Abstract

A web of fabric (1) with a carrier (2) has an externally-even plastic layer (5, 6) at least on one side, traversed by transfer channels. According to the invention, the external side (7, 8) of the plastic layer (5, 6) also has impressions (9) between the openings of the transfer channels which are at least partly connected with one another and with the transfer channels. During the production of the fabric web, soluble particles are applied to the external side (7, 8) of the plastic layer (5, 6) during or after the production of the plastic layer (5, 6) and then pressed into the plastic layer (5, 6). These soluble particles may then be extracted by a solvent to which the fabric web (1) is resistant.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Materialbahn mit einem Träger, der auf wenigstens einer Seite eine außenseitig ebene Kunststoffschicht aufweist, durch die Durchgangskanäle hindurchgehen. Die Materialbahn eignet sich vor allem für die Herstellung von Papiermaschinenbändern für den Formier-, Pressen- und Trockenbereich, von Filtermitteln und hier insbesondere von Bandfiltermitteln.The invention relates to a material web with a carrier, the on at least one side a plastic layer that is flat on the outside has to pass through the through channels. The Material web is particularly suitable for the production of paper machine tapes for forming, pressing and drying areas, of filter media and here in particular of belt filter media.

Eine Materialbahn der oben genannten Art für den Einsatz in einer Papiermaschine ist in der EP-B-0 196 045 beschrieben. Sie hat als Träger ein flüssigkeitsdurchlässiges Gewebe, auf dem eine 1,3 bis 5 mm dicke Schicht aus einem elastomeren Polymerharz aufgebracht ist. Die Kunststoffschicht weist Durchgangskanäle auf, die von der ansonsten glatten und ebenen Außenseite bis zum Träger hindurchgehen und in der Papiermaschine als Entwässerungskanäle dienen.A material web of the type mentioned above for use in a paper machine is described in EP-B-0 196 045. she has as a carrier a liquid-permeable fabric on which a 1.3 to 5 mm thick layer of an elastomeric polymer resin is applied. The plastic layer has through channels on that of the otherwise smooth and flat outside go through to the support and in the paper machine as drainage channels serve.

Die Herstellung der Durchgangskanäle geschieht in der Weise, daß Textilfasern homogen in dem Polymerharz dispergiert werden, bevor die Mischung aus Textilfasern und Polymerharz auf dem Träger aufgebracht wird. Alternativ dazu kann zunächst ein Faservlies auf den Träger aufgebracht und dann die Beschichtung mit dem Polymerharz vorgenommen werden. In beiden Fällen bestehen die Textilfasern aus einem organischen Material, das durch Anwendung eines Lösungsmittels auflösbar ist, wobei die Kunststoffschicht gegenüber diesem Lösungsmittel beständig ist. Das Herauslösen der Textilfasern geschieht nach dem Auftragen des Polymerharzes durch Auftragen des Lösungsmittels, so daß Kanäle entstehen, die der Formgebung und dem Verlauf der herausgelösten Textilfasern entsprechen.The through channels are manufactured in such a way that textile fibers are homogeneously dispersed in the polymer resin, before the mixture of textile fibers and polymer resin on the carrier is applied. Alternatively, a nonwoven can be used first applied to the carrier and then the coating with be made of the polymer resin. In both cases exist the textile fibers made of an organic material that by application a solvent is dissolvable, the plastic layer is resistant to this solvent. The The textile fibers are removed after application of the Polymer resin by applying the solvent so that channels arise that the shape and the course of the detached Correspond to textile fibers.

In einer weniger bevorzugten Ausführungsform werden statt der Textilfasern partikelartige Teilchen vorgeschlagen, die homogen in dem Polymerharz verteilt werden. Als Material für diese Teilchen werden anorganische Salze oder deren Hydrate oder Oxide vorgeschlagen. Durch entsprechende Lösungsmittel können sie in der gleichen Weise wie die Textilfasern aus dem Polymerharz herausgelöst werden und hinterlassen dabei Porenhohlräume.In a less preferred embodiment, instead of Textile fibers proposed particle-like particles that are homogeneous be distributed in the polymer resin. As a material for these particles become inorganic salts or their hydrates or oxides suggested. Using appropriate solvents, you can in the same way as the textile fibers made of the polymer resin are removed and leave pore cavities.

Die Herstellung des vorbeschriebenen Papiermaschinenbands bereitet deswegen Schwierigkeiten, weil Polymerharze dazu neigen, nach dem Aushärten eine geschlossene Oberfläche zu bilden, die das Herauslösen der in dem Polymerharz enthaltenen, löslichen Textilfasern bzw. Teilchen behindert. Zur Lösung dieses Problems ist in der EP-B-0 273 613 vorgeschlagen, die Oberfläche der Kunststoffschicht derart zu schleifen, daß eine Verbindung zu den löslichen Fasern hergestellt und zudem eine glatte Oberfläche erzeugt wird. Ein solcher Schleifvorgang ist jedoch sehr zeitaufwendig. Außerdem muß zuvor in einem entsprechenden Übermaß Kunststoffmaterial aufgetragen werden, und beim Schleifvorgang fällt Staub an, der abgesaugt und entweder entsorgt oder wieder aufbereitet werden muß. Hinzu kommt, daß eine glatte Oberfläche entsteht, die eine Ablösung der Papierbahn von dem Papiermaschinenband behindert. Papierbahnen neigen nämlich dazu, sich an glatten Oberflächen festzusaugen.The preparation of the paper machine belt described above is being prepared difficulties because polymer resins tend to after curing to form a closed surface, the dissolving out the soluble ones contained in the polymer resin Textile fibers or particles hindered. To solve this problem is proposed in EP-B-0 273 613, the surface to grind the plastic layer so that a connection to the soluble fibers and also a smooth surface is produced. However, such a grinding process is very time consuming. In addition, it must be in an appropriate excess Plastic material can be applied and during the grinding process dust accumulates, which is vacuumed and either disposed of or must be reprocessed. Add to that a smooth Surface arises that detaches the paper web from that Paper machine belt hindered. Paper webs tend to tend to stick to smooth surfaces.

Abgesehen von diesen Nachteilen werden Papiermaschinenbändern dieser Gattung eine Reihe von Vorteile gegenüber bekannten Filzen nach dem batt-on-base-Prinzip zugeschrieben, nämlich vergrößerter Widerstand gegen bleibende Verformung und damit längere Betriebszeiten und daraus folgend geringere Rüstkosten, verbesserte Abriebfestigkeit und höhere Strukturfestigkeit, geringere Affinität für kontaminierende Substanzen sowie gleichmäßigere Druckverteilung und damit verbesserte Entwässerung. Apart from these disadvantages, paper machine belts are used This type has a number of advantages over known felts attributed according to the batt-on-base principle, namely enlarged Resistance to permanent deformation and therefore longer Operating times and consequently lower set-up costs, improved abrasion resistance and higher structural strength, lower Affinity for contaminating substances as well as more uniform Pressure distribution and thus improved drainage.

