Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polyethylene film production, and in particular relates to a method for preparing an ultra-thin polyethylene microporous breathable film for diapers. Background Art
[0002] The structure of the microporous breathable membrane is formed by adding incompatible inorganic microparticle porogens to the polymer and stretching it. There are many capillary-like micropores in its structure, which constitute a channel for the sequential passage of gas. However, since the diameter of the external liquid droplets is larger than the diameter of the micropores, they cannot pass through, thus having breathable and waterproof functional characteristics. Microporous breathable membranes are currently mainly used in the fields of personal hygiene care products and the medical field, such as sanitary napkins, panty liners, diapers, adult incontinence products, and medical or surgical disposables. However, from the current application point of view, most of them are produced by the cast film process, which generally has problems such as "easy to shrink, low resistance to hydrostatic pressure, and high gram weight", and the process needs to be further improved.
[0003] Chinese patent CN108623875A discloses a composite material for high-strength breathable membrane and its preparation method, which uses bimodal polyethylene as a substrate, blends metallocene polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, and inorganic calcium carbonate into granules, and forms a breathable membrane through cast molding, which has excellent waterproof and breathable functions and a strength of more than 2000g / m 2 / 24h water vapor transmission rate, used in diapers, sanitary napkins and other hygiene products.
[0004] Chinese patent CN107746499B discloses a biaxially stretched breathable film, which mainly uses 30kg of low-density polyethylene, 20kg of ultrafine calcium carbonate powder, 10kg of antibacterial masterbatch, 1kg of dimethyl silicone rheological agent, and 3kg of dodecylamine polyoxyethylene ether dispersant. After granulation by a twin-screw extruder, a single-screw film blowing molding is performed on a film blowing machine, wherein the screw aspect ratio is 30:1, the blowing ratio is 3:1, and the biaxial stretching technology of film blowing transverse stretching and then longitudinal stretching is adopted to form a microporous breathable film. However, it adopts single-screw single-layer film blowing molding, does not have a multi-layer interlayer design, and the film blowing biaxial stretching technology is ordinary traction stretching, without multi-roller MDO stretching annealing cooling.
[0005] Chinese patent CN111890767A discloses an ultra-thin polyethylene microporous breathable film and a preparation method thereof. The breathable film comprises an outer layer, a middle layer and an inner layer which are co-extruded by a film blowing machine. The material of the inner layer is blended by a weight ratio of 45-60 kg of calcium carbonate masterbatch, 25-30 kg of polyethylene, 18-25 kg of ethylene and octene copolymer polyethylene, and 1-3 kg of lubricant; the material of the middle layer is blended by a weight ratio of 60-70 kg of calcium carbonate masterbatch, 25-30 kg of polyethylene, and 1-3 kg of lubricant; the material of the outer layer is blended by a weight ratio of 45-60 kg of calcium carbonate masterbatch, 25-30 kg of polyethylene, 18-25 kg of ethylene and octene copolymer polyethylene, and 1-3 kg of lubricant. However, it adopts three-layer co-extrusion molding, the thickness of a single layer is relatively high, and the air permeability is average. In addition, due to the use of a relatively high content of calcium carbonate masterbatch, agglomeration is easy to occur during the mixing process, which leads to the precipitation of the calcium carbonate masterbatch after the film is prepared, affecting the air permeability and uniformity of micropore distribution. In addition, the precipitated calcium carbonate masterbatch is easy to cause allergies, which seriously limits its application in the field of personal hygiene care products and the medical field.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a method for preparing a microporous breathable membrane to improve the air permeability and uniformity of raw material mixing. Summary of the invention

A method for preparing the ultra-thin polyethylene microporous breathable film for diapers according to any one of claims 1 to 5, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: (1) Preparing calcium carbonate masterbatch: drying and dehumidifying calcium carbonate, antibacterial agent, silane coupling agent, antioxidant, and lubricant, mixing them evenly, and granulating them to obtain calcium carbonate masterbatch; (2) Preparation of five layers of raw materials: Inner layer: calcium carbonate masterbatch, polyethylene and lubricant are blended to obtain the inner layer raw material; Second inner layer: calcium carbonate masterbatch, polyethylene and lubricant are blended to obtain the second inner layer raw material; Middle layer: calcium carbonate masterbatch, polyethylene and lubricant are blended to obtain the middle layer raw material; Second outer layer: raw material obtained by blending calcium carbonate masterbatch, polyethylene and lubricant; Outer layer: calcium carbonate masterbatch, polyethylene and lubricant are blended to obtain the outer layer raw material; (3) Blow molding: blow molding a total of five layers including inner layer, sub-inner layer, middle layer, sub-outer layer and outer layer, and air cooling to obtain a polyethylene film; (4) MDO stretching: After the polyethylene film is cooled and flattened, a twelve-roller differential longitudinal stretching process is used to prepare a breathable film, which is then corona treated and rolled up to obtain an ultra-thin polyethylene microporous breathable film.
7. The preparation method according to claim 6, characterized in that: The blow ratio during blow molding in step (3) is 2.0-3.2:
