Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a layer material according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • EP 1644539-B1 describes continuous capillaries through a PU coating.
  • the coating is structured on a matrix made of silicone rubber.
  • the polyurethane dispersion or mixture for the structuring layer is applied to the negatively structured matrix and dried and solidified by means of heat.
  • the die itself does not absorb any water, so that the water can only be removed via and / or through the surface of the coating.
  • the structuring takes place in-situ during the drying and solidification of the polyurethane dispersion top layer.
  • An essential object of the invention is the saving of energy and the associated reduction in emissions.
  • capillaries are only possible with thin coatings. Their number per unit area and their diameter are difficult to control because they form as holes in the coating when the PU dispersion solidifies on the die, which holes have to communicate with holes or thin spots in the adhesive layer.
  • the coating is cross-linked and cannot be restructured, and even if this were possible, the capillaries would close under the high pressure required for embossing. These coatings show a uniform structure in the surface. The same applies to so-called corrected scar liver with a foamed polyurethane coating.
  • the invention has among others the Task to avoid these disadvantages and to create format blanks and stamped parts for the processing industry, namely the formation of individual surfaces, which can also have technical functions, for example the formation of stamped parts for shoes, which have different structures in one piece and possibly also have evenly distributed or precisely formed capillaries.
  • a layer material is created which does not have these defects and forms the prerequisite for creating format blanks which can be structured inexpensively and with any surface in the processing industry.
  • the invention enables technicians and product designers, for example in a shoe factory, to individually design the surface.
  • the production of the matrices in the 3D process is digitally simple and can be carried out quickly with small matrices.
  • a further object of the invention is to coat a leather in such a way and to structure the cut-out parts in such a way that only die-related waste arises, because the parts of the skin of small thickness and loose grain, which normally represent waste, also match the material Structure can be provided. This is achieved primarily through the embossing parameters, pressure and temperature as well as the pressing or embossing tools which have pressure-elastic materials.
  • the residence time of the dispersion or of the dispersion mixtures for the structuring surface is between 2 and 5 minutes. According to the task, this time should be reduced to a few seconds.
  • Known materials or coatings, which were produced on reversing matrices, consist of several layers. Layer separations are therefore preprogrammed. A layered structure also creates a so-called plywood effect, ie the substrate materials automatically become stiffer after coating. The known layer materials are relatively hard.
  • soft layer materials are to be created with a homogeneous-looking surface which, during hot stamping, because of their foam structure provided according to the invention, prevents the full temperature of the die from being passed on to the carrier layer during pressing. Higher temperatures are perceived as stress in both microfiber fleece and leather, and the carrier materials harden and lose strength, especially when moisture, heat and pressure act together on the carrier layer.
  • the essential task of the invention is to create a layered material which is easy to manufacture and store, which permits exact surface structuring, in particular of format blanks and stamped parts, which has the best mechanical or physical properties and which can be produced and processed economically.
  • the layer should be built up from a single layer of aqueous PU dispersions and should not have any voids, sink marks, bubbles or cracks that arise during drying, even with a thickness of more than 0.4 mm. Furthermore, the wet coating should not lose its full water content in thickness when drying or water removal.
  • Another essential object of the invention is to provide a layer material with a flat, structureless, two-dimensional coating surface in such a way that the coating can be shaped economically with any individual structuring even after a storage period of more than six months without loss of quality and a three-dimensional structure accepts or maintains.
  • the embossing of the layer material should therefore be possible after a longer period of time after the layers have been created. This is mainly achieved with the special type of PU foam used, in particular its thermoplasticity and composition.
  • Another object of the invention is to create a layer material, the layers of which can be created with PU dispersions on a purely aqueous basis.
  • a layer material is obtained in which a carrier layer carries a surface-structurable layer, which can be optimally processed even after long storage. It is only necessary to thermally activate the surface-structurable layer and thermoplastic above its softening point with a die under heat and
  • the layer and the further layer retain their structure after deduction from the matrix.
  • the pressurization results in a practically inseparable layer material, which reproduces the die faithfully, above all due to the layer thickness and the chosen embossing pressure.
  • the layer of PU foam applied to the carrier layer and the further, non-foamed layer are structured.
  • the consistency of the backing is not adversely affected by the pressurization.
  • the pressure range according to the invention takes into account the consistency of the PU foams used and structured, without significantly changing the foam structure.
  • the embossing process can be carried out economically for smaller cuts and stamped parts.
  • the layer is dried after application to the carrier layer before structuring to a water content of less than 1.5% by weight, preferably less than 0.5% by weight, in particular until it is water-free.
  • aqueous PU Dispersion mixture based on aliphatic and / or aromatic polyether and / or polyester and / or polycarbonate polyurethane used.
  • the PU foam is also produced with a PU dispersion mixture, in which the individual readily miscible PU dispersions used to produce the PU dispersion mixture show different temperatures of their softening point in the dried state.
