example 1

[0116] use figure 1 The apparatus shown produces a first example of a composite nonwoven sheet material. Spun polypropylene filaments 2 having a width of 0.4 m were laid on the endless forming fabric 1 at a speed of 15 m / min so that the filaments 2 were not bonded to each other. The web 3 of spun filaments 2 had a weight of 20 gsm. In the wet lay-up stage 5, an aqueous slurry or aqueous foam comprising pulp fibers 6 is wet laid on the web 3 of spun filaments 2, absorbing excess water. The wet laid pulp fiber 6 weighed 40 gsm. The resulting intermediate product 7 weighed 60 gsm and was moved to hydroentanglement stage 8 . Unbonded spun filaments 2 and wet-laid pulp fibers 6 were combined in two flow channels at a pressure of 40 bar using a single row of nozzles 9 (120 μm inlet holes and 0.6 mm pitch) at a speed of 15 m / min Together, supported by fabric 10 at the same time. The energy supply at the hydro-entanglement is about 178 kWh / ton of processed material. The resultin...

example 2

[0120] use figure 2 The apparatus shown produces a second example of a composite nonwoven sheet material. An aqueous slurry or aqueous foam comprising pulp fibers 6' is wet laid on the forming fabric 1'. The weight of the wet laid pulp fibers 6' was 40 gsm. The wet-laid pulp fiber web had a width of 0.4 m. Spun polypropylene filaments 2' are deposited on wet-laid pulp fibers 6'. The weight of the filaments was 20 gsm. Subsequently, Kuraray bicomponent fibers (3.3dtex x 5mm, 11 segments) comprising 17gsm of splittable polyethylene terephthalate (PET) / polyamide (PA) and 3gsm of Kelheim blue viscose A microfiber mixture 16' is wet laid on the first side of the intermediate structure. The resulting intermediate product 17' is hydroentangled in stage 18' in which the remaining splittable fibers are split and the fibrils 2', wet-laid pulp fibers 6' and microfibers 16' are combined with A single row of nozzles 19' (120 μm inlet holes and a pitch of 0.6 mm) was integrated in tw...

example 3

[0122] Use something like figure 2 Another example of making a composite nonwoven sheet material using the apparatus shown in . This example differs from Example 2 in that the microfibers are applied before the filaments are laid and the pulp fibers are applied after the filaments are laid. Thus, an aqueous slurry comprising microfibers 6' (such as PET / PA in stage 16' of Example 2) was wet laid on the forming fabric 1'. The width of the wet-laid microfiber web was 0.4 m. Spun polypropylene filaments 2' are deposited on microfibers 6'. The weight of the filaments was 20 gsm. Subsequently, pulp fibers 16' are foam laid on the first side of the intermediate structure. The resulting intermediate product 17' is subjected to hydroentanglement in stage 18' where the remaining splittable fibers are split and the fibrils 2', microfibers 6' and pulp fibers 16' are combined in two manifolds using a single The row of nozzles 19' is integrated at a pressure of 60 bar. The material 2...

Abstract

A composite nonwoven sheet material includes pulp fibers, a reinforcement material and microfibers. The sheet material has one pulp-enriched first outer layer and one microfiber- enriched second outerlayer, the reinforcement material is thereby interposed between the pulp- enriched first outer layer and the microfiber-enriched second outer layer and the pulp fibers and the microfibers penetrate the reinforcement material. Also disclosed is a process of producing such composite nonwoven sheet material and the use of such composite nonwoven sheet material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to composite nonwoven sheet materials comprising pulp fibers and microfibers. The invention also relates to methods of producing such composite nonwoven sheets. Background technique [0002] Absorbent nonwoven sheets are used for wiping up various types of spills and dirt in industrial, medical, office and household applications. They usually include a combination of synthetic fibers and cellulose pulp to absorb water and other hydrophilic substances, as well as hydrophobic substances such as oil or fat. In addition to sufficient strength, the sheet used for wiping needs to be sufficiently absorbent. [0003] The introduction of microfibres opens up many new possibilities for wiping. The advantage of wipes that contain microfibers is that they are very effective at deep cleaning since the microfibers can get into holes and crevices. Furthermore, due to the high capillary force of the material, wipes containing microfi...
