(filter material for air filters)
The filter material 1 used in the present embodiment is such as the filter material used in air purifier, and as shown in Figure 1, it has trapping layer 3.Fig. 1 is the sectional view of the Rotating fields that filter material 1 is shown.
Trapping layer 3, for the particulate of the dust in captured gas etc., is disposed of the end of the upstream side in the direction becoming air permeable filter material 1.In addition, in FIG, below is upstream side, and top is downstream.
Trapping layer 3 is made up of melt spraying non-woven fabrics, or is made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric.In addition, in this manual, the fibre diameter of the trapping layer be made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric is 1 μm ~ 10 μm, and thickness is 0.1mm ~ 0.6mm, and mass area ratio is 20g/m 2~ 40g/m 2.Especially, in staple fiber nonwoven fabric, melt spraying non-woven fabrics, by being implemented electret process, is suitable as the filter material of the trapping excellent performance of the particulate to particle diameter very little (such as 0.3 μm ~ 1 μm).In addition, electret processing example is in this way by implementing applying DC voltage non-woven fabrics.
Melt spraying non-woven fabrics is such as formed as follows: extrude molten resin constituent, become trickle resin flow, this resin flow is contacted with heated air at a high speed, becomes the discontinuous fibre that fibre diameter is trickle, and by this fiber aggregate on porous supporting mass.The mass area ratio of melt spraying non-woven fabrics is 5g/m 2~ 100g/m 2, be preferably 10g/m 2~ 80g/m 2.The diameter of fiber is 0.1 μm ~ 10 μm, is preferably 1 μm ~ 6 μm, is more preferably 3.0 μm ~ 3.7 μm.In this manual, the diameter of fiber means fiber diameter.Fiber diameter is the average of this fibre diameter of more than 100 using the diameter of the fiber of determination of electron microscopy more than 100 and obtain.By making the diameter of fiber be in above-mentioned scope, when carrying out electret process, obtain charged after the high filter material of arresting efficiency, and, the pressure loss of filter material can be made to maintain lower (such as below 20Pa).The average fiber length of fiber is 50mm ~ 200mm, is preferably 80mm ~ 150mm.
In the material of melt spraying non-woven fabrics, such as from polyethylene, ethylene-propylene copolymer, ethylene-butene copolymer, the vinyl copolymers such as ethylene-octene copolymer, polypropylene or propylene copolymer, the polyolefin such as polybutene, 6-nylon, 66-nylon, 666 copolyamides, 610-nylon, 11-nylon, the polyamide of 12-nylon etc. or copolyamide, polyethylene terephthalate, terephthalate copolymer, the polyester such as polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), aliphatic category Merlon, polyurethane elastomer, polyvinyl chloride-based or copolymer, Wholly aromatic polyester, the polymer of at least a kind that selects in polyphenylene sulfide etc.Wherein, for melt-blownly having excellent formability, cost is low and in the manufacture of melt spraying non-woven fabrics, be mixed into the extremely low reason of the possibility that can not become the fibrous polymer drops being referred to as ball (shot), is preferably polypropylene.
In addition, filter material 1 preferably comprises the enhancement Layer 5 be layered on trapping layer 3.Enhancement Layer 5, to be configured in the mode of the end of the upstream side of filter material 1, is configured in the upstream side of trapping layer 3.Enhancement Layer 5 supports trapping layer 3, strengthens the trapping layer 3 that rigidity is less.Enhancement Layer 5 pairs of particle diameters are that the arresting efficiency of the particle of 0.3 μm is lower than trapping layer 3.
Enhancement Layer 5 is made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric.As mentioned above, because trapping layer 3 is made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric, therefore, filter material 1 entirety is made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric.Therefore, compared with being the filter material be made up of nonwoven fabric of long fibers or the filter material comprising nonwoven fabric of long fibers with entirety, filter material 1 is thin and light, easily carries out fold processing.In addition, in this manual, the fibre diameter of the enhancement Layer be made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric is 15 μm ~ 30 μm, and thickness is more than 0.2mm and is less than 1.0mm, and mass area ratio is 60g/m 2~ 110g/m 2.
As such enhancement Layer 5, such as, can enumerate the non-woven fabrics (following, respectively also referred to as chemical bond non-woven fabrics, thermal non-woven fabrics) made by chemical bonding processes or thermal method.Chemical bond non-woven fabrics is produced by the bonding short fiber of adhesive.Can, by applying heat to short fiber, short fiber being bonded to each other, making thermal non-woven fabrics thus, any one non-woven fabrics can be made by known method.As trapping layer 5, in these non-woven fabrics, be preferably made up of chemical bond non-woven fabrics.When for filter material 1, compared with thermal non-woven fabrics, chemical bond non-woven fabrics easily obtains the filter material 1 of higher firm softness, easily firm softness is adjusted to the scope more than 6mN.
