Definitions
- the present invention has an unprecedented quality stability and post-processability in a sea island fiber composed of an island component and a sea component arranged so as to surround the cross section of the fiber perpendicular to the fiber axis by two or more kinds of polymers.
- the present invention relates to a sea-island fiber for obtaining a good high-performance fabric.
- Fibers using thermoplastic polymers such as polyester and polyamide are excellent in mechanical properties and dimensional stability. For this reason, it is widely used not only for clothing but also for interiors, vehicle interiors, and industrial applications. However, with the diversification of fiber applications, the required characteristics are also diversified, and a technique for imparting sensibility effects such as texture and bulkiness depending on the cross-sectional shape of the fiber has been proposed. Among these, “extremely fine fiber” has a great effect on the properties of the fiber itself and the properties of the fabric. For this reason, it is a mainstream technique from the viewpoint of controlling the cross-sectional shape of the fiber.
- ultrafine fiber when single spinning is used, the diameter of the obtained fiber is limited to about several ⁇ m even if the spinning conditions are controlled with high precision. For this reason, a method of generating ultrafine fibers from sea-island fibers using composite spinning has been adopted. In this technique, a plurality of island components composed of hardly soluble components are arranged in the sea component composed of easily soluble components on the fiber cross section. Thereafter, after forming a fiber or a fiber product, the sea component is removed to generate ultrafine fibers composed of island components. By pursuing this sea-island spinning technology, it has become possible to collect ultrafine fibers (nanofibers) with extremely small nano-order fineness.
- nanofibers have extremely high performance of entering into fine grooves, increasing specific surface area, and capturing dirt in fine interfiber spaces. Utilizing the characteristics of this nanofiber, it is also used in industrial materials such as wiping cloths for precision instruments and precision polishing cloths.
- fibers having a large fiber diameter are responsible for the mechanical characteristics (for example, tension and waist) in the case of a fabric, which may improve the mechanical characteristics of the fabric.
- Patent Document 1 a mixed yarn of a fiber having a large fiber diameter and a sea-island fiber is used, and the mixed yarn is woven and knitted and then subjected to sea removal treatment. For this reason, there is a large deviation in the number of nanofibers present in the cross-sectional direction and the planar direction of the fabric. As a result, the fabric obtained from Patent Document 1 is partially different in mechanical properties (such as tension and waist) and water absorption. Therefore, there is a problem to use for clothing. In particular, in a lining application that directly touches human skin, the unique texture of nanofibers may cause unpleasant sensations. Furthermore, in these fabrics, the surface characteristics naturally also vary partially.
- sea-island fibers group of ultrafine fibers
- other fibers are once mixed in a pseudo constrained state when the fabric is used, and uses post-mixing. In some cases there is nothing wrong with it.
- the fiber diameter (island diameter) is large and small in advance in the cross section of the sea-island fiber. It is possible to consider a method of sea removal after making sea-island fibers that are mixed with each other, making a fabric by weaving and knitting the sea-island fibers.
- the outer side in the cross section of the sea-island fiber, the outer side is 1.8 denier (13000 nm) or more, the inner side is 1 denier (10000 nm) or less, and the outer fiber has a fineness of 3 or more compared to the inner fiber.
- a technology related to different denier composite fibers has been proposed.
- Patent Document 2 is a technique that uses a fiber having a substantially large fiber diameter (more than microfiber). For this reason, the deterioration of the remaining components is not taken into consideration. However, in order to use nanofibers, the deterioration of the remaining components becomes serious due to an increase in the specific surface area, and the deterioration of the mechanical properties, the deterioration of the quality due to the dropping of the nanofibers, and the like become problems.
- the core portion is made of a polyamide fiber having a single yarn fineness of 0.3 to 10 denier (5500 to 32000 nm), and the sheath portion is made of a polyester fiber having a single yarn fineness of 0.5 denier (6700 nm) or less.
- Techniques related to composite yarns (mixed yarns) have been proposed.
- the technique of Patent Document 3 uses a fiber having a fiber diameter substantially larger than that of a microfiber. For this reason, in order to make use of the flexibility of the ultrafine fiber, it is necessary to make the core component a polyamide fiber and the sheath component an ultrafine polyester fiber. Therefore, as described in the specification, the core component and the sheath component result in a difference in shrinkage rate and express bulkiness. On the other hand, since the core component with a large fiber diameter moves (shrinks) greatly in the sheath component with a small fiber diameter, even in the technique of Patent Document 3, fluctuations in fabric characteristics occur due to the bias of ultrafine fibers. There is.
- the mixed yarn is formed of different polymers, the familiarity between the sheath component (ultrafine fiber) and the core component is poor. For this reason, there is a concern that the quality of the sheath component may become fuzzy due to friction or the like.
- Patent Document 4 proposes a technique related to a die for obtaining a sea-island fiber in which island components having irregular cross-sections (including fiber diameter and fiber cross-sectional shape) are mixed by the application technique of a sea-island die.
- Patent Document 4 the island component covered with the sea component and the island component not covered with the sea component are supplied to the assembly (compression) portion as a composite polymer flow. By this effect, the island component not covered with the sea component is fused with the adjacent island component to form one island component. By randomly generating this phenomenon, a mixed yarn in which a thick denier fiber yarn and a fine denier fiber yarn are mixed in the fiber yarn is obtained.
- Patent Document 4 is characterized in that the arrangement of island components and sea components is not controlled.
- the pressure is controlled by the width of the flow path installed between the diversion flow path and the introduction hole, and the amount of polymer discharged from the discharge hole is controlled. There is a limit.
- the amount of polymer for each introduction hole on the sea component side is from 10 ⁇ 2 g / min / hole to 10 ⁇ 3 g / min / hole. Less. For this reason, the pressure loss that is proportional to the polymer flow rate and the wall spacing, which is the liver of Patent Document 4, is almost zero, which is not suitable for obtaining nanofibers with high accuracy.
- the ultrafine yarn generated from the sea-island fibers obtained in the examples is about 0.07 to 0.08 d (about 2700 nm), and nanofibers have not been obtained.
- JP 2007-26210 A (Claims) JP-A-5-331711 (Claims, Examples) Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-118977 (Claims, Examples) JP-A-8-158144 (pages 2, 3, 5)

- the nanofibers exist in a uniform and uniform state, the quality stability of the fabric characteristics is excellent.
- the nanofiber itself constituting at least a part of the fabric is also very homogeneous with an island component diameter of 10 to 1000 nm and a diameter variation of 1.0 to 20.0%.
- gap formed between nanofibers becomes a substantially uniform thing, and there will be a synergistic effect from a viewpoint of the quality stability of the fabric characteristic mentioned above.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention it is important that island components having two or more different diameters are already present in the same cross section at the sea-island fiber stage. Due to this effect, the sea-island fiber of the present invention can be used without any post-mixing as it is.
- the present invention has a very effective effect from the viewpoint of preventing fluctuations in fabric properties due to “bias of ultrafine fibers”, which was a problem of the prior art.

