法では十分な難燃性能を示すに必要な難燃剤を塗布することが困難となり易く、皮革様シートの難燃性効果が十分にならない傾向がある。また60%よりも濃度が高くなると、塗布した難燃剤が皮革様シート内部に十分に浸透せず皮革様シート裏面付近に偏った状態で固化してしまい、皮革様シートの風合いが損なわれる。
また、環境に配慮することで、難燃剤液を難燃剤の水分散液または水溶液から構成することが好ましい。上記スエード調皮革様シートの裏面から泡状の難燃剤を浸透させるといった特殊な塗布方法を行うことによって始めて、スエード調皮革様シートの表層まで難燃剤が到達せず、表面の優れたタッチや風合いと難燃効果を維持することが可能となる。
In the flame-retardant processing method of the present invention, it is important to apply a flame retardant solution to the back surface of a leather-like sheet, particularly a suede-like leather-like sheet in a state of containing bubbles. And by making the flame retardant density | concentration in a flame retardant liquid into 5-60 mass%, it is preferable at the point of coexistence of the expression of a bubble, the provision of the flame retardance with respect to a leather-like sheet | seat, and a feeling. When the flame retardant concentration is less than 5%, it is difficult to apply the flame retardant necessary for exhibiting sufficient flame retardant performance with this flame retardant processing method, and the flame retardant effect of the leather-like sheet tends not to be sufficient. There is. On the other hand, if the concentration is higher than 60%, the applied flame retardant does not sufficiently penetrate into the leather-like sheet and solidifies in a state of being biased near the back of the leather-like sheet, and the texture of the leather-like sheet is impaired.
In consideration of the environment, the flame retardant liquid is preferably composed of an aqueous dispersion or an aqueous solution of the flame retardant. The flame retardant does not reach the surface layer of the suede leather-like sheet only by applying a special application method such as infiltrating the foam-like flame retardant from the back side of the suede leather-like sheet, and the surface has excellent touch and texture. It becomes possible to maintain the flame retardant effect.

本発明で使用する難燃剤としてはリン酸グアニジン系、リン酸カルバネート系、リン酸エステル系、リン酸エステルアミド系、ポリリン酸アンモニウム系など非ハロゲン系の難燃剤をあげることが出来る。そして、皮革様シートが難燃性を有するために必要な難燃剤の付着量は、難燃剤中のリン含有量にも左右されるため難燃剤の種類により異なるが、難燃剤の固形分濃度で10〜100g/mの範囲で付与することが難燃性と風合を両立する点で好ましい。
なお、難燃剤を塗布する際は、処理後の皮革様シートからの難燃剤の脱落を防ぐために、本発明の効果を損なわない限り、水系ウレタンエマルションを難燃剤のバインダーとして混合させることも可能である。
Examples of the flame retardant used in the present invention include non-halogen flame retardants such as guanidine phosphate, carbanate phosphate, phosphate ester, phosphate ester amide, and ammonium polyphosphate. And the amount of flame retardant adhesion necessary for the leather-like sheet to have flame retardancy depends on the phosphorus content in the flame retardant, so it depends on the type of flame retardant, but the solid content concentration of the flame retardant It is preferable to apply in the range of 10 to 100 g / m 2 in terms of achieving both flame retardancy and texture.
In addition, when applying the flame retardant, in order to prevent the flame retardant from falling off from the leather-like sheet after the treatment, an aqueous urethane emulsion can be mixed as a flame retardant binder as long as the effect of the present invention is not impaired. is there.

また、強制的に気泡を含有させた状態での難燃剤液の見掛け密度が0.1〜0.6g/cmとなる状態で例えば攪拌した後に塗布することが、難燃剤が裏面から浸透し表面に到達しないように調整しやすい点でより好ましい0.1g/cm以上とすることで、皮革様シートの体積あたりの難燃剤含有量を確保し、難燃性能を示すに必要な量の難燃剤を塗布することが可能となる。また0.6g/cm以下とすることで、気泡を含んだ状態を保持することが可能となる。なお、難燃剤の発泡方法としては機械発泡が挙げられるが、その際1〜2%の界面活性剤を発泡剤として加えることが好ましい。 In addition, the flame retardant permeates from the back surface, for example, after stirring in a state where the apparent density of the flame retardant liquid in the state of forcibly containing bubbles is 0.1 to 0.6 g / cm 3. By making it more preferable 0.1 g / cm 3 or more in terms of easy adjustment so as not to reach the surface, the amount of flame retardant per volume of the leather-like sheet is ensured, and the amount necessary to show flame retardant performance It becomes possible to apply a flame retardant. Moreover, it becomes possible to hold | maintain the state containing a bubble by setting it as 0.6 g / cm < 3 > or less. In addition, although a mechanical foaming is mentioned as a foaming method of a flame retardant, it is preferable to add 1 to 2% of surfactant as a foaming agent in that case.

難燃剤を皮革様シート裏面に塗布し、その付着量をコントロールする方法としては、皮革様シート上に気泡を有する難燃剤の水分散液または水溶液を吐出しそれをナイフにて付着量を管理する方法、または、皮革様シート裏面上に位置するメッシュロールの内部から外側へ吐出された気泡を有する難燃剤を、メッシュロールと皮革様シートの間のクリアランス調整あるいは印圧調整により付着量をコントロールしながら塗布する方法などを好ましく用いることができる。   As a method of applying the flame retardant to the back of the leather-like sheet and controlling the amount of adhesion, the aqueous dispersion or aqueous solution of the flame retardant with bubbles is discharged onto the leather-like sheet and the amount of adhesion is controlled with a knife. Control the amount of flame retardant with bubbles discharged from the inside or outside of the mesh roll located on the back side of the leather-like sheet by adjusting the clearance or printing pressure between the mesh roll and the leather-like sheet. A method of coating while applying can be preferably used.

難燃剤を塗布した後の皮革様シートの乾燥方法としては、テンター乾燥機など巾変化を制御しながらの乾燥が好ましい。   As a method for drying the leather-like sheet after applying the flame retardant, drying while controlling the width change such as a tenter dryer is preferable.

以下本発明の実施態様を実施例により説明するが、実施例における燃焼性の評価は社団法人自動車技術会制定がシート表皮用材料の試験方法(JASO M 403−88 )に記載する測定方法に従った。
また、難燃剤液の見掛け密度の測定方法は、発泡させた難燃剤液を500mlメスシリンダーに採取し、その体積と質量を測定することによって算出した。
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below by way of examples. The evaluation of flammability in the examples follows the measurement method described in the test method for sheet skin material (JASO M 403-88) established by the Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan. It was.
Moreover, the measuring method of the apparent density of a flame retardant liquid was computed by extract | collecting the foamed flame retardant liquid to a 500 ml graduated cylinder, and measuring the volume and mass.
