Description

本発明は、植物を栽培する人工土壌として用いられるものであって、特に、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなり、建造物や構造物の垂直面あるいは垂直に近い傾斜面からなる壁面に設置可能な、保水性に優れた壁面緑化用人工土壌シートに関する。   The present invention is used as artificial soil for cultivating plants, and is particularly composed of a laminated body mainly composed of glass fiber, and installed on a wall surface composed of a vertical surface of a building or a structure or an inclined surface close to vertical. The present invention relates to an artificial soil sheet for wall greening that has excellent water retention.

従来から、自然土壌の代わりに、取り扱いが容易であり、植栽する植物の育成に適した人工土壌の開発が行われている。近年においては、都市のヒートアイランド化現象の影響から、建物の屋上や外壁等を緑化する技術が着目されており、建物の緑化にあたっては、建物の屋上等に人工土壌を設置し、該人工土壌に耐乾性、耐寒性に優れたセダム類等の植物を栽培する方法が採られている。このような建物緑化に用いる人工土壌としては、建物の積載荷重の基準値を満たすものでなければならず、また、人工土壌を敷設する作業性の観点からも、軽量化が望まれている。
軽量化を目的とした人工土壌としては、新聞古紙等を解離したセルロース繊維を吸水性樹脂で結合してシート状としたものや、前記セルロース繊維に、ガラス繊維やロックウール繊維等の無機繊維を加えて、同じく吸水性樹脂で結合してシート状としたものが提案されている。
Conventionally, instead of natural soil, artificial soil that is easy to handle and suitable for growing plants to be planted has been developed. In recent years, due to the effects of urban heat islands, the technology of greening the rooftops and outer walls of buildings has been attracting attention. When planting trees, artificial soils are installed on the rooftops of buildings and the like. A method of cultivating plants such as sedum having excellent dry resistance and cold resistance has been adopted. Artificial soil used for such greening of buildings must satisfy the standard value of the building load, and weight reduction is also desired from the viewpoint of workability for laying artificial soil.
As artificial soil for the purpose of weight reduction, cellulose fibers that have been dissociated from used newspapers are combined with a water-absorbent resin into a sheet form, and inorganic fibers such as glass fibers and rock wool fibers are added to the cellulose fibers. In addition, a sheet that has been combined with a water-absorbing resin to form a sheet has been proposed.

更に、建物の外壁空間に着目し、外壁面の緑化を目的とする壁面緑化技術の開発も進められている。壁面緑化を目的とする人工土壌は、屋上緑化を目的とする人工土壌に要求される軽量化に加えて、崩落しにくく、垂直面である壁面に設置された人工土壌全体に均一な保水力を有する性能が要求される。
繊維層からなるシートを壁面緑化用の人工土壌として用いる場合、前記繊維層を構成する繊維として、粗繊維を用いた場合は、保水性が良好でなく、垂直面となる壁面で長期に亘り植物を育成することができない問題がある。逆に、前記繊維層を構成する繊維として、細繊維を用いた場合は、吸水性つまり水分の移動・拡散性が悪くなる問題がある。
壁面緑化を考慮した人工土壌としては、例えば、熱接着性複合繊維からなる捲縮繊維を用いて細繊度繊維ウェブ層(2〜120dtex)と粗繊度繊維ウェブ層(100〜5000dtex)が形成された繊維成形体であって、一方の側から他方の側に向けて密度勾配が形成され、植生面となる前記粗繊度繊維ウェブ層にヤシガラ圧縮顆粒と吸水性樹脂を培土として保持させた緑化構造物が開示されている(例えば、特許文献1)。
特開2002−125453号公報
Furthermore, focusing on the outer wall space of buildings, wall greening technology for the purpose of greening the outer wall is being developed. Artificial soil for the purpose of wall greening is not easy to collapse in addition to the weight reduction required for artificial soil for rooftop greening, and it has a uniform water holding capacity throughout the artificial soil installed on the vertical wall. The required performance is required.
When a sheet composed of a fiber layer is used as artificial soil for wall greening, when the coarse fiber is used as the fiber constituting the fiber layer, the water retention is not good, and the plant wall is formed on the vertical wall surface for a long period of time. There is a problem that can not be nurtured. On the contrary, when fine fibers are used as the fibers constituting the fiber layer, there is a problem that water absorption, that is, moisture transfer / diffusion is deteriorated.
As artificial soil in consideration of wall greening, for example, a fine fiber web layer (2-120 dtex) and a coarse fiber web layer (100-5000 dtex) were formed using crimped fibers made of heat-adhesive conjugate fibers. A green molded structure in which a density gradient is formed from one side to the other side, and the coarse fiber fiber layer serving as a vegetation surface retains coconut shell compressed granules and a water-absorbing resin as a soil. Is disclosed (for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2002-125453 A