- FIG. 5C is a cross-sectional view of the discharge plate. It is an example of a part of distribution plate.
- FIG. 7- (a) to FIG. 7- (d) are enlarged views of a part of the final distribution plate. It is an evaluation result of island component diameter distribution in the sea island fiber section of the present invention.
- the sea-island fiber referred to in the present invention is composed of two or more types of polymers.
- Sea island (cross section) as used herein refers to a fiber having a structure in which island components made of one polymer are scattered in sea components made of the other polymer.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention is such that at least one type of island component has a diameter of 10 to 1000 nm and a diameter variation of 1.0 to 20.0% in a fiber (composite) cross section perpendicular to the fiber axis.
- the second requirement is that two or more types of island components having different diameters exist in the same fiber cross section.
- the diameter of the island component (island component diameter) referred to here is obtained as follows. That is, a multifilament made of sea-island fibers is embedded with an embedding agent such as an epoxy resin, and an image is taken at a magnification at which 150 or more island components can be observed with a transmission electron microscope (TEM). If there are no 150 or more island components in the cross section of one composite fiber, the image may be taken so that a total of 150 island components can be confirmed from the cross sections of many composite fibers. At this time, if the metal is dyed, the contrast of the island component can be made clear. The island component diameters of 150 island components randomly extracted from each image in which the fiber cross-section is photographed are measured.
- an embedding agent such as an epoxy resin
- the diameter of the island component referred to here is a perfect circle circumscribing the cut surface with a cross section perpendicular to the fiber axis from the two-dimensional image, and circumscribing the cut surface at two or more points. This means the diameter.
- the first decimal place is measured in nm units, and the decimal part is rounded off.
- the diameter variation is based on the measurement result of the island component diameter.
- the island component diameter variation (island component diameter CV%) (standard deviation of island component diameter / average value of island component diameter). This is a value calculated as x100 (%), and is rounded off to the first decimal place.
- the above operation was performed on 10 images taken in the same manner, and a simple number average value of the evaluation results of the 10 images was defined as the island component diameter and the island component diameter variation.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention it is possible to have an island component having a diameter of less than 10 nm in the cross section, but by making the island component diameter 10 nm or more, partial breakage or sea removal treatment during the yarn making process There is an effect that it becomes easy to set processing conditions such as.
- the flexibility, water absorption, wiping performance, etc. of nano-order fibers A function is necessary.
- at least 1 type of island component needs to have a diameter of 1000 nm or less.
- the diameter of at least one island component is 700 nm or less.
- the lower limit of the island component diameter is preferably 100 nm or more. Therefore, in the sea-island fiber of the present invention, it can be mentioned as a more preferable range that at least one kind of island component is 100 to 700 nm.
- the island component having a diameter of 10 to 1000 nm needs to have a diameter variation of 1.0 to 20.0%.
- nanofibers have extremely small fiber diameters, so that the specific surface area, which means the surface area per mass, is increased compared to general fibers and microfibers.
- the function unique to nanofibers generally depends largely on the specific surface area proportional to the square of the island component diameter. Therefore, when the island component diameter variation is large, it means that the characteristics of the mixed yarn and the fabric are greatly changed. For the above reasons, it is important to set the range in terms of improving the quality stability.
- the nanofiber has a large specific surface area, for example, even if the component is sufficiently resistant to the solvent used to remove sea components, the effects of exposure to the solvent are ignored. There are cases where it is not possible.
- This technique can make uniform the processing conditions such as the temperature and the concentration of the solvent by minimizing the variation of the island component diameter. This effect can prevent partial deterioration of the island components. For this reason, there is a synergistic effect from the viewpoint of improving the quality stability described above.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention is an important requirement from the viewpoint of simplifying the determination of post-processing conditions such as sea removal treatment because there are two or more island component diameters.
- the surface characteristics and the like are substantially borne by the island component (nanofiber) having a diameter of 10 to 1000 nm arranged as one component. Therefore, from the viewpoint of quality stability, the island component diameter variation is preferably as small as possible, and 1.0 to 15.0% is a preferable range. Also, considering the application to high-density sports using high-density nanofibers for high-performance sports clothing and applications requiring high-precision homogeneity for high-precision polishing, The variation is more preferably 1.0 to 7.0%.
- FIG. 1 shows a state where island components A (1 in FIG. 1) and island components B (2 in FIG. 1) having large fiber diameters are scattered in the sea component (3 in FIG. 1). Yes.
- island component diameter is evaluated by the above-described method for the cross section of such a fiber, two island component diameter distributions (4 and 6 in FIG. 2) as illustrated in FIG. 2 are obtained.
- the group of island components having diameters that fall within the range (distribution width) of each distribution is defined as “one type”.
- this island component diameter distribution is as shown in FIG.
- the presence of two or more means that “two or more types of island components having different diameters exist in the same fiber cross section” as used in the present invention.
- the distribution width of island component diameters here (8, 9 in FIG. 2) is a range of ⁇ 30% of the peak value (5, 7 in FIG. 2) having the largest number of island components in the group. means.
- the diameter of one kind of island component is distributed in the range of the peak value ⁇ 20%.
- the distribution is in the range of the peak value ⁇ 10%.
- the distribution of the island component A and the island component B may be a continuous distribution with peak values approaching each other.
- the distribution of the island component diameter is discontinuous from the viewpoint of preventing the processing state of the solvent from changing between the island component with a small number of existence and the other island components, and preventing the deteriorated island component from being mixed in the fiber product. Yes, it is preferable to have an independent distribution.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention it is important that island components having two or more different diameters as described above exist in the same cross section of the composite fiber. This is because, in the conventional technique using the post-mixing represented by Patent Document 1, when the state of the cross section of the fabric is seen, the number of nanofibers (or microfibers) is partially biased everywhere. It will end up. As a result of intensive studies on this point, the present inventors have found that the above-described problems of the prior art can be solved by employing the sea-island composite fiber of the present invention.
- the reason why the problem can be solved is that, in the case of the sea-island composite fiber of the present invention, the composite form of the sea-island composite fiber, that is, the position of each island component is fixed and woven and knitted into a fabric.
- the fibers (island components) contract and the island components are physically constrained. For this reason, even after the sea component is removed, the positional relationship between the fiber having a large fiber diameter and the fiber having a small fiber diameter hardly changes. Therefore, it is possible to greatly suppress the unevenness of the fiber, which has been a problem of the prior art.
- fibers having a large fiber diameter are evenly distributed throughout the fabric.
- a fiber having a large fiber diameter forms a skeleton of the fabric and bears mechanical properties.
- the nanofibers are evenly distributed throughout the fabric. For this reason, the supple texture, denseness, water absorption, wiping performance and polishing performance unique to the nanofiber are uniform throughout the fabric, and the quality stability is excellent.
- the voids woven by the nanofibers are homogeneous, characteristics such as water retention performance and sustained release performance can be expressed.
- the post-mixing process can be omitted greatly.