  • the PU dispersions are selected so that the PU dispersion mixture has or maintains thermoplastic contact adhesive properties after it has dried and any crosslinking, but this is only a subcrosslinking, and also after it has been embossed or structured.
  • a foamable PU dispersion mixture contains between 65 and 91% by weight polyurethane dispersions based on the total weight of the PU foam with all additives. These additives are e.g. Polyacrylate dispersions, thickeners, pigments, flame retardant additives, foaming agents, crosslinkers. PU dispersion mixtures are used which each contain between 35 and 52% by weight, based on the total weight of the respective PU dispersion, of solids.
  • the softening point and the adhesive properties of the PU foam can not only be determined by choosing the softening point of the individual PU dispersions, but can also be controlled by adding crosslinking agents. 0 to 4.2% by weight of crosslinking agent, based on the total weight of the PU foam, is advantageously used.
  • a crosslinker of this type is, for example, the crosslinker XL80 from Lanxess AG. It is advantageous to use PU dispersions which have a softening point in the dried, uncrosslinked or undercrosslinked state which is above 45 ° C. and which thus become soft and sticky above this temperature. The softening point can also be above 95 ° C. when using crosslinking agents to the extent according to the invention.
  • the dried PU dispersion mixture Before and after the crosslinking, the dried PU dispersion mixture should have thermoplastic properties and the PU dispersion mixture is flowable under pressure above the softening point and can be permanently deformed.
  • the layer of PU foam should be honey-like, viscous but not thin, in order to be able to adopt the structure of the die quickly and precisely.
  • the softening point and the adhesive properties can be set or selected.
  • Multiple PU dispersions can also be used to produce the proportion of the PU dispersion mixture with hot melt or contact adhesive properties and for the proportion of the PU dispersion mixture without such properties, which two proportions are mixed to produce the PU foam that each have or develop desired properties.
  • thickeners based on water-free polyacrylate with a viscous consistency or foam additives containing ammonia, such as e.g. Millio shape used.
  • Polyacrylate-based thickeners which stabilize the PU foam are used to an extent of 1.5 to 5% by weight of the total weight of the PU foam.
  • PU dispersions based on aliphatic polyether and / or polyester and / or polycarbonate polyurethanes are used to create the PU foam.
  • the PU dispersions used for the preparation of PU dispersion mixtures can have different temperatures for their respective softening points or are selected or mixed according to this point of view. It is thus possible to specifically set different softening points or softening ranges for the dried PU foam. By heating to this desired softening point or above it or to a softening area that allows embossing, it is possible to permanently impart a desired surface structure to the surface of the water-free or almost water-free, thermoplastic or thermoplastic structurable PU foam.
  • Different PU dispersions are mainly used to adjust or optimize the hydrolysis resistance, adhesion, softness and embossability of the PU foam and to adapt it to different applications.
  • the PU dispersions used to produce the PU foam advantageously each contain 35 to 52% by weight PU solid, based on the respective weight of the PU dispersion used, including its additives.
  • the individual PU dispersions are then mixed or mixed into the PU dispersion mixture and the PU dispersion mixture used to produce the PU foam contains 65 to 91% by weight of such PU dispersions, based on the total weight of the PU foam together all aggregates.
  • a PU dispersion mixture which contains between 18 and 52% by weight, based on the finished PU dispersion mixture, of a commercially available PU dispersion based on polyester with a solids content of approx. 40%, such as that offered by BASF as a heat-activated industrial contact adhesive under the name Luphen.
  • the remaining 39 to 73% by weight are formed from a PU dispersion which likewise contains about 40% solids and has a softening point of above 125 ° C., for example a PU dispersion with the designation DLV-N from Lanxess AG.
  • This mixture leads to exceptionally high adhesion properties, especially in the case of microfiber nonwovens and sanded grain leather, without significantly hardening the finished product.
  • the heat-activatable polyurethane of PU dispersions which can be used advantageously has at least a partially linear and / or at least partially crystalline structure and can be thermoformed in the dried state and can also be compressed as PU foam.

  • the procedure according to the invention is simple and economical. It is possible that the PU foam is sprayed onto the carrier layer, in particular airless, or is applied using the screen printing process or with at least one roller or doctor blade in the same thickness. In this way, it is easy to set the desired thickness of the layer of PU foam to be applied, which thickness is ultimately also important for the properties of the layer material. For special applications, it can be advantageous if, prior to or simultaneously with the structuring of the PU foam with the die, a further layer of a PU dispersion, possibly of a different color, is applied or bonded directly onto the layer. After solidification or drying, this layer has a thickness of 0.015 to 0.060 mm, preferably 0.020 to 0.045 mm.

  • the carrier layer or the layer material provided with the layer of dried PU foam can be produced in sheets or in the form of blanks and can be stored well after the PU foam has dried.
