Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a polytetrafluoroethylene yarn and a method for manufacturing the same.
  • Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) yarns are superior in terms of heat resistance, weather resistance, chemical resistance, low friction coefficient, low dielectric constant, and biocompatibility (anti-thrombic properties). Accordingly, these yarns have been used in a broad range of fields. For example, such yarns have been used as supports in various types of membranes such as reverse osmosis membranes, ultra-filtration membranes, precision filtration membranes, filtration membranes for bag filters, power filter filtration membranes, and ion exchange membranes. There are also cases in which such yarns are used in surgical sutures and surgical application cloths.
  • membranes such as reverse osmosis membranes, ultra-filtration membranes, precision filtration membranes, filtration membranes for bag filters, power filter filtration membranes, and ion exchange membranes.
  • yarns are manufactured substantially as follows: specifically, a PTFE powder is first mixed with a lubricant to form a paste. This is extrusion-molded and dried by heating so that the lubricant is removed. The extrusion-molded product thus obtained is drawn at a temperature below the melting point of the PTFE to form a sheet. Then, this sheet is slit in a long slender configuration to form a tape. A slit yarn is then manufactured by drawing this tape at a temperature equal to or greater than the melting point of the PTFE.
  • the abovementioned slit body of the sheet (tape) is extremely flexible, so that the tape may be bent in the longitudinal direction while running through the apparatus. Furthermore, the bent width in the direction of length of the tape is non-uniform, so that there is a large variation in the diameter of the yarn.
  • the tape is made thinner, the abovementioned bending can be reduced; however, the softness of the slit yarn obtained drops, and the slitting workability also drops.
  • the micro-fibers are cut so that nap tends to be formed, thus generating fiber debris, and forming sites for yarn breakage.
  • the present invention was devised in light of the above facts; it is an object of the present invention to provide slit yarn that can suppress variation in the denier, and a method for manufacturing the same.
  • the present inventor discovered that if a strip-form protruding part is formed on a rotating roll, an expanded porous polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) tape is caused to run along the top surface of this strip-form protruding part, and the tape is bent at both side parts of the top surface of the protruding part, the folded width of the slit yarn that is obtained can be made substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn, and that in a slit yarn with a substantially uniform folded width obtained in this manner, variation in the yarn diameter can be suppressed, and fiber debris and yarn breakage can also be reduced.
  • ePTFE expanded porous polytetrafluoroethylene
  • the main point of the slit yarn of the present invention is that both side parts are folded one or more times, and the folded width is substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn.
  • this X is (for example) approximately 4% or less.
  • the abovementioned slit yarn be formed into a twisted yarn by applying a twist.
  • the number of twists may be 800 T/m or less, preferably 500 T/m or less.
  • This twisted yarn can be formed into a cloth, and this cloth can be used as (for example) a support for an ion exchange membrane.
  • the slit yarn of the present invention can be manufactured by (a) slitting an expanded porous polytetrafluoroethylene sheet in the direction of length to form a tape, (b) causing the abovementioned tape to run over a first rotating roll on which a strip-form protruding part having a top surface with a width narrower than the tape width is formed so as to cover this top surface, and bending the tape at both side parts of the top surface of the protruding part, and (c) drawing the tape after folding the bent parts. It is desirable that a tensile tension be applied to the tape when the tape is caused to run along the abovementioned strip-form protruding part.
  • the curvature radius R of the corner parts formed by the top surface and side surfaces of the abovementioned strip-form protruding part is (for example) approximately 1.0 mm or less. It is desirable that both side parts of the tape be bent to an acute angle; accordingly, for example, (i) the angle formed by the top surface and side surfaces of the abovementioned strip-form protruding part may be set at less than 90°, or (ii) following the bending of the tape, the bent part of the tape alone may be caused to advance in an interval that becomes narrower moving in the direction of progression of the tape.
  • the tape may be caused to run over a second rotating roll while the system is arranged so that the bent sides form the surface, after both sides of the tape have been bent to an acute angle, or (ii) the tape may be pressed in the direction of thickness so that both side parts of the tape are folded, after both sides of the tape have been bent into acute angles.
  • the folded width of the slit yarn of the present invention since the folded width is substantially uniform, variation in the yarn diameter is suppressed, and fiber debris and yarn breakage can also be reduced. Furthermore, in the method of the present invention for manufacturing a slit yarn, a strip-form protruding part is formed on a rotating roll, an ePTFE tape is caused to run along the top surface of this strip-form protruding part, and this tape is bent at both side parts of the top surface of this strip-form protruding part; accordingly, the folded width of the slit yarn that is obtained can be made substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn.

