Description
本発明は、衛生製品の、トップシート、バックシート、サイドギャザー部等の吸収性部材において使用するのに特に適した不織布であって、加工性に優れるポリオレフィン系長繊維で構成された不織布に関する。 The present invention relates to a nonwoven fabric particularly suitable for use in absorbent members such as topsheets, backsheets, and side gather parts of sanitary products, and relates to a nonwoven fabric composed of polyolefin-based long fibers excellent in processability.
近年、使い捨てオムツ等の、不織布で構成された衛生製品の普及はめざましく、その生産量も急増してきている。このような環境下、例えば使い捨てオムツにおいて、その製造ラインでのロスの減少及び品質の安定性が重要である。オムツ製造ラインにおいて、素材となる不織布の地合が悪いと、吸収体であるＳＡＰ（超吸収性ポリマー）の漏れの問題、及びフィルムと不織布との貼り合わせ工程でホットメルト剤が不織布を抜けてしまうという問題等、様々な不具合が生じる。一方、バックシート用途においては、不織布の地合が悪い場合、不織布の厚みにムラがあり不織布の白色に濃淡があると、不織布の繊維が多く白色が濃い箇所では、バックシートの内側に一般的に使用しているキャラクター等が印刷されているフィルムの印刷が、最外層となる不織布側から見ると不鮮明になるという問題が生じ、また不織布の繊維が少なく白色が薄い箇所では排泄物が表面に見えてしまうという問題が生じる。 In recent years, sanitary products composed of nonwoven fabrics such as disposable diapers have been remarkably widespread, and their production volume has been rapidly increasing. Under such circumstances, for example, in disposable diapers, loss reduction and quality stability in the production line are important. In the diaper production line, if the nonwoven fabric used as the raw material is not well formed, the hot melt agent will pass through the nonwoven fabric in the bonding process between the film and the nonwoven fabric, as well as the SAP (super absorbent polymer) leakage. Various problems occur, such as the problem of end. On the other hand, in the backsheet application, if the nonwoven fabric is not well formed, the thickness of the nonwoven fabric is uneven, and the white color of the nonwoven fabric is generally dark inside. There is a problem that the printing of the film on which the characters etc. used for printing are printed becomes unclear when viewed from the non-woven fabric side which is the outermost layer. The problem of being visible arises.
従来、不織布の粉漏れ防止性及び地合を改善する手段としては、目付を上げる方法、繊度を細くする方法、２層のスパンボンド不織布の間に極細の繊維であるメルトブローン不織布をサンドウィッチしてなる積層不織布を用いる方法等がある。しかし、目付を上げる方法では、目付の増大に従って柔軟性が低下するため、衛生製品に用いる場合には厚ぼったい感触となる問題がある。繊度を細くする方法では、スパンボンド法において生産性を落とすことで繊度を細くすることが可能ではあるが、商業性を考慮するとスパンボンド法における細繊化には限界がある。また、メルトブローン層を入れて積層する方法では、隠蔽性が高くなり過ぎて通気性が悪くなり、ムレ等の症状が生じる。またメルトブローン層が入ると、バックシート内側のフィルムに印刷されたキャラクター等の印刷が極細の繊維により不鮮明となる問題がある。 Conventionally, as means for improving powder leakage prevention and formation of nonwoven fabric, a method of increasing the basis weight, a method of reducing the fineness, and sandwiching a meltblown nonwoven fabric, which is an ultrafine fiber, between two layers of spunbond nonwoven fabric There is a method using a laminated nonwoven fabric. However, in the method of raising the basis weight, the flexibility decreases with an increase in the basis weight, and therefore there is a problem that the touch becomes thick when used in a sanitary product. In the method of reducing the fineness, it is possible to reduce the fineness by reducing the productivity in the spunbond method, but there is a limit to the fineness in the spunbond method considering commerciality. Moreover, in the method of laminating with a meltblown layer, the concealability becomes too high, the air permeability becomes poor, and symptoms such as swelling occur. In addition, when a meltblown layer is inserted, there is a problem that printing of characters and the like printed on the film inside the backsheet becomes unclear due to ultrafine fibers.
