Definitions
- the present invention relates to nonwoven fabrics and their production processes and installations and their applications.
- To manufacture hygiene products such as baby diapers, adult incontinence diapers, feminine periodical protections, it is desirable to manufacture them from a material having a density as small as possible and a tensile strength as isotropic as The invention provides for this by a process for the production of a nonwoven, in which filaments from a spun-bond tower are deposited in a sheet having a longitudinal direction on a conveyor, the sheet is compressed. in a compressed tablecloth perpendicular to the plane of the tablecloth, then the compressed tablecloth is subjected to a consolidation by spraying there with water jets with a diameter of 50 to 250 microns under a pressure of 50 to 500 bar.

- the threads have a diameter of between 0.18 and 0.30 mm and the fabric has a number of threads per centimeter both in the warp direction and in the weft direction from 15 to 30.
- a nonwoven fabric of filaments having a density less than 0.10 g / cm 3 and in particular between 0.09 g / cm 3 and 0.03 g / cm 3 and better still between 0.07 and 0.03 g / cm3 and a ratio of the maximum tensile strength in the machine direction to the maximum resistance to transverse traction less than 1.5 and even less than 1, 3, or even less than 1, 1.
- a nonwoven fabric according to the invention thus combines the isotropy of the properties with a very low density which makes this nonwoven fabric incomparable for the manufacture of baby diapers, either as a covering veil in contact with the baby's skin, either as an exterior textile trim to give a textile appearance.
- the nonwovens according to the invention can also be used as a covering veil for feminine hygiene products, as a culture covering veil for agriculture, as a filtering medium for air or gas or liquid filtration. , in coating supports and in wiping products.
- the nonwoven fabric according to the invention has a better acquisition speed and a greater distribution speed which makes it particularly useful for baby diapers.
- the halo for diffusing the liquid onto the nonwoven fabric according to the invention is substantially circular, which further increases the useful surface area for acquiring and absorbing the liquid.
- a greater instantaneous retention capacity has been found to the point that a single layer of the nonwoven fabric on the invention is equivalent to filter media consisting of 4 layers according to the prior art.
- the life of the filter is extended.

- titles of between 1 and 8 dtex are found, with a preference for securities between 2 and 6 dtex.
- the invention accommodates non-crimped filaments, which considerably simplifies the production process. But, possibly the filaments can also be crimped, although this is not preferred because it complicates the manufacture.
- the invention is particularly preferred for nonwovens weighing between 12 and 50 g / m2.
- the metallic fabric is steel or bronze and has a thickness of between 0.40 and 0.75 mm. It is particularly preferred that the metallic fabric has a canvas weave, a twill weave or a satin weave.
- the first stage of the process according to the invention consists in depositing filaments in a sheet on a conveyor.
- the filaments can in particular be made of polyolefin, polyester, polyamide, metallocene polyvinyl alcohol, polylactic acid or other suitable plastics.
- the filaments preferably have a titer between
- two spun-bond towers are used, the dies of which are inclined, preferably in an opposite manner, at an angle of 10 to 60 ° and preferably of 20 to 50 ° relative to the direction longitudinal of the web which is the direction in which the conveyor moves and which is also called the machine direction.
- the angles of inclination of the two dies can be different, one of them can also be perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the sheet.
- the second stage of the process consists in compressing the sheet into a compressed sheet while it is on the conveyor.
- This compression is carried out by usual mechanical means, in particular by passing the ply through the nip between two cylinders or by compressing it between the conveyor and a cylinder.
- the third stage of the process according to the invention consists in consolidating the compressed sheet by projecting water jets with a diameter of 50 to 250 microns under a pressure of 50 to 500 bar. It is a binding of the sheet by hydraulic entanglement which is conventional, except that care is taken to project the water jets through a metallic fabric whose wires have a prescribed diameter and whose number of wires per centimeter is prescribed in the warp direction and in the weft direction or through a microperforated sleeve as described above.

- the consolidation treatment can also be carried out on several successive drums each equipped with one or more hydraulic injectors, in particular when the production speed is very high, for example being 800 m per minute. At these speeds, the use of gutters for recovering the rebounds from the water jets fixed on the injectors is particularly useful. In general, the speeds are between 20 m / min. and 1000 m / min. one can in particular combine a fabric drum and a drum cylinder with microperforated sleeve.
- the metallic fabric which is called exterior can be mounted directly on a rotary support drum, but it can also be mounted on a coarse metallic fabric called interior fabric made up of threads of diameter at least equal to 0.5 mm and which serves as drainage fabric.
- the inner metallic fabric is thus interposed between the rotary drum and the outer metallic fabric, preferably being in contact with the latter.

- the water extraction slots facing the injectors preferably have a width of between 5 and 50 mm and preferably between 15 and 40 mm.
- the nonwoven fabric of filaments obtained by the process according to the invention has a great softness. But if we accept to give up this softness, the two other desired properties can be further improved, namely the small density and the ratio of the resistance in the machine direction to the resistance in the cross direction close to the unit by choosing as a drum a metal sleeve perforated with holes diameter between 50 and 600 microns and preferably between 150 and 500 microns and comprising from 20 to 200 holes per cm 2 and preferably from 70 to

- Calendering speeds can reach several hundred meters per minute and in particular from 100 to 800 m / min.
- the resistance index expressed in newtons per 50 mm per gram of nonwoven per m 2 is particularly good in the case where the calendering operation is incorporated into the process according to the invention. he can reach 2.8, namely 1.5 in the running direction and 1, 3 in the transverse direction while the grammage of the nonwoven fabric is between 12 and 150 g / m a , preferably 12 to 100 g / m2 and better from 12 to 40 g / m2. It is preferably possible to reach a resistance index of at least 3.5 and better still of at least 4.5, or even at least 5.5.

Due to their poor mechanical properties, it is not possible to reduce the mass per square meter of these carded and then calendered nonwovens. With nonwovens made up of continuous filaments and in accordance with the invention, it is possible to obtain thicker, more resistant, more isotropic and lesser mass per square meter.