Chemical bond non-woven fabrics or thermal non-woven fabrics and trapping layer 3 stacked such as by using bonding agent to make two layers bond to carry out.In addition, the bonding carrying out 2 kinds of non-woven fabrics with the following method can be made: scatter thermoplasticity and the method for the heat-fusible resin powder of low melting point; The method of moisture-curable polyurethane resin is scattered by spray-on process; Or, scatter thermoplastic resin, thermal welding fiber make it by the method etc. of the passage of heat.
Trapping layer 3 and the stacked of enhancement Layer 5 can carry out before electret treatment process.That is, can be laminated in after on trapping layer 3 at enhancement Layer 5, electret process is implemented to this duplexer.
In addition, enhancement Layer can be layered in the both sides of trapping layer.
In filter material 1, trapping layer 3 and enhancement Layer 5 can be single or multiple lift respectively.
The firm softness of filter material 1 is more than 6mN.Firm softness is that Ge Li (Gurley) method by recording in JIS-L1085-6.10.3 determines, and is the bending least index representing fiber etc.In this manual, firm softness means the firm softness of the length direction (MD (machinedirection: machine direction) direction) of filter material.Because the firm softness of filter material 1 is in such scope, therefore, it is possible to suppress filter material 1 to be out of shape because of blast in use, thus structural drag is made to increase.Especially, filter material 1 is made up of staple fiber nonwoven fabric, easily carries out fold processing, therefore, considers this point, firm softness can be set in the above-mentioned scope lower than the filter material comprising nonwoven fabric of long fibers.When considering fold on process ease, the higher limit of firm softness is preferably 30mN, such as, be 20mN.
The mass area ratio of filter material 1 is preferably 80g/m 2~ 150g/m 2.When the mass area ratio of filter material 1 is in this scope, easily obtain the filter material 1 of firm softness more than 6mN.
In addition, the thickness of filter material 1 is preferably 0.3mm ~ 1.6mm.When the thickness of filter material 1 is in this scope, easily obtain the filter material 1 of firm softness more than 6mN.
Filter material 1 pair of particle diameter is that the charged front arresting efficiency of 0.3 μm is preferably 15% ~ 50%.Arresting efficiency before charged mean by electret process described later carry out charged before the arresting efficiency of filter material.Arresting efficiency before charged can use charged before filter material or the filter material after going electric treatment implemented to the filter material after charged obtain.In addition, in the explanation afterwards of the arresting efficiency before charged, the arresting efficiency after electricity is referred to.
In addition, because trapping layer 3 has been implemented electret process, therefore, the arresting efficiency of (such as, less than 1 μm) particulate that filter material 1 pair of particle diameter is little rises.For the viewpoint improving the arresting efficiency of trapping layer be made up of melt spraying non-woven fabrics, the carried charge (surface charge density) of filter material 1 is preferably less than 3 × 10 -10~ 10 × 10 -10c/cm 2.In addition, the carried charge of filter material can be adjusted to above-mentioned scope by known electret process.Carried charge is such as the value according to JIS-C61340-2-2, specifically, by faraday cup (Faradaycage) (MODEL-TR8031, Adc Inc.'s system)) be connected with electronic digital scale 8252 (Adc Inc.'s system), the value (charged particles amount) determined under charge quantity measuring pattern.
The pressure loss of filter material 1 when filter material is 5.3cm/ second through wind speed is preferably below 20Pa.
Filter material 1 can load antiseptic.Antiseptic such as has antibiotic property and deodorization, can enumerate the metal constituent comprising iron, aluminium, titanium etc. respectively micro-ly.
(crease processing method)
As mentioned above, the method for present embodiment comprises step filter material 1 being implemented to fold processing.Fold processing is by being folded into zigzag manner to carry out by filter material 1.Specifically, the compression carried out in this step for the multiple peak portion be arranged in the upstream side in the direction that gas passes through and the regional in downstream be folded in the filter material for air filters of zigzag manner is heated.
Herein, use the device shown in Fig. 2 to illustrate to carry out compressing situation about heating.Fig. 2 carries out compressing the device heated.This device carries out fold processing in complex way.