  • ePTFE expanded porous polytetrafluoroethylene
  • an ePTFE tape 110 obtained by slitting an ePTFE sheet at a specified width by means of a slitting blade (not shown in the figures) is taken up.
  • a plurality of strip-form protruding parts is formed on this bending roll 20 along the running direction of the ePTFE tape 110 .
  • both side parts of the tape 110 are bent.
  • the tape is caused to run over the folding roll 30 while the system is arranged so that the bent sides form the surface, thus folding both side parts of the tape 110 .
  • the folded parts are pressed (nipped) in the thickness direction of the tape by the folding roll 30 and nip roll 40 , and the folded tape 120 that has thus been nipped is drawn (especially hot-drawn) by a drawing machine (not shown in the figures) so that a slit yarn is manufactured.
  • the width T 1 of the top surface 24 of each strip-form protruding part 21 formed on the bending roll 20 is narrower than the width T 2 of the ePTFE tape 110 is caused to run so that this narrow top surface 24 is covered.
  • the ePTFE tape 110 can be bent into substantially a C-form shape by both side parts (edges) 23 , 23 of the top surface 24 of the strip-form protruding part.
  • the ePTFE tape 110 can be more securely bent by both side parts 23 , 23 of the top surface of the protruding part.
  • the width T 2 of the ePTFE tape 110 is 0.5 mm or greater, preferably 1 mm or greater, and even more preferably 2 mm or greater.
  • the upper limit on the width T 2 is approximately 50 mm; e.g., the width T 2 is ordinarily about 10 mm.
  • the thickness of the ePTFE tape 110 is approximately 5 ⁇ m or greater (especially 10 ⁇ m or greater) but 1000 ⁇ m or less (especially 700 ⁇ m or less). If the thickness of the ePTFE tape 110 departs from the abovementioned range, folding of the ePTFE tape becomes substantially difficult.
  • a guide member 70 is used in order to adjust the bent parts of the ePTFE tape 110 to an acute angle. Details of this guide member 70 are shown in the schematic perspective view shown in FIG. 4 and the schematic plan view shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 . As is shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 , the guide member 70 comprises a plurality of comb-tooth-form protruding parts 71 , and the system is devised so that these comb-tooth-form protruding parts 71 are mutually interlocked with the strip-form protruding parts 21 formed on the bending roll 20 .
  • the comb-tooth-form protruding parts 71 show narrower mutual gaps as these parts proceed in the forward direction of rotation of the bending roll 20 , and form V-shaped parts (gaps) 72 that appear to have substantially the shape of a letter V when viewed from above. Furthermore, when these V-shaped parts (gaps) 72 are viewed from the side, these parts return upward toward the folding roll (third roll) 30 .