In der WO86/05219 ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung eines Papiermaschinenbandes offenbart, bei dem ein Polymermaterial in flüssiger Form auf ein Stachelband aufgetragen wird. Nach Erhärten des Polymermaterials wird das so erhaltene Polymerband abgezogen, wobei die Stacheln des Stachelbandes konische Durchgangslöcher zurücklassen. Das Polymermaterial kann auch mit einer Verstärkungsstruktur in Form von Fasern, Fäden oder Geweben versehen sein. Nachteilig ist jedoch, daß die Oberfläche der so gewonnenen Polymerbahn glatt ist und deshalb die Neigung hat, an der Papierbahn haften zu bleiben. WO86 / 05219 describes a method for producing a Paper machine belt disclosed in which a polymer material applied in liquid form to a barbed tape becomes. After the polymer material has hardened, the resultant is obtained Stripped polymer tape, the spines of the Leave the barbed tape tapered through holes. The Polymer material can also have a reinforcing structure be provided in the form of fibers, threads or fabrics. The disadvantage, however, is that the surface of the so obtained Polymer web is smooth and therefore has a tendency to stick to the paper web.

Der vorbeschriebenen Entwicklung voraus ging ein Vorschlag, in die Fasern eines Papiermaschinenfilzes Fasern oder Partikel einzulagern, die mit Hilfe eines Lösungsmittels herauslösbar sind, gegenüber dem die übrigen Fasern und der Träger des Papiermaschinenbands lösungsresistent, d. h. beständig ist (DE-C-34 19 708). Die Herstellung erfolgt in der Weise, daß ein Faservlies aus nicht löslichen Fasern und löslichen Komponenten gebildet und auf den Träger aufgenadelt und daß dann das Papiermaschinenband unter Druck und Hitze verdichtet wird. Dabei können die löslichen Komponenten miteinander verschmelzen. Durch das Auflösen der löslichen Komponenten entstehen Porenhohlräume, die dem Papiermaschinenband trotz der vorherigen Kompression und der hierdurch erzeugten hohen Dichte das für die Entwässerung benötigte Hohlraumvolumen geben.A development preceded the development described above the fibers of a paper machine felt store fibers or particles, which can be removed with the help of a solvent, compared to the other fibers and the carrier of the paper machine belt solution resistant, d. H. is stable (DE-C-34 19 708). The production takes place in such a way that a Nonwoven fiber made of insoluble fibers and soluble components formed and needled onto the carrier and that then the paper machine belt is compressed under pressure and heat. You can fuse the soluble components together. By the dissolving of the soluble components creates pore cavities, the paper machine belt despite the previous compression and the resulting high density that for drainage give the required void volume.

Nachteilig bei dieser Lösung ist, daß trotz der Kompression die Haltbarkeit wesentlich geringer ist als mit kunststoffbeschichteten Trägern. Außerdem ist man für die Herstellung nach wie vor auf die hierfür üblichen Maschinen, insbesondere Webstühle und Nadelmaschinen, angewiesen.The disadvantage of this solution is that despite the compression Durability is much lower than with plastic-coated Carriers. Furthermore, one is like for the manufacture before the usual machines, especially looms and needle machines.

Es hat nicht an Versuchen gefehlt, Papiermaschinenbänder mit einem Träger und einer Durchgangskanäle aufweisenden Kunststoffschicht auf andere Weise herzustellen. So wird in der EP-B-0 037 387 eine Materialbahn vorgeschlagen, bei dem die Durchgangskanäle durch Perforierung einer zuvor aufgebrachten Kunststoffolie mittels einer Lasereinrichtung erzeugt werden. Abgesehen davon, daß die Durchgangskanäle keine Verbindung untereinander haben, ein Gas- oder Wasserdurchtritt also quer zur Ebene der Materialbahn nicht erfolgen kann, ist auch die Herstellung dieser Bahn außerordentlich aufwendig, insbesondere dann, wenn größere Flächen mittels der Lasereinrichtung bearbeitet werden müssen, wie dies bei Papiermaschinenbändern der Fall ist. Außerdem sind Folien in der erforderlichen Breite und mit ausreichender Gleichmäßigkeit nicht herstellbar. There has been no shortage of attempts to use paper machine belts a carrier and a plastic layer having through-channels to manufacture in a different way. So in the EP-B-0 037 387 proposed a material web in which the Through channels by perforating a previously applied one Plastic film are generated by means of a laser device. Apart from the fact that the through channels are not interconnected have a gas or water passage across The level of the material web cannot take place, so is the manufacture this track extremely expensive, in particular when larger areas are processed using the laser device must be, as is the case with paper machine belts is. In addition, foils are in the required width and with sufficient uniformity cannot be produced.

In der WO 91/14558 wird vorgeschlagen, die Durchgangskanäle dadurch zu erzeugen, daß auf die noch nicht gehärtete Kunststoffschicht eine Lochmaske aufgelegt wird und diese dann bestrahlt wird. Aufgrund dieser Bestrahlung härtet das Kunststoffmaterial im Bereich der Löcher der Maske aus. Nach Wegnahme der Lochmaske wird dann das noch nicht ausgehärtete Kunststoffmaterial mittels Preßluft entfernt. Auch dieses Verfahren ist aufwendig und hinterläßt relativ große freie Bereiche und kann deshalb nicht universell angewendet werden. Außerdem fällt auch hier zu entsorgender oder aufzubereitender Abfall an.In WO 91/14558 it is proposed to use the through channels to produce that on the not yet hardened plastic layer a shadow mask is put on and then irradiated becomes. Due to this radiation, the plastic material hardens in the area of the holes of the mask. After removing the shadow mask then the not yet hardened plastic material removed by compressed air. This process is also complex and leaves relatively large free areas and can therefore not be used universally. Also falls here disposal or processing waste.

Einen konzeptionell anderen Weg ist man bei dem Vorschlag gemäß der EP-B-0 187 967 gegangen. Hier wird bei einem Papiermaschinenband eine poröse Kunststoffschicht auf einem Träger dadurch erzeugt, daß lose Partikel eines synthetischen Polymerharzes in der Größenordnung von 0,15 bis 5 mm auf der Oberfläche eines Trägergewebes verteilt und dann einer Wärmebehandlung unterzogen werden, bei dem die Polymerharzpartikel über den Erweichungspunkt hinaus erhitzt werden, so daß sie an ihren Berührungsstellen untereinander und mit dem Trägergewebe verschmelzen. Stattdessen oder in Kombination damit kann auch die Aufbringung eines harzförmigen Bindemittels vorgesehen sein. Alternativ zu den Partikeln können auch lose Fasern auf dem Trägergewebe verteilt werden. Nach dem Anhaften der Partikel bzw. Fasern untereinander und an dem Trägergewebe verbleiben Freiräume, die die Kunststoffschicht flüssigkeitsdurchlässig machen.A conceptually different path is in accordance with the proposal EP-B-0 187 967. Here is a paper machine belt a porous plastic layer on a carrier produces loose particles of a synthetic polymer resin in of the order of 0.15 to 5 mm on the surface of a Carrier fabric distributed and then subjected to heat treatment be in which the polymer resin particles above the softening point be heated so that they are at their contact points fuse with each other and with the base fabric. Instead, or in combination with it, the application can also a resinous binder may be provided. Alternatively loose fibers on the carrier fabric can also be added to the particles be distributed. After the particles or fibers have adhered free spaces remain among one another and on the carrier fabric, that make the plastic layer permeable to liquids.