スパンボンド不織布を積層する方法によれば、単層の不織布のムラが複数重なることで積層体としては均一性を向上させることができる。しかし、商業的な大量生産のためには生産ラインの高速化が必須となる。生産ラインの高速化は、繊維を積層する際にウェブが吹き飛んだり、コンベア上でメクレが発生したりするという問題を生じさせるため、３層以上の積層不織布を高速で得るのは非常に困難であった。 According to the method of laminating the spunbonded nonwoven fabric, the uniformity of the laminate can be improved by overlapping a plurality of unevenness of the single layer nonwoven fabric. However, high-speed production lines are essential for commercial mass production. Speeding up the production line causes problems that webs blow away when fibers are laminated, and melee occurs on the conveyor, so it is very difficult to obtain a laminated nonwoven fabric of three or more layers at high speed. there were.
特許文献１には、細デニール繊維のスパンボンド不織布を用いて高強力で濾過性能の良好なフィルター濾材を得る方法が開示されている。また、特許文献２には、連続長繊維群を高速気流牽引装置により牽引して細化延伸させ、連続長繊維群開繊用反射板に衝突させて、良好な地合のスパンボンド不織布を得る方法が開示されている。更に、特許文献３には、捲縮糸を用いた、嵩高性に富み地合の良好な積層不織布を得る方法が開示されている。 Patent Document 1 discloses a method for obtaining a filter medium having high strength and good filtration performance using a spunbond nonwoven fabric of fine denier fibers. Further, in Patent Document 2, a continuous long fiber group is pulled by a high-speed air current pulling device and is stretched and stretched, and is collided with a continuous long fiber group opening reflector to obtain a spunbond nonwoven fabric having a good formation. A method is disclosed. Furthermore, Patent Document 3 discloses a method for obtaining a laminated nonwoven fabric having a high bulkiness and good texture using crimped yarn.
しかし、特許文献１において使用されるポリエステル樹脂は剛軟度が高く、衛生製品に使用するには柔軟性に問題が生じる。また特許文献２の技術では、地合を良好にするための開繊用反射板の調整が煩雑である。またこの文献には積層に関する記載はない。更に、特許文献３における捲縮糸を用いたスパンボンド不織布では、耐毛羽性に問題があり、これを衛生製品に使用する場合、不織布から発生した毛羽を乳児が誤飲する等の問題が生じる。 However, the polyester resin used in Patent Document 1 has a high bending resistance, which causes a problem in flexibility when used in sanitary products. Moreover, in the technique of patent document 2, adjustment of the reflecting plate for fiber opening for making a formation favorable is complicated. In addition, this document has no description regarding lamination. Furthermore, the spunbonded nonwoven fabric using the crimped yarn in Patent Document 3 has a problem in the fluff resistance, and when this is used in a sanitary product, there arises a problem that an infant accidentally swallows the fluff generated from the nonwoven fabric. .
本発明が解決しようとする課題は、衛生製品における吸収性部材であるトップシート、バックシート又はサイドギャザー部を形成するのに特に適した、地合が良好で、隠蔽性に優れ、かつホットメルト剤及びＳＡＰの漏れが少ない不織布を提供することである。 The problem to be solved by the present invention is that it is particularly suitable for forming a top sheet, a back sheet or a side gather part, which is an absorbent member in a sanitary product, has good formation, excellent concealment, and hot melt It is to provide a non-woven fabric with less leakage of the agent and SAP.