- Mixing two types of fibers having different characteristics in the post-mixing process results in different stresses applied to the fibers in the process. For this reason, the risk of thread breakage and the like in the fiber mixing process is attached.
- the fiber elongation (plastic) deformation behavior differs because the fiber mixing process is performed at room temperature.
- the effect on thread breakage is limited due to the mismatch of the softening points.
- the shrinkage rate is different for each fiber.
- the fibers are basically passed through a post-process such as weaving or sea removal as a single body. Furthermore, since there is no difference in the history in the yarn making process, there is no difference in shrinkage behavior. For this reason, the subject mentioned above is suppressed significantly and the permeability (post-processing property) in post-processing improves greatly.
- the purpose of the sea-island fiber of the present invention is to obtain a blended yarn having excellent functions and mechanical properties unique to nanofibers or a fabric made of the blended yarn. It is necessary that two or more types of island components having different diameters exist in the same cross section. In order to make the effects of the present invention more prominent, it is preferable that the difference in the diameter of island components (groups) existing in the same cross section (island component diameter difference) is 300 nm or more. This is because, as described above, a fiber having a large fiber diameter is expected to substantially play a role of the mechanical properties of the fabric. For this reason, it is preferable that the fiber has a clearly high rigidity as compared with a fiber having a small fiber diameter.
- the cross-sectional secondary moment when attention is paid to the cross-sectional secondary moment that is an index of the rigidity of the material, the cross-sectional secondary moment is proportional to the fourth power of the fiber diameter.
- the island component diameter difference is 300 nm or more, a fiber having a large fiber diameter is substantially responsible for the mechanical properties of the fabric with respect to a fiber having a small fiber diameter.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention since at least one kind of island component has a nano-order diameter, it is preferable to consider the change in the processing speed with respect to the solvent accompanying the increase in the specific surface area. From such a viewpoint, the island component diameter difference is preferably set to 3000 nm or less.
- seawater removal treatment conditions can be easily set. Further, it is also preferable from the viewpoint of suppressing an excessive load from being applied to the island component having a large diameter in the yarn making process or the like.
- the island component diameter difference is more preferably 2000 nm or less, and the island component diameter difference is particularly preferably 1000 nm or less.
- the island component diameter difference means a difference between the peak values of island components (5 and 7 in FIG. 2) in the distribution as shown in FIG.
- sea-island fiber of the present invention a state (mixed yarn) in which fibers having a small fiber diameter (substantially nanofibers) are close to fibers having a large fiber diameter, which was difficult in the prior art, by a method described later. Can be produced.
- Such a state is preferable from the viewpoint of the homogeneity of the properties of the fabric as described above. Furthermore, when the orientation directions of the nanofibers are aligned, an effect that the texture is further improved is exhibited. Further, it is close to a fiber having a large fiber diameter that is excellent in mechanical properties, and is in a quasi-entangled state.
- the island component having a large diameter and the island component having a small diameter are regularly arranged, and in the mixed yarn obtained therefrom or a fabric made of the mixed yarn, an additional color development property is improved. It was found to exert an effect.
- This is a preferable characteristic in that one of the difficulties in developing a fiber product made of nanofibers for use in clothing is eliminated.
- it has an important meaning in that it can be applied to a surface material in high-performance sports clothing or women's clothing in which fabrics rich in coloring properties are preferred. That is, since the fiber diameter of the nanofiber is equivalent to the visible light wavelength, the light is irregularly reflected or passes through the nanofiber surface, and the fabric made of the nanofiber is white blurred and lacks color development. It was.
- the sea-island fiber of the present invention it is possible to generate a mixed yarn in which a fiber having a small fiber diameter is entangled with a fiber having a large fiber diameter due to regular arrangement of the island components. For this reason, even if the nanofibers existing in the surface layer do not contribute to the color development, fibers having a large fiber diameter bear the color development. For this reason, even in the state of the mixed yarn, the color developability is greatly improved. This can be seen as a clear difference in the case of a fabric.
- An island component A having a diameter of 10 to 1000 nm has an island component A having a diameter of 1000 to 4000 nm in order to obtain a blended yarn having the above-described color development property and the unique function of nanofibers or a fabric made of this blended yarn. It is preferably arranged around component B.

The distance between the island components was measured at 100 points extracted at random, and the distance between island components (distance between island components CV%) was obtained from the average value and standard deviation of the distance between island components. . When the distance between 100 or more island components was not observable in the cross section of one composite fiber, the images were taken so that the distance between 100 island components in total could be confirmed from the cross sections of many composite fibers.
- the island component distance variation is a value calculated as (standard deviation of the distance between island components / average value of the distance between island components) ⁇ 100 (%), and is rounded off to the second decimal place.
- the same evaluation was performed for 10 images, and the simple number average of the evaluation results of the 10 images was used as the variation in the distance between island components of the present invention.

- the polymer A and the polymer B are weighed by the pressure loss caused by the restriction provided in each metering hole.
- a guideline for the design of this diaphragm is that the pressure loss is 0.1 MPa or more.
- the design in order to prevent the pressure loss from becoming excessive and the member from being distorted, it is preferable that the design be 30.0 MPa or less. This pressure loss is determined by the polymer flow rate and viscosity per metering hole.

- the distribution groove 16 is preferably provided with a plurality of distribution holes of two or more holes.
- a plurality of distribution plates 13 are laminated so that each polymer is partially joined and distributed individually. If the flow path design is repeated such as a plurality of distribution holes-distribution grooves-a plurality of distribution holes, the polymer flow can flow into other distribution holes even if the distribution holes are partially blocked. .
- the effect of providing this distribution groove is great in that the polymer that has passed through various flow paths, that is, the polymer that has obtained the thermal history, joins a plurality of times to suppress viscosity variation.
- the downstream distribution groove is arranged at an angle of 1 to 179 ° in the circumferential direction with respect to the upstream distribution groove, so that different distribution grooves are provided.
- the structure in which the polymers flowing in from the sea are merged is preferable in that the polymers that have received different thermal histories and the like are merged multiple times, and is effective in controlling the sea-island composite cross section.

- the island packing density referred to here represents the number of islands per unit area, and the larger the value, the more the sea island fiber can be produced.
- the island filling density referred to here is a value obtained by dividing the number of islands discharged from one discharge hole by the area of the discharge introduction hole. This island filling density can be changed by each discharge hole.
- the cross-sectional shape of the composite fiber and the cross-sectional shape of the island component can be controlled by the arrangement of the distribution holes 17 of the polymer A and the polymer B in the distribution plate 13 immediately above the discharge plate 14. That is, if the polymer A / distribution hole 17- (a) and the polymer B / distribution hole 17- (b) (FIG. 7- (a) to FIG. 7- (d)) are exemplified, A composite polymer stream that can be made into fibers can be formed.

- the hole diameter is enlarged.
- the distribution plate of the composite base used in the present invention is constituted by a fine flow path, and the discharge amount of each distribution hole is regulated by the pressure loss due to the distribution hole 17 in principle.