Ähnliches wird in der EP-A-0 653 512 vorgeschlagen, nur daß hierbei die Materialbahn zunächst ausschließlich aus Polymerpartikeln hergestellt wird, die durch Hitzeeinwirkung an ihren Kontaktstellen miteinander verbunden werden. Soweit erforderlich, kann eine Verstärkungsstruktur nach Art einer Armierung vollständig in das so gebildete Band eingelagert werden. Hierbei kann es sich um ein reines Faserprodukt oder um ein Gewebe handeln. Die Partikel können auch unterschiedlichen Durchmesser haben, um eine von der einen zur anderen Seite hin zunehmende Durchlässigkeit zu erzeugen.Similar things are proposed in EP-A-0 653 512, only that The material web initially consists exclusively of polymer particles is produced by exposure to heat at their contact points be connected to each other. If necessary can complete a reinforcement structure like a reinforcement be stored in the band thus formed. Here it can be a pure fiber product or a fabric. The particles can also have different diameters have one increasing from one side to the other To create permeability.

Der Nachteil der nach diesem Prinzip hergestellten Materialbahnen liegt darin, daß es sehr schwierig ist, sie reproduzierbar herzustellen, insbesondere was die Durchlässigkeit angeht. Außerdem ist ihre Oberfläche sehr uneben, weshalb die gleichzeitige Anwendung von Druck und Hitze - soweit die Partikel aus Fasern ausgebildet sind (EP-B-0 187 967) - oder ein Schleifvorgang (EP-A-0 653 512) zwecks Einebnung der Oberfläche vorgeschlagen werden.The disadvantage of the material webs produced according to this principle is that it is very difficult to reproduce them to manufacture, especially in terms of permeability. In addition, their surface is very uneven, which is why the simultaneous Application of pressure and heat - as far as the particles are made Fibers are formed (EP-B-0 187 967) - or a grinding process (EP-A-0 653 512) for the purpose of leveling the surface become.

Nach der WO 95/21285 wird eine Polymerbeschichtung mit Hilfe einer Abziehfolie unter gleichzeitiger Einwirkung von Hitze und Druck auf einen Träger aufgebracht, wobei sich der Polymerfilm aufgrund der Hitzeeinwirkung auf der Abziehfolie zu zusammenhängenden Tropfen unter Bildung von Freiräumen ausformt mit der Folge, daß die auf den Träger aufgebrachte Kunststoffschicht porös ist. Auch bei diesem Verfahren ist es schwierig, die Durchlässigkeit der Kunststoffschicht reproduzierbar einzustellen und den jeweiligen Erfordernissen anzupassen. Außerdem stehen Folien in der hier erforderlichen Breite nicht zur Verfügung und wären auch nicht mit ausreichender Gleichmäßigkeit herstellbar.According to WO 95/21285, a polymer coating is made using a peel film under the simultaneous exposure to heat and Pressure applied to a support, the polymer film due to the heat on the peel-off film Drops forming free spaces with the Consequence that the plastic layer applied to the carrier is porous. It is also difficult with this method Permeability of the plastic layer can be set reproducibly and adapt to the respective requirements. Also stand Foils in the width required here are not available and would also not be able to be produced with sufficient uniformity.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Materialbahn der eingangs genannten Art so zu gestalten, daß sie einfach und zeitsparend herstellbar ist und zudem eine günstige Oberflächenbeschaffenheit hat. Eine weitere Aufgabe besteht darin, ein einfaches und flexibles Verfahren zur Herstellung einer solchen Materialbahn bereitzustellen.The invention has for its object a web of material type mentioned so that they are simple and is time-saving to manufacture and also has a favorable surface finish Has. Another task is a simple one and flexible method for producing such a material web to provide.

Die erstgenannte Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht deren Rauhigkeit erhöhende Einprägungen auch zwischen den öffnungen der Durchgangskanäle aufweist. Die durch die Einprägung bewirkte Erhöhung der Rauhigkeit ist insbesondere bei Verwendung der Materialbahn als Papiermaschinenband von Vorteil, weil damit der Neigung der Papierbahn, an dem Papiermaschinenband zu sehr haften zu bleiben, entgegengewirkt wird und dennoch keine Markierungen hervorgerufen werden. Die Papierbahn löst sich wesentlich problemloser von dem Papiermaschinenband als bei den vorbekannten Ausführungen gleicher Gattung, wie sie aus der EP-B-0 196 045 und EP-B-0 273 613 bekannt sind. Die Einprägungen haben dabei durch ihre Verteilung im Verhältnis zu den öffnungen der Durchgangskanäle eine solch geringe Größe, daß genügend Kontaktfläche zur Papierbahn verbleibt, um eine gleichmäßige Abstützung und Druckübertragung zu ermöglichen. Außerdem sind die Durchgangskanäle zusammen mit den Einprägungen dafür verantwortlich, daß die Rückbefeuchtung der Papierbahn nach Verlassen des Pressenspalts sehr gering ist.The first-mentioned object is achieved according to the invention by that the outside of the plastic layer increases its roughness Impressions also between the openings of the through-channels having. The increase caused by the imprint Roughness is particularly when using the material web as Paper machine belt is advantageous because the inclination of the paper web, sticking to the paper machine belt too much, is counteracted and yet no markings are caused become. The paper web comes off much more easily from the paper machine belt than in the previously known designs same type as that from EP-B-0 196 045 and EP-B-0 273 613 are known. The impressions have through their distribution in relation to the openings of the through channels such a small size that enough contact area to Paper web remains to provide even support and pressure transfer to enable. In addition, the through channels together with the imprints responsible for the fact that the Remoistening of the paper web after leaving the press nip is very low.

Die Vorzüge der erfindungsgemäß aufgerauhten Oberfläche der Kunststoffschicht ist jedoch auf den Einsatz in Papiermaschinen nicht beschränkt. Auch bei Filtermitteln kann eine zu glatte Oberfläche zu einer so starken Anhaftung des abgeschiedenen Materials führen, daß dessen Abreinigung erschwert wird.The advantages of the roughened surface of the invention Plastic layer, however, is for use in paper machines not limited. Filter media can also be too smooth Surface to such a strong adhesion of the deposited material cause its cleaning is difficult.

Für die in Frage kommenden Haupteinsatzgebiete empfehlen sich Einprägungen mit einem mittleren Durchmesser von 5 bis 100 µm.Recommended for the main areas of application in question Imprints with an average diameter of 5 to 100 µm.