本発明者らは、上記課題を解決すべく鋭意検討し実験を重ねた結果、特定範囲の平均単糸繊度を有する繊維を含む長繊維不織布層が３層以上積層されており、かつ特定の地合指数を有する不織布積層体によれば、良好な遮蔽性、並びにホットメルト剤及びＳＡＰの漏れの低減を実現できることを見出した。更に本発明者らは、上記の不織布積層体が、不織布積層体の生産工程におけるコンパクションロールの接圧及び温度を特定範囲とし、更に、繊維を堆積させるコンベアネットの通気度を特定範囲とすることで、良好かつ確実に製造されることを見出した。一般的に、生産能力を向上させ、低い目付の不織布を生産するためには、生産ラインの高速化が必要である。しかし生産ラインを高速化すると繊維の配向がタテ流れとなり、地合が悪くなりムラが生じる。本発明者らは、コンパクションロールの接圧及び温度を特定範囲とし、かつ繊維を堆積させるコンベアネットの通気度を制御することで、長繊維不織布層のウェブを積層する際のウェブの吹き飛び及びメクレ等を防止し、該ウェブを３層以上に積層することができ、地合が良好で高い隠蔽性を有する不織布積層体を得ることができることを見出した。すなわち、本発明は以下のとおりのものである。 As a result of intensive studies and repeated experiments to solve the above problems, the present inventors have found that three or more long-fiber nonwoven fabric layers containing fibers having an average single yarn fineness within a specific range are laminated, and a specific ground. It has been found that according to the nonwoven fabric laminate having a composite index, good shielding properties and reduction of leakage of the hot melt agent and SAP can be realized. Furthermore, the present inventors make the above-mentioned nonwoven fabric laminate a specific range of the contact pressure and temperature of the compaction roll in the production process of the nonwoven fabric laminate, and further make the air permeability of the conveyor net for depositing fibers a specific range. Thus, it was found that the product was manufactured reliably and reliably. Generally, in order to improve the production capacity and produce a nonwoven fabric with a low basis weight, it is necessary to speed up the production line. However, if the production line is speeded up, the orientation of the fibers becomes a vertical flow, the formation becomes worse, and unevenness occurs. The present inventors set the contact pressure and temperature of the compaction roll within a specific range and control the air permeability of the conveyor net on which the fibers are deposited, so that the web blow-off and the meshing when laminating the webs of the long fiber nonwoven fabric layer are controlled. It was found that the web can be laminated into three or more layers, and a nonwoven fabric laminate having good formation and high concealability can be obtained. That is, the present invention is as follows.

The average single yarn fineness is preferably 0.8 dtex or more and 3.3 dtex or less, more preferably 0.9 dtex or more and 3.0 dtex or less. The average single yarn fineness is 0.7 dtex or more from the viewpoint of spinning stability, and 3.5 dtex or less from the viewpoint of the strength of the nonwoven fabric (especially important in sanitary products). The average single yarn fineness is a value obtained by measuring the fiber diameter using, for example, a microscope and calculating the number average of the measured values. What is necessary is just to select a measurement point so that the average value of the fineness in the whole one long fiber may be reflected. As an example, after removing both ends of the long fiber, a sample piece was prepared by dividing into approximately 5 equal parts in the width direction of the nonwoven fabric laminate, and the fiber diameter was measured at 20 points on each of the five fiber cross sections, and 100 points were obtained. The average single yarn fineness can be evaluated by calculating the number average.

In addition, when the MOR value is 2.0 or less, the transverse strength of the nonwoven fabric laminate can be satisfactorily obtained when used in a sanitary product. The MOR value is a value measured using a molecular orientation meter.
不織布積層体の粉漏れ率は、好ましくは３％以上５０％以下であり、より好ましくは５％以上４５％以下、更に好ましくは７．５％以上４０％以下である。粉漏れ率がこの範囲にあれば、不織布積層体の通気性を良好に保持したままホットメルト剤及びＳＡＰの漏れの問題を防止できるため、不織布積層体を衛生製品に好適に使用することができる。粉漏れ率は以下の方法で測定される値である。不織布積層体からタテ１０ｃｍ×ヨコ１０ｃｍの試料片を採取する。試料片を二つ折りにして縁を１８０℃で１０秒間ヒートシールする。その中へＪＩＳ−Ｚ８９０１試験用粉体１種ダストを約１ｇ入れ、重量Ｗ１を正確に測定し、袋状にした試料の口を同様にヒートシールする。この袋状にした試料をポリエチレンの袋に入れ、１．５ｍの高さから自然落下にて１０回落下させる。その後試料袋から漏れた粉体の重量Ｗ２を測定し、下記式に従って算出した粉漏れ率を算出する。５回の測定による数平均値を採用する。

This bag-shaped sample is put in a polyethylene bag and dropped 10 times by natural fall from a height of 1.5 m. Thereafter, the weight W2 of the powder leaked from the sample bag is measured, and the powder leakage rate calculated according to the following formula is calculated.

