Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of filter materials technology, and in particular to a method for preparing an elastic sanitary material. Background Technology
[0002] Sanitary napkins are an important hygiene product. Their structure consists of a super absorbent layer, a edging layer at the bottom of the super absorbent layer, and a top layer on top of the super absorbent layer. One side of the edging layer is attached to the clothing, and the other side is attached to the super absorbent layer to prevent the absorbed liquid from contacting and staining the clothing. Usually, the edging layer is designed to be larger than the super absorbent layer, so that when the edging layer and the super absorbent layer are combined, they can form an outer edge structure at the edge of the super absorbent layer. This outer edge structure can effectively prevent side leakage.
[0003] The edging layer needs to both block the absorbent layer and clothing, and its outer edge structure comes into contact with the skin. Therefore, the edging layer needs to meet the performance requirements of being waterproof, breathable, skin-friendly, and soft. Currently, the materials used for edging layers in existing technologies are usually made of a composite of various non-woven fabrics with different functions. For example, CN115648778A discloses a sanitary care base film and its preparation method. This technical solution consists of a non-woven fabric layer, a breathable layer, and a waterproof layer. The non-woven fabric layer is SMS non-woven fabric, the breathable membrane is TPU or PE membrane, and the waterproof membrane is PTFE membrane. The three-layer structure is composited using an ultrasonic welding machine. In actual use, it was found that when the composite layer is welded using an ultrasonic welding machine, the weld joint will solidify at high temperature. The solid formation inside this weld point will significantly reduce the breathability of the base film. Therefore, in order to reduce the impact of the welding process on the spot welding, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the composite process of the edging layer. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention addresses the problem of significantly reduced uniformity and breathability in materials composited with nonwoven fabric and meltblown fabric using welding technology. It provides a method for preparing an elastic sanitary material. This method employs a composite process of needle punching, cold pressing, and stretching to bond a spunbond layer and a meltblown layer. The spunbond layer has a core-skin structure consisting of a PE resin outer layer and a PP resin core layer, while the meltblown layer is a TPU meltblown layer. Needling allows the fibers of the spunbond layer to penetrate the meltblown layer, improving the connectivity between the fibers. Cold pressing at the needle punches melts the PP resin on the surface of the spunbond fibers, allowing the melted PP resin to act as an adhesive, further enhancing the bonding strength. Simultaneously, cold pressing reduces the size of the needle punches, and stretching closes the needle punches and flattens the pressure points, significantly improving the uniformity of the spunbond layer surface. This elastic material is soft, highly skin-friendly, highly breathable, significantly improves comfort, and has no hard, clumpy feel.
[0005] The specific technical solution of this invention is as follows: A method for preparing an elastic sanitary material includes the following steps: An elastic sanitary material is made by laminating a spunbond layer onto the surface of a meltblown layer. The fibers of the spunbond layer have a core-sheath structure, with PE resin as the sheath layer and PP resin as the core layer, and the fibers of the meltblown layer are TPU resin. The composite method includes needle punching, cold pressing, and stretching; The conditions for needle punching include: a needle punching density of 1~5 needles / cm², and a needle punching direction from the spunbond layer to the meltblown layer; The conditions for cold pressing include: the area of the cold pressing point is 3~20%, and the cold pressing temperature is 125~135℃; The stretching conditions include: warp and weft stretching, with a tensile strength of 30~50 N / 50m.
[0006] This invention provides a method for preparing an elastic sanitary material. The method uses spunbond fabric and meltblown fabric to prepare the elastic material. The meltblown fabric fibers are made of TPU resin, which gives the elastic material excellent wrinkle resistance, water resistance, and breathability. The spunbond fabric fibers have a core-sheath structure with a PE resin outer layer and a PP resin core layer. This spunbond fabric has an ultra-soft touch and excellent waterproof and breathable properties, providing excellent comfort against the skin and significantly improving the user experience. Traditional composite processes often use infrared welding to fuse the spunbond and meltblown layers together. However, this invention discovers that after welding, the composite points melt and solidify into a single unit. Simultaneously, the pore structure inside the fibers is destroyed during welding, resulting in a significant reduction in the material's breathability.