  • the ePTFE tape 110 that has been bent into a sectional C shape by the bending roll 20 (strip-form protruding parts 21 ) is fed upward by the rotation of the bending roll 20 , and is introduced between the comb-tooth-form protruding parts 71 .
  • the tape 110 leaves the bending roll 20 and advances toward the folding roll 30 (upwards) (see FIG. 6 ).
  • V-shaped parts (gaps) 72 of the guide member 70 are also caused to return upward so as to run along the direction of advance of this ePTFE 110 , and only the bent parts 112 of the tape 110 are caused to advance into these V-shaped parts 72 , so that bending angle can be adjusted to an acute angle (see FIGS. 7 ( c ) and 7 ( d )).
  • the ePTFE tape 110 that is bent to an acute angle in the V-shaped parts 72 (guide member 70 ) is wrapped around the folding roll 30 while the system is devised so that these bent sides form the surface (see FIG. 6 ). As a result of this wrapping, the bent parts 112 are folded.
  • the folded tape 120 is pressed in the thickness direction of the tape 120 by the nip roll 40 , so that the abovementioned folding is made more secure. Furthermore, the tape 120 that is thus securely folded is drawn by a drawing machine (not shown in the figures) so that a slit yarn is manufactured.
  • the slit yarn obtained by the abovementioned manufacturing method has substantially the plan view shape shown in FIG. 8 .
  • both side parts 141 and 142 of the slit yarn 140 are folded, and the folded width D is substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn.
  • the uniformity of this folded width D can be expressed by a fluctuation coefficient X that is associated with the width W of the slit yarn.
  • the fluctuation coefficient X is a value that is calculated on the basis of the following equation (1) from the average value W(avg) and standard deviation W( ⁇ ) of the width W of the slit yarn; the measurement points of the width W of the slit yarn are set as 20 or more points at intervals of 0.5 m.
  • X (%) W ( ⁇ )/ W (avg) ⁇ 100 (1)
  • the abovementioned fluctuation coefficient X is 4% or less, preferably 3.5% or less, and even more preferably 3% or less. Since the folded width D of the slit yarn of the present invention is thus substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn, variation in the yarn diameter of the yarn can be suppressed. Furthermore, drawing irregularity can be reduced, and the uniformity of the physical properties in the direction of length of the slit yarn can also be improved.
  • the width W(avg) of the slit yarn is 10 ⁇ m, preferably 50 ⁇ m, and even more preferably 50 ⁇ m.
  • the upper limit of the width W(avg) of the slit yarn is usually about 5000 ⁇ m or less (e.g., 1000 ⁇ m or less, and especially 500 ⁇ m or less).
  • the denier of the slit yarn is no particular restrictions on long as a strength that is sufficient to prevent yarn breakage during twisting can be maintained.
  • this denier is 5 denier or greater, preferably 10 denier or greater, and even more preferably 20 denier or greater.
  • this denier is usually about 2000 denier or less (e.g., 1000 denier or less, especially 500 denier or less).

Furthermore, the generation of fiber debris can also be prevented.
  • the folded parts 143 and 144 of the slit yarn need not overlap as shown in FIG. 8 ; these parts may instead overlap as shown in FIG. 9 . If the folded parts are overlapped, the slit sectional surface 145 can be covered to a higher degree, and the formation of a finer slit yarn can also easily be accomplished.
  • the number of times that both side parts 141 and 142 of the slit yarn 140 are folded is not limited to a single time as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 ; this folding may be performed twice as shown in FIG. 10 , or three or more times.

  • the slit yarn 140 shown in FIG. 10 can be manufactured by again bending (see FIGS. 11 ( b ) and 11 ( c )) and folding (see FIGS. 11 ( d ) and 11 ( e )) into a C shape the folded tape 120 (or slit yarn 140 ) in which both side parts have been folded once as shown in FIG. 11 ( a ). Furthermore, as will be described later, this can also be manufactured by using a specified guide member.
  • the folded parts 143 and 144 are shown as though a gap 149 remains inside the folded-back structure; however, this is done in order to facilitate understanding of the folded structure of the slit yarn.

If strip-form recessed parts are used as shown in this FIG. 12 , the ePTFE tape 110 can be bent into a concave shape. Furthermore, the ePTFE tape 110 can also be bent into a concave shape by utilizing an auxiliary member (round bar or the like) 80 such as that shown in FIG. 13 . In the example shown in FIG.
  • an auxiliary member (round bar) 80 is interposed between the strip-form protruding parts 21 , and the system is arranged so that a substantially concave shape is formed by this round bar 80 and the top surfaces of the strip-form protruding parts 21 .

  • Parts with various cross-sectional shapes can also be used as the abovementioned strip-form protruding parts in cases where such strip-form protruding parts are formed.
  • the top surfaces 24 of the strip-form protruding parts may be formed as flat parts or as parts that are not flat.

  • the curvature radius R of the corner parts 23 is approximately 1.0 mm or less, preferably 0.3 mm or less, and even more preferably 0.1 mm or less. As the curvature radius R is reduced, the bending habit of the ePTFE tape 110 can be strengthened.
  • the height of the strip-form protruding parts be greater than the width of the bent parts 112 of the ePTFE tape 110 . If this height is greater than the width of the bent parts 112 , bending into a substantial C shape can be accomplished in a stable manner.
  • the material of the bending roll 20 there are no particular restrictions on the material of the bending roll 20 ; however, a comparatively hard member (e.g., a metal member of SUS or the like, or a hard plastic member of hard PVC or the like) is desirable. If the bending roll 20 is manufactured using a hard member, the bending habit of the ePTFE tape 110 compared to cases in which a member having a large elasticity such as a rubber-like member or the like is used.