しかしながら、前記特許文献1に開示されている緑化構造物は、ポリオレフィン樹脂若しくはポリエステル樹脂の捲縮繊維を用いており、前記樹脂が撥水性であるため、保水層として細繊度繊維ウェブ層を設けた場合であっても、必要な保水量を保持することは困難である。このため、自然降雨等から植物育成に必要な保水量を保持するためには、植生面となる粗繊度繊維ウェブ層に吸水性樹脂を保持させて保水性を確保せざるを得ず、この吸水性樹脂が吸水時に膨潤して繊維間結合を破断または弛緩させるため、崩落しやすく、耐候性や耐久性に欠けると推測された。
また、平地を潅水する場合のように、スプリンクラー等によって壁面全体を略同時に潅水することは現実的ではなく、通常、壁面に沿って配設されたチューブ等によって、人工土壌の側面から一定時間毎に潅水される。このため、壁面緑化用の人工土壌は、人工土壌の側面から供給された水を壁面に沿って垂直方向に急速に展開して人工土壌全体に均一に水を行き渡らせる性能と、シート面全体に均一な優れた保水性を有することが要求される。
そこで、本発明は、建物の外壁等の壁面緑化を実現可能とするため、耐候性、耐久性を備えるとともに、シート面全体に素早く均一に水を行き渡せることができ、シート全体で均一な優れた保水性を有する壁面緑化用人工土壌シートを提供することを目的とする。
However, the greening structure disclosed in Patent Document 1 uses crimped fibers of polyolefin resin or polyester resin, and the resin is water-repellent, so a fine fiber web layer is provided as a water retention layer. Even in this case, it is difficult to maintain the necessary water retention amount. For this reason, in order to maintain the amount of water retention necessary for plant growth from natural rainfall, etc., it is necessary to ensure the water retention by retaining the water absorbent resin in the coarse fiber fiber layer that becomes the vegetation surface. It was assumed that the water-soluble resin swells upon water absorption and breaks or relaxes the bond between fibers, so that it easily collapses and lacks weather resistance and durability.
In addition, it is not practical to irrigate the entire wall surface with a sprinkler or the like as in the case of irrigating the flat ground. Usually, the tube is disposed along the wall surface at regular intervals from the side of the artificial soil. To be irrigated. For this reason, artificial soil for wall greening has the ability to rapidly spread water supplied from the side of the artificial soil in the vertical direction along the wall surface and distribute the water uniformly throughout the artificial soil, and to the entire sheet surface. It is required to have uniform and excellent water retention.
Therefore, the present invention makes it possible to realize greening of the outer wall of the building, etc., so that it has weather resistance and durability, and water can be quickly and uniformly distributed over the entire seat surface. Another object of the present invention is to provide an artificial soil sheet for wall greening that has water retention.