In the apparatus, filter material is transported to downstream by multiple roller from the filter material roller being rolled into roll, adds machine 11, filter material folding machine 13, heater 4a, 4b, hot melt coating machine 12, filter material folding machine 15 process successively by muscle.Muscle adds machine 11 by adding the muscle as the folding line of fold in advance on filter material, makes easily to utilize filter material folding machine 13 that filter material 1 is folded into zigzag manner.By making two blade alternating movements up and down of filter material folding machine 13, the filter material being attached with muscle is folded into zigzag manner.The filter material being folded into zigzag manner is directed between heater 4a, 4b of the downstream being configured in filter material folding machine 13.Heater 4a, 4b are the heaters of the tabular with mutually the same area, are configured to parallel and relatively.Distance between heater 4a, 4b is adjusted to the length slightly shorter than the folding width of filter material, thus presses the filter material (compression) be directed between heater 4a, 4b gently at above-below direction.Thus, filter material by during between heater 4a, 4b in side towards downstream, is implemented compression and heats.During carrying out compression and heating, according to the speed sending filter material, filter material remains and is folded into zigzag manner state and is transported to downstream.The filter material that have passed between heater 4a, 4b temporarily expands to sheet herein, and next, by the hot melt coating machine 12 being configured in two positions, two-sided coated hot melt strip, forms sept.In addition, filter material, by filter material folding machine 15, is folded into zigzag manner in the same manner as filter material folding machine 13.Like this fold processing is carried out to filter material.Filter material carries out fold processing by this device, becomes the filter material being processed into zigzag manner, and forms sept, thus become filter bag.
In addition, such as, can substitute reciprocating mode, carry out fold processing in a rotative pattern.
It is more than 80 DEG C and less than 90 DEG C and carry out under the condition of 15 minutes ~ 30 minutes that the compression of above-mentioned heater 4a, 4b is heated.Find following situation: heat by carrying out compression with such heating-up temperature, heat time, even if for the filter material of firm softness with regulation, the folding line of the fold after fold processing also remains stable, and the trapping performance of the melt spraying non-woven fabrics after electret process also can not decline.
When heating-up temperature is below 80 DEG C, firm softness can be expanded to circular arc along with the time passes through more than the folding line of the fold of the filter material of 6mN.On the other hand, when heating-up temperature is more than 90 DEG C, the chargeding performance of filter material declines, the trapping performance impairment of the filter material after electret process.In addition, if the heat time is less than 15 minutes, heat even if then carry out compression in the scope of above-mentioned heating-up temperature, the folding line with the fold of the filter material of the firm softness of regulation also passes through along with the time and becomes no longer clear.Especially, as said apparatus from the filter material that filter material roller provides, owing to being had crimpiness by with stipulated time roll keeping, therefore, filter material can be the power of arc-shaped and be more prone to the sharpness of the folding line losing fold because of flexure.On the other hand, if the heat time surpasses 30 minutes, then, when carrying out compression heating in the scope of above-mentioned heating-up temperature, filter material is subject to the damage caused by thermal conductance, makes the trapping performance impairment of the filter material after electret process.
The filter material of zigzag manner is in compression is heated, the top being arranged in the multiple peak portion in the region of the upstream side (being top in fig. 2) of gas during use connects with the lower surface of heater 4a respectively, further, the top being arranged in the multiple peak portion in the region in the downstream (being below in fig. 2) of gas during use connects with the upper surface of heater 4b respectively.Thus, compression being heated the damage suppression of the part beyond the top in the peak portion of filter material is bottom line.In addition, the heat time is transported to play between heater 4a, 4b from filter material and leaves between heater 4a, 4b, rests on time between heater 4a, 4b.
In above-mentioned fold processing, filter material folding width, peak number (being arranged in the quantity in the peak portion in the region of the side in upstream side and downstream) are not particularly limited, and such as, filter material peak number is 120, and folding width is 60mm.
The heating-up temperature of heater 4a, 4b can be equal, also can be different.Such as, when filter material for the trapping layer shown in Fig. 1 and the two-layer structure of enhancement Layer and the trapping layer of melt spraying non-woven fabrics be made up of the fibrous material of the melting point material lower than the enhancement Layer of chemical bond non-woven fabrics, in the scope being in above-mentioned heating-up temperature by making the temperature of heater 4a and lower than the temperature of heater 4b, the damage caused because of the heat of trapping layer can be suppressed, suppress the deterioration of trapping performance.
In compression is heated, the heating-up temperature for the peak portion be arranged in the region of upstream side can be different from the heating-up temperature for the peak portion be arranged in the region in downstream.
