Title:
PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF POLYLACTIC ACID-BASED AIR-THROUGH NONWOVEN FABRIC, AND POLYLACTIC ACID-BASED AIR-THROUGH NONWOVEN FABRIC
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/118292
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a process for producing an air-through nonwoven fabric, which comprises the steps of: forming a web that comprises composite fibers each comprising a first polylactic acid and a second polylactic acid having a lower melting point than that of the first polylactic acid; subjecting the web to a first air-through treatment at a temperature (T1) that is higher than the glass transition temperature of the second polylactic acid and is lower than the melting point of the second polylactic acid; and subjecting the web that has been subjected to the first air-through treatment to a second air-through treatment at a temperature (T2) that is equal to or higher than a temperature lower by -5˚C than the melting point of the second polylactic acid and is equal to or lower than a temperature that is higher by 15˚C than the melting point of the second polylactic acid for the purpose of producing the air-through nonwoven fabric. The process is characterized in that the air-through nonwoven fabric has a degree of crystallinity of 44 to 68%.