- the inflow amounts of the polymer A and the polymer B are uniformly controlled by the measuring plate, the pressure is uniform in the fine channel formed in the distribution plate. For this reason, for example, when there is a distribution hole 17- (c) having a partially enlarged hole diameter as shown in FIG.
- the enlarged distribution hole 17 is obtained in order to earn (uniformize) the pressure loss of that part.
- the discharge amount of-(c) automatically increases as compared with the distribution hole 17- (a).
- the polymer B / distribution hole 17- (b) may be regularly arranged. The principle of principle is the same even when the hole arrangement illustrated in FIG. 7B is a hexagonal lattice.

- a plurality of polymer A / distribution holes 17- (a) are arranged in advance at positions close to each other without using the enlarged distribution holes.
- the polymer A components are fused together to form an island component having an enlarged diameter by utilizing the ballast effect when discharged from the distribution holes. In this method, since the diameters of the distribution holes can all be the same, it is easy to predict the pressure loss, which is preferable from the viewpoint of simplification of the die design.
- the viscosity ratio of polymer A and polymer B is 0.1 to 20.0. It is preferable.
- the expansion range of the island component is basically controlled by the arrangement of the distribution holes, the melt viscosity of the polymer A and the polymer B at that time is merged and reduced in the cross-sectional direction by the reduction holes 19 of the discharge plate.

- the melt viscosity ratio means a value obtained by measuring the melt viscosity of each polymer individually, calculating the viscosity ratio as polymer A / polymer B, and rounding off the second decimal place of the value.
- the composition is basically different between the polymer A and the polymer B, and therefore the melting point and heat resistance are different. Therefore, ideally, it is preferable to change the melting temperature for each polymer and perform spinning, but in order to control the melting temperature individually for each polymer, a special spinning device is required. Therefore, spinning is generally performed by setting the spinning temperature to a certain temperature, and considering the simplicity of setting the spinning conditions (temperature, etc.), the polymer A / polymer B is 0.5 to 5.0. Is particularly preferable. Note that the melt viscosity of the above polymers can be controlled relatively freely by adjusting the molecular weight and copolymerization component even in the case of the same type of polymer. Therefore, in the present invention, the melt viscosity is determined by polymer combination or spinning. It is an index for setting conditions.

This is because the composite polymer flow discharged from the distribution plate is greatly reduced in the cross-sectional direction by the reduction holes. At that time, in the outer layer portion of the composite polymer flow, in addition to being largely bent, it is subjected to shearing with the hole wall. Looking at the details of the pore wall-polymer flow outer layer, the flow velocity distribution may be inclined such that the flow velocity at the contact surface with the pore wall is slow due to shear stress and the flow velocity increases toward the inner layer.

In the sea-island fiber obtained in Example 10, a core-sheath structure cross section was formed in which island components A having an island component diameter of 490 nm were regularly arranged around island components B having an island component diameter of 4900 nm.
- the island component A and the island component B were largely different from each other in diameter, so that the island component A was slightly removed, but the level was satisfactory.
- the island component B after sea removal was observed, in the same manner as in Example 9, the island component B had innumerable concave portions considered to be discharge histories.
- regular arrangement at the sea-island fiber stage was also helped, and the innumerable island component A was fixed on the surface of the island component B.
- Example 1 there was a tendency for the slime feeling peculiar to nanofibers to be weakened, but it was a level with no problem.
- an unstretched fiber spun at a spinning speed of 1500 m / min using a normal base of ⁇ 0.3 (L / D 1.5) -12hole using PET1 used as an island component
- a draw ratio of 2.5 times was drawn to obtain a single yarn made of PET 1 having 40 dtex-12 filaments.
- the aforementioned sea-island fibers and single yarn were combined and supplied to a roller equipped with a winder to obtain post-mixed yarn.
- the post-mixing process was performed at a low speed of 200 m / min, but a single yarn often wound around the supply roller or the guide roller of the winder (post-mixed yarn physical properties: fineness 90 dtex, strength 2.
- Comparative Example 2 A sea island mouthpiece (one island component plate: 300 islands, one sea component plate) provided with a retention portion and a back pressure applying portion for each component nozzle described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 8-158144 All were carried out in accordance with Example 1 except that the composite ratio of sea / island components was 50/50.
- Comparative Example 2 when the composite ratio was 20/80, a plurality of island components were fused and it was difficult to form an island component of 1000 nm or less, so the island ratio was reduced to 50%. Reduced and implemented.
- the island component since the island component has a low homogeneity in the cross section of the sea island, there was a single thread flow (cut) during spinning and a drawing process of four spindles, and the spinning performance was low.
- the evaluation results of the sea-island fibers obtained in Comparative Example 2 are as shown in Table 4. However, when evaluating the distribution of the island component diameter, there are a plurality of peak values, and these distributions are continuous. It had a very wide distribution width. Moreover, the island component obtained was barely less than 1000 nm.
- Example 11 Except that the spinning speed was 3000 m / min and the draw ratio was 3.0 times, everything was carried out according to Example 1. From Example 11, in the sea-island fiber of the present invention, due to the regular arrangement of the island components in the fiber cross section, the yarn-making property is high, and the total draft (spinning + drawing) is increased 1.5 times compared to Example 1. In this case, it was found that the yarn could be produced without breakage as in Example 1. Considering that yarn breakage was confirmed in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, which are the same total draft as in Example 1, this high yarn forming property is one of the excellent effects of the present invention. I understand. The results are shown in Table 5. In Example 11, the composite spinning had mechanical characteristics equivalent to those in Example 1 despite the relatively severe spinning conditions. all right. The results are shown in Table 5.
- Example 12 also had the same spinning performance as in Example 1, and could be produced without any problems such as single yarn breakage in the spinning process and the drawing process.
- Example 12 when the number of filaments is increased while the discharge amount is constant, the single yarn fineness of the sea-island fibers decreases, so that the yarn-making property tends to deteriorate.
- Example 11 it can be seen that due to the effect that the island component A and the island component B are regularly arranged, a stable spinning property is ensured even with a fineness of 1/6 or less compared to Example 1. The results are shown in Table 5.
- Example 13 The arrangement of the distribution plate is based on the arrangement shown in FIG. 7- (d), the distribution hole per discharge hole is 1000 holes (hole diameter: ⁇ 0.2 mm), and the distribution holes 4 for the inner island component B are used.

- Example 15 The sea-island fibers collected in Example 15 exhibited good yarn-making properties even when the sea component was PLA because N6 (island component) regularly arranged bears stress. Furthermore, even when the sea component was PLA, the cross-sectional configuration, homogeneity, and post-processability were equivalent to those of Example 1. The results are shown in Table 6.
- Example 16 The island component is polybutylene terephthalate (PBT melt viscosity: 120 Pa ⁇ s), the sea component is polylactic acid (PLA melt viscosity: 110 Pa ⁇ s) used in Example 15, the spinning temperature is 255 ° C., and the spinning speed is 1300 m / min. Spinned. Further, the draw ratio was 3.2 times, and all other conditions were carried out according to Example 1.