本発明者等は、鋭意検討の結果、壁面緑化用の人工土壌シートとして繊維層からなるシートを用いる場合において、前記繊維層として、保水性が良好な細繊維層と、吸水性つまり水分の移動・拡散性が良好な粗繊維層を組み合わせることにより、壁面においても保水性と吸水性が良好となる繊維層ができ、しかも、前記繊維層を構成する繊維としてガラス繊維を使用することにより、ガラス繊維の持つ親水性とともに、前記細繊維層の繊維として0.2〜1μmといった極細繊維が使用でき優れた保水力の保水層が形成できることを知見した。
本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、かかる知見に基づき、請求項1に記載の通り、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなる壁面緑化用人工土壌シートであって、前記積層体は、少なくとも、平均繊維径が0.2〜2μmのガラス繊維を主体とし垂直方向の保水性を高める細繊維層と、平均繊維径が前記細繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の1.2倍以上かつ7μm以下のガラス繊維を主体とし垂直方向の吸水性つまり水の移動・拡散性を高める粗繊維層が、厚さ方向に偏在してなり、垂直吸液時間が8分/10cm以下で、垂直吸液高さ(24時間後)が60cm以上であることを特徴とする。
また、請求項2記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、請求項1記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートにおいて、前記粗繊維層の厚み合計が、前記細繊維層の厚み合計よりも厚いことを特徴とする。
また、請求項3記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、請求項1又は2記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートにおいて、前記積層体は、前記細繊維層と前記粗繊維層とが連続して交互に偏在してなることを特徴とする。
また、請求項4記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、請求項1乃至3の何れか1項に記載の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートにおいて、前記積層体を形成する繊維層は、湿式抄造によりシート形成されたものであることを特徴とする。
The present inventors have conducted extensive studies results, in the case of using a sheet made of a fiber layer as an artificial soil sheets for wall greening, as the fibrous layer, and the water retention good fine fiber layer, the absorbent clogging water By combining a coarse fiber layer with good mobility and diffusivity, a fiber layer with good water retention and water absorption can be formed even on the wall surface, and by using glass fiber as the fiber constituting the fiber layer, It has been found that, together with the hydrophilicity of glass fibers, ultrafine fibers of 0.2 to 1 μm can be used as the fibers of the fine fiber layer, and a water retention layer with excellent water retention capability can be formed.
Based on such knowledge, the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening of the present invention is an artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening comprising a laminate mainly composed of glass fibers, and the laminate is at least A fine fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having an average fiber diameter of 0.2 to 2 μm and enhancing water retention in the vertical direction; and an average fiber diameter of 1.2 times or more and 7 μm or less of the glass fibers constituting the fine fiber layer A coarse fiber layer mainly composed of glass fiber that enhances water absorption in the vertical direction, that is, water movement / diffusion, is unevenly distributed in the thickness direction, and the vertical liquid absorption time is 8 minutes / 10 cm or less. The length (after 24 hours) is 60 cm or more .
The artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening according to claim 2 is characterized in that, in the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening according to claim 1 , the total thickness of the coarse fiber layer is thicker than the total thickness of the fine fiber layer. And
Moreover, the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening according to claim 3 is the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the laminate has the fine fiber layer and the coarse fiber layer alternately alternately. It is characterized by being unevenly distributed .
The sheet wall greening artificial soil sheet according to claim 4, wherein, in the green wall artificial soil sheet according to any one of claims 1 to 3, the fiber layer forming the laminate by a wet paper making It is formed.

