Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a nonwoven fabric for a wet tissue paper having a large thickness in wet state thereof and good in skin touch feeling by using mixed cotton material consisting of a cellulosic fiber and an acrylic fiber, and not containing a prescribed amount or more of a thermally melting and adhering fiber and a crimped fiber. SOLUTION: This non woven fabric for a wet tissue paper is obtained by applying a mixed cotton material countering 60-99 wt.% cellulosic fiber such as a cotton. a rayon, a pulp, a tencel, etc., and 1-40 wt.% acrylic fiber, also no containing >=10 wt.% thermally melting and adhering fiber such as a polyesthlene fiber and a polyproplylene fiber, and no containing a crimped fiber to a carding machine to form a nonwoven web, interlacing the constituting fibers thereof each other by a high speed water stream, then drying with a hot air to form a nonwoven fabric having 0.05-0.1 g/cm<3> fiber density under 0.55 g/cm<2> load. The wet tissue paper is obtained by impregnating the nonwoven fabric with 150-280 wt.% liquid such as water.

2. Description of the Related Art As a nonwoven fabric for wet tissue used for wiping dirt containing water, such as excrement of infants and spills on a table, and hand wiping, for example, cotton or rayon is used. Non-woven fabrics made of cellulosic fibers, etc., and non-woven fabrics obtained by blending a predetermined amount of PET / PP core-sheath type crimpable fibers with the cellulose fibers are known.

[0003] Among these nonwoven fabrics, the nonwoven fabric made of cellulosic fibers has good touch, but lacks the thickness in a wet state, and sometimes has insufficient mechanical strength at the time of wiping. On the other hand, in the case of a nonwoven fabric in which a PET / PP core / sheath type crimpable fiber is blended with a cellulosic fiber, the thickness in a wet state increases due to the action of the crimpable fiber, and the mechanical strength increases. The feel is reduced due to the tingling and the like caused by the crimped fibers. As described above, the thickness and the feel of the nonwoven fabric for wet tissue are of opposite properties.

Next, a method for producing the nonwoven fabric for wet tissue of the present invention will be described. The nonwoven fabric for wet tissue of the present invention is, for example, the constituent fibers are spread using a carding machine to form a fiber web, and then the fibers in the fiber web are bonded to each other using a binder, or the fiber web is heated by hot air. It can be manufactured by fusing the fibers inside. Preferably, the constituent fibers are opened using a carding machine to form a fiber web, and then the fibers in the fiber web are mechanically entangled using a high-speed water jet method (water needling method). It is manufactured by The use of such a method is preferable because the feel of the nonwoven nonwoven fabric obtained is improved. Incidentally, it is preferable that the pressure of the water flow in the case of using a high-speed water jet method is 20 to 50 kg / cm 2, further preferably 30-40 kg / cm 2.

m, fineness: 1.5 denier) was opened using a carding machine to form a fiber web. Next, the fibers in the fiber web are mechanically entangled with each other using a high-speed water flow (pressure 35 kg / cm 2 ), and further dried with hot air (100 ° C.).
By doing so, a nonwoven fabric having a basis weight of 40 g / m 2 was produced. The fiber density and thickness of the obtained nonwoven fabric under a load of 0.55 g / cm 2 were measured. Table 1 shows the results.
Shown in Next, the obtained nonwoven fabric was impregnated with 240% of water to obtain a wet tissue. With respect to this wet tissue, the touch was evaluated by the following method, and the thickness under a load of 0.55 g / cm 2 was measured. Table 1 shows the results.
