Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of high-elastic non-woven fabric preparation, and more specifically, to a processing method of high-elastic non-woven fabric. Background Art

[0002] Nonwoven fabrics, also known as non-woven fabrics, are made of directional or random fibers and are a new generation of environmentally friendly materials. However, the lack of elasticity of traditional nonwoven fabrics has always been a technical challenge. In order to give nonwoven fabrics elasticity, a common solution is to embed elastic films, spandex yarns and other elastic materials between two layers of nonwoven fabrics; another method is to spray elastic materials on the surface of nonwoven fabrics, but these methods often significantly increase the weight of the product and increase the difficulty of subsequent processing.

[0003] To solve the above problems, a Chinese patent with announcement number CN107780047B announced on June 12, 2020 provides a method for preparing an elastic non-woven fabric, an elastic non-woven fabric and its application. The non-woven fabric provided in the document is endowed with elasticity by adding elastomers to the raw materials of the three-layer fiber web. However, this method requires the addition of a large amount of elastomer, which will increase the material cost and affect the wear resistance of the non-woven fabric, thereby shortening the service life of the non-woven fabric. In addition, the most fatal defect of the non-woven fabric is that the non-woven fabric is directly elastic and difficult to roll, which may affect the subsequent processing and efficiency of the non-woven fabric. In addition, the raw materials used in the non-woven fabric are mainly non-degradable materials such as polypropylene and vinyl polymers. After the service life of the non-woven fabric ends, it may have a long-term impact on the environment.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new processing method for high-elastic non-woven fabrics; using the processing method, non-woven fabrics with good elasticity and wear resistance can be prepared. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a processing method of a high-elastic non-woven fabric.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions.

[0030] 1. This solution effectively improves the thermal stability of styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene block copolymer (SEBS) by introducing thermoplastic polyester elastomer TPEE into SEBS. This improvement makes SEBS less likely to degrade during high-temperature preparation, thereby improving the breaking strength and breaking force of the non-woven fabric and significantly improving the elasticity of the non-woven fabric. In addition, the addition of TPEE not only improves the elasticity and recovery force of the non-woven fabric, but also makes the prepared non-woven fabric have good elongation at break and elongation at break; it also makes the non-woven fabric have good air permeability and softness.

[0031] 2. The non-woven fabric raw material formula and the ratio between the components in the formula provided by this scheme significantly improve the elastic properties of the non-woven fabric.

[0032] 3. The processing method provided in this scheme consolidates the parallel bicomponent fibers prepared by die A and die C and the elastic fibers prepared by die B, thereby limiting the stretching of the elastic fibers prepared by die B in the middle layer, so that the high elastic nonwoven fabric before activation does not show an elastic effect. This process and fiber combination are designed to ensure the softness of the product and enable the nonwoven fabric to have excellent elongation after activation, thereby increasing the efficiency of nonwoven fabric winding and slitting.

[0074] Test Example 1:

[0075] The nonwoven fabrics involved in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to tensile tests, and the test results are shown in the following table:

[0076] Table 1 Tensile test results of nonwoven fabrics involved in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1

[0077]

[0078] As can be seen from Table 1, when the parallel two-component formula is 95-99 parts of polypropylene, 0.5-1.5 parts of white masterbatch, 1-3 parts of lubricant and 3-5 parts of polybutylene succinate; when the high elastic fiber formula is 66-72 parts of styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene block copolymer, 27-34 parts of thermoplastic polyester elastomer TPEE, 1-3 parts of lubricant and 3-5 parts of polybutylene succinate, its breaking strength can reach more than 21.71N, and the breaking strength can reach more than 0.37N / mm; as can be seen from Example 5, when the weight parts of each component are reduced, the breaking strength of the non-woven fabric is reduced to 13.75N, and the breaking strength is reduced to 0.11N / mm; as can be seen from Example 6, when the weight parts of each component in the formula are increased, the breaking strength of the prepared non-woven fabric is reduced by 15.73N, and the breaking strength is reduced to 0.18N / mm. These data indicate that increasing or decreasing the weight fraction of each group in the formula cannot increase the breaking strength and breaking tenacity of the nonwoven fabric.

[0079] As can be seen from Table 1, the breaking strength and breaking force of the nonwoven fabrics prepared in Examples 1 to 6 are significantly greater than the breaking strength and breaking strength of the nonwoven fabrics prepared in Comparative Example 1. The breaking elongation and breaking elongation of the nonwoven fabrics prepared in Examples 1 to 6 are significantly greater than the breaking elongation and breaking elongation of the nonwoven fabrics prepared in the comparative example; this indicates that the nonwoven fabrics prepared in this scheme can not only withstand one-time stretching, but also maintain stable performance in repeated stretching and compression. This lasting elasticity and deformation resistance ensure the durability and reliability of the nonwoven fabrics during long-term use.

[0080] It can be seen from Examples 1 to 4 that the elongation at break of the non-woven fabric prepared by this scheme can reach more than 113.83 mm, and the elongation at break can reach more than 41.20%. These data show that the non-woven fabric prepared by this scheme can not only withstand one-time stretching, but also maintain stable performance in repeated stretching and compression. This long-lasting elasticity and deformation resistance ensure the durability and reliability of the non-woven fabric during long-term use.

[0081] Test Example 2:

[0082] The physical properties of the non-woven fabrics in the unactivated state involved in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 were tested, and the specific test results are shown in Table 2.

[0083] Table 2 Physical properties of nonwoven fabrics in an unactivated state

[0084]

[0085] Test Example 3:

[0086] The physical properties of the activated nonwoven fabrics involved in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 were tested, and the specific test results are shown in Table 3.

[0087] Table 3 Physical properties of nonwoven fabrics in activated state

[0088]

[0089] It can be seen from the data in Table 2 and Table 3 that the nonwoven fabric processed by the present invention can have good lightness, softness and air permeability. In addition, whether before or after mechanical activation, these characteristics of the nonwoven fabric prepared by the present invention can be maintained, and the increase in elasticity does not sacrifice other physical properties. This means that the nonwoven fabric prepared by the present invention increases the elasticity of the nonwoven fabric after activation treatment, while still maintaining the original lightness, softness and air permeability, thereby ensuring the comprehensiveness and reliability of the nonwoven fabric prepared by the method in practical applications.