Abstract
Description
このような課題に対し、特許文献1では、平均繊維径が50~1500nmの極細繊維(ナノファイバー)を発生し得る海島繊維と単糸繊維繊度が1.0~8.0dtex(2700~9600nm程度)の汎用繊維とを後混繊して利用する技術が提案されている。
(1)2種類以上の異なる径を有する島成分が同一繊維断面内に存在する海島繊維において、少なくとも1種類の島成分の径が10~1000nm、径バラツキが1.0~20.0%であることを特徴とする海島繊維
(2)当該海島繊維において、島成分径差が300~3000nmであることを特徴とする(1)に記載の海島繊維
(3)島成分径が10~1000nmである島成分Aが、1000~4000nmの径を有した島成分Bの周りに配されたことを特徴する(1)または(2)に記載の海島繊維
(4)(1)から(3)のいずれかに記載された海島繊維の海成分を除去することで得られる混繊糸
(5)(1)から(4)のいずれかの繊維が少なくとも1部に使われた繊維製品
である。
また、本発明の海島繊維では、海島繊維の段階で、既に繊維径が異なる2種類以上の径を有した島成分が同一断面内に存在しているということが重要である。この効果により、後混繊の必要なく、本発明の海島繊維をそのまま織偏し、利用することができる。このような工業的な効果のほかに、従来技術の課題であった“極細繊維の偏り”による布帛特性の変動を予防するといった観点で非常に有効な効果を奏でる。
本発明で言う海島繊維とは、2種類以上のポリマーからなるものである。ここで言う海島(断面)とは、あるポリマーからなる島成分が、他方のポリマーからなる海成分の中に点在する構造を有している繊維を意味する。本発明の海島繊維は、繊維軸に対して垂直の繊維(複合)断面において、少なくとも1種類の島成分の径が10~1000nm、径バラツキが1.0~20.0%であることを第一の要件とし、第二の要件として、2種類以上の径が異なる島成分が同一繊維断面内に存在することを特徴としている。
すなわち、海島繊維からなるマルチフィラメントをエポキシ樹脂などの包埋剤にて包埋し、この横断面を透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)で150本以上の島成分が観察できる倍率として画像を撮影する。1本の複合繊維の断面において、150本以上の島成分がない場合には、多数の複合繊維の断面から合計で150本の島成分を確認できるように撮影すればよい。この際、金属染色を施せば、島成分のコントラストをはっきりさせることができる。繊維断面が撮影された各画像から無作為に抽出した150本の島成分の島成分径を測定する。ここで言う島成分の径とは、2次元的に撮影された画像から繊維軸に対して垂直方向の断面を切断面とし、この切断面に2点以上の最も多くの点で外接する真円の径のことを意味する。また、島成分径の値に関しては、nm単位で小数点第1位まで測定し、小数点以下を四捨五入するものである。
また、径バラツキ(島成分径バラツキ)とは、島成分径の測定結果をもとに島成分径バラツキ(島成分径CV%)=(島成分径の標準偏差/島成分径の平均値)×100(%)として算出される値であり、小数点第2位以下は四捨五入するものである。
以上の操作を、同様に撮影した10画像について行い、10画像の評価結果の単純な数平均値を島成分径および島成分径バラツキとした。
一方、本発明の目的の一つである従来にはない高機能を有した混繊糸あるいはそれからなる布帛を得るためには、ナノオーダーの繊維の有するしなやかさ、吸水性、および払拭性能等といった機能が必要である。このため、本発明の海島繊維では、少なくとも1種類の島成分が1000nm以下の径を有している必要がある。ナノファイバーの機能をより顕著化するという観点では、少なくとも1種類の島成分の径が、700nm以下とすることが好ましい。さらに後加工工程における工程通過性、脱海条件設定の簡易性、繊維製品の取り扱い性までを考慮すると、島成分径の下限は、100nm以上であることが好適である。このため、本発明の海島繊維では、少なくとも1種類の島成分が100~700nmであることがより好ましい範囲として挙げることができる。
ここで言う島成分径の分布幅(図2の8、9)とは、各島成分の群の中で最も存在数が多いピーク値(図2の5、7)の±30%の範囲を意味する。当該分布幅においては、前述した繊維製品の品位を向上させるといった観点から、1種類の島成分の径は、ピーク値±20%の範囲で分布していることが好ましい。さらに脱海処理等の後加工条件の設定の簡易化するという観点から、ピーク値±10%の範囲で分布していることがより好ましい。また、島成分Aと島成分Bの分布は、ピーク値が接近し、連続した分布をなす場合もある。しかしながら、存在数の少ない島成分と他の島成分とで溶剤の処理状態が変化し、劣化した島成分が繊維製品に混在することを予防するという観点から、島成分径の分布は不連続であり、独立した分布をなすことが好ましい。
ここで言う島成分間距離バラツキとは、前述した島成分径および島成分径バラツキと同様の方法で、海島繊維の断面を2次元的に撮影する。この画像から、図3中の10に示すように、近接する2つの同じ径を有した島成分の中心を結んだ直線の距離を測定する。この直線の距離を島成分間距離とし、無作為に抽出した100箇所について測定し、島成分間距離の平均値および標準偏差から、島成分間距離バラツキ(島成分間距離CV%)を求めた。1本の複合繊維の断面で100箇所以上の島成分間距離が観察できない場合には、多数の複合繊維の断面から合計で100箇所の島成分間距離を確認できるように撮影した。島成分間距離バラツキとは、(島成分間距離の標準偏差/島成分間距離の平均値)×100(%)として算出される値であり、小数点第2位以下は四捨五入するものである。また、これまでの断面形態の評価と同様に、10画像について、同様の評価を行い、この10画像の評価結果の単純な数平均を本発明の島成分間距離バラツキとした。
本発明の海島繊維から発生させる混繊糸あるいは混繊糸かなる布帛の発色性を向上させるという観点では、前述した島成分間距離バラツキは小さい方が好適であり、1.0~10.0%とすることがより好ましい。
産業資材用途、例えば、ワイピングクロスや研磨布としての使用を考えた場合には、加重下で引っ張られながら対象物に擦りつけられることになる。このため、強度が1.0cN/dtex以上、伸度10%以上とすれば、拭き取り中などに混繊糸が切れて脱落などすることなくなるため、好適である。
本発明の海島繊維は、2種類以上のポリマーからなる海島繊維を製糸することにより製造可能である。ここで、海島繊維を製糸する方法としては、溶融紡糸による海島複合紡糸が生産性を高めるという観点から好適である。当然、溶液紡糸などして、本発明の海島繊維を得ることも可能である。ただし、本発明の海島複合紡糸を製糸する方法としては、繊維径および断面形状の制御に優れるという観点で、海島複合口金を用いる方法とすることが好ましい。
