Description

Supatex fabric and manufacture method thereof by the blend polymer manufacturing
Prioity claim
The application requires in the priority of the U.S. Provisional Application sequence number 61/354,882 of submission on June 15th, 2010, and the disclosure of described document is incorporated herein for reference fully.
Technical field
The application relates to supatex fabric and the manufacture method thereof of being made by blend polymer.
Background technology
Polyacrylic polymer and blend polymer are made with their in the art and are are non-wovenly melted and sprayed the application of fabric and be celebrated.This kind fabric has various application, for example is used for medical treatment and health product, clothes, filter medium and g. absorbent products, comprises designing those that are used for absorbing water, oil and other chemical substance.The importance of these fabrics in absorbent is used, is the bulkiness of described fabric especially, or the thickness under specific basic weight (basis weight), and wherein higher bulkiness is more desirable.The fabric that has minimum binding (that is, poor fiber separation) and take off fibre (linting) also is desirable.
Before this, this type of supatex fabric based on propylene is to use the polypropylene GRANULES that scribbles peroxide of ziegler-natta catalyzed to prepare with meltblowing method.The interpolation of peroxide is used for the acrylic polymers visbreaking, causes using desirable higher melt flow rate (MFR) and narrower molecular weight distribution for melting and spraying.Yet this type of peroxide coating also has shortcoming, for example increase of the complexity of meltblowing method and expense and form decomposition by-products, and this is to add peroxide be undesirable.
The polymer based on propylene of metallocene catalyst also is known in the art and has been used to form meltblown fabric.Referring to, for example, U.S. Patent number 6,010,588,7,081,299 and 7,319,122, they are incorporated herein for reference.Although prepared the polymer based on propylene with high melt flow rate (MFR) and Narrow Molecular Weight Distribution with this type of single-site catalysts, thereby have the advantage that does not require reactor post processing (post reactor treatment) (for example peroxide coating), but those polymer do not cause fabric to show that some absorbent and other use desirable bulkiness and anti-binding (resistance to roping).A kind of possible method that improves the fabric bulkiness is to make the water quenching with the fused fiber cooling with fabric.Yet this also is undesirable, because the high-caliber water quenching that produces gratifying bulkiness and sometimes need causes the residual water of excessive level in the fabric.
Therefore, exploitation preparation has high bulkiness and anti-binding and does not require the reactor post processing and make the polymer composition based on propylene of the minimized meltblown fabric of water quenching will be desirable.The present invention is by reaching these targets with a small amount of polymer based on propylene that has than low melt flow speed or higher level isotacticity with the polyblend based on propylene with metallocene catalyst of high melt flow rate (MFR).Have high loft and good anti-binding and take off fibre and low-level residual moisture by the supatex fabric of blend polymer of the present invention preparation.

Hydrogen is generally used for olefinic polymerization to control polyolefinic final performance, and is for example such described in the POLYPROPYLENE HANDBOOK 76 78 (Hanser Publishers, 1996).Use this paper catalyst system, well-known, the hydrogen of higher concentration (dividing potential drop) improves the polyolefin, particularly polyacrylic melt flow rate (MFR) (MFR) that produces.Therefore MFR can be affected by density of hydrogen, and this affects again best fiber fabrication process temperature.Usually, polyacrylic MFR is higher, then can obtain thinner fiber and more uniform coverage in fabric.In addition, the resin of higher MFR can be processed under lower temperature.Affected by density of hydrogen between polymerization period or the final MFR of polymer by the final mass of the fabric of the fiber manufacturing that comprises polymer described herein.
Polyacrylic polymer by above-mentioned catalyst system and method manufacturing has improved performance.Described polypropylene is isotactic by the height that the meso running length (a meso run length) of polypropylene chains is measured often, keeps than Narrow Molecular Weight Distribution simultaneously.Isotactic polypropylene is those polymer of side alkyl space ordering on the same side of main polymer chain or plane of wherein polymer chain.Use isotactic polypropylene as an example, isotactic structure is described as having pending methyl group usually, described pending methyl group be connected at ternary (ternary) carbon atom through the continuous monomeric unit on the same side on the supposition plane of polymer carbon backbone chain, as shown below:
The degree of isotacticity can be passed through the NMR commercial measurement, and the typical nomenclature of isotaxy five unit groups is " mmmm ", wherein " meso " the two unit groups on the same side or continuous methyl in each described plane of " m " expression.Oppositely the single insertion of configuration produces rr three unit groups as follows:
Figure BDA00002576080100101
As be known in the art, any skew of the regularity of polymer architecture or upset reduce the isotacticity degree and therefore reduce the degree of crystallinity that described polymer can have.Ideally, described mmmm stroke or meso running length are longer, then polypropylene isotaxy more highly.When wishing isotachyte, defective and counter-rotating for example 1, it is undesirable that 3-or 2,1-insert.