Der Träger der erfindungsgemäßen Materialbahn hat die Aufgabe, der Materialbahn Form- und Strukturfestigkeit zu geben und ggf. Längs- und Querkräfte aufzunehmen. Außerdem sollte er flüssigkeitsdurchlässig sein. Hierzu eignen sich insbesondere aus Fäden gebildete Textilträger, wie beispielsweise Fadengelege, Gestricke, Gewirke, Gewebe oder Kombinationen solcher Textilträger. Je nach Einsatzgebiet und Ansprüchen an die Festigkeit kann der Träger ein- oder mehrlagig aufgebaut sein. Im Fall eines Trägergewebes kommen alle Gewebearten in Frage, insbesondere solche, die aus dem Bereich der Papiermaschinenbänder bekannt sind. Für die Fäden sind sowohl Monofilamente als auch Multifilamente aus vorzugsweise thermoplastischen Kunststoffmaterialien einsetzbar. Der Träger kann alternativ oder in Kombination dazu ein Spinnfaservlies und/oder eine gestanzte oder extrudierte Netzstruktur aufweisen. Er kann darüberhinaus mit einem Faservlies versehen sein, so daß er Filzcharakter hat.The carrier of the material web according to the invention has the task to give the material web shape and structural strength and if necessary Absorb longitudinal and transverse forces. It should also be permeable to liquids his. Threads are particularly suitable for this formed textile supports, such as laid scrims, knitted fabrics, Knitted fabrics, fabrics or combinations of such textile supports. Depending on the area of application and strength requirements the carrier can be constructed in one or more layers. In the case All types of fabric come into question for a carrier fabric, in particular those known from the field of paper machine tapes are. For the threads are both monofilaments as well Multifilaments made of preferably thermoplastic plastic materials applicable. The carrier can alternatively or in combination a spunbonded nonwoven and / or a punched or extruded one Have network structure. He can also with a Be nonwoven so that it has a felt character.

Als Materialien für den Träger eignen sich Kunststoffe, wie sie insbesondere aus dem Bereich der Papiermaschinenbänder bekannt und in den oben erwähnten Dokumenten genannt sind. Die Auswahl des Kunststoffs kann an den jeweiligen Einsatzzweck und die dort vorherrschenden Bedingungen angepaßt werden. Insbesondere sollten solche Kunststoffe ausgewählt werden, die bei der Erzeugung der Kunststoffschicht und der damit verbundenen Hitzeeinwirkungen keine Beeinträchtigungen erleiden.Plastics such as these are suitable as materials for the carrier especially known from the field of paper machine tapes and are mentioned in the documents mentioned above. The selection The plastic can be used for the respective purpose and prevailing conditions there are adapted. In particular such plastics should be selected that are used in the production the plastic layer and the associated heat effects do not suffer any impairments.

Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Durchgangskanäle sich aus einer Mehrzahl von in Verbindung stehenden Porenhohlräumen zusammensetzen. Solche Porenhohlräume lassen sich mit dem aus der EP-B-0 196 045 bekannten Verfahren mit Hilfe von löslichen Partikeln erzeugen. Die Porenhohlräume können dabei so verteilt werden, daß für den jeweiligen Einsatzzweck möglichst günstige Eigenschaften erzielt werden. Für die Anwendung im Papiermaschinenbereich empfiehlt sich, daß das Hohlraumvolumen zum Träger hin schichtweise oder kontinuierlich zunimmt, beispielsweise durch Erhöhung der Anzahl der Porenhohlräume und/oder der Einzelvolumina der Porenhohlräume. Unabhängig davon sollen parallel zur Ebene der Kunststoffschicht nebeneinanderliegende Porenhohlräume Verbindung zueinander haben, damit insbesondere im Fall des Einsatzes in der Naßpresse einer Papiermaschine auch offene Poren und damit Entwässerungsvolumen in der Ebene der Kunststoffschicht zur Verfügung gestellt wird und nicht nur in Richtung quer zu dieser Ebene. Der mittlere Durchmesser der Porenhohlräume sollte im Bereich zwischen 30 bis 500 µm liegen.According to a further feature of the invention it is provided that the through channels are made up of a plurality of interconnected assemble standing pore cavities. Such pore cavities can be with the method known from EP-B-0 196 045 with the help of soluble particles. The pore cavities can be distributed so that for the respective application best possible properties can be achieved. For the Application in the paper machine sector recommends that Cavity volume towards the carrier in layers or continuously increases, for example by increasing the number of pore cavities and / or the individual volumes of the pore cavities. Independently of which should lie side by side parallel to the plane of the plastic layer Pore cavities have connection to each other so especially in the case of use in a wet press Paper machine also open pores and thus drainage volume is provided in the plane of the plastic layer and not just in the direction across this plane. The middle one The diameter of the pore cavities should be in the range between 30 up to 500 µm.

Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die Kunststoffschicht lösliche Komponenten enthält, die mittels eines Lösungsmittels herauslösbar sind, gegenüber dem die Haterialbahn im übrigen beständig ist, und die so verteilt sind, daß sich nach dem Herauslösen zusätzliche Durchgangskanäle ergeben. Eine solche Materialbahn eröffnet die Möglichkeit, die Durchlässigkeit nach ihrer Installation nachträglich, d. h. im Betrieb zu beeinflussen, beispielsweise um die Durchlässigkeit wieder auf den ursprünglichen Zustand zu erhöhen, wenn die vorhandenen Durchgangskanäle sich im Lauf der Betriebszeit infolge Verschmutzung verengt haben oder verstopft worden sind. Dieser Gedanke ist grundsätzlich schon der EP-A-0 303 798 und der EP-A-0 320 559 zu entnehmen, in denen der Einsatz löslicher Fasern innerhalb eines Filzes vorgeschlagen worden ist. Es versteht sich, daß diese löslichen Komponenten gegenüber den Einsatzbedingungen, für die die Materialbahn bestimmt ist, beständig sein muß, d. h. im Fall des Einsatzes als Papiermaschinenband gegenüber den aus der Papierbahn kommenden Flüssigkeiten oder Dämpfen, oder daß die Auflösung stark verzögert abläuft. Durch Anwendung eines besonderen Lösungsmittels können dann zusätzliche Durchgangskanäle erzeugt werden, die an die Stelle der verstopften Durchgangskanäle treten oder die verengten Durchgangskanäle ergänzen. Hinsichtlich der hierfür in Frage kommenden Materialien wird auf die beiden vorgenannten Dokumente verwiesen. An die Stelle von Fasern als lösliche Komponenten kommen auch partikelartige lösliche Teilchen in Frage, die so verteilt sein sollten, daß sich nach ihrer Auflösung in Verbindung stehende Porenhohlräume ergeben, welche sich zu Durchgangskanälen ergänzen.According to a further feature of the invention it is provided that the plastic layer contains soluble components which by means of a solvent can be removed, against which the material web is otherwise stable, and which are so distributed that additional through-channels result after removal. Such a web of material opens up the possibility of Permeability after installation, d. H. in the Influence operation, for example, permeability back to the original state if the existing one Through channels change as a result of the operating time Have narrowed or become clogged. This The basic idea is already EP-A-0 303 798 and EP-A-0 320 559, in which the use of soluble fibers has been proposed within a felt. It understands that these soluble components are different from the operating conditions, for which the material web is intended must be d. H. in the case of use as a paper machine belt compared to the liquids coming out of the paper web or steaming, or that the dissolution is very delayed. By using a special solvent additional Through channels are generated that take the place of the blocked through channels or the narrowed Complement through-channels. With regard to this in question upcoming materials will appear on the two aforementioned documents referred. Instead of fibers as soluble components particle-like soluble particles are also possible, which are so should be distributed that after their dissolution standing pore cavities result, which become through-channels complete.