図4(a)~(c)は、本発明に用いる海島複合口金の一例を模式的に説明するための説明図であって、図4(a)は海島複合口金を構成する主要部分の正断面図であり、図4(b)は分配プレートの一部の横断面図、図4(c)は吐出プレートの一部の横断面図である。図5は吐出プレートの一部の正断面図であり、図6は分配プレートの平面図、図7(a)から図7(d)は本発明に係る分配プレートの一部の拡大図であり、それぞれが一つの吐出孔に関わる溝および孔として記載したものである。
また、本発明の海島繊維の製造方法では、基本的にポリマーAおよびポリマーBで組成が異なるため、融点や耐熱性が異なる。このため、理想的には各々のポリマーで溶融温度を変更し、紡糸することが好適ではあるが、溶融温度をポリマー毎に個別に制御するためには、特殊な紡糸装置を必要となる。よって、紡糸温度をある温度に設定して、紡糸することが一般であり、この紡糸条件(温度など)の設定の簡易性を考えれば、ポリマーA/ポリマーBは、0.5~5.0とすることが特に好ましい範囲である。なお、以上のポリマーの溶融粘度に関しては、同種のポリマーであっても、分子量や共重合成分を調整することで、比較的自由に制御できるため、本発明においては、溶融粘度をポリマー組み合わせや紡糸条件設定の指標にしている。
実施例および比較例については、下記の評価を行った。
チップ状のポリマーを真空乾燥機によって、水分率200ppm以下とし、東洋精機製キャピログラフ1Bによって、歪速度を段階的に変更して、溶融粘度を測定した。なお、測定温度は紡糸温度と同様にし、実施例あるいは比較例には、1216s-1の溶融粘度を記載している。ちなみに、加熱炉にサンプルを投入してから測定開始までを5分とし、窒素雰囲気下で測定を行った。
海島繊維の100mの重量を測定し、100倍することで繊度を算出した。これを10回繰り返し、その単純平均値の小数点第2位を四捨五入した値を繊度とした。
海島繊維をオリエンテック社製引張試験機 テンシロン UCT-100型を用い、試料長20cm、引張速度100%/minの条件で応力-歪曲線を測定する。破断時の荷重を読みとり、その荷重を初期繊度で除することで強度を算出し、破断時の歪を読みとり、試料長で除した値を100倍することで、伸度を算出した。いずれの値も、この操作を水準毎に5回繰り返し、得られた結果の単純平均値を求め、強度は、小数点第2位を四捨五入した値であり、伸度は、小数点第1位を四捨五入した値である。
海島繊維をエポキシ樹脂で包埋し、Reichert社製FC・4E型クライオセクショニングシステムで凍結し、ダイヤモンドナイフを具備したReichert-Nissei ultracut N(ウルトラミクロトーム)で切削した後、その切削面を(株)日立製作所製 H-7100FA型透過型電子顕微鏡(TEM)にて島成分が150本以上観察できる倍率で撮影した。1本の複合繊維の断面で150本以上の島成分がない場合には、多数の複合繊維の断面から合計で150本の島成分を確認できるように撮影した。この画像から無作為に選定した150本の島成分を抽出し、画像処理ソフト(WINROOF)を用いて全ての島成分径を測定し、平均値および標準偏差を求めた。これらの結果から下記式を基づき島成分径CV%を算出した。
島成分径バラツキ(CV%)=(標準偏差/平均値)×100
以上の値は全て10ヶ所の各写真について測定を行い、10ヶ所の平均値とし、島成分径は、nm単位で小数点第1位まで測定し、小数点以下を四捨五入するものであり、島成分径バラツキは小数点第2位以下を四捨五入するものである。島成分径および島成分径バラツキは、この「平均値」で代表する。
島成分の中心を島成分の外接円の中心とした場合に、島成分距離とは、図3中の10および図4中の11に示すように、近接する2つの島成分の中心間の距離として定義される値である。この評価は、前述した島成分径と同様の方法で、海島繊維の断面を2次元的に撮影し、無作為に抽出した100箇所について、島成分距離を測定する。1本の複合繊維の断面で100箇所以上の島成分間距離が観察できない場合には、多数の複合繊維の断面から合計で100箇所の島成分間距離を確認できるように撮影した。この島成分距離バラツキとは、島成分距離の平均値および標準偏差から、島成分距離バラツキ(島成分距離CV%)=(島成分距離の標準偏差/島成分の平均値)×100(%)として小数点第2位以下は四捨五入して算出する。この値を同様に撮影した10画像について評価し、10画像の結果の単純な数平均を島成分距離バラツキとして評価した。島成分間距離は、この「平均値」で代表する。
各紡糸条件で採取した海島繊維からなる編地を海成分が溶解する溶剤で満たされた脱海浴(浴比100)にて海成分を99%以上溶解除去した。
極細繊維の脱落の有無を確認するため、下記の評価を行った。
脱海処理した溶剤を100ml採取し、この溶剤を保留粒子径0.5μmのガラス繊維ろ紙に通す。ろ紙の処理前後の乾燥重量差から極細繊維の脱落の有無を下記の4段階で評価した。
◎(脱落なし):重量差が3mg未満
○(脱落少) :重量差が3mg以上7mg未満
△(脱落あり):重量差が7mg以上10mg未満
×(脱落多) :重量差が10mg以上。
得られた繊維を筒編地とし、海成分を除去可能な溶剤にて、海成分を99%以上除去(浴比1:100)した混繊糸からなる筒編地サンプルを25℃×55%RHの雰囲気下に24時間以上放置した後に、下記の評価基準にて、5人の試験者がナノファイバー独特のヌメリ感を下記の4段階で官能評価した。5人の官能評価結果を平均し、評価した布帛の風合い評価結果とした。
◎(優良):ヌメリ感を強く感じ、編地全体が滑らかで風合いに優れている。
○(良) :ヌメリ感を感じ、風合いが良い。
△(可) :ヌメリ感があるが、部分的にシャリ感や引掛り感を感じる。
×(不可):ヌメリ感がなく、全体的にシャリ感や引掛り感じを感じる。
得られた繊維を筒編地とし、海成分が除去可能な溶剤にて、海成分を99%以上除去(浴比1:100)した混繊糸からなる筒編地を住友化学(株)製分散染料スミカロンBlack S-BB 10%owf・酢酸 0.5cc/l・酢酸ソーダ 0.2 g/lからなる浴比1:30の130℃の水溶液中で60分間染色を行った後、常法に従い、・ハイドロサルファイト 2g/l・苛性ソーダ 2g/l・非イオン活性剤(サンデットG-900) 2g/lからなる80℃の水溶液中で20分間還元洗浄を行い、水洗、乾燥した。得られた染色後の筒編地布(15%減量品)を、分光測色計(ミノルタCM-3700D)により測定径8mmφ、光源D65,視野10°の条件でL*値を3回測定し、その平均値Lave *を下記の基準にて、3段階評価した。
△(可) :14以上16未満
×(不可):16以上。
