Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sanitary materials, in particular to a sanitary material and a processing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Existing lamination processes for multi-layer composite sanitary materials typically involve gluing and then drying and shaping them using thermal oil furnace heating, or direct hot pressing without gluing. However, these processes are time-consuming, energy-intensive, and require at least six hours to start and stop the machine. Furthermore, the temperature can only reach a certain level, and excessively high temperatures pose a safety hazard. This process is only suitable for laminating single materials, such as non-woven fabrics, and has poor results laminating non-woven fabrics with film products. Multi-layer lamination requires multiple steps, and care must be taken to avoid misalignment between layers. This makes it difficult to customize custom patterns due to the high cost and time required. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a sanitary material and a processing method thereof.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0005] A novel processing method for a sanitary material, wherein the sanitary material comprises a first material layer and a second material layer, wherein the first material layer and the second material layer are non-woven fabric layers or synthetic resin film layers, and wherein the processing method comprises the following processing steps:

[0006] (1) mechanically scraping the surface of the first material layer and / or the second material layer to form a rough surface;

[0007] (2) The first material layer and the second material layer processed in step 2 are overlapped and laid with the rough surfaces being the contact surfaces, and are welded and composited by ultrasonic vibration under a set pressure.

[0008] Preferably, nano zinc oxide particles are sprayed on the rough surface.

[0009] Preferably, a first connecting film layer is provided between the first material layer and the second material layer, and the first connecting film layer is a low melt index resin film layer.

[0010] Preferably, the first connecting film layer is provided with a plurality of energy conducting holes, and the cross-section of the energy conducting holes is any one of a triangle, a rectangle and a semicircle.

[0011] Preferably, the sanitary material is provided with a third material layer, a first material layer and a second material layer from top to bottom, a second connecting film layer is provided between the third material layer and the first material layer, and the second connecting film layer is a resin film layer with a higher melt index than the first connecting film layer.

[0012] Preferably, the first material layer and / or the second material layer has a grammage of 100-300 g / m2.

[0013] Preferably, the first material layer and / or the second material layer is a non-woven fabric layer, and the non-woven fabric layer is made of a rectangular cross-section spinneret fiber web with an aspect ratio of 3-7:1.

[0014] Preferably, the welding time is 0.25-0.5S, the welding pressure is 110-180N, and the welding amplitude is 30-55 μm.

[0015] Preferably, after ultrasonic vibration welding and lamination, the pressure is maintained for 0.5-2s to obtain the finished product, and the pressure is maintained at 80-130N.

[0016] A sanitary material, the preparation method of which includes the novel sanitary material processing method described in claim 1, comprising a composite body welded by ultrasonic vibration. The composite body is sequentially provided with a third material layer, a second resin film layer, a first material layer, a first resin film layer, and a second material layer from top to bottom. The second resin film layer has a greater melt index than the first resin film layer. The bottom surface of the first material layer is roughened, and the first resin film layer is provided with energy conducting holes. Nano-zinc oxide particles are dispersed between the first and second material layers.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] The present invention uses an ultrasonic generator to convert high-frequency electrical energy into high-frequency vibration energy, and the welding head transmits the ultrasonic energy to the non-woven fabric welding surface. The vibration energy instantly causes the molecules of the workpiece to produce friction and reach the melting point, thus achieving welding between plastics or non-woven fabrics.

[0019] 1. No longer need oil heating equipment, it can be turned on and off immediately, which is convenient and efficient;

[0020] 2. Use electricity, clean, environmentally friendly, safe and efficient. At the same time, the temperature can be adjusted according to the needs of different materials without restrictions.

[0021] 3. Realize the combined production of various materials to meet the diverse needs of the market;

[0022] 4. Customizable embossing is possible, and the cost is low to help customers expand the market.

[0023] At the same time, the present invention increases the space between layers by providing rough surfaces and energy-conducting holes, thereby avoiding the situation in which, during ultrasonic vibration welding and compounding, the two workpieces are in close contact under pressure in a plane overlapping manner, and the molten material has insufficient casting space, forming stress concentration areas where casting is not possible. Stress concentration seriously affects the welding strength, causing the welding material to decompose, become brittle, and oxidize, thereby affecting the welding quality.

[0024] Among them, nano-zinc oxide particles and energy-conducting holes can increase energy transfer, shorten welding time, and reduce edge stress concentration; the rough surface increases the surface friction coefficient of the material layer. Increasing the surface roughness of the material can reduce acoustic impedance and increase the surface energy flux density, thereby improving its welding quality; nano-zinc oxide particles as fillers can increase the hardness of polymer materials, facilitating the transmission of ultrasonic waves; the connecting film layer is more susceptible to ultrasonic waves, improving the softening and melting degree of the weld point, and expanding the range of process parameters. Through these processes and structural designs, thermal conductivity is effectively improved, which saves power output and reduces production costs.

[0025] On the other hand, the gradient reduction design of the melt index of the upper and lower connecting film layers avoids excessive wrinkling of the layer near the welding head and weak welding of the layer far from the welding head, making the welding effect more uniform, improving the flatness and comfort of the layer surface, and reducing the impact of welding wrinkles on the pattern display effect of the layer surface.
