Title:
ULTRAFINE POLYPROPYLENE FIBER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JPH11140719
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To obtain an ultrafine polypropylene fiber for nonwoven fabric, produced by melt-spinning method and having a fineness of <0.5 de.

This ultrafine polypropylene fiber is produced by adding 0.001-5 pts.wt. of a nucleation agent to form a β-crystal, to 100 pts.wt. of a homopolypropylene or an ethylene-propylene copolymer containing ≤4 wt.% of ethylene unit and having a melt flow rate of 20-1,500 g/10 min, melt-spinning the obtained polypropylene resin composition under slow-cooling and highly drawing the produced undrawn yarn. A nonwoven fabric produced by using the ultrafine polypropylene fiber has improved liquid-retention as a battery separator and improved dust-collecting and filtering performance as a filter.