不織布積層体は、親水化剤を更に含んでもよい。親水化剤は、例えば、繊維中に含浸され、又は繊維表面に付着していることができる。親水化剤の使用は、例えば衛生製品のトップシート用途において不織布積層体に親水性を付与できる点で有利である。親水化剤としては、人体への安全性、工程での安全性等を考慮して、高級アルコール；高級脂肪酸；アルキルフェノール等のエチレンオキサイドを付加した非イオン系界面活性剤；アルキルフォスフェート塩、アルキル硫酸塩等のアニオン系界面活性剤；等が好適である。これらは単独で又は２種類以上の混合物として好ましく用いられる。 The nonwoven fabric laminate may further contain a hydrophilizing agent. The hydrophilizing agent can be impregnated in the fiber or attached to the fiber surface, for example. The use of a hydrophilizing agent is advantageous in that hydrophilicity can be imparted to the nonwoven fabric laminate in, for example, a top sheet application of sanitary products. As the hydrophilizing agent, considering the safety to the human body and the safety in the process, higher alcohols; higher fatty acids; nonionic surfactants added with ethylene oxide such as alkylphenols; alkyl phosphate salts, alkyls Anionic surfactants such as sulfates; etc. are preferred. These are preferably used alone or as a mixture of two or more.
親水化剤の使用量は、要求される性能によって異なるが、通常は、不織布積層体を構成している繊維１００質量％に対して０．１質量％以上１．０質量％以下が好ましく、より好ましくは０．１５質量％以上０．８質量％以下、更に好ましくは０．２質量％以上０．６質量％以下である。使用量がこの範囲にあると、例えば衛生製品のトップシートに要求される親水性能を良好に満足し、加工性も良好となる。 The amount of use of the hydrophilizing agent varies depending on the required performance, but is usually preferably 0.1% by mass or more and 1.0% by mass or less with respect to 100% by mass of the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric laminate. Preferably they are 0.15 mass% or more and 0.8 mass% or less, More preferably, they are 0.2 mass% or more and 0.6 mass% or less. When the amount used is in this range, for example, the hydrophilic performance required for the top sheet of a sanitary product is satisfactorily satisfied, and the processability is also good.
親水化剤を含む不織布積層体を製造する方法としては、通常、希釈した親水化剤を用いた、浸漬法、噴霧法、コーティング（キスコーター又はグラビアコーターにより）法等の既存の方法を採用することができる。２種類以上を必要により予め混合した親水化剤を、水等の溶媒で希釈して繊維に塗布することも好ましい。 As a method for producing a nonwoven fabric laminate containing a hydrophilizing agent, an existing method such as a dipping method, a spraying method, or a coating (using a kiss coater or gravure coater) method using a diluted hydrophilizing agent is usually employed. Can do. It is also preferable to dilute a hydrophilic agent in which two or more kinds are mixed in advance as necessary with a solvent such as water and apply it to the fiber.
親水化剤を水等の溶媒で希釈して繊維に塗布する方法では、乾燥工程を必要とする場合がある。その際の乾燥方法としては、対流伝熱、伝導伝熱、放射伝熱等を利用した既知の方法を採用することができ、熱風又は赤外線による乾燥方法、熱接触による乾燥方法等を用いることができる。 In the method in which the hydrophilizing agent is diluted with a solvent such as water and applied to the fiber, a drying step may be required. As a drying method at that time, a known method using convective heat transfer, conduction heat transfer, radiant heat transfer or the like can be adopted, and a drying method using hot air or infrared rays, a drying method using thermal contact, or the like can be used. it can.