島成分として、ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET1 溶融粘度:160Pa・s)と、海成分として、5-ナトリウムスルホイソフタル酸8.0モル%共重合したPET(共重合PET1 溶融粘度:95Pa・s)を290℃で別々に溶融後、計量し、図5に示した本発明の複合口金が組み込まれた紡糸パックに流入させ、吐出孔から複合ポリマー流を吐出した。なお、吐出プレート直上の分配プレートには、1つの吐出孔当たり島成分用として、吐出孔1孔当り合計790の分配孔が穿設されており、内720孔が通常の分配孔17-(a)(孔径:φ0.20mm)、70孔が拡大分配孔17-(c)(孔径:φ0.65mm)とし、孔の配列パターンとしては、図7-(a)の配列とした。図6の21に示している海成分用の環状溝には円周方向1°毎に分配孔が穿設されたものを使用した。また、吐出導入孔長は5mm、縮小孔の角度は60°、吐出孔径0.5mm、吐出孔長/吐出孔径は1.5のものである。海/島成分の複合比は、20/80とし、吐出された複合ポリマー流を冷却固化後油剤付与し、紡糸速度1500m/minで巻き取り、200dtex-15フィラメント(総吐出量30g/min)の未延伸繊維を採取した。巻き取った未延伸繊維を90℃と130℃に加熱したローラ間で延伸速度800m/minにとし、4.0倍延伸を行った。得られた海島繊維は、50dtex-15フィラメントであった。なお、本発明の海島繊維は、後述の通り断面構成は径が大きい島成分と径が小さい島成分が規則性を持って配置されたものであるため、10錘の延伸機で4.5時間サンプリングをおこなったが、糸切れ錘は0錘と延伸性に優れたものであった。
該海島繊維の力学特性は、強度3.7cN/dtex、伸度30%であった。
また、該海島繊維の断面を観察したところ、径が小さい島成分(島成分A)は490nm、島成分径バラツキは5.3%、径が大きい島成分(島成分B)は3000nmであった。これらの島成分径分布を取ると、図8のようになっており、島成分Aと島成分Bが非常に狭い分布幅で存在していることがわかった。
実施例1で採取された海島繊維を90℃に加熱した1重量%の水酸化ナトリウム水溶液にて、海成分を99%以上脱海した。実施例1の海島繊維は、前述の通り島成分が均等に配置される(島成分バラツキが小さい)ために、低濃度のアルカリ水溶液でも、脱海処理が効率的に進行した。このため、島成分を余計に劣化させることなく、脱海時の極細繊維の脱落はなかった(脱落判定:◎)。また、脱海後の混繊糸の断面を観察すると、島成分Bの周りに島成分Aが均等に存在するものであり、島成分Aあるいは島成分Bの存在数に部分的な偏りがないものであった。このため、この混繊糸からなる筒編地は、張り、腰があるにも関わらず、ナノファイバー独特のヌメリ感を有したものであり、表面も非常に滑らかなものであった(風合い評価:◎)。また、この筒編地を染色すると、優れた発色性を有していることが分かった(発色性評価:○)。結果を表1に示す。
海/島成分の複合比を30/70(実施例2)、50/50(実施例3)、70/30(実施例4)に変更したこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。これらの海島繊維の評価結果は、表1に示す通りであるが、実施例1と同様に製糸性および後加工性に優れるものであり、混繊糸の断面においても、島成分Aあるいは島成分Bの存在数に部分的な偏りがないものであった。風合い評価に関しては、実施例3および実施例4において、微弱な引掛り感があったものの、問題の無いレベルであった。
実施例1で用いた分配プレートを用い、総吐出量12.5g/minで海/島複合比を80/20として紡糸し、得られた未延伸繊維を延伸倍率3.5倍で延伸したこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。ちなみに、実施例5では、総吐出量を低下させているにも関わらず、実施例1と同等の製糸性を有しており、これは、島成分が均等かつ規則的に配置されている効果と考えられる。
実施例5で得られた海島繊維の断面では、170nmと非常に縮小された径を有しているにも関わらず、径バラツキが7.0%とバラツキが小さいものであった島成分Aが島成分Bの間に規則正しく配置されていた。実施例1と比較すると島成分Aの径が大きく縮小されているため、脱海時に影響を受けたと考えられるナノファイバーが微量脱落していたが、問題がないレベルであった。結果を表2に示す。
実施例1で用いた分配プレートを用い、総吐出量35.0g/minで海/島複合比を20/80として紡糸し、得られた未延伸繊維を延伸倍率3.0倍で延伸したこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
結果、脱海後の混繊糸の断面観察では、3800nmの径を有した島成分Bの周りに島成分Aが均等に存在することが確認された。実施例6の海島繊維から得られる混繊糸は、非常に優れた発色性を有しており、実施例1と比較しても、更に白っぽさが低下し、非常に深色な布帛を得ることができた。結果を表2に示す。
分配プレートの孔配置を図7-(a)に示したものとし、吐出孔1孔当り合計415孔の島成分用の分配孔が穿設されているものを用いたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。なお、実施例7で用いた分配プレートには、島成分Aの分配孔17-(a)(孔径:φ0.20mm)が410孔、島成分Bの拡大分配孔17-(c)(孔径:φ0.80mm)が5孔穿設されている。実施例7で得られた海島繊維には、島成分径4500nmの島成分Bの周りに島成分径560nmの島成分Aが規則的に配置されているものであった。実施例7の海島繊維から得られる混繊糸は、実施例1と比較して、張り、腰が強く、若干ナノファイバー独特のヌメリ感が低下したが、問題のないレベルであった。結果を表2に示す。
分配プレートの孔配置を図7-(b)に示したものとした。実施例8で用いた分配プレートには、吐出孔1孔当り合計1550孔の島成分用の分配孔が穿設されており、内島成分Aの分配孔17-(a)(孔径:φ0.15mm)は1500孔、島成分Bの拡大分配孔17-(c)(孔径:φ0.8mm)は50孔としている。実施例8で得られた海島繊維断面では、島成分Aと島成分Bの島成分径が10以上異なるものであったが、島成分B間に島成分Aが規則的に配置されたものであり、脱海後の混繊糸においては、島成分B間に島成分Aが充填され、且つ実施例1と比較して島成分A(ナノファイバー)からなる層が分厚く、布帛全体が柔軟性にとんだものであった。結果を表3に示す。
分配プレートの孔配置を図7-(c)に示したものとした。実施例9で用いた分配プレートには、拡大分配孔は穿設せず、吐出孔1孔当り合計1000孔の島成分用の分配孔(孔径:φ0.2mm)が穿設されたものであり、この分配プレートを用いたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。なお、実施例9で用いた分配プレートでは、図7-(c)に示す通り、部分的に4孔の島成分用分配孔を近接して穿設している。このため、分配プレートからドットで吐出されたポリマーは弾性的な緩和を起こすことで、隣り合った島成分と融着し、結果として、径の大きい島成分(島成分B)を形成するため、本発明の要件を満たした海島繊維となった。また、脱海後に島成分Bを良く観察してみると、島成分Bは吐出状況の履歴により、断面で見ると四つの凹部と有した、いわゆる四葉形状となっており、この凹部に島成分Aが固定された構造を有していた。このような構造になると、島成分Aと島成分Bが一体になるため、ヌメリ感の中に滑るような感覚を伴う布帛となり、島成分の断面形態により、布帛特性を制御できることがわかった。結果を表3に示す。