The trapping layer of filter material for air filters is configured to the end of the upstream side becoming the direction that gas passes through or the end in downstream, in compression is heated, the heating-up temperature for the peak portion be arranged in the region of the side same side becoming end with the trapping layer in upstream side and downstream can lower than the heating-up temperature for the peak portion be arranged in the region of the side not homonymy becoming end with trapping layer.
In addition, in heater 4a, 4b, in the scope of above-mentioned heating-up temperature, thermograde can be had on the throughput direction of filter material.Can be such as that, from the end of the upstream side of heater 4a, 4b, along with the end towards downstream, temperature reduces gradually.In this case, by changing the allocation position being distributed in thermoelectricity line in heater 4a, 4b, such thermograde can be formed.In addition, in the scope of above-mentioned heat time, the transporting velocity of the filter material between heater 4a, 4b can be different with throughput direction.Such as, the rate of delivery of the filter material of the roller in the downstream of heater 4a, 4b can be made faster than the speed inweaved by filter material folding machine 13.
In compression is heated, the heat time of heater 4a and heater 4b can be equal, also can be different.As different situations, such as can control as follows: in heater 4a, carry out temperature control, to make the temperature become in whole parts of filter material throughput direction in the scope of above-mentioned heating-up temperature, and, temperature control is carried out, to make to become the temperature lower than above-mentioned heating-up temperature in the part in the downstream of filter material throughput direction in heater 4b.
Compression described in patent document 2 is heated and is carried out (with reference to paragraph 0009) for the viewpoint of the trapping hydraulic performance decline suppressing electret filter material, such as, when the filter material be made up of melt spraying non-woven fabrics and chemical bond enhancement Layer, in the scope of 60 DEG C ~ 80 DEG C, carry out compression heat.In the past, about the filter material comprising such melt spraying non-woven fabrics, the compression heating of the temperature thought more than 80 DEG C can reduce the trapping performance of filter material, but according to the research of the present inventor, be surprised to find that: except the heating-up temperature that fold adds man-hour, by controlling the heat time in the lump, thus, even more than the temperature of 80 DEG C, the decline of the trapping performance of the filter material after implementing electret process also can be suppressed.Especially, find: the melt spraying non-woven fabrics as staple fiber nonwoven fabric is suitable as the electret filter material of trapping excellent performance, on the other hand, because its fibre structure is trickle, therefore easily sustain damage under the high temperature conditions, but according to above-mentioned heating condition, inhibit the decline of trapping performance.And find: under this heating condition, compared with the past, the filter material that firm softness is high also maintains the sharpness of the folding line of fold.
Method according to the present embodiment, by on the basis regulating heating-up temperature, the further adjustment heat time, the decline of the trapping performance of electret filter material can be suppressed, and can heat by the compression more than 80 DEG C the folding line stably maintaining the fold of the high filter material of firm softness, thus, the rising of structural drag when inhibit use.
The filter material that method according to the present embodiment implements fold processing is such as set as the filter bag comprising the part shown in Fig. 3.Fig. 3 is the stereoscopic figure of the part that filter bag is shown.In figure 3, in order to easy understand, illustrate under the state of a part cutting filter bag 20.Filter bag 20 is made up of the filter material machined and sept 23.Sept 23 is the intervals (fold interval) on the summit in order to stably keep adjacent two peaks portion, the resinous hot melt strip formed on the surface of filter material 1.Hot melt strip is formed as in two surfaces of filter material 1, such as, extending in the mode that the folding line in the peak portion with fold is vertical.On the doubling direction of fold, (such as 25mm or 50mm) spaced apart is provided with multiple hot melt strip, and they extend parallel to each other.
In addition, filter material remains in framework by the filter bag of above-mentioned mini fold-type further, forms the such air filter unit shown in Fig. 4 thus.Fig. 4 is the outside drawing that air filter unit is shown.Air filter unit 30 has filter material 1, framework 31 and odor removal filter (not shown).
Framework 31 is parts of mouthful shape, keeps filter material 1, keep the zigzag manner of filter bag 20 by the space in inner side.Framework 31 is made up of the spun-bonded non-woven fabrics of polyester.Framework 31 is not particularly limited, such as, can have the firm softness of 40mN ~ 170mN degree.Odor removal filter is coating deodorant and the non-woven fabrics making deodorant dry, is applicable to situation air filter unit 30 being used for air purifier.Framework 41 can combine metal or plastic sheet material makes.