本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなり、前記積層体として、少なくとも、平均繊維径の小さいガラス繊維を主体とした細繊維層と、平均繊維径の大きいガラス繊維を主体とした粗繊維層が、厚さ方向に偏在してなる積層体を用いたものである。
本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、例えば、シート側面からのみ潅水がされた場合であっても、二層以上の積層体のうち、先ず、平均繊維径が大きい粗繊維層が速やかに吸水して粗繊維層全体に水を行き渡らせ、一方、該粗繊維層と一体化されている平均繊維径の小さい細繊維層が前記粗繊維層が吸水した水を毛管現象により横取りして吸水するため、シート面全体に素早く水が行き渡り、シート全体に均一に保水される。このため、前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、地面に対して垂直あるいは略垂直に敷設され、敷設面全体に均一に潅水することが難しい壁面緑化用の人工土壌として好適である。
また、本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなるため、密度が小さく軽量であり、取り扱い性に優れ、壁面に敷設する場合に作業性がよく、建物の積載荷重の基準値を超える危険性も少ないという利点を有する。
更に、前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなり、前記積層体として、少なくとも、平均繊維径の小さいガラス繊維を主体とした細繊維層と、平均繊維径の大きいガラス繊維を主体とした粗繊維層が、厚さ方向に偏在してなる積層体を用いたため、保水性を考慮して細繊維層のみから積層体を構成した場合と比較して、湿式抄造により前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートを形成した場合に脱水時間、乾燥時間等が短縮できるため生産性が向上するとともに、また、高価な細繊維と安価な粗繊維を併用できるため材料コストの低減が図れる。
また、前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、ガラス繊維を構成主体としているため、破棄に際して有害物質を排出するおそれが少なく、構成主体が不燃性であるため、建物壁面に敷設する際に有機物等を使用した従来の人工土壌と比較して万一燃焼した場合に有毒ガス等が発生せず、壁面緑化用の人工土壌として適している。
前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートにおいて、前記細繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径が0.2〜2μmである場合は、粗繊維層の水を横取りしやすいため細繊維層全体に均一に水を行き渡らせることができ、また、優れた保水性が得られる。
更に、前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートを構成する二層以上の積層体のうち、前記粗繊維層が前記細繊維層よりも厚い場合は、水の拡散速度がより速くなり、植栽した植物に素早く水や栄養分を供給することができるとともに、豪雨時には、粗繊維層から素早く排水することができ、植栽した植物の根腐れ等が起こりにくくなるという利点を有する。
The artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening of the present invention comprises a laminate mainly composed of glass fibers, and as the laminate, at least a fine fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a small average fiber diameter and a large average fiber diameter. A laminate in which coarse fiber layers mainly composed of glass fibers are unevenly distributed in the thickness direction is used.
The artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening of the present invention, for example, is a case where water is irrigated only from the side surface of the sheet, and among the laminates of two or more layers, first, a coarse fiber layer having a large average fiber diameter is quickly absorbed. The fine fiber layer integrated with the coarse fiber layer has a small average fiber diameter and absorbs the water absorbed by the coarse fiber layer by capillary action. Therefore, water quickly spreads over the entire sheet surface, and water is uniformly retained throughout the sheet. For this reason, the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening is suitable as artificial soil for wall greening which is laid vertically or substantially perpendicular to the ground and difficult to uniformly irrigate the entire laying surface.
In addition, the artificial soil sheet for wall greening of the present invention is composed of a laminated body mainly composed of glass fibers, and thus has a small density and light weight, is easy to handle, and has good workability when laid on a wall surface. There is an advantage that there is little risk of exceeding the reference value of the load capacity.
Furthermore, the artificial soil sheet for wall greening is composed of a laminate mainly composed of glass fibers, and as the laminate, at least a fine fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a small average fiber diameter and a large average fiber diameter. Because the coarse fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers used a laminated body that is unevenly distributed in the thickness direction, compared to the case where the laminated body is composed of only the fine fiber layer in consideration of water retention, by wet papermaking When the artificial soil sheet for wall greening is formed, the dehydration time, drying time, etc. can be shortened, so that productivity is improved, and the cost of material can be reduced because expensive fine fibers and cheap coarse fibers can be used in combination. .
Moreover, since the artificial soil sheet for wall greening is composed mainly of glass fiber, there is little risk of discharging harmful substances when discarded, and the constituent is nonflammable. In the unlikely event that it burns compared to the conventional artificial soil used, no toxic gas or the like is generated, and it is suitable as artificial soil for wall greening.
In the artificial soil sheet for wall greening, when the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers constituting the fine fiber layer is 0.2 to 2 μm, it is easy to intercept the water of the coarse fiber layer, so that the entire fine fiber layer is uniform. Water can be spread and excellent water retention is obtained.
Furthermore, when the coarse fiber layer is thicker than the fine fiber layer among the two or more layers constituting the artificial soil sheet for wall greening, the water diffusion rate becomes faster and the planted plant In addition to being able to supply water and nutrients quickly, it is possible to drain quickly from the coarse fiber layer during heavy rain, and it has the advantage that root rot of the planted plant is less likely to occur.

本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、親水性のガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなり、前記積層体として、少なくとも、平均繊維径の小さいガラス繊維を主体とした細繊維層と、平均繊維径の大きいガラス繊維を主体とした粗繊維層が、厚さ方向に偏在してなる積層体を用いたものである。
これにより、前記細繊維層により保水性を良好とし、前記粗繊維層により吸水性つまり水分の移動・拡散性を良好とし、保水性と吸水性がともに良好な人工土壌シートとすることができる。
前記積層体は、ガラス繊維を主体としているため、前記ガラス繊維の交絡により繊維間に間隙が形成され、水分を吸収しやすく、高い保水性を有する。
前記ガラス繊維としては、例えば、耐酸性のCガラスを溶融、紡糸後、バーナの火炎でエネルギを与え吹き飛ばして得られるガラス短繊維や、溶融後、長繊維として紡糸されたガラス繊維を用いることができる。
前記親水性のガラス繊維としては、Eガラス、Aガラス、シリカガラスなどが使用できる。
The artificial soil sheet for wall greening of the present invention comprises a laminate mainly composed of hydrophilic glass fibers, and as the laminate, at least a fine fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a small average fiber diameter, and an average fiber A laminated body in which coarse fiber layers mainly composed of glass fibers having a large diameter are unevenly distributed in the thickness direction is used.
Thereby, it is possible to obtain an artificial soil sheet having good water retention by the fine fiber layer and good water absorption, that is, moisture transfer / diffusion by the coarse fiber layer, and having both good water retention and water absorption.
Since the laminate is mainly composed of glass fibers, a gap is formed between the fibers by the entanglement of the glass fibers, it is easy to absorb moisture, and has high water retention.
As the glass fiber, for example, a short glass fiber obtained by melting and spinning acid-resistant C glass and applying energy with a burner flame and blowing it, or a glass fiber spun as a long fiber after melting is used. it can.
As the hydrophilic glass fiber, E glass, A glass, silica glass and the like can be used.