[0007] Therefore, to solve the above problems, this invention provides a composite method of needle punching, cold pressing, and stretching. First, needle punching is performed to insert the spunbond layer into the meltblown layer from the direction of the spunbond layer. The spunbond fibers are penetrated and entangled in the meltblown layer. Then, a pressure head is used to press the needle punch points. The cold pressing head is set to a specific temperature. At this specific temperature, the PE resin in the outer layer of the spunbond fibers melts, while the PP resin in the core layer remains solidified. The melted PE resin bonds at the entanglement points, forming anchor points for the spunbond fibers within the meltblown layer, significantly enhancing the composite strength of the spunbond and meltblown layers. During cold pressing, the needle punches can be compressed and reduced in size. Finally, stretching is performed to reduce the pressure generated during cold pressing. The needle-punching process is used to flatten the spunbond layer and close the needle holes, improving the uniformity of the spunbond layer surface. The resulting elastic sanitary material has high surface uniformity and flatness, resulting in excellent skin adhesion during use. It also avoids hard nodes caused by welding, significantly improving comfort. The internal meltblown fiber structure of the resulting elastic sanitary material remains intact, ensuring that the breathability of the meltblown material is not significantly altered. Furthermore, the composite strength of the meltblown and spunbond layers obtained through this method is significantly higher than that obtained using only needle-punching. It remains undelaminated even under continuous high-intensity rubbing, providing users with an excellent experience during high-intensity activities.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following technical effects: This invention provides a method for preparing an elastic sanitary material. The method employs a composite process of needle punching, cold pressing, and stretching to bond a spunbond layer and a meltblown layer. The spunbond layer has a core-skin structure consisting of a PE resin outer layer and a PP resin core layer. The meltblown layer is a TPU meltblown layer. Needling allows the fibers of the spunbond layer to penetrate the meltblown layer, improving the connectivity between the fibers. Cold pressing at the needle punches melts the PP resin on the surface of the spunbond fibers, allowing the melted PP resin to act as an adhesive, further enhancing the bonding strength. Simultaneously, cold pressing reduces the size of the needle punches. Stretching then closes the needle punches and flattens the pressure points, significantly improving the uniformity of the spunbond layer surface. This elastic material is soft, conforms well to the skin, is highly breathable, significantly improves comfort, and has no hard, clumpy feel. Detailed Implementation

In the wrinkle resistance test of this elastic sanitary material, after 800 cycles of rubbing, the breathability ranged from 8527 mm / s to 8614 mm / s, and the peel strength remained at 6.6 N / M. 2 Up to 7.4 N / M 2 It is evident that the elastic sanitary material prepared by this invention has excellent resistance to rubbing. After high-intensity rubbing, the composite strength and breathability do not decrease significantly. In addition, after rubbing, the elastic material has no obvious creases or roughness, and its softness and comfort do not change significantly, resulting in an excellent user experience.
[0035] Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were performed using an ultrasonic welding machine and an infrared hot press roller, respectively, for welding and bonding. The results of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 showed that the peel strength of the composite elastic sanitary material was 8.2 N / M. 2 Up to 8.4 N / M 2 The air permeability was only 5421 mm / s to 5829 mm / s. Compared with Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 2 showed no significant difference in composite strength, but the air permeability was significantly reduced. In addition, the elastic sanitary materials of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were damaged after being rubbed. This was due to the welding or the appearance of large weld points. The weld points damaged the surrounding fibers during the rubbing process, resulting in damage to the elastic sanitary materials and poor rubbing resistance.
[0036] In Comparative Example 3, no cold pressing was used; only needle punching and stretching were employed. The results showed that the peel strength of the elastic sanitary material treated only with needle punching was lower, significantly lower than that of the example.
[0037] Comparative Example 4, which did not undergo needle punching treatment but only cold pressing and stretching treatment, showed that the peel strength of the elastic sanitary material treated only with cold pressing and stretching was only 4.8, which was significantly reduced and had a better application effect.
[0038] Comparative Example 5 was not stretched. Although not stretching did not significantly affect breathability and peel strength, pressure point depressions and needle-punch gaps appeared on the surface of the elastic material, resulting in lower adhesion between the elastic material and the skin.
[0039] In Comparative Example 6, the spunbond layer fibers were made from a blend of PP and PE resins. The results showed that the peel strength of Comparative Example 6 was only 4.6 N / M. 2 Further analysis revealed that the spunbond fibers after melt blending were deformed, and their structural strength was significantly reduced. During needle punching, they could not form effective entanglement points inside the meltblown layer, and the fibers used as anchor points were easily broken during peeling.
[0040] Comparative Examples 7 and 8 respectively set up cases where the cold pressing temperature was too low and too high. When the cold pressing temperature was too low, the spunbond fiber skin could not melt, resulting in the inability to form an adhesion at the entanglement point and a significant reduction in peel strength. When the cold pressing temperature was too high, the spunbond fiber would melt completely, and the fiber would break before it entered the meltblown layer during needle punching. After being heated and stretched, the composite points were pulled apart, and the composite strength was significantly reduced.
[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Any simple modifications, alterations, and equivalent transformations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
