Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of sanitary products, in particular to a method for preparing a skin-friendly and soft sanitary napkin. Background Art

[0002] The structure of existing sanitary napkins generally includes a liquid permeable surface layer, an absorbent body and a liquid impermeable bottom layer stacked in sequence from top to bottom. Common liquid permeable surface layers include pure cotton non-woven fabrics and hot air non-woven fabrics. Pure cotton non-woven fabrics are relatively soft but have poor dryness and are prone to dampness and stickiness. Hot air non-woven fabrics have good dryness but have a poor hand feel and a burr feeling.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN110236793A discloses a sanitary napkin with a non-woven perforated film composite surface layer, including a sanitary napkin body and wings on both sides. The top of the sanitary napkin body is the surface layer, which is composed of an upper hot air non-woven fabric layer and a lower PE perforated film layer. It pioneered the use of hot air non-woven fabric and PE perforated film to composite the two into a new double-layer material surface layer to replace the traditional surface layer. Since the hot air non-woven fabric layer is in direct contact with the human body, there is no potential safety risk. At the same time, it is soft and comfortable to the touch and has good moisture absorption and permeation conductivity. The inverted V-shaped holes or inverted W-shaped holes set on the PE perforated film layer can effectively prevent backseepage and keep the surface layer dry, but the softness of the surface layer of the sanitary napkin is relatively ordinary. Summary of the invention

[0004] Therefore, in view of the above problems, the present invention provides a method for preparing a skin-friendly and soft sanitary napkin to solve the defect of poor softness of the sanitary napkin in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme: a method for preparing a skin-friendly and soft sanitary napkin, comprising preparing a liquid-permeable surface layer, preparing an absorbent body, preparing a liquid-impermeable bottom layer, and the process of online compounding the liquid-permeable surface layer, the absorbent body and the liquid-impermeable bottom layer into one body and cutting them into individual products, wherein the preparation of the liquid-permeable surface layer comprises the following steps:

[0006] (1) Preparation of raw materials: Pure cotton fiber and bicomponent fiber with skin-core structure are mixed evenly in a weight ratio of 1:2-1:3 as raw materials, and then sent to a web laying machine for cross-laying and drafting reinforcement to obtain a fiber web. The fiber web is then heated and rolled with a hot roller to obtain a soft non-woven fabric.

[0007] (2) Preparation of soft foam: using flexible foamable material and polyester polyol as main raw materials, adding a foaming agent, a catalyst and a stabilizer, and sending them into a mold for foaming treatment to obtain a soft foam, wherein the soft foam has a one-piece foam body, the bottom surface of the foam body is a flat structure, and the foam body has hemispherical structures evenly distributed at intervals;

[0008] (3) cutting the soft foam;

[0009] (4) The cut soft foam body is transferred to the surface of the soft non-woven fabric, and hot melt adhesive is sprayed or scraped on the contact portion between the soft non-woven fabric and the soft foam body in advance, so that the cut soft foam body and the soft non-woven fabric are composited into one, thereby obtaining a liquid-permeable surface layer.

[0010] Furthermore: the soft non-woven fabric has a front end, a middle part and a rear end which are sequentially connected along the length direction, and the soft foam body is distributed at the front end and the rear end of the soft non-woven fabric.

[0011] Furthermore: the area where the soft foam is distributed accounts for 1 / 5-2 / 5 of the total area of ​​the soft non-woven fabric.

[0012] Furthermore: the diameter of the hemispherical structure is 2-5 mm.

[0013] Furthermore: the soft foam is a polyurethane foam.

[0014] Furthermore: in step (1), the temperature of the hot rolling roller is controlled at 110-150°C.

[0015] Furthermore: the edges of the surface of the soft non-woven fabric are compounded with soft foam.

[0016] Furthermore, after step (4), a hydrophobic material layer is compounded on both lateral sides of the liquid-permeable surface layer.

[0017] Furthermore: the hydrophobic material layer is an improved soft foam, and the specific preparation process is: using the soft foam obtained by the above preparation as a substrate, and performing a hydrophobic modification treatment.

[0018] Further: the improved soft foam has a hemispherical convex structure which is continuously and evenly arranged at intervals.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0020] The skin-friendly and soft sanitary napkin obtained by the preparation method of the present invention has a liquid-permeable surface layer composed of a soft non-woven fabric and a soft foamed body arranged on a partial area of ​​the surface of the soft non-woven fabric. The soft non-woven fabric is prepared by mixing pure cotton fiber and ES fiber, and has both the skin-friendly breathability of pure cotton fabric and the dryness of ES fiber. At the same time, the soft foamed body is arranged at the front and rear ends of the soft non-woven fabric, which can not only increase the softness of the front and rear ends of the sanitary napkin, but also change the area in contact with the skin from a flat type to a hemispherical contact surface, thereby reducing the direct contact area with the skin and making it more comfortable to use.

[0021] Furthermore, the skin-friendly and soft sanitary napkin of the present invention has a hydrophobic material layer on both lateral sides of its liquid-permeable surface layer. The hydrophobic material layer is obtained by waterproofing a soft foam as a base material, that is, it has a hemispherical surface convex structure of the soft foam, retains the advantage of a smaller area in contact with the skin, and has the characteristic of better softness, and can prevent liquid from leaking from both sides.