前記積層体のガラス繊維の構成比率を90質量%以上に高くした場合は、積層体の密度を低くして、軽量化することができるとともに、ガラス繊維の絡み合いが密となるため、前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートを建造物や構造物の屋外の壁面に設置した場合であっても、風雨によるガラス繊維の飛散や流出の虞がなく強度を保持することができ、更に、ガラス繊維の持つ高い耐紫外線性により高い耐候性も確保できる。   When the composition ratio of the glass fiber of the laminate is increased to 90% by mass or more, the density of the laminate can be reduced and the weight can be reduced, and the entanglement of the glass fibers becomes dense. Even when the artificial soil sheet is installed on the outdoor wall surface of a building or structure, the strength can be maintained without the risk of glass fiber scattering or spilling due to wind and rain. High weather resistance can be secured by UV resistance.

前記細繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径は0.2〜2μmであることが好ましい。前記細繊維層のガラス繊維の平均繊維径が0.2μm未満であると、積層体中の空隙が小さくなりすぎ、前記細繊維層中の水の移動・拡散性が悪くなるので好ましくない。また、垂直方向での高い保水力を維持するためには、前記細繊維層のガラス繊維の平均繊維径は、2μm以下であることが好ましく、1μm以下であればさらに好ましい。   It is preferable that the average fiber diameter of the glass fiber which comprises the said fine fiber layer is 0.2-2 micrometers. When the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers of the fine fiber layer is less than 0.2 μm, the voids in the laminate are too small, and the movement / diffusion of water in the fine fiber layer is deteriorated. Further, in order to maintain a high water holding capacity in the vertical direction, the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers of the fine fiber layer is preferably 2 μm or less, and more preferably 1 μm or less.

前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートにおいて、前記粗繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径は、前記細繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径の1.2倍以上、かつ、7μm以下であることが好ましい。前記粗繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径が前記細繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径の1.2倍未満であると、二層を組み合わせた各積層体を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径に差がないため、単一の平均繊維径のガラス繊維を主体とした単一層からなる積層体と差異がなく、潅水された水がシート全体に行き渡る速度や保水性が、単一層からなる積層体と変わらなくなり、好ましくない。また、前記粗繊維層を構成するガラス繊維の平均繊維径が7μmを超える場合は、ガラス繊維に柔軟性がなくなり、繊維の絡み合いが少なくなって、粗繊維層の強度を確保することができず、低密度の積層体を構成することができないため、好ましくない。   In the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening, the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers constituting the coarse fiber layer is 1.2 times or more and 7 μm or less of the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers constituting the fine fiber layer. It is preferable. When the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers constituting the coarse fiber layer is less than 1.2 times the average fiber diameter of the glass fibers constituting the fine fiber layer, the glass fibers constituting each laminate in which two layers are combined There is no difference in the average fiber diameter, so there is no difference from a laminate composed of a single layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a single average fiber diameter. This is not preferable because it is not different from a laminate composed of one layer. Moreover, when the average fiber diameter of the glass fiber which comprises the said coarse fiber layer exceeds 7 micrometers, a glass fiber loses a softness | flexibility, a fiber entanglement decreases and the intensity | strength of a coarse fiber layer cannot be ensured. This is not preferable because a low-density laminate cannot be formed.