実施例9で用いた分配プレートの設計思想を利用し、拡大分配孔は穿設せず、吐出孔1孔当りの島成分用分配孔(孔径:φ0.2mm)は1000孔としたまま、グループの中心部に島成分孔を100孔近接させて穿設し、その周りに残り900孔を規則的に配置した孔配置とした分配プレートを利用して、実施例1の条件に従い、実施した。
実施例10で得られた海島繊維では、島成分径4900nmの島成分Bの周りに島成分径490nmの島成分Aが規則的に配置された芯鞘構造断面を形成していた。脱海に関しては、島成分Aと島成分Bの島成分径が大きく異なるために、島成分Aの脱落が若干確認されたが、問題のないレベルであった。脱海後の島成分Bを観察すると、実施例9と同様に、吐出時の履歴と考えられる無数の凹部分を有したものであった。この混繊糸においては、海島繊維段階での規則的な配置も手伝い、島成分Bの表面に無数の島成分Aが固定された構造を有していた。実施例1と比較すると、ナノファイバー独特のヌメリ感が弱まる傾向にあったが、問題の無いレベルであった。一方、島成分Bに微細な凹部が存在すること、および鞘部分に配置された島成分A間の空隙により、擬似的な多孔構造を形成することの相乗効果により、光が表層で反射することなく、吸収されるため、発色性評価は、非常に優れ、深色の布帛が得られていた。結果を表3に示す。
まず、後混繊するための海島繊維を得るために、特開2001-192924号公報で記載される従来公知のパイプ型海島複合口金(吐出孔1孔当たり島数:500)を使用し、紡糸条件などは、実施例1に従い、製糸した。紡糸に関しては、糸切れ等も無く、問題がなかったものの、延伸工程では、断面の不均一性に起因する糸切れが4.5時間のサンプリング中に2錘で見られた。また、製糸後の海島繊維の断面を観察すると、島比率が高すぎた(島比率:80%)ためか、大きな島合流が発生し、まともな海島断面を形成していなかった。この結果を受けて、島合流が起こらない条件を調べたところ、海/島成分の複合比が50/50の際に島合流がほぼ抑制されたため、複合比を50/50とし、その他の条件は全て実施例1に従い再度海島繊維を得た。再紡糸した結果では、島比率が低下しているために、実施例3の島成分A同等のものとなったものの、島成分の吐出不安定性に基づく断面の乱れのため、島成分径バラツキは大きいものであった。また、島比率が低い、すなわち海比率が高いため、島成分の配列が若干崩れ、島成分間距離バラツキも大きいものであった。
この後混繊糸を筒編地とし、脱海を行ったところ、海島繊維の島成分径バラツキに起因する脱落が多く見られた(脱落判定:×)。また、脱海後の混繊糸の断面を確認したところ、繊維径が小さい繊維が海島繊維の配置の履歴に応じて、部分的に集中して存在し、且つ本発明と比較すると繊維径が大きな繊維と繊維径が小さい繊維のなじみが悪いものであった。このため、繊維径が大きい繊維が混繊糸の表面付近に浮き出てしまい、風合い評価では、ナノファイバー独特のヌメリ感が本発明と比較して大きく低下したものであった(風合い評価:×)。また、前述した繊維の偏りにより、布帛の部分で色目に濃淡があり、本発明と比較すると発色性は悪いものであった(発色性評価:×)。結果を表4に示す。
特開平8-158144号公報に記載される各成分のノズル毎に滞留部と背圧付与部を設置した海島口金(島成分用プレート1枚:島数300、海成分用プレート1枚)を用い、海/島成分の複合比が50/50としたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。ちなみに、比較例2では、複合比が20/80の場合には、複数の島成分が融着してしまい、1000nm以下の島成分を形成させることが困難であったため、島比率を50%まで低下させて実施している。また、海島断面における島成分の均質性が低いために、紡糸中1回の単糸流れ(切れ)、延伸工程においては、4錘の糸切れ錘があり、製糸性が低いものであった。
紡糸速度を3000m/minとし、延伸倍率を3.0倍としたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
実施例11から、本発明の海島繊維では、その繊維断面における島成分の規則的な配列のために、製糸性が高く、総ドラフト(紡糸+延伸)を実施例1対比1.5倍に高めた場合においても、実施例1と同様に糸切れなく、製糸することができることがわかった。これは、実施例1と同様の総ドラフトである比較例1および比較例2で糸切れが確認されたことを考えると、この高い製糸性は、本発明の優れた効果の一つであることがわかる。また、結果を表5に示したが、実施例11では、複合紡糸としては、比較的過酷な製糸条件であったにも関わらず、実施例1と同等の力学特性を有していることがわかった。結果を表5に示す。
実施例1と比較して、吐出孔1孔当りの島成分A用分配孔を100孔(孔径:φ0.2mm)、島成分B用分配孔を10孔(孔径:φ0.65mm)とし、口金当たりのグループ数を100に変更した分配プレートと、φ0.3(L/D=1.5)の吐出孔が100穿設された吐出プレートを用いたこと以外は全て実施例1に従い、実施した。
分配プレートの孔配置を図7-(d)に示したアレンジを基本とし、吐出孔1孔当りの分配孔を1000孔(孔径:φ0.2mm)として、内島成分B用として、分配孔4孔が近接したもの(島成分B)、分配孔16孔が近接したもの(島成分C)をそれぞれ10箇所と島成分A(単独孔)が800孔を規則正しく配置した分配プレートを用いた。また、海成分を5-ナトリウムスルホイソフタル酸5.0モル%共重合したPET(共重合PET2 溶融粘度:140Pa・s)とし、延伸倍率2.7倍としたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
実施例13で使用した分配プレートに更に分配孔が32孔近接した島成分Dを5箇所加え、島成分A(単独孔)を640孔としたこと以外は、全て実施例12に従い実施した。
島成分はナイロン6(N6 溶融粘度:190Pa・s)、海成分はポリ乳酸(PLA 溶融粘度:100Pa・s)とし、紡糸温度260℃、延伸倍率は2.5倍としたこと以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
島成分をポリブチレンテレフタレート(PBT 溶融粘度:120Pa・s)とし、海成分を実施例15で使用したポリ乳酸(PLA 溶融粘度:110Pa・s)とし、紡糸温度255℃、紡糸速度1300m/minで紡糸した。また、延伸倍率3.2倍とし、その他の条件は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
島成分をポリフェニレンサルファイド(PPS 溶融粘度:180Pa・s)とし、海成分を実施例1で用いたPETを220℃で固相重合して得た高分子量ポリエチレンテレフタレート(PET2 溶融粘度:240Pa・s)とし、紡糸温度310℃として紡糸した。また、未延伸繊維を90℃、130℃および230℃の加熱ローラ間で総延伸倍率3.0倍として2段延伸した以外は、全て実施例1に従い実施した。