Für die Kunststoffschicht eignen sich Polyamide, wie Polyamid 4.6, 6, 6.6, 6.10, 6.12, 11 und 12, Polyester, Polyphenylensulfit, Polyetheretherketon, Polyurethan, Polysulfone, thermoplastische, aromatische Polyamide, Polyphthalamide sowie Polypropylen. Es kommen jedoch auch andere Polymere und elastomere Kunststoffe in Frage, wie sie sich beispielsweise der EP-B-0 196 045 und EP-B-0 273 613 entnehmen lassen. Es können auch Mischungen von verschiedenen Kunststoffen verwendet werden, beispielsweise mit unterschiedlichem elastischen Vermögen, wobei die Kunststoffschicht auch aus Schichten bestehen kann, die aus Kunststoffen mit unterschiedlichem elastischen Vermögen bestehen. Auch insoweit kann die Auswahl der Kunststoffe und deren elastischen Eigenschaften an den jeweiligen Einsatzzweck angepaßt werden.Polyamides, such as polyamide, are suitable for the plastic layer 4.6, 6, 6.6, 6.10, 6.12, 11 and 12, polyester, polyphenylene sulfite, Polyetheretherketone, polyurethane, polysulfones, thermoplastic, aromatic polyamides, polyphthalamides and polypropylene. However, other polymers and elastomeric plastics also come in question, such as that of EP-B-0 196 045 and EP-B-0 273 613. Mixtures can also be used of various plastics can be used, for example with different elastic properties, the plastic layer can also consist of layers made of plastics with different elastic assets. The selection of plastics and their elasticity can also be taken into account Properties to be adapted to the respective application.

Nach der Erfindung ist ferner vorgesehen, daß der Träger nicht nur auf einer Seite eine Kunststoffschicht aufweist, sondern beidseitig mit je einer Kunststoffschicht versehen ist. Eine solche Ausbildung bietet sich insbesondere dann an, wenn die Rückseite der Materialbahn starken mechanischen Belastungen ausgesetzt ist, vor denen der Träger geschützt werden soll. Dies kann beispielsweise im Formier- und Pressenbereich einer Papiermaschine der Fall sein, da dort die Papiermaschinenbänder über feststehende Einrichtungen wie Saugkästen, Leisten oder dergleichen geführt werden. Dabei sollte auch die zweite Kunststoffschicht Durchgangskanäle aufweisen, wobei die Ausbildung, Anordnung und Herstellung der Durchgangskanäle in analoger Weise wie bei der ersten Kunststoffschicht getroffen werden kann, die zweite Kunststoffschicht also alle vorbeschriebenen Merkmale der ersten Kunststoffschicht aufweisen kann. Um eine zur Außenseite der zweiten Kunststoffschicht ebenfalls zunehmende Durchlässigkeit zu erhalten, sollte die Anzahl der Porenhohlräume und/oder sollten die Einzelvolumina der Porenhohlräume vom Träger weggerichtet zunehmen. Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, daß die Anzahl und/oder die Volumina der Porenhohlräume in den Kunststoffschichten jeweils in den dem Träger benachbarten Bereichen wenigstens gleich ist, vorzugsweise in der zweiten Kunststoffschicht größer als in der ersten Kunststoffschicht. Für besondere Fälle kann es jedoch zweckmäßiger sein, daß die Anzahl der Porenhohlräume und/oder die Einzelvolumina der Porenhohlräume in der zweiten Kunststoffschicht vom Träger weggerichtet abnehmen, beispielsweise um ein Wiederbenetzen der Papierbahn bei der Trennung von Papierbahn und Papiermaschinenband zu vermeiden. According to the invention it is further provided that the carrier is not only has a plastic layer on one side, but is provided on both sides with a plastic layer. A Such training is particularly useful if the Back of the material web exposed to strong mechanical loads against which the carrier is to be protected. This can, for example, in the forming and press area of a paper machine be the case because the paper machine belts over there fixed devices such as suction boxes, strips or the like be performed. The second plastic layer should also be used Have through channels, the training, arrangement and production of the through channels in an analogous manner as can be taken at the first plastic layer that second plastic layer so all the features described above may have the first plastic layer. To one outside the second plastic layer also increasing permeability should get the number of pore voids and / or should the individual volumes of the pore cavities from the carrier increase away. It is appropriate that the number and / or the volumes of the pore cavities in the plastic layers at least in the areas adjacent to the carrier is the same, preferably in the second plastic layer larger than in the first plastic layer. For special ones However, it may be more convenient that the number of Pore cavities and / or the individual volumes of the pore cavities remove in the second plastic layer facing away from the carrier, for example, to rewet the paper web to avoid the separation of paper web and paper machine belt.

Es versteht sich, daß die Außenseite der zweiten Kunststoffschicht gleichfalls in erfindungsgemäßer Weise mit Einprägungen auch zwischen den Öffnungen der Durchgangskanäle versehen sein kann.It is understood that the outside of the second plastic layer likewise in the manner according to the invention with impressions also be provided between the openings of the through channels can.

Für das Einformen der Einprägungen in der Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht(en) kommen verschiedene Verfahren in Frage. So ist es denkbar, die Einprägungen mit entsprechend profilierten Walzen vorzunehmen. Nach der Erfindung wird aber einem anderen Verfahren der Vorzug gegeben, das dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß bei oder nach der Erzeugung der Kunststoffschicht lösliche Partikel auf die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht vorzugsweise in möglichst gleichmäßiger Verteilung aufgebracht und dann in die Kunststoffschicht eingedrückt werden, wobei die löslichen Partikel durch ein solches Lösungsmittel herauslösbar sind, gegenüber dem die Materialbahn im übrigen beständig ist, und danach diese löslichen Partikel herausgelöst werden. Das Verfahren zeichnet sich durch hohe Flexibilität und einfache Handhabung aus. Durch Wahl der Korngröße der löslichen Partikel kann die Rauhigkeit der Außenfläche der Kunststoffschicht den jeweiligen Anforderungen angepaßt werden. Auch die Anzahl der Einprägungen pro Flächeneinheit läßt sich durch eine entsprechende Verteilung beim Aufstreuen der löslichen Partikel einstellen. Für das Eindrücken der löslichen Partikel können gewöhnliche Walzenpressen, wie beispielsweise Kalander, vorgesehen sein.For molding the embossments on the outside of the plastic layer (s) different methods are possible. So is it is conceivable, the impressions with appropriately profiled rollers to make. According to the invention, however, another method given preference, which is characterized in that Soluble particles during or after the production of the plastic layer on the outside of the plastic layer, preferably in applied as evenly as possible distribution and then in the Plastic layer are pressed in, the soluble particles are removable by such a solvent which the material web is otherwise stable, and after these soluble particles are removed. The procedure is characterized by high flexibility and easy handling out. By choosing the grain size of the soluble particles, the Roughness of the outer surface of the plastic layer the respective Requirements are adjusted. Also the number of impressions per unit area can be divided accordingly adjust when sprinkling the soluble particles. For the Common roller presses, such as calenders.

