Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for forming a fibrous web from a high throughput electroblowing process.
- Solution spinning processes are frequently used to manufacture fibers and nonwoven fabrics, and in some cases have the advantage of high throughputs, such that the fibers or fabrics can be made in large, commercially viable quantities. These processes can be used to make fibrous webs that are useful in medical garments, filters and other end uses that require a selective barrier. The performance of these types of fibrous webs can be enhanced with the utilization of fibers with small diameters.
- a type of solution spinning called electroblowing produces very fine fibers by spinning a polymer solution through a spinning nozzle in combination with a blowing gas and in the presence of an electric field.
- electroblowing produces very fine fibers by spinning a polymer solution through a spinning nozzle in combination with a blowing gas and in the presence of an electric field.
- the present invention is a fiber spinning process comprising the steps of providing a polymer solution, which comprises at least one polymer dissolved in at least one solvent with a vapor pressure of at least about 6 kPa at 25°C, to a spinneret, issuing the polymer solution in combination with a blowing gas in a direction away from at least one spinning nozzle in the spinneret and in the presence of an electric field wherein the polymer solution is discharged through the spinning nozzle at a discharge rate between about 6 to about 100 ml/min/hole, forming fibers, and collecting the fibers on a collector.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic of a prior art electroblowing apparatus useful for preparing a fibrous web according to the invention.
- the present invention relates to solvent-spun webs and fabrics for a variety of customer end-use applications, such as filtration media, energy storage separators, protective apparel and the like.
- the present invention uses an electroblowing process to spin a polymer dissolved in a high vapor pressure solvent at a high rate of throughput into fibers and webs.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an electroblowing apparatus useful for carrying out the process of the present invention using electroblowing (or "electro-blown spinning") as described in International Publication Number WO2003/080905.
- This prior art electroblowing method comprises feeding a solution of a polymer in a solvent from a storage tank 100, through a spinneret 102, to a spinning nozzle 104 to which a high voltage is applied, while compressed gas or blowing gas is directed toward the polymer solution through a blowing gas nozzle 106 as the polymer solution exits the spinning nozzle 104 to form fibers, and collecting the fibers into a web on a grounded collector 110 under vacuum created by vacuum chamber 114 and blower 112.
- the collection apparatus is preferably a moving collection belt positioned within the electrostatic field between the spinneret 102 and the collector 110. After being collected, the fiber layer is directed to and wound onto a wind-up roll on the downstream side of the collector 110.
- the fibrous web can be deposited onto any of a variety of porous scrim materials arranged on the moving collection belt, such as spunbonded nonwovens, meltblown nonwovens, needle punched nonwovens, woven fabrics, knit fabrics, apertured films, paper and combinations thereof.
- porous scrim materials such as spunbonded nonwovens, meltblown nonwovens, needle punched nonwovens, woven fabrics, knit fabrics, apertured films, paper and combinations thereof.
- a secondary gas can contact the fibers downstream from the spinneret to help drive off solvent from the fiber.
- the secondary gas can be positioned to impinge the fibers or can be used as a sweeping gas to help remove solvent from the general spinning area.
- solvents with high vapor pressure can be used. According to the invention, solvents with vapor pressures of at least 6 kPa at 25°C are preferred, of at least 10 kPa at 25°C are more preferred and of at least 20 kPa at 25°C are still more preferred.
- Suitable solvents with high vapor pressure include methanol (16.9), ethanol (7.9), acetone (30.8), butanone (12.1 ), dichloromethane (58.1 ), 1 ,2-dichloroethane (10.6), trifluoroacetic acid (14.7), ethyl acetate (12.4), tetrahydrofuran (21.6), chloroform (26), carbon tetrachloride (15.4), and hydrocarbons including pentane (68.3), hexane (20.2), heptane (6.1 ), cyclohexane (13), methylcyclohexane (6.1 ), and benzene (12.3), where the numbers in parentheses are the vapor pressures of these solvents at 25°C in units of kPa.
- vapor pressure data was obtained from Organic Solvents". Volume 2, fourth edition, by John Riddick, William Bunger, and Theodore Sakano, John Wiley & Sons, 1986 or from the DIPPR ® database of physical properties of solvents. According to the invention, solvents with vapor pressures of at least 6 kPa at 25°C are preferred, of at least 10 kPa at 25°C are more preferred and of at least 20 kPa at 25°C are still more preferred.
- the polymer solution can be spun at a temperature of about 0 0 C to the boiling point of the solvent.
- These solvents can be used to prepare polymer solutions that can be spun at a discharge rate between about 6 to about 100 ml/min/hole, more advantageously between about 10 to about 100 ml/min/hole, and most advantageously between about 20 to about 100 ml/min/hole.
