The concentration of dissolved substances of the tea concentrate to be impregnated into the non-woven fabric, or the concentration of dissolved tea and the concentrated liquid of tea, for example, is measured with a saccharimeter or the like, or the total solid content is measured to obtain the dissolved substance concentration. Accordingly, the amount contained by spraying with a sprayer or printing with a printing machine can be adjusted to adjust the amount of tea contained in the nonwoven fabric by application or the like, or the dissolved substance of tea and tea. The amount of the tea-dissolving substance impregnated into the nonwoven fabric or the amount of the tea and tea-dissolving substance can be appropriately changed so that the effect of suppressing the growth of bacteria can be exhibited, and the effect of extinguishing and deodorizing can be exhibited. .
[0019]
Here, one or more dried tea (dissolved substance) contained in the nonwoven fabric after being dried is dissolved in one or more concentrated tea liquids. By the concentration treatment, the dissolved substance concentration of tea can be increased to, for example, about 6% in terms of Brix concentration, but is diluted to, for example, Brix concentration of 1% in order to smoothly perform operations such as spraying. In the present invention, in order to impregnate a nonwoven fabric with a large amount of dissolved substance, when the dissolved substance concentration is the same, the nonwoven fabric is made of tea in the nonwoven fabric by the same or different method over a plurality of times or at a plurality of locations. A concentrated solution can be applied.
[0020]
Since dissolved substances present in tea leaves and tea husks are relatively easy to extract, they can be extracted with hot water in a relatively short time. However, the extraction time is 5 to 60 minutes in hot water at 95 ° C., and during this time, when boiling or boiling in hot water at 95 ° C. or higher, for example, 10 to 20 minutes, the dissolved substance is high. It can be extracted by concentration. Tea can be obtained by starting extraction with hot water at 95 ° C., which is not more than 10 times the weight of tea leaves and / or tea shells, and simmering until the liquid volume becomes 3/4. The tea extract produced in this way varies depending on, for example, the size and shape of the tea leaves and the extraction conditions, but the sugar content is 4 to 6 percent Brix.
[0021]
In the case of such a tea concentrate, a concentrated solution of dissolved material 1 wt% or more tea, as the standard case basis weight of the nonwoven fabric 18 g / m ^2, the nonwoven fabric 1 m ² per 10 ml or more, preferably It can be produced by impregnating a nonwoven fabric with an amount of 30 ml or more, more preferably 50 ml or more, by spraying or the like and then drying. For example, the nonwoven fabric can be produced by spraying 10 to 20 ml, preferably 20 to 30 ml, per 1 m ^{2 of} the nonwoven fabric.
[0022]
The tea leaf extract or tea husk extract obtained by extracting tea leaves and / or tea husks by boiling with hot water is subjected to a centrifuge to remove the extraction residue. The supernatant liquid from which the tea husk has been removed is evaporated by heating, for example, until the liquid volume becomes 3/4 or less, and for example, the concentration of tea is measured by a refractometer and concentrated to about 6% Brix. For example, the concentrated green tea concentrate is diluted to a dissolved substance concentration that is easy to spray, such as Brix 2%, and adjusted for spraying.
[0023]