Es empfiehlt sich, daß die löslichen Partikel bei einer Temperatur der Kunststoffschicht in diese eingedrückt werden, bei der die Kunststoffschicht gegenüber dem Zustand bei Raumtemperatur erweicht ist, damit die löslichen Partikel ohne große Druckbeaufschlagung problemlos in die Kunststoffschicht einsinken und die Einprägungen nach dem Herauslösen der Partikel ihre Formgebung im wesentlichen behalten. Dabei ist es zweckmäßig, daß die löslichen Partikel im Anschluß an die Erzeugung der Kunststoffschicht bei noch erhöhter Temperatur aufgebracht und eingedrückt werden, also die Erwärmung des Kunststoffmaterials beim Aufbringen zwecks Erzeugung der Kunststoffschicht auf den Träger genutzt wird und damit eine erneute Erwärmung entfallen kann.It is recommended that the soluble particles be at a temperature the plastic layer can be pressed into this the plastic layer compared to the condition at room temperature is softened so the soluble particles without great pressure sink easily into the plastic layer and the embossing after the particles have been removed their shape essentially keep. It is appropriate that the soluble particles following the creation of the plastic layer applied and pressed in at an even higher temperature are, i.e. the heating of the plastic material during Application for the purpose of producing the plastic layer on the carrier is used and thus there is no need for renewed heating can.

Die vorstehende Verfahrensweise für die Ausbildung der Einprägungen eignet sich insbesondere für solche Materialbahnen, die dadurch hergestellt werden, daß die Kunststoffschicht mit löslichen Komponenten versehen wird, welche unter Bildung von Durchgangskanälen durch ein solches Lösungsmittel herauslösbar sind, gegenüber dem die Materialbahn im übrigen beständig ist, und daß wenigstens ein Teil der in der Kunststoffschicht vorhandenen löslichen Komponenten und die außenseitig eingedrückten löslichen Partikeln - vorzugsweise in einem Arbeitsgang - herausgelöst werden. Durch das Eindrücken der löslichen Partikel in die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht wird nämlich dort, wo die löslichen Komponenten an der Außenseite oberflächennah vorhanden sind, eine Verbindung zu diesen hergestellt. Nach dem Herauslösen der löslichen Partikel hat das Lösungsmittel Zugang zu den in der Kunststoffschicht zunächst eingeschlossenen löslichen Komponenten und kann deshalb auch diese vollständig auflösen und entfernen. Die Einprägungen bilden danach insoweit die öffnungen der Durchgangskanäle. Das Verfahren ersetzt damit die Schleifbehandlung gemäß der EP-B-0 273 613, und zwar unabhängig davon, ob als lösliche Komponenten Fasern oder ebenfalls Partikel in der Kunststoffschicht eingelagert sind.The above procedure for the formation of the impressions is particularly suitable for such material webs can be produced in that the plastic layer with soluble Components are provided, which with the formation of Through channels can be removed by such a solvent against which the material web is otherwise resistant, and that at least a part of those present in the plastic layer soluble components and those pressed in on the outside soluble particles - preferably removed in one operation become. By pressing in the soluble particles namely in the outside of the plastic layer where the soluble components are available on the outside near the surface are connected to them. After this The solvent has access to the soluble particles to the soluble ones initially enclosed in the plastic layer Components and can therefore also completely dissolve them and remove. The impressions then form the openings of the through-channels. The procedure thus replaces the Grinding treatment according to EP-B-0 273 613, independently whether as soluble components fibers or particles are embedded in the plastic layer.

Für die Herstellung der Kunststoffschicht können die sich aus der EP-B-0 196 045 und der EP-B-0 273 613 ergebenden Verfahren angewendet werden. Als besonders zweckmäßig hat sich jedoch ein Verfahren erwiesen, bei dem zunächst ein Kunststoffpulver - z. B. durch Mahlen, Sieben etc. - gebildet wird und das Kunststoffpulver und als lösliche Komponenten partikelartige lösliche Teilchen auf den Träger aufgebracht werden und daß durch Wärme- und Druckbehandlung aus dem Kunststoffpulver eine außenseitig ebene Kunststoffschicht mit darin enthaltenen löslichen Teilchen erzeugt wird. Das Verfahren zeichnet sich durch einfache Handhabung und Flexibilität aus.They can be used for the production of the plastic layer EP-B-0 196 045 and EP-B-0 273 613 be applied. However, one has proven to be particularly useful Proven method, first using a plastic powder - e.g. B. by grinding, sieving, etc. - is formed and the plastic powder and as soluble components, particle-like soluble ones Particles are applied to the carrier and that by Heat and pressure treatment from the plastic powder on the outside flat plastic layer with soluble therein Particle is generated. The process is simple Handling and flexibility.

Die Korngröße der Teilchen des Kunststoffpulvers und auch die der löslichen Teilchen sowie deren Mischungsverhältnis kann in weiten Grenzen so eingestellt werden, daß sich eine gewünschte Struktur der Kunststoffschicht ergibt, insbesondere was die nach dem Herauslösen der löslichen Teilchen ergebenden Hohlräume der Durchgangskanäle betrifft. Vorzugsweise sollte jedoch die mittlere Korngröße des Kunststoffpulvers geringer sein, als die der löslichen Teilchen, beispielsweise nur die Hälfte bis ein Drittel der der löslichen Teilchen betragen und keinesfalls mehr als 100 µm sein. Auf diese Weise werden die löslichen Teilchen von einer Mehrzahl oder sogar Vielzahl von Teilchen des Kunststoffpulvers praktisch ummantelt, und es entsteht eine relativ dichte Packung.The grain size of the particles of the plastic powder and also the the soluble particles and their mixing ratio can be in wide limits can be set so that a desired Structure of the plastic layer results, especially what the cavities resulting from the dissolving of the soluble particles of the through channels. Preferably, however the average grain size of the plastic powder may be less than that of the soluble particles, for example only half to amount to one third of the soluble particles and not at all be more than 100 µm. In this way the soluble particles of a plurality or even a plurality of particles of the Plastic powder practically encased, and it creates a relative tight packing.

Die Vermischung des Kunststoffpulvers und der löslichen Teilchen kann vor dem Aufbringen auf den Träger, aber auch währenddessen erfolgen. Die anschließende Wärmebehandlung soll bei einer Temperatur erfolgen, bei der das Kunststoffpulver soweit plastifiziert wird, daß anschließend eine homogene, d. h. bis auf die löslichen Teilchen im wesentlichen porenlose Kunststoffschicht entsteht, die an dem Träger haftet. Die Druckausübung soll diesen Prozeß nicht nur begünstigen, sondern gleichzeitig auch für eine ebene Oberfläche sorgen, deren Rauhigkeit nachträglich durch die zusätzlich in die Außenfläche einzudrückenden löslichen Partikel bestimmt wird. Die Erwärmung kann dabei durch Infrarotbestrahlung oder in einem Heizofen etc. erfolgen, während die Druckausübung mit Hilfe von Walzen beispielsweise in einem Kalander durchgeführt werden kann.The mixing of the plastic powder and the soluble particles can be applied to the carrier, but also during it respectively. The subsequent heat treatment is said to a temperature at which the plastic powder so far is plasticized that a homogeneous, d. H. to on the soluble particles essentially non-porous plastic layer arises, which adheres to the carrier. The exertion of pressure should not only favor this process, but at the same time also ensure a flat surface, the roughness afterwards by the additional to be pressed into the outer surface soluble particles is determined. The warming can by infrared radiation or in a heating oven etc., while applying pressure with the help of rollers, for example can be carried out in a calender.

