20100261399 | CONJUGATE FIBER HAVING LOW-TEMPERATURE PROCESSABILITY, NONWOVEN FABRIC AND FORMED ARTICLE USING THE CONJUGATE FIBER - To provide a conjugate fiber that demonstrates low-temperature processability and excellent thermal adhesiveness without shrinking significantly, can be processed with excellent card passability when processed into a nonwoven fabric, and can produce a bulky nonwoven fabric having excellent uniformity. Bulky nonwoven fabric and a formed article having excellent low-temperature processability and excellent feeling are also provided. A conjugate fiber in which a first component that contains at least 75% by weight of an ethylene α-olefin copolymer having a melting point of 70 to 100° C. and a second component that contains a crystalline polypropylene form a side-by-side cross section, wherein, in a fiber cross section perpendicular to a fiber axis, the first component accounts for 55 to 90% of an outer periphery of the fiber, a borderline between the first component and the second component forms a curve bulging toward the first component, and an area ratio between the first component and the second component (first component/second component) is in a range of 70/30 to 30/70; a nonwoven fabric obtained by processing the conjugate fiber into a nonwoven fabric; and a formed article obtained using the conjugate fiber. | 10-14-2010 |
20110240210 | PROCESSING APPARATUS FOR HOT-AIR TREATMENT OF FIBER CONSTITUTING NONWOVEN FABRIC TO PRODUCE NONWOVEN FABRIC, AND PROCESSING PROCESS FOR THE SAME - The present invention provides a processing apparatus and a processing method capable of producing a point-through-air nonwoven fabric wherein hot air is allowed to penetrate through spots of a web or a sheet-like material and fibers at the penetration site are heat-bonded. Specifically, the present invention provides a processing apparatus for hot-air treatment nonwoven fabric, comprising: a rotating running endless belt with holes, a hot-air blowing apparatus which blows out hot air from an internal side of the endless belt with holes toward an outer side thereof, and an endless belt for fiber conveyance which is arranged on a side opposite to the hot-air blowing side of the hot-air blowing apparatus across the endless belt with holes and rotates with passing the hot-air therethrough. | 10-06-2011 |
20110250390 | NONWOVEN FABRIC HAVING STRETCHABILITY, AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - The invention provides a stretchable nonwoven fabric which has concavo-convex structure on the surface, is bulky and highly flexible, has air permeability, and is capable of displaying stretchability in all directions irrespective of the directions of MD and CD. Specifically, the invention provides a stretchable nonwoven fabric, comprising a fiber layer ( | 10-13-2011 |
20110250816 | BULKY NONWOVEN FABRIC - The invention provides a nonwoven fabric which can improve these problems of the conventional technologies, can be produced at relatively low costs, is bulky and excellent in cushioning properties, has a good texture and is excellent in shaping ability at post-processing. Specifically, the present invention provides a bulky nonwoven fabric, comprising a fiber layer A containing a spiral crimp fiber and a fiber layer B, wherein the fiber layer B is laminated on at least one surface of the fiber layer A, the spiral crimp fiber of the fiber layer A and the fiber of the fiber layer B are partly entangled and integrated at the interface in a thickness direction of both layers, the fiber layer B exhibits a structure in which the layer is lifted up to the fiber layer B side between individual entangled parts; and having a specific volume of 30 cm | 10-13-2011 |
20120107567 | NONWOVEN FABRIC WITH SURFACE UNEVEN STRUCTURE, AND PRODUCT USING SAME - A nonwoven fabric having a surface concavo-convex structure, and a molded member and a wiping cloth that use the nonwoven fabric are provided. The nonwoven fabric having a surface concavo-convex structure is formed by pressing a planar element having a plurality of apertures against at least one surface of a nonwoven fabric that has been formed by passing hot air through a web including heat adhesive fibers so as to heat-bond interlacing points between the fibers. The pressing process is performed in a state where the nonwoven fabric retains heat in a degree that does not further promote the heat bonding. The nonwoven fabric having a surface concavo-convex structure is soft and exhibits high strength and sufficient resistance against stress. | 05-03-2012 |
20120164378 | FUNCTIONAL SHEET - A functional sheet is described, in which a modifier is uniformly and exactly scattered and deposited such that sites where the modifier is deposited and sites where no modifier is deposited are clearly discriminated. The functional sheet is obtained by masking a surface of a sheet containing at least one fibrous layer on the surface by a planar object having a plurality of openings, applying a solution of a modifier from a side of the planar object, and allowing the modifier to deposit onto a whole surface of the sheet exposed to the openings of the planar object, and a functional sheet in which sites where the modifier is deposited form projections and sites where no modifier is deposited form plains in a surface fibrous layer of the functional sheet. | 06-28-2012 |
