Definitions

  • the invention relates to a process for the production of nonwoven fabrics made from cotton, and to the nonwoven cotton fabrics that are made thereby.
  • Nonwoven fabrics that are made by the fluid rearrangement of fibers have been in commercial use for some time.
  • Kalwaites in U.S. Patent Nos. 2,862,251, 3,033,721, 3,931,436, and 3,769,659
  • Griswold in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,081,515 and 3,025,585, describe various processes for producing nonwoven fabrics by the fluid rearrangement of a fibrous web to which resin binder is added after the fluid rearrangement to form a useful, coherent, nonwoven fabric.
  • Still other nonwoven fabrics are made by forming a web of fibers and treating it with high pressure jets to entangle the fibers and produce a strong fabric that does not require the addition of binder to be self-supporting and useful for many purposes.
  • Such a technique is described by Evans, in U.S. Patent No. 3,485,706.
  • the invention provides a process wherein an array of gray cotton fibers is carried on a foraminous belt under a series of water sprays or jets, wherein the water sprays or jets are maintained under low frequency oscillation, whereby the cotton fibers are rearranged by the water to form a coherent web of patterned gray cotton fibers.
  • This coherent web preferably without drying, is then treated to conventional cotton bleaching techniques, and is then dried, to produce a strong, coherent cotton nonwoven fabric.
  • the invention also provides the nonwoven cotton fabric that is produced by the process of the invention.
  • Bunting et al. in U.S. Patent Nos. 3,493,462, 3,508,308, and 3,620,903, describe a process for producing lightweight, nonpatterned, nonwoven fabrics, by treating an array of fibers to essentially columnar streams of liquid jetted from orifices under high pressure.
  • the jet streams may be rapidly oscillated, which oscillation is done for the purpose of producing a smooth fabric surface and to. enhance the nonpatterned structure of the nonwoven fabric.
  • a carded web 12 of gray cotton fibers is produced by a card 10, and is then passed onto a liquid pervious support member or forning belt, such as an endless woven belt 14.
  • the belt 14 carries the web 12 of fibers under a series of manifolds 16 that are arranged in rows disposed transversely across the path of travel of the belt 14 (i.e., they are disposed in the cross direction).
  • manifolds 16 On the manifolds 16 are mounted spray heads or orifice strips for ejecting liquid 18 under moderate pressure down onto the carded web 12 of cotton fibers supported on the belt 14.
  • the liquid is provided from a source (not shown) of pressurized water, through a main water duct 19, to a common supply manifold 21, and through flexible hoses 23 into each manifold 16.
  • the manifolds 16 are constructed and adapted so that they can be oscillated transversely to the path of travel of the web 12 (see the arrows "a" in Fig. 10, which show the direction of oscillation), with the frequency of oscillation being, for instance, from about 1 to about 5 oscillations per second.
  • the cotton fibers in the web 12 are rearranged by the liquid jets or spray 18 as the liquid impinges upon and passes through the fibrous web 12 and then through the belt 14.
  • the rearranged fibrous web 24 can be de-watered, as by passing it through a pair of squeeze rolls 28, and it is then carried to a conventional windup 26, still in the wet state, for subsequent bleaching.
  • the rearranged fibrous web 24- is preferably kept wet until it has been bleached, in order to impart sufficient strength to the web 24 so that it can be handled.
  • the rearranged fibrous web is then bleached by conventional cotton bleaching procedures, and is then rinsed and dried, to produce the cotton patterned nonwoven fabric of the invention.
  • gray cotton staple fibers While other fibers can be blended with the cotton, the gray cotton must comprise at least a major proportion of the web to be employed in the process of the invention.
  • gray cotton refers to cotton that has not been bleached or scoured.
  • the cotton feed web can be formed by carding, air-laying, or other convenional web-forming procedure.
  • Typical feed web weights are from about 25 to about 200 grams per square meter.
  • a reinforcing web such as a scrim or a reticulated plastic netting can be used.
  • the carded cotton fiber feed web is laid down on top of the reinforcing web prior to the liquid rearranging.
  • the liquid pervious support member or forming belt that is employed to carry the array of cotton fibers under the water spray can be a conventional plain weave belt woven of polyester monofilament, bronze, or other conventional materials.
  • the belts will usually have from 35 to 75 per cent open area.
  • Such belts are conventionally made from monofilaments having a filament count of from about 11 to about 236 filaments per 10 centimeters (about 3 to 60 filaments per inch) in both directions.
  • the water that is jetted or sprayed onto the fibers can be provided at relatively low pressure, for instance, from about 100 to about 600 psi (that is, from about 700 to about 4,000 kpa).