Das Kunststoffpulver und die löslichen Teilchen können auch schichtweise aufgetragen werden, wobei für die Schichten unterschiedliche Korngrößen, Materialien und Mischungsverhältnisse vorgesehen sein können, um den jeweiligen Anforderungen Rechnung zu tragen. So können die löslichen Teilchen zum Träger hin von Schicht zu Schicht größer werden. Alternativ oder in Kombination dazu kann auch die Anzahl der löslichen Teilchen zum Träger hin von Schicht zu Schicht zunehmen. Beide Maßnahmen dienen dazu, die Durchlässigkeit zum Träger hin größer werden zu lassen, wie dies insbesondere bei der Verwendung der Materialbahn im Formier- und Pressenbereich einer Papiermaschine erwünscht ist.The plastic powder and the soluble particles can also applied in layers, with different layers Grain sizes, materials and mixing ratios can be provided to account for the respective requirements to wear. So the soluble particles can go to the carrier grow from layer to layer. Alternatively or in combination the number of soluble particles can also Increase carrier from layer to layer. Both measures serve to increase the permeability to the wearer leave like this especially when using the web of material desirable in the forming and press area of a paper machine is.

Auch das Mischungsverhältnis läßt sich in weiten Grenzen an den jeweiligen Verwendungszweck anpassen. Damit nach Herauslösen der löslichen Teilchen in ausreichendem Maß Durchgangskanäle entstehen, sollte das Volumenverhältnis zwischen Kunststoffpulver und löslichen Teilchen im Bereich 1/4:3/4 und 1/2:1/2 liegen, vorzugsweise im Bereich 2/3:1/3.The mixing ratio can also be varied within a wide range adapt the respective purpose. So after detaching of the soluble particles to a sufficient extent through channels should arise, the volume ratio between plastic powder and soluble particles are in the range 1/4: 3/4 and 1/2: 1/2, preferably in the range 2/3: 1/3.

Um den Vorgang des Herauslösens der löslichen Komponenten und der löslichen Partikel zu vereinfachen, sollten beide aus demselben Material bestehen, so daß das Herauslösen in einem Arbeitsgang unter Verwendung desselben Lösungsmittels erfolgen kann. Für die in der Kunststoffschicht enthaltenen löslichen Komponenten sollten solche Substanzen gewählt werden, die unter der Hitzeeinwirkung bei der Erzeugung der Kunststoffschicht im wesentlichen formbeständig bleiben. Hierfür kommen polymere Fasern oder Partikel in Frage, die eine höhere Hitzebeständigkeit haben als die der Kunststoffmatrix, in die die löslichen Komponenten eingelagert sind. Zweckmäßigerweise sollten diese Bedingungen auch hinsichtlich der in die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht eingedrückten löslichen Partikel gegeben sein. Für die Anwendung besonders günstig sind jedoch anorganische Substanzen und hier insbesondere wasserlösliche Salze wie NaCl, KCl und/oder CaCO3 sowie Chloride, Karbonate und/oder lösliche Sulfate der Alkali- oder Erdalkalielemente oder der Metalle sowie auch solche Salze, wie sie sich zusätzlich noch aus der DE-C-34 19 708 ergeben. Solche löslichen Partikel bzw. Teilchen werden durch die für die Bildung der Kunststoffschicht notwendige Hitzebehandlung nicht beeinträchtigt und sind gut riesel- und damit streufähig. In Frage kommen auch anorganische Substanzen, wie beispielsweise Kohlehydrate (Zucker) oder Salze organischer Säuren, wie Zitronensäure, Ascorbinsäure etc.In order to simplify the process of removing the soluble components and the soluble particles, both should be made of the same material, so that the removal can be carried out in one operation using the same solvent. For the soluble components contained in the plastic layer, such substances should be selected that remain essentially dimensionally stable under the influence of heat when the plastic layer is being produced. For this purpose, polymeric fibers or particles come into question which have a higher heat resistance than that of the plastic matrix in which the soluble components are embedded. These conditions should expediently also apply to the soluble particles pressed into the outside of the plastic layer. However, inorganic substances and in particular water-soluble salts such as NaCl, KCl and / or CaCO 3, as well as chlorides, carbonates and / or soluble sulfates of the alkali or alkaline earth elements or of the metals, and also salts such as these, are particularly favorable for use result from DE-C-34 19 708. Such soluble particles or particles are not adversely affected by the heat treatment necessary for the formation of the plastic layer and are easy to pour and thus scatterable. Inorganic substances such as carbohydrates (sugar) or salts of organic acids such as citric acid, ascorbic acid etc. are also suitable.

Nach der Erfindung ist desweiteren vorgesehen, daß lösliche Komponenten in Form von Teilchen verwendet werden, deren mittlere Durchmesser zwischen 30 bis 500 µm liegt. Für das Eindrücken in die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht sollten lösliche Partikel verwendet werden, deren mittlere Durchmesser zwischen 5 bis 100 µm liegt. Dem Kunststoffpulver sollten Antioxidantien, wie sie beispielsweise aus der US-A-3 677 965 oder US-A-3 584 047 bekannt sind, beigemengt werden.According to the invention it is further provided that soluble components used in the form of particles, the mean Diameter is between 30 to 500 microns. For impressing in the outside of the plastic layer should have soluble particles are used, whose average diameter is between 5 and 100 µm. The plastic powder should have antioxidants like them known for example from US-A-3 677 965 or US-A-3 584 047 are to be added.

In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß lösliche Komponenten aus wenigstens zwei Substanzen verwendet werden, wobei jeweils eine der Substanzen durch ein Lösungsmittel herauslösbar ist, gegenüber dem die jeweils andere(n) Substanz(en) beständig ist bzw. sind. Dies eröffnet die Möglichkeit, zunächst nur einen Teil der löslichen Komponenten herauszulösen und dann nach Installation der Materialbahn und einer gewissen Betriebszeit einmal oder mehrmals eine Gruppe weiterer löslicher Komponenten herauszulösen und damit die anfängliche Durchlässigkeit der Materialbahn wiederherzustellen, wenn die Durchlässigkeit im Betrieb durch Verschmutzung etc. nachgelassen hat. Es versteht sich, daß die im Betrieb herauszulösenden Komponenten entweder gegenüber den herrschenden Umgebungs- und Betriebsbedingungen beständig sein müssen oder daß sie sich nur verzögert und sukzessiv aus der Matrix herauslösen.In a further embodiment of the invention it is provided that soluble Components from at least two substances are used, each one of the substances by a solvent is removable, against which the other substance (s) is or are stable. This opens up the possibility first remove only part of the soluble components and then after installing the web and one one group or several times during certain operating times soluble components and thus the initial To restore permeability of the material web when the Permeability in operation decreased due to contamination etc. Has. It is understood that those to be extracted in the company Components either versus the prevailing environmental and Operating conditions must be stable or that they are only delayed and successive release from the matrix.

