As the treatment method of the present invention, a method using a high-pressure water flow (spunlace method) is employed. A thin layer of two-dimensionally entangled fibers laid in a scaly shape is also entangled with each other in the cross-sectional direction, and is three-dimensionally integrated. Gender and soft texture are increased. The reason for this is not well understood, but it is presumed that the reason is that the tension between the fibers, such as migration between the fibers and the pulling of the fibers due to the kneading effect, is reduced and reduced in a range that does not lead to cutting by water pressure. The fibers need to penetrate the flaky sheet,
The surface fibers need not penetrate to the back layer. It is presumed that this may increase the extensibility by displacing the surface and further displacing the cross section, thereby enabling a large deformation. The reason why it does not break due to large deformation is presumed that the fiber itself has elasticity and the fiber penetrating the flaky thin layer has elasticity, so only the penetrating part between the thin layers does not act as a wedge It is thought.

この様な現象はニードルパンチ交絡処理では起こらな

It is considered that such a phenomenon does not occur in the needle punch confounding process.

Further, it is considered that since the fibers were not bonded independently of each other, the degree of freedom at the time of elongation was increased and the stretchability was improved.

It is preferable that the entanglement treatment for imparting elasticity, strong form retention and soft texture by interlacing fibers with each other is performed at a pitch as fine as possible. For example, the distance between the confounding points is preferably 20 mm or less, more preferably 10 mm or less, but strong when entangled at a very fine pitch, the shape retention is increased but the elasticity is slightly reduced, so that the desired elasticity is obtained. What is necessary is just to select an appropriate condition.

好ましい本発明の伸縮性不織布を得る方法は例えば以
下の方法が例示できる。
A preferred method for obtaining the stretchable nonwoven fabric of the present invention is, for example, the following method.

ート化が困難な為である。
The sheet in which the scale-like thin layers composed of substantially thin long fibers are laminated is formed by a melt blow method. The other method is because it is difficult to form a laminated sheet.

来るが、極細で糸切れを生じない条件を選択する必要が

A known method can be basically used as the melt blow method, but it is necessary to select a condition that is extremely fine and does not cause thread breakage.

伸長できる粘度を保てる温度を設定する。
In order to impart elasticity and shape retention to the nonwoven fabric, the strength of the constituent fibers is preferably higher.To maintain the strength of the fibers, it is better to suppress deterioration without lowering the molecular weight of the polymer. The spinning temperature is short and the temperature is as low as possible, but in order to obtain fine fibers, the temperature is set so that the viscosity can be extended smoothly.

牽引流体は細くできて糸切れしない温度と流速となる
条件を選択する必要がある。
It is necessary to select a condition in which the traction fluid has a temperature and a flow rate at which the traction fluid can be made thin and the thread does not break.

吐出孔径は細いほうが均繊度の良い細い繊維が得られ
易いが所望の繊維径になる適切な吐出量その他の条件と
の兼ね合いで設定する必要がある。
The smaller the discharge hole diameter is, the more easily fine fibers having a good uniformity can be obtained. However, it is necessary to set the discharge hole diameter in consideration of an appropriate discharge amount and other conditions to obtain a desired fiber diameter.

また均繊度の良好な糸切れしない繊維を得る条件とし
て粘度斑、温度斑、流速斑、吐出斑のないノズル構造と

Further, as a condition for obtaining a fiber having good uniformity and not breaking yarn, it is preferable to use a nozzle structure free from unevenness in viscosity, unevenness in temperature, unevenness in flow velocity, and unevenness in discharge.

更には開繊度の良好な伸縮性不織布とするにはノズル
の孔間ピッチを短くし過ぎると紐状化するので適切な間
隔を選択する必要がある。
Further, in order to form a stretchable nonwoven fabric having a good degree of opening, if the pitch between the nozzle holes is too short, a string is formed. Therefore, it is necessary to select an appropriate interval.

引取り条件ではノズルと引取りネット間距離が短すぎ

織布となる適切な距離を選択するのが好ましい。
Under the take-off conditions, if the distance between the nozzle and the take-off net is too short, the fibers will fuse together and the elasticity will decrease or the texture will become hard, while if it is too long, the fibers will become entangled due to the stall of the pulling fluid, forming a string. Therefore, it is preferable to select an appropriate distance that results in a stretchable nonwoven fabric having a good degree of opening.

また繊維の配列状態により特定方向にしか伸縮性が付
与出来ないことがあり所望の伸縮性付与方向により繊維
の配列状態を選択し条件を決める必要がある。
In addition, depending on the arrangement state of the fibers, the elasticity can be given only in a specific direction, and it is necessary to select the arrangement state of the fibers and determine the conditions depending on the desired direction of imparting the elasticity.

Next, the laminated sheets are three-dimensionally entangled by a high-pressure water flow.

A known method can be basically used for the three-dimensional confounding treatment with a high-pressure water flow.

The three-dimensional entanglement treatment with a high-pressure water stream may be performed only on one side of the sheet, but preferably the flake-like thin layers are entangled with fibers without penetrating the fibers from the surface to the back side by treating with water streams from both sides. The estimating mechanism effect can withstand large deformation and improve the elasticity.

適正な条件を選択する。保持ネットの網目は細かい方が
均質な交絡が可能となるが交絡点密度や部分貫通点の必
要度合い等により網目の形態を選択する。
The smaller the diameter of the water nozzle, the harder it is for the through-hole of the water stream to remain, and the lower the confounding force. Therefore, appropriate conditions should be selected in consideration of sheet thickness and fiber diameter. The finer the mesh of the holding net is, the more uniform the confounding becomes possible. However, the form of the mesh is selected according to the density of the confounding points and the necessary degree of the partial penetration points.

The pressure of the water flow depends on the thickness of the cross section to be entangled,
If it is too high, the stretchable fiber may cause excessive constriction due to excessive entanglement. It is preferable to select an appropriate pressure condition that satisfies the required degree of the partial penetration point or the like.

る。
If all of the entangled points penetrate from the front to the back of the sheet, the strength of the nonwoven fabric increases but the stretchability decreases, so that the entangled state can be controlled according to the desired stretchability, strength, shape retention and texture. For example, it is also possible to adopt a method in which nozzles having different hole diameters or pipe lengths of the water flow nozzles are installed so as to correspond to a desired distribution. Since the entanglement density in the width direction is determined by the interval between the holes of the nozzles, parallel arrangement using a staggered arrangement or the like can also be selected for fineness.

The vertical spacing depends on the processing speed. Set the speed to the desired density. When randomization or a pattern-like confounding point is required, a method such as rotating the water jet nozzle or turning at a constant cycle can be used.

上述の選択条件は素材により異なるので所望の性能か

Since the above-described selection conditions differ depending on the material, it is preferable to set the material and the condition each time from desired performance.

After three-dimensional entanglement with a high-pressure water stream, the sheet is dried with hot air or the like to remove moisture. However, if the temperature of the hot air is too high, the sheet is fused, so an appropriate temperature is set according to the material. Further, in order to perform drying efficiently, it is preferable to remove as much moisture as possible by suction or the like.