不織布積層体は、柔軟化剤を更に含んでもよい。柔軟化剤としては、エステル化合物が好ましく、より好ましくは３〜６価のポリオールとモノカルボン酸とのエステル化合物が挙げられる。 The nonwoven fabric laminate may further contain a softening agent. As the softening agent, an ester compound is preferable, and an ester compound of a trivalent to hexavalent polyol and a monocarboxylic acid is more preferable.
３〜６価のポリオールとしては、例えば、グリセリン、トリメチロールプロパン等の３価のポリオール、ペンタエリスリトール、グルコース、ソルビタン、ジグリセリン、エチレングリコールジグリセリルエーテル等の４価のポリオール、トリグリセリン、トリメチロールプロパンジグリセリルエーテル等の５価のポリオール、ソルビトール、テトラグリセリン、ジペンタエリスリトール等の６価のポリオール等が挙げられる。 Examples of the trivalent to hexavalent polyol include trivalent polyols such as glycerin and trimethylolpropane, tetravalent polyols such as pentaerythritol, glucose, sorbitan, diglycerin, and ethylene glycol diglyceryl ether, triglycerin, and trimethylol. Examples include pentavalent polyols such as propanediglyceryl ether, hexavalent polyols such as sorbitol, tetraglycerin, and dipentaerythritol.
モノカルボン酸としては、例えば、オクタン酸、ドデカン酸、テトラデカン酸、オクタデカン酸、ドコサン酸、ヘキサコサン酸、オクタデセン酸、ドコセン酸、イソオクタデカン酸等のモノカルボン酸、シクロヘキサンカルボン酸等の脂環式モノカルボン酸、安息香酸、メチルベンゼンカルボン酸等の芳香族モノカルボン酸、ヒドロキシプロピオン酸、ヒドロキシオクタデカン酸、ヒドロキシオクタデセン酸等のヒドロキシ脂肪族モノカルボン酸、アルキルチオプロピオン酸等の含イオウ脂肪族モノカルボン酸等が挙げられる。 Examples of the monocarboxylic acid include alicyclic monocarboxylic acids such as octacarboxylic acid, dodecanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, octadecanoic acid, docosanoic acid, hexacosanoic acid, octadecenoic acid, docosenoic acid, isooctadecanoic acid, and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid. Aromatic monocarboxylic acids such as carboxylic acid, benzoic acid and methylbenzenecarboxylic acid, hydroxyaliphatic monocarboxylic acids such as hydroxypropionic acid, hydroxyoctadecanoic acid and hydroxyoctadecenoic acid, and sulfur-containing aliphatic monocarboxylic acids such as alkylthiopropionic acid An acid etc. are mentioned.
エステル化合物は、単一成分である必要はなく、２種類以上の混合物であってもよい。また、エステル化合物は天然物由来の油脂類であってもよい。但し、不飽和脂肪酸を含むエステル化合物は酸化されやすく紡糸時に酸化劣化し易いため、飽和の脂肪族モノカルボン酸又は芳香族モノカルボン酸が好ましい。天然物由来の油脂類としては、原料油に比べて無臭で安定であるという観点から、水素添加されたエステル化合物が好ましく用いられる。 The ester compound need not be a single component and may be a mixture of two or more. The ester compound may be a natural product-derived oil or fat. However, saturated aliphatic monocarboxylic acids or aromatic monocarboxylic acids are preferable because ester compounds containing unsaturated fatty acids are easily oxidized and easily deteriorated during spinning. As the fats and oils derived from natural products, hydrogenated ester compounds are preferably used from the viewpoint of being odorless and stable as compared with raw material oils.
エステル化合物としては、モノカルボン酸の分子量が比較的大きく、親油性が高いものが好ましい。親油性が高いことにより、ポリオレフィン系長繊維の非晶部に入り込み、結晶化を阻害して非晶領域を増加させるため、曲げ柔軟度がより小さくなる効果が得られる。 As the ester compound, a monocarboxylic acid having a relatively large molecular weight and high lipophilicity is preferable. Due to the high lipophilicity, it enters into the amorphous part of the polyolefin-based long fiber and inhibits crystallization to increase the amorphous region, so that an effect of reducing the bending flexibility can be obtained.
かかる効果を得るためには、エステル化合物の融点は７０℃以上であることが好ましく、より好ましくは８０℃以上１５０℃以下である。融点は、示差走査熱量測定装置（ＤＳＣ）で測定される値である。ＤＳＣで測定されるエステル化合物の融解ピークがブロードで、ある範囲を有する場合には、該融点は、融解ピークの最も高い点（すなわちピークトップ）の温度を意味する。なお、融点７０℃以上のエステル化合物と、他の組成物、例えば融点が７０℃未満のエステル化合物、その他の有機化合物等との混合物も使用可能である。 In order to obtain such an effect, the melting point of the ester compound is preferably 70 ° C. or higher, more preferably 80 ° C. or higher and 150 ° C. or lower. The melting point is a value measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). When the melting peak of the ester compound measured by DSC is broad and has a certain range, the melting point means the temperature at the highest point (ie peak top) of the melting peak. A mixture of an ester compound having a melting point of 70 ° C. or higher and other compositions such as an ester compound having a melting point of less than 70 ° C. or other organic compounds can also be used.
柔軟化剤、特にエステル化合物の使用量は、不織布積層体を構成する繊維１００質量％に対し、０．３質量％以上５．０質量％以下であることが好ましい。柔軟化剤（特にエステル化合物）は、少量の使用でも曲げ柔軟度及び滑り易さを著しく向上させ、０．３質量％以上であれば良好な柔軟化効果が与えられる。一方、柔軟化剤は、使用量を大きく増やしても使用量に見合った性能向上は見られない。そのため、紡糸性及び発煙性を加味し、該使用量は５．０質量％以下であることが好ましく、より好ましくは０．５質量％以上３．５質量％以下、更に好ましくは０．５質量％以上２．０質量％以下である。 The use amount of the softening agent, particularly the ester compound, is preferably 0.3% by mass or more and 5.0% by mass or less with respect to 100% by mass of the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric laminate. A softening agent (especially an ester compound) remarkably improves the bending flexibility and the slipperiness even when used in a small amount, and a good softening effect is given if it is 0.3% by mass or more. On the other hand, the softening agent does not improve the performance commensurate with the amount of use even if the amount of use is greatly increased. Therefore, in consideration of spinnability and smoke generation, the amount used is preferably 5.0% by mass or less, more preferably 0.5% by mass to 3.5% by mass, and still more preferably 0.5% by mass. % To 2.0% by mass.
不織布積層体は、強度（これは特に衛生製品において重要である）の観点から、スパンボンド不織布であることが好ましい。 The nonwoven fabric laminate is preferably a spunbonded nonwoven fabric from the viewpoint of strength (this is particularly important in sanitary products).
本発明の不織布積層体は、３層以上の長繊維不織布層を含むことによって不織布のムラが均一化されており、良好な地合を有する。不織布積層体は、４層以上の長繊維不織布層を含むことが好ましい。積層数が増えるほど、単層の不織布のムラの均一化効果が良好であり、地合は良好となる。 The nonwoven fabric laminate of the present invention includes three or more long-fiber nonwoven fabric layers so that the unevenness of the nonwoven fabric is made uniform and has a good texture. The nonwoven fabric laminate preferably includes four or more long fiber nonwoven fabric layers. As the number of layers increases, the effect of uniforming the unevenness of the single-layer nonwoven fabric becomes better, and the formation becomes better.