Nach der Erfindung ist schließlich vorgesehen, daß auch auf der anderen Seite des Trägers eine Kunststoffschicht erzeugt wird. Dies kann in analoger Weise wie bei der ersten Kunststoffschicht geschehen, also unter Bildung einer Mischung eines Kunststoffpulvers mit löslichen Teilchen und anschließender Wärme- und Druckbehandlung. Auch hier sollten in die Außenseite der Kunststoffschicht lösliche Partikel eingedrückt und dann wieder herausgelöst werden, um die Rauhigkeit an den jeweiligen Verwendungszweck anzupassen und insbesondere öffnungen für die Verbindung zu den in der Kunststoffschicht eingebetteten löslichen Komponenten zu schaffen, damit sie ebenfalls herausgelöst werden können.According to the invention it is finally provided that also on the on the other side of the carrier, a plastic layer is produced. This can be done in an analogous manner to the first plastic layer happen, so forming a mixture of one Plastic powder with soluble particles and subsequent heat and pressure treatment. Again, this should be in the outside and then plastic particles are pushed into the plastic layer be removed again to the roughness on the respective Adapt the intended use and in particular openings for the Connection to the soluble ones embedded in the plastic layer To create components so that they are also detached can be.

In der Zeichnung ist die Erfindung anhand eines stark vergrößert dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher veranschaulicht. Sie zeigt im Querschnitt einen Ausschnitt aus einer Materialbahn 1. Die Materialbahn 1 hat einen Träger 2, der als Gewebe mit Längsfaden 3 und Querfaden 4 ausgebildet ist. Auf der Ober- und Unterseite des Trägers 2 befindet sich jeweils eine Kunststoffschicht 5, 6.In the drawing, the invention is greatly enlarged on the basis of a illustrated embodiment illustrated in more detail. It shows a section of a section of a material web 1. The material web 1 has a carrier 2, which as a fabric is formed with longitudinal thread 3 and transverse thread 4. On the upper and the underside of the carrier 2 is each a plastic layer 5, 6.

Die erste Kunststoffschicht 5 ist entsprechend dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren dadurch hergestellt worden, daß eine Mischung aus einem Kunststoffpulver und löslichen Teilchen auf den Träger 2 aufgestreut und beides zusammen einer Wärme- und Druckbehandlung unterzogen worden ist. Hierdurch ist eine homogene Kunststoffschicht 5 mit darin im wesentlichen gleichmäßig verteilten löslichen Teilchen erzeugt worden, wobei sich aufgrund der Druckbehandlung eine ebene Außenfläche ergeben hat. Auf die noch erhitzte und deshalb plastisch gut verformbare Außenseite 7 der Kunststoffschicht 5 sind dann weitere lösliche Partikel aufgestreut und anschließend mittels Druckwalzen oder dergleichen in die Kunststoffschicht 5 eingedrückt worden. In entsprechender Weise ist mit der unteren Kunststoffschicht 6 verfahren worden, insbesondere in Bezug auf die Behandlung von deren Außenseite 8.The first plastic layer 5 is in accordance with the invention Process prepared by using a mixture from a plastic powder and soluble particles on the carrier 2 sprinkled and both together a heat and pressure treatment has undergone. This is a homogeneous Plastic layer 5 with substantially evenly distributed therein soluble particles have been generated, due to the pressure treatment has resulted in a flat outer surface. On the still heated and therefore plastically easily deformable outside 7 of the plastic layer 5 are then further soluble particles sprinkled and then by means of pressure rollers or the like has been pressed into the plastic layer 5. In corresponding The procedure is with the lower plastic layer 6 , especially with regard to the treatment of their Outside 8.

Danach ist die Materialbahn 1 einer Behandlung mit einem Lösungsmittel für die löslichen Partikel und Teilchen unterzogen worden. Bei dieser Behandlung haben sich zunächst die in die Außenseiten 7, 8 der Kunststoffschichten 5, 6 eingedrückten löslichen Partikel aufgelöst und dabei Einprägungen - beispielhaft mit 9 bezeichnet - hinterlassen. Diese Einprägungen 9 haben zumindest teilweise nicht nur untereinander, sondern auch Verbindung zu den den Außenseiten 7, 8 naheliegenden löslichen Teilchen der Kunststoffschichten 5, 6 geschaffen, so daß das Lösungsmittel auch diese Teilchen erreicht und auflöst. Die Auflösung hat zur Folge, daß in den Kunststoffschichten 5, 6 Porenhohlräume - beispielhaft mit 10 bezeichnet - entstehen, welche die Formgebung des jeweils herausgelösten Teilchen haben und untereinander in Verbindung stehen. Dabei ist eine Verbindung nicht nur in vertikaler Richtung gegeben, sondern aufgrund der gleichmäßigen Verteilung der löslichen Teilchen auch in horizontaler Richtung. Damit ist eine Porenstruktur vorhanden, die einem offenporigen Kunststoffschaum ähnelt, wobei sich die Porenhohlräume 10 zu Durchgangskanälen ergänzen.Thereafter, the material web 1 is a treatment with a solvent subjected to the soluble particles and particles been. With this treatment, those in the Outside 7, 8 of the plastic layers 5, 6 indented soluble Particles dissolved and impressions - exemplary designated 9 - leave. These impressions 9 have at least sometimes not only with each other, but also connection to the soluble particles close to the outer sides 7, 8 the plastic layers 5, 6 created so that the solvent these particles are also reached and dissolved. The resolution has the consequence that 5, 6 pore cavities in the plastic layers - exemplified with 10 - arise, which have the shape of the particle detached and communicate with each other. There is a connection not only given in the vertical direction, but due to the even distribution of the soluble particles also in horizontal Direction. This creates a pore structure that resembles an open-pore plastic foam, with the pore cavities Add 10 to through-channels.

Die Porenhohlräume 10 der obenseitigen Kunststoffschicht 5 sind zum Träger 2 hin größer als im Bereich der Außenseite 7. Dies läßt sich dadurch herstellen, daß zunächst eine Mischung aus Kunststoffpulver und relativ großen löslichen Teilchen und danach eine weitere Mischung aus Kunststoffpulver und demgegenüber kleineren löslichen Teilchen aufgetragen wird. Bei der untenseitigen Kunststoffschicht 6 ist ein Kunststoffpulver mit noch größeren löslichen Teilchen verwendet worden, so daß die Porenhohlräume 10 größer sind als die der obenseitigen Kunststoffschicht 3.The pore cavities 10 of the top plastic layer 5 are towards the carrier 2 larger than in the area of the outside 7. This can be prepared by first mixing Plastic powder and relatively large soluble particles and after another mixture of plastic powder and in contrast smaller soluble particles is applied. With the underside Plastic layer 6 is a plastic powder with even larger soluble particles have been used so that the Pore cavities 10 are larger than that of the plastic layer on the top 3rd