  • the guide member 70 that is used after the ePTFE tape 110 has been bent by the bending roll 20 may have any of various shapes, as long as this guide member has a gap 72 that allows only the bent parts 112 of the ePTFE tape 110 to advance, and that grows narrower in the direction of advance of the tape 110 .
  • the reason for this is that if such a gap 72 is present, the ePTFE tape can be bent to an acute angle.
  • a U-shaped tube 73 whose radius becomes smaller in the direction of advance of the tape 110 can also be used as the guide member 70 .
  • the number of gradually narrowing gaps 72 may be a single gap per strip of ePTFE tape, or may be two gaps per strip of ePTFE tape. If there are two gaps 72 per strip of tape, then, as is shown in FIG. 17 , the both side parts of the ePTFE tape can be bent twice, and a slit yarn such as that shown in FIG. 10 can be manufactured in one pass.
  • the guide member 70 have a part that is clamped between the strip-form protruding parts 21 as shown in the comb-tooth-form protruding part 71 or the like. If such a part is present, the bent width of the ePTFE tape 110 can be stabilized to a higher degree.
  • the material of the guide member 70 there are no particular restrictions on the material of the guide member 70 ; however, since a relatively high dimensional stability is required, a metal member is desirable, and from the standpoint of easy cutting, aluminum is especially desirable.
  • the guide member 70 is not essential.
  • the corner parts (corners, angles) 23 of the strip-form protruding parts 21 of the bending roll 20 are set at an acute angle, the ePTFE tape 110 can be bent to an acute angle even if a guide member 70 is not used.

  • the ePTFE sheet may be a sheet obtained by the method described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 51-18991.
  • the slit yarn of the present invention can be used in a broad range of fields; however, the slit yarn of the present invention is especially superior to a conventional PTFE yarn when used in a twisted yarn.
  • the folded width D is substantially uniform in the direction of length of the yarn. Accordingly, when a twist is applied so that the yarn is formed into a twisted yarn, twisting irregularities can be reduced.
  • twisting irregularities are conspicuous when the number of twists is 800 T/m or less (e.g., 700 T/m or less, and especially 600 T/m or less); however, in the slit yarn of the present invention, twisting irregularities can be reduced even in the case of such a low twist number.
  • the folded width D is substantially uniform, and twisting irregularities are reduced; accordingly, the yarn diameter is made highly uniform. Consequently, when cloths are formed from these twisted yarns, these cloths can be utilized in an extremely advantageous manner as supports for various types of membranes (reverse osmosis membranes, ultra-filtration membranes, precision filtration membranes, bag filter filtration membranes, ion exchange membranes and the like; and especially ion exchange membranes).
  • membranes reverse osmosis membranes, ultra-filtration membranes, precision filtration membranes, bag filter filtration membranes, ion exchange membranes and the like; and especially ion exchange membranes.
  • the performance (ion exchange capacity) of an ion exchange membrane is affected by the yarn diameter of the cloth constituting the support. Specifically, the ion exchange capacity can be increased by reducing the yarn diameter so that the blocking effect of the yarn is reduced. If the yarn diameter is made uniform using the slit yarn of the present invention, the thick-diameter part can be reduced; accordingly, this is extremely advantageous in increasing the ion exchange capacity.
  • the cloth of the present invention uses a twisted yarn obtained from the slit yarn of the present invention, and is worked and manufactured into desired shapes in accordance with the applications involved such as woven fabrics, knits, nonwoven fabrics, felts, nets and the like.
  • the abovementioned cloth can be appropriately used; however, from the standpoints of mechanical strength and dimensional stability, a woven fabric is preferably used.
  • a woven fabric is preferably used.
  • a plain weave, satin weave, twill or the like can be appropriately used.
  • a plain weave is desirable in terms of obtaining dimensional stability, and in terms of obtaining superior uniformity when an ion exchange membrane is manufactured.
  • the slit yarn used in an ion exchange membrane ordinarily has a denier of 10 to 400 denier and a twist frequency of 150 to 4000 times.
  • the weave density in cases where a plain weave is used is appropriately set in accordance with the required performance; however, both warp and woof are 5 yarns per inch or greater, preferably 10 yarns per inch or greater, and 100 yarns per inch or less, preferably 70 yarns per inch or less. If the weave density falls below 5 yarns per inch, the uniformity of the ion exchange membrane is lost, and the strength becomes insufficient. If the weave density exceeds 100 yarns per inch, the ion blocking rate of the slit yarn becomes high, so that there is a danger that the performance of the ion exchange membrane will drop.
  • the ion exchange membrane of the present invention is manufactured by forming a composite of an ion exchange resin and the cloth of the present invention.
  • the type of ion exchange resin used and the method used to form a composite of the cloth and ion exchange resin can be appropriately selected in accordance with the application involved, e.g., sodium chloride electrolysis, fuel cell use or the like; here, a method that is especially suitable for use in a fuel cell application will be described.