Another aspect of the present invention is a method for producing the nonwoven fabric laminate of the present invention described above, and includes the following steps:
A non-woven fabric layer forming step for forming a long-fiber non-woven fabric layer by depositing fiber components including polyolefin-based long fibers on a conveyor net, and three or more long-fiber non-woven fabric layers obtained in the non-woven fabric layer forming step are stacked and pressure-bonded. A crimping step for forming a nonwoven fabric laminate,
Including
Provided is a method for producing a nonwoven fabric laminate, which has a production rate of 170 m / min or more and satisfies the following relational expression: fineness [dtex] of fiber component × production rate [m / min] ≧ 200.
不織布積層体の生産速度は好ましくは１７０ｍ／分以上であり、より好ましくは２５０ｍ／分以上、更に好ましくは３００ｍ／分以上、特に好ましくは３５０ｍ／分以上である。ここで生産速度とは、繊維成分を熱圧着する際の熱圧着ロール（エンボスロール、フラットロール等）の回転速度のことである。生産速度が１７０ｍ／分以上であれば商業的な費用対効果が良好である。不織布積層体の生産速度の上限は特に限定されるものではないが、不織布積層体の安定生産の観点から、好ましくは１５００ｍ／分以下、より好ましくは１２００ｍ／分以下、更に好ましくは１０００ｍ／分以下、特に好ましくは８００ｍ／分以下である。 The production rate of the nonwoven fabric laminate is preferably 170 m / min or more, more preferably 250 m / min or more, still more preferably 300 m / min or more, and particularly preferably 350 m / min or more. Here, the production speed is the rotational speed of a thermocompression-bonding roll (embossing roll, flat roll, etc.) when the fiber component is thermocompression bonded. If the production speed is 170 m / min or more, the commercial cost-effectiveness is good. The upper limit of the production rate of the nonwoven fabric laminate is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of stable production of the nonwoven fabric laminate, it is preferably 1500 m / min or less, more preferably 1200 m / min or less, and even more preferably 1000 m / min or less. Particularly preferably, it is 800 m / min or less.
不織布積層体を製造する際、用いる繊維成分の繊度と、生産速度とは地合に大きく影響し、一般的に繊維成分の繊度は細くなるほど地合は良好となり、生産速度は遅いほど地合は良好となる。しかし、生産性を落とさず繊度を細くするためには、繊維の延伸比を大きくすることが必要であり、糸切れの問題が発生する。また、生産性を落とさず、生産速度を遅くするためには目付を大きくすることが必要であり、衛生製品に使用する薄い不織布を得ることは困難である。地合が良好な不織布積層体を商業的に生産するためには繊度と生産速度とのバランスを保つことが必要である。 When producing a nonwoven fabric laminate, the fineness of the fiber component used and the production rate greatly affect the formation.Generally, the finer the fineness of the fiber component, the better the formation, and the slower the production rate, the better the formation. It becomes good. However, in order to reduce the fineness without reducing the productivity, it is necessary to increase the draw ratio of the fiber, which causes a problem of yarn breakage. Further, in order to slow down the production speed without reducing productivity, it is necessary to increase the basis weight, and it is difficult to obtain a thin nonwoven fabric used for sanitary products. In order to produce a nonwoven fabric laminate with a good texture commercially, it is necessary to maintain a balance between fineness and production speed.
上記観点から、繊維成分の繊度［ｄｔｅｘ］×生産速度［ｍ／分］の値は、好ましくは２００以上、より好ましくは３００以上、更に好ましくは３５０以上である。上限は特に限定されないが、衛生製品に適した柔軟性を得るため、また不織布を安定的に得るために、好ましくは３５００以下、より好ましくは３０００以下、更に好ましくは２５００以下、特に好ましくは１７００以下である。なお繊維成分の繊度は、繊度の異なる繊維を含む不織布の場合、最も多量に含まれている繊維についての繊度を意味する。 From the above viewpoint, the value of the fineness [dtex] × production rate [m / min] of the fiber component is preferably 200 or more, more preferably 300 or more, and still more preferably 350 or more. The upper limit is not particularly limited, but preferably 3500 or less, more preferably 3000 or less, still more preferably 2500 or less, particularly preferably 1700 or less, in order to obtain flexibility suitable for hygiene products and to obtain a nonwoven fabric stably. It is. In addition, the fineness of a fiber component means the fineness about the fiber contained most in the case of the nonwoven fabric containing the fiber from which fineness differs.