前記粗繊維層が前記細繊維層よりも厚い場合は、水の拡散速度がより速くなり、垂直方向への水の展開速度が速くなり、シート面に植栽した植物に素早く水や養分を供給することができるとともに、豪雨時には、粗繊維層から素早く排水することができるため好ましい。
前記粗繊維層を構成するガラス繊維は、平均繊維径が大きいため、ガラス繊維の絡み合いだけでは人工土壌としての強度が不足することが予測される。このため、強度補強材として、有機バインダ、無機バインダ、有機繊維、無機繊維、マイクロカプセル等を添加して積層体を構成してもよい。また、前記粗繊維層の高い吸水性をできるだけ損なわせずに、強度補強するためには、吸水性を有する無機粉体、有機粉体等を任意に添加、吸着させて積層体を構成してもよい。
When the coarse fiber layer is thicker than the fine fiber layer, the water diffusion rate is faster, the water deployment rate in the vertical direction is faster, and water and nutrients are quickly supplied to the plant planted on the sheet surface In addition, it is possible to drain water from the coarse fiber layer quickly during heavy rain.
Since the glass fiber constituting the coarse fiber layer has a large average fiber diameter, it is predicted that the strength as artificial soil is insufficient only by the entanglement of the glass fiber. For this reason, an organic binder, an inorganic binder, an organic fiber, an inorganic fiber, a microcapsule, etc. may be added as a strength reinforcing material to constitute a laminate. Further, in order to reinforce the strength without damaging the high water absorption of the coarse fiber layer as much as possible, an inorganic powder or organic powder having water absorption is arbitrarily added and adsorbed to form a laminate. Also good.

(2) As the second raw material, for example, 95% by mass of glass fiber having an average fiber diameter of 2 to 4 μm is mixed with 5% by mass of acrylic synthetic fiber for reinforcement, and dispersed uniformly in water by a separator such as a mixer or a pulper. After mixing, transport to second storage tank and store.
(3) Using the two types of raw materials stored in the first and second storage tanks as a papermaking type, using a circular net paper machine, a long net paper machine, or a slanting paper machine capable of two-layer papermaking, After the raw material is made into a sheet form as a first layer (fine fiber layer), the second raw material is made into a sheet form as a second layer (coarse fiber layer) on the first layer and superposed on it. The laminated body in a state of combining two layers in a paper state is passed through a pressure roll to be integrated.
(4) Then, through a drying process for drying moisture, a fine fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a small average fiber diameter and a coarse fiber layer mainly composed of glass fibers having a large average fiber diameter are unevenly distributed in the thickness direction. An artificial soil sheet for wall greening is obtained.
If strong peel strength is required, after making the first layer into a sheet, for example, an acrylic emulsion binder is applied to the first layer of the sheet, and the second layer is formed into a sheet from above. It is good to dry after making paper, superimposing, passing through a pressure roll and integrating.
Moreover, not only the above-mentioned manufacturing method but also after making the laminate constituting the first layer and the laminate constituting the second layer separately, the two layers or a plurality of layers are integrated using an adhesive or the like offline. May be used.
Further, after obtaining a laminated body in which two layers are integrated by the paper making method, a plurality of laminated bodies may be further laminated and bonded with an adhesive or the like to form a laminated body of three layers or four layers or more.
In addition, for example, after obtaining a laminated body in which two layers are integrated by any one of the methods described above, the laminated body is bent, and the contact surfaces are bonded and bonded together with an adhesive or the like to form a three-layer laminated body. Also good.
Thus, since the thickness of the artificial soil sheet for wall greening increases, the laminated body which consists of a multilayer is suitable when planting a plant with deep roots.

このように製造した壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、耐寒性があり、水やり等の回数が少なくて済み、壁面に沿って繁茂する性質のヘデラ類(ツタ)等を植生させるとよい。尚、前記ヘデラ類(ツタ)等に限らず、壁面緑化に適している植物であればよい。前記植物は、粗繊維層よりも保水力の高い細繊維層に植物を植栽した方が、水や養分を連続して植物に供給することができるため好ましい。このように、植物を植生させた、若しくは、植物植生前の前記壁面緑化用人工土壌シートを枠内等に収容してユニット化し、このユニットを建造物あるいは構造物の壁面に敷設することにより、環境条件の厳しい壁面緑化を実現することができる。   The artificial soil sheet for wall greening manufactured in this way is cold-resistant, requires less watering, and vegetation such as hedera (ivy) and the like that grows along the wall. It should be noted that the plant is not limited to the above-mentioned hedera (ivy) or the like, but may be any plant that is suitable for wall greening. The plant is preferably planted in a fine fiber layer having a higher water retention capacity than the coarse fiber layer because water and nutrients can be continuously supplied to the plant. In this way, by planting plants or accommodating the artificial soil sheet for wall greening before plant vegetation in a frame or the like and unitizing it, laying this unit on the wall of a building or structure, Wall greening with severe environmental conditions can be realized.

