Embodiment Construction

[0129] The above discussion can be further described with reference to the following non-limiting examples. In the examples provided, meltblown fabrics and polyoxymethylenes were formed using equipment and conditions similar to those of R. Zhao, "Meltblown Polyoxymethylene Copolymers", INT'L NONWOVENS J., pp. 19-24 (Summer 2005). layer structure. In particular, using Biax-Fiberfilm TM Meltblown fabrics and multilayer constructions are formed on a meltblown production line (Biax-Fiberfilm Corp., Greenville, WI) that operates at a melt pressure of 1200psi (6.89MPa) to 1700psi (10.34MPa) and a melt temperature of 200°C to 275°C. The temperature was operated using an array die with a spinneret hole density of 50-150 holes / inch. The line has an extruder, block and spinneret, and an air manifold to supply the spinneret with an air pressure of 5psi-20psi (34kPa-138kPa) and an air temperature of 220°C-260°C.

[0130] In each example, Biax-Fiberfilm was used under these conditions ...

Abstract

Multilayer meltblown composites, articles made therefrom, and methods for making same are provided. The meltblown composite can include a first meltblown layer comprising one or more resins having an Ultimate Elongation (UE) of from about 50% to about 250%, as measured according to ASTM D412; and a second meltblown layer comprising a propylene-a-olefm copolymer having an ethylene content of about 5 wt% to about 20 wt%; a MFR (ASTM-1238D, 2.16 kg, 2300 DEG C) of about 10 g / 10 min to about 30 g / 10 min; and a heat of fusion of 75 J / g or less.

Description

[0001] Inventors: Alistair D. Westwood and Galen Richeson [0002] priority statement [0003] This application was filed concurrently with PCT / US2010 / ___(2010EM070). This application claims priority and the benefit of USSN 12 / 723,336 (2010EM071), filed March 12, 2010, and USSN 12 / 723,317 (2010EM070), filed March 12, 2010, each of which is incorporated herein in its entirety for reference. field of invention [0004] The present disclosure relates to elastic meltblown fibers comprising propylene-alpha-olefin copolymers, as well as elastic meltblown fabrics made therefrom, multilayer constructions made therefrom, and methods of making the same. Background of the invention [0005] The market desires highly elastic, breathable nonwoven fabrics that do not require a form of mechanical activation with the necessary aesthetic qualities. Existing products are complex laminates composed of elastic films (typically styrenic block copolymers (“SBC”) or polyurethane) with polystyre...
