Title:
BULKY NONWOVEN FABRIC AND ITS PRODUCTION
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3657700
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a bulky nonwoven fabric excellent in mechanical strength and dimensional stability by interlacing a short fiber web with an oriented nonwoven fabric comprising thermoplastic filaments followed by conducting a heat treatment.
SOLUTION: First, an oriented nonwoven fabric (b) is produced by unidirectionally orienting by a factor of 3-20 a filament nonwoven fabric produced by spinning a thermoplastic resin such as a polyolefin or polyester. The oriented nonwoven fabric (b) is either a unidirectionally oriented nonwoven fabric composed of at least one layer of constituent filaments 2b oriented nearly unidirectionally, or an oriented cross-laminated nonwoven fabric (c) with a plurality of the nearly unidirectionally oriented constituent filaments 2b laminated mutually so as to cross their orientational axes with one another. Subsequently, the oriented nonwoven fabric (b) is interlaced with a staple fiber web (a) comprising natural fibers, regenerated fibers or synthetic fibers by water jet technique followed by conducting a heat treatment to effect shrinkage of the filaments 2b and crimping of the staple fibers 2a constituting the staple fiber web (a), thus obtaining the objective bulky nonwoven fabric 1.
