Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a filter medium with good productivity and high performance by specifying a relation among mean fiber diameters of each layer in a fused laminated collecting sheet prepd. by jet-laminating an intermediate layer on melt-blown nonwoven fabric and furthermore, jet-laminating melt-blown nonwoven fabric on the intermediate layer. CONSTITUTION:An intermediate layer 2 such as staple fiber nonwoven fabric and spun bonded fabric is formed by jet lamination on melt-blown nonwoven fabric 1 and furthermore, melt-blown nonwoven fabric 3 is formed by jet on this surface to prepare a fused laminated sheet. In addition, when mean fiber diameters of the melt-blown nonwoven fabric 1, the intermediate layer 2 and the melt-blown nonwoven fabric 3 are A, B and C respectively, the relation among these mean fiber diameters A-C is made A<B<C. It is possible thereby to make fused condition between each interlayer appropriate, to get rid of sudden increase in pressure loss and to make the life long.

The method of manufacturing the composite filter medium according to the present invention will be described in the order of steps with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. First,
An ultrafine meltblown non-woven fabric 1 having an average fiber diameter of 5 μm or less is produced by a known meltblowing technique.

Next, the extra fine melt blown nonwoven fabric 1 is shown in FIG.
It is installed as a supply roll shown in No. 7 and is supplied to the collecting drum. From above, a melt blow to form the mid layer 2 is jetted to obtain a fusion-bonded laminated collection sheet, which is wound by 8.

Again, the wound laminated collection sheet is set at 7 so that the intermediate layer is on the upper side, and is supplied onto the collection drum.
An extra-thick melt blow functioning as a support layer is jetted from above to obtain a multi-layer fusion-laminated collection sheet having a support layer and a filtration layer and having a proper fusion state.

The material constituting the meltblown non-woven fabric is not particularly limited as long as it is a thermoplastic polymer such as polyolefin, polyester or polycarbonate. Here, the average fiber diameter of the extra fine melt blow 1 is 5μ.
It is below, but more preferably 3 μm to 0.5 μm.
The melt blow method is not rational for obtaining a fiber diameter of 0.3 μm or less, and if it is 5 μm or more, sufficient filter performance cannot be obtained, and therefore it is not suitable as a high performance filter.

Next, the intermediate layer of the present invention will be described. In the prior art, as described above, in order to fulfill the function as a support layer on the extra fine melt blow 1, the extra thick melt blow 3 was jetted and fusion-laminated in an unsolidified state to obtain a two-layer structure filter medium. However, the drawback of the filter media produced by this technology is that the difference between the fiber diameter of the extra-fine melt blow required for the filter performance and the fiber diameter of the extra-thick melt blow required for the function as the support layer is so large that the extra-thick melt blow is performed. The problem with fusion-laminating due to the injection of is that it inevitably becomes extremely thick, so it has a heat capacity that is more than necessary, and as a result, it melts the extra-fine meltblown more than necessary. However, there was a problem that the film was formed into a film, which caused a fatal extreme pressure loss as a filter medium. Therefore, this intermediate layer 2 was devised for the purpose of suppressing excessive melting, and before the injection of the extra-thick melt blow, a melt blow having a fiber diameter intermediate between the extra-thin melt blow and the extra-thick melt blow is once injected and the laminated layer is captured. To get a collection sheet. By this method,
It has been found that the difference in fiber diameter between the fused surfaces is reduced, the degree of melting is alleviated, and over-melting, which is fatal as a filter, can be prevented.

For this purpose, the fiber diameter of the intermediate layer is preferably 1.1 to 10.0 times the ultrafine meltblown fiber diameter. When the fiber diameter is smaller than this range, it becomes equivalent to the ultrafine melt blowing and is meaningless. Also for the basis weight, it does not require a very large basis weight for the same purpose.
80 g / m 2 is preferred. The intermediate layer 2 may be a single layer,
It may be divided into multiple layers.

Here, for the purpose of the intermediate layer, the ultrafine meltblown and the intermediate layer may not be directly bonded. That is, at the time of collecting and collecting the melt-blowing fabric forming conditions as the intermediate layer, the fibers may be already collected and laminated and collected, or a melt-blown nonwoven fabric satisfying the performance as the intermediate layer is prepared beforehand. Alternatively, it may be supplied to the collecting drum of the melt blower in an overlapping manner with the ultrafine melt blow. As a result, if the extra-thick melt blow penetrates the intermediate layer melt blow and is fused with the extra-fine melt blow, it is possible to obtain a filter medium sufficiently satisfying the purpose.

The filter medium produced by the present invention may be used as a single layer or may be used in a mountain-folded state. In particular, it is effective for applications such as air-conditioning applications that capture atmospheric dust, and can be expected to have a long life. That is, as shown in FIG. 3, in general, the service life range for air conditioning is between the initial pressure loss of the filter and the initial pressure loss of the filter since the final pressure loss of the filter is determined.

When the air is sucked in for a long period of time and the air dust is captured by the filter, the pressure loss starts to increase. However, in order to suppress the pressure loss increase due to the air dust as much as possible, the air dust is contained in the entire volume of the filter. It is most efficient to capture at.

However, the filter medium obtained by the conventional method has an extremely dense layer due to the overmelted portion at the laminated interface as described above, and clogging due to atmospheric dust at this portion causes a sharp increase in pressure loss. Since it reached the final pressure loss early, it was not practically applicable.

Electret processing is recommended as a means for further enhancing the filter performance of the filter media produced by the present invention. As such an electret processing method, a known method may be used. For example, as a general method, a composite filter medium is grounded between a flat plate or roll, one side of which is an earth electrode, and a needle-shaped or linear electrode installed 1 cm to 20 cm above it. It is conducted by passing it in contact with the pole and applying a high-voltage DC voltage. The surface charge density is 1 × 10 -11 c / cm.
It holds 2 to 1 × 10 −8 c / cm 2 . The electret may be embodied as a laminated sheet, or only the ultrafine melt blow may be subjected to electret processing in advance and laminated injection may be performed on this material by the above method.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION The filter medium produced by the present invention is a laminated sheet suitable for air conditioning obtained by a rational method which does not require a composite process even if it has a multi-layer structure using a melt-blowing cloth making apparatus, Moreover, it is a non-binder and can be manufactured at low cost, and the pressure loss due to clogging, which is a drawback due to overmelting of the fusion surface that could not be achieved by the conventional two-layer structure, suddenly increases. It is intended to eliminate the shortening of life due to
In other words, by providing an intermediate layer between the ultra-thin melt-blown layer and the extra-thick melt-blown layer, it is possible to optimize the fusion state between the layers and achieve a long service life without a sudden increase in pressure loss, which is inexpensive and has high performance. To obtain a simple filter medium.