  • non-fluororesin type ion exchange resins include polyalkylene oxides, polyvinyl alcohols, sulfonated polyether ether ketones, styrene—divinylbenzene ion exchange resins and the like. These may also form metal salts.
  • Desirable non-fluororesin type ion exchange resins include polyalkylene oxide—alkali metal salt composites (e.g., ethylene oxide oligomers polymerized in the presence of alkali metal salts such as lithium chlorate or the like), polyether ether ketone sulfonated by being placed in filming sulfuric acid, and the like.
  • fluororesins type ion exchange resins include perfluorosulfonic acid resins, perfluorocarboxylic acid resins and the like.
  • Especially desirable fluororesin type ion exchange resins are perfluorosulfonic acid resins.
  • perfluorosulfonic acid resins are commercially marketed as “Nafion” of DuPont Co., “Aoiplex” of Asahi Kasei K.K., and “Flemion” of Asahi Glass K.K. These commercially marketed products may also be used.
  • the ion exchange resin is dissolved in a solvent to prepare an ion exchange resin solution.
  • the type and concentration of the solvent are appropriately determined in accordance with the type of the ion exchange membrane, the structure and density of the cloth and the like.
  • the cloth of the present invention is impregnated with the abovementioned ion exchange resin solution, and an ion exchange membrane is obtained by evaporating the solvent in an oven.
  • an ion exchange membrane can also be manufactured by extruding a perfluororesin having —SO 2 F functional groups into film form on at least one side of a cloth by means of hot melt extrusion molding using a T die, laminating and integrating the cloth and resin film, and then performing hydrolysis so that the —SO 2 F functional groups are converted into —SO 3 H groups or metal salts such as —SO 3 Na or the like.
  • an ion exchange resin with other functional groups may also be used.

  • a drawn porosified PTFE sheet was manufactured according to the method described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 51-18991. Specifically, kerosene was mixed with a PTFE powder, and this mixture was formed into a tape by extrusion and rolling. Next, the kerosene was removed by heating and drying at a temperature of 200° C., and the tape was uniaxially drawn to a draw ratio of 300% at a temperature of 300° C., thus producing a PTFE sheet (thickness 60 ⁇ m) having an expanded porous structure.
  • FIGS. 1 through 7 An expanded porous PTFE (ePTFE) tape obtained by slitting this ePTFE sheet to a width of 4.0 mm by means of a cutting blade was treated as shown in FIGS. 1 through 7 , thus producing a slit yarn. Furthermore, the width of the strip-form protruding part 21 was set at 1.0 mm, and the running speed of the ePTFE tape 110 and folded tape 120 was set at 10 m/min. The drawing conditions of the folded tape 120 were as follows: drawing temperature 350° C., draw ratio 1000%. As is clear from a sectional photograph ( FIG. 20 ) and plan view photograph ( FIG. 21 ) of the slit yarn, this slit yarn has a shape in which the folded parts 143 and 144 shown in FIG. 9 are superimposed.

  • the slit yarn 140 was disposed so that the folded surface of the slit yarn was on the upper side (opposite side from the steel plate).
  • the mass of the weight was set at 0.1 g per denier of the slit yarn (i.e., 10 g in the case of a 100 d slit yarn).
  • the fastening fitting 220 was caused to perform a reciprocating motion at a speed of 33 mm/second and a reciprocating width of 50 mm, and a test was performed as to whether or not nap was generated in the slit yarn 140 by the edge parts 215 of the steel plate 210 .