  • the water spray can be provided in the form of essentially columnar jets, if desired, but can also be employed in the form of sprays with a relatively wide angle of divergence, for instance, up to about 10 degrees.
  • the number of rows of jets (i.e., the number of jets in the machine direction or direction of travel of the forming belt) has not been found to be narrowly critical. Typically, there will be from about 10 to about 30 rows when spray jets are used, and from about 8 to about 20 rows when columnar jets are used.
  • the usual speed of the forming belt is from about 5 to about 20 meters per minute.
  • a major point of novelty of this invention is the provision of means to impart transverse oscillation to the jets.
  • Such oscillation can be effected by mounting the manifolds 16 in such a way that they are transversely moveable (as by using roller bearings or linear bearings), and employing a driven crank-shaft, rotating cams, eccentrically mounted rotating circular disks, or other conventional oscillation-imparting means (not shown), to engage the manifolds and oscillate them.
  • the manifolds can be oscillated either together (in phase with each other) or independently (out of phase with each other).
  • the manifolds 16 are ganged, and are suspended from a stationary mounting plate 30. Upstanding projections or lugs 32 attached to the ganged manifolds 16 extend through slots 34 in the stationary mounting plate 30. Roller bearings 36 mounted on the lugs 32 ride on the mounting plate 30 as the ganged manifolds 16 oscillate.
  • the oscillation used is a relatively low frequency oscillation, e.g., from about 75 to about 200 cycles per minute.
  • the amplitude of the oscillation is not narrowly critical, and it can vary, for instance, from about 5 millimeters to about 50 millimeters.
  • the rearranged web is subjected to a conventional cotton bleaching process (which is illustrated below in the examples), and is then dried as by passing it over a set of steam cans.
  • a carded web of gray cotton having a weight of 50 grams per square meter was laid down onto a single layer of woven cotton gauze.
  • the gauze was a plain weave scrim having a warp thread count of 17 per inch and a weft thread count of 13 per inch, and weighed 15 grams per square meter.
  • the double layer web was then passed onto a woven belt having the following description:
  • the belt carrying the web of carded cotton plus scrim was passed under a series of manifolds at a speed of 10 meters per minute.
  • the manifolds contained spray nozzles that were 55 millimeters apart (center-to-center) in the cross direction, and there were 8 rows of nozzles in the machine direction.
  • the spray nozzles used were designed to deliver solid streams of water through orifices having diameters of about 8 mils.
  • the belt was 15 millimeters under the tips of the nozzles. Water was sprayed through the nozzles at a pressure of 3500 kpa. As the web was carried under the nozzles, the manifolds in which the nozzles were mounted were vibrated at a frequency of 120 cycles per minute and an amplitude of 37 millimeters. Vacuum slots under the belt below each row of nozzles pulled a vacuum of about 5 inches'of mercury. The fabric was passed through the apparatus 10 times. The web was de-watered by passing it through a pair of squeeze rolls, was collected on a windup while still wet, and was then bleached under the following conditions:
  • FIGs. 2 - 5 Photomacrographs of this fabric are shown in Figs. 2 - 5.
  • Figs. 2 and 3 were made with incident light and Figs. 4 and 5 were made with transmitted light.
  • Figs. 2 and 4 show the top side of the fabric and Figs. 3 and 5"show the bottom or belt side (i.e., the side that was next to the belt during the rearranging).
  • a cotton patterned fabric was made from a web of carded gray cotton having a basis weight of 50 grams per square meter.
  • the forming belt was the same as that described in Example 1.
  • the processing conditions were as follows:
  • the wet, rearranged fabric was bleached and dried by a procedure analogous to that of Example 1.
  • Photomacrographs of the fabric are shown in Figs. 6-9. As with Example 1, the photomacrographs were taken both with incident light and with transmitted light, and both the top and belt sides are shown.
  • the fabrics described in this application are useful as bandages, sponges, swabs, primary dressings, secondary dressings, prepping swabs, and other absorbent products.
  • a gauze reinforced fabric was made from a web of gray cotton having a weight of 50 grams per square meter and the scrim described in Example 1. Instead of using spray nozzles, the water was jetted through the holes in an orifice strip, the holes being designed to produce essentially columnar jets. The holes had diameters of 0.007 inch, and there were four holes per inch. There were 12 rows of nozzles. Only one pass through the apparatus was used. The processing conditions were the following:
  • the webs were dewatered, bleached, and dried as described in Example 1.
  • Typical tensile properties of both the gauze-reinforced and the non-reinforced fabrics are the following:
  • the tensile tests were carried out on an Instron tensile tester. Sample size was 25 x 130 mm. The initial distance between the jaws was 100 mm. The crosshead speed was set at 200 mm/minute.