不織布積層体は、コンパクションロールの温度を、ポリオレフィン系長繊維の融点よりも、好ましくは０℃以上６０℃以下低く、より好ましくは１５℃以上５５℃以下低く、更に好ましくは３０℃以上５０℃以下低く設定して得られる。２種類以上のポリオレフィン系長繊維を組み合わせる場合、上記ポリオレフィン系長繊維の融点とは、主成分となるポリオレフィン系長繊維の融点を意味する。 In the nonwoven fabric laminate, the temperature of the compaction roll is preferably 0 ° C. or higher and 60 ° C. or lower, more preferably 15 ° C. or higher and 55 ° C. or lower, more preferably 30 ° C. or higher and 50 ° C. or lower, than the melting point of the polyolefin-based long fibers. Obtained by setting it low. When two or more types of polyolefin long fibers are combined, the melting point of the polyolefin long fibers means the melting point of the polyolefin long fibers as the main component.

[Comparative Example 3]
A long fiber web having an average single yarn fineness of 1.8 dtex was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1. Next, a polypropylene resin having an MFR of 1200 was spun by the melt blown method under the conditions of a spinning temperature of 260 ° C., heated air of 280 ° C., and discharge air of 600 Nm 3 / hour / m, an average fiber diameter of 1.8 μm, and an average single yarn fineness. 0.023 dtex polypropylene fibers were jetted directly towards the long fiber web prepared above. At this time, the distance from the melt blown nozzle to the upper surface of the long fiber web was set to 100 mm, and suction on the collecting surface immediately below the melt blown nozzle was set to 0.2 kPa and the wind speed was about 7 m / sec. Further, polypropylene fibers prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 were laminated to obtain a three-layer laminated web composed of spunbond / meltblown / spunbond.
次いで、スパンボンド／メルトブローン／スパンボンドの３層積層ウェブを、フラットロールとエンボスロール（パターン仕様：直径０．４２５ｍｍ円形、千鳥配列、横ピッチ２．１ｍｍ、縦ピッチ１．１ｍｍ、圧着面積率６．３％）の間に通して温度１３５℃及び線圧３５ｋｇｆ／ｃｍで繊維同士を接着し、生産速度４００ｍ／分で不織布積層体を得た。得られた不織布積層体は、トータル目付１５ｇ／ｍ2、メルトブローン繊維の比率が１３ｗｔ％であった。 Subsequently, a spunbond / meltblown / spunbond three-layer laminated web is formed by using a flat roll and an emboss roll (pattern specification: diameter 0.425 mm circular, staggered arrangement, horizontal pitch 2.1 mm, vertical pitch 1.1 mm, crimping area ratio 6 3%), the fibers were bonded at a temperature of 135 ° C. and a linear pressure of 35 kgf / cm, and a nonwoven fabric laminate was obtained at a production rate of 400 m / min. The obtained nonwoven fabric laminate had a total basis weight of 15 g / m 2 and a meltblown fiber ratio of 13 wt%.
本発明の不織布積層体は、地合が良好で、隠蔽性に優れ、かつホットメルト剤及びＳＡＰの漏れが少ない。また本発明の不織布積層体は良好な生産性で製造できるため商業的生産に有利である。本発明の不織布積層体は衛生製品のトップシート、バックシート、サイドギャザー等に好適に利用可能である。 The nonwoven fabric laminate of the present invention has a good formation, excellent concealability, and little leakage of hot melt agent and SAP. Moreover, since the nonwoven fabric laminated body of this invention can be manufactured with favorable productivity, it is advantageous for commercial production.