表1から、以下のようなことが分かった。
(1)実施例1〜3の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートの垂直吸液時間は、粗繊維層と細繊維層の平均繊維径にほとんど差がない比較例1の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートと比べて、約33〜58%速くなり、潅水すると粗繊維層が速やかに吸水することが確認できた。一方、25dtexの芯鞘繊維と150dtexの芯鞘繊維からなる二層構造の従来例の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートでは、7cmの高さまでしか吸液できず垂直吸液時間は測定できなかった。
(2)実施例1〜3の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートの垂直高さ別保液量は、前記従来例のシートと比べて、7倍以上あり、保水性が非常に高いことが確認できた。また、実施例1〜3の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、比較例1の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートと比べると、潅水した位置から離れている部分での保水性が若干劣っていた。
(3)実施例1〜3の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、垂直高さ別保液量が高いため、保水できる範囲が大きく、60〜100cm角毎の大きな単位でユニット化することができることが確認できた。このため、壁面緑化を行う外壁等の施工面全体に敷設する総ユニット数を大幅に減らすことができ、施工時間及び施工費用を大幅に低減することが可能である。これに対し、従来例の緑化用人工土壌シートは、垂直高さ別保液量が低く、7cm迄しか上昇しないため、10cm角程度毎に細かく区切ってユニット化しなければならず、本発明の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートと比較して、施工作業に時間がかかり、施工費用が増大すると推測された。
(4)実施例1〜3の壁面緑化用人工土壌シートは、ガラス繊維を主体とした積層体からなるため、耐熱性が高く、300℃でもほとんど変形せず、灼熱減量も5質量%と小さい。このため、夏場の直射日光を強く受ける厳しい環境下に敷設した場合でもシート形状を維持でき、保水性が高いため、環境条件の厳しい屋上付近の高い部分に設置する壁面緑化用人工土壌シートとして優れていることが確認できた。これに対し、従来例の緑化用人工土壌シートは、110℃で既に変形し、210℃以上では着火、焼却されてしまうため、環境条件の厳しい場所には適さないことが分かった。
Table 1 shows the following.
(1) The vertical liquid absorption time of the artificial soil sheet for wall greening in Examples 1 to 3 is compared with the artificial soil sheet for wall greening in Comparative Example 1 in which there is almost no difference in the average fiber diameter between the coarse fiber layer and the fine fiber layer. Thus, it was confirmed that the coarse fiber layer rapidly absorbed water when it was irrigated. On the other hand, the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening having a two-layer structure composed of 25 dtex core-sheath fiber and 150 dtex core-sheath fiber could absorb water only up to a height of 7 cm, and the vertical liquid absorption time could not be measured.
(2) The liquid retention amount according to the vertical height of the artificial soil sheet for wall greening in Examples 1 to 3 was 7 times or more compared to the sheet of the conventional example, and it was confirmed that the water retention was very high. . Moreover, the artificial soil sheet for wall surface greening of Examples 1-3 compared with the artificial soil sheet for wall greening of the comparative example 1 was a little inferior in the water retention in the part away from the irrigated position.
(3) Since the artificial soil sheets for wall surface greening of Examples 1 to 3 have a large amount of liquid retained by vertical height, the range in which water can be retained is large, and can be unitized in large units every 60 to 100 cm square. It could be confirmed. For this reason, it is possible to greatly reduce the total number of units laid on the entire construction surface such as the outer wall for wall greening, and to significantly reduce the construction time and construction cost. In contrast, the conventional artificial soil sheet for greening has a low amount of liquid retained by vertical height and rises only up to 7 cm, so it must be divided into units of about 10 cm square and unitized. Compared to the artificial soil sheet for greening, it was estimated that the construction work took time and the construction cost increased.
(4) Since the artificial soil sheets for wall greening in Examples 1 to 3 are composed of a laminate mainly composed of glass fibers, they have high heat resistance, are hardly deformed even at 300 ° C., and the loss on ignition is as small as 5% by mass. . For this reason, even when laid in harsh environments that are exposed to direct sunlight in the summer, the sheet shape can be maintained, and the water retention is high, so it is excellent as an artificial soil sheet for wall greening that is installed near the rooftop where the environmental conditions are severe. It was confirmed that On the other hand, since the artificial soil sheet for greening of a conventional example has already deformed at 110 ° C. and is ignited and incinerated at 210 ° C. or higher, it has been found that it is not suitable for places with severe environmental conditions.
