Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to wet-laid nonwoven webs made from unpulped long natural fiber bundles and to hydro- entangled composite sheet material containing such nonwoven webs.
- pulped fibers are dispersed in an aqueous medium and deposited in sheet form on a paperforming wire or screen.
- the pulped fibers are the natural single elementary fiber units obtained from the pulping process. These elementary fibers, prior to the pulping process, are bundled together and held by several natural binding components such as lignin and hemicellulose. The pulping process removes these binding components, leaving behind mostly the elementary cellulosic fibers. This breakdown of the fiber bundles is desirable since the freed elementary fibers are more manageable and provide a desired sheet uniformity while con- tributing to the strength and brightness of the resultant sheet material.
- pulped vegetable fibers of increased length are employed as compared to the shorter wood pulp fibers.
- These long vegetable fibers impart improved mechanical properties and include elementary fibers such as sisal, hemp, caroa, flax, jute and abaca fibers, as mentioned in Homonoff et al U.S. 5,151 ,320 and
- wet-laid nonwovens of inorganic fibers such as glass, carbon, silica carbide and others also are known and have been used for composite applications where the anisotropic properties of the wet-laid nonwoven are desirable for reinforcement purposes.
- These inorganic fibers advantageously impart to the nonwovens their high modulus of elasticity, which result in improved reinforcement at a minimal weight penalty.
- Interior headliners for motor vehicles heretofore have consisted of moldable multi-layer assemblies comprised of a foam core with layers of fiberglass adhered to opposite planar surfaces thereof.
- a plastic moisture barrier film such as a polyethylene film is applied to the backside fiberglass layer (the side closest to the vehicle roof) and paper fleeces are employed as cover layers over the film to prevent sticking during the molding operation.
- a cloth fabric or equivalent layer covers the front fiberglass layer closest to the interior of the vehicle.
- Such headliner materials exhibit not only the necessary thermoforming characteristics, but the fiberglass reinforcing fibers provide a modulus of elasticity exceeding that of the resin matrix and impart the requisite stiffness to the resultant product.
- the industry seeks to obviate the use of fiberglass in such applications without adversely impacting on the desirable characteristics thereof, particularly the thermoforming and modulus or stiffness characteristics.
- nonwoven web materials without using fiberglass or bulky, heavy weight materials that have evidenced nonuniform constructions hereinbefore.
- This is achieved by using wet-laid nonwoven webs made with long vegetable fiber bundles as the predominant fiber component.
- Such nonwoven webs may be used individually or as part of composite structures as the reinforcing or stiffening component of such com- posites.
- the unpulped fiber bundles exhibit the requisite high modulus of elasticity necessary to replace the inorganic fibers employed heretofore.
- the anisotropic characteristic of the wet-laid nonwoven material is main- tained.
- the sheet material of the present invention completely replaces the inorganic reinforcing fibers and employs select unpulped natural long fiber bundles in a water-laid web.
- the long fiber web material may be used alone or as a composite to replace the prior three layered structure of fiberglass substrate, thermoplastic film and nonwoven backing.
- the resultant product combines lightweight, reduced bulk and high stiffness in molded form with good moldability and mold release as well as high elongation and barrier properties against resin flow.
- the nonwoven fibrous web material formed in accordance with the invention is made by a wet papermaking process that involves the general steps of forming a fluid dispersion of the requisite fibers, depositing the dispersed fibers on a fiber collecting wire in the form of a continuous sheet-like web material.
- the fiber dispersion may incorporate up to 2% by weight, preferably about 1 % by weight, of a wet strength additive and, following sheet formation, may be used as one component of a composite to provide the desired synergistic strength and modulus characteristics while facilitating use in moldable applications.
- the fiber furnish is a blend of natural pulp, man-made fibers and a predominant amount of unpulped natural fiber bundles.
- the pulp component of the fiber furnish can be selected from substantially any class of pulp and blends thereof.
- the pulp is characterized by being entirely natural cellulosic fibers and can include cotton as well as wood fibers, although softwood papermaking pulp, such as spruce, hemlock, cedar and pine are typically employed. Hardwood pulp and non-wood pulp, such as hemp and sisal may also be used.
- the natural pulp may constitute up to about 40 percent by weight of the total fiber content of the web material.
- the nonwoven web material also may contain a significant concentration of man-made fibers blended with the wood pulp.
- the typical man-made fiber is a polyester such as polyethylene terepthalate.
- the synthetic fiber component is not limited to polyesters, but can include other synthetic and man-made fibers that are either non-cellulosic or cellulosic in nature.
- cellulose acetate, viscose rayon, nylon or polyolefin fibers such as polypropylene fibers also may be used.
- the lower denier materials are of slightly shorter length than the higher denier in view of the tendency of the lower denier fiber to entangle prior to deposition on the web forming screen.
- 3 dpf fibers can be used at lengths of about 1 5 mm, while it is preferred to use a 1 .5 dpf fiber at a length of about 10 mm and a 6 dpf fiber at a length of 25 mm.
- still longer fibers may be used where desired so long as they can be readily dispersed within the aqueous slurry of the other fibers.
- the amount of synthetic fibers used in the furnish may also vary depending upon the other components, it is generally preferred that less than 30 percent by weight be employed.
- the man- made content is at least 5 percent by weight, with 5 - 25 percent by weight and preferably 5 - 1 5 percent by weight being used in most cases.
- the furnish of the present invention includes unpulped natural fibers as the predominant component. As mentioned, some strength is imparted by the kraft fibers.
- the predominant reinforcement characteristics are achieved in accordance with the present invention by including long unpulped vegetable fibers and particularly the extremely long natural, unpulped fiber bundles of cordage fibers chopped to a length in the range of 1 0 - 50 mm. These very long natural fiber bundles supplement the strength characteristics provided by the bleach kraft and, at the same time, provide a natural toughness and burst strength.
- fiber bundle lengths up to 100 mm or more may be employed, the more typical longest fiber bundles utilized are about 50 mm or less in length. Products made from fibers having a length range of about 10 - 35 mm are preferable with commercial products frequently having a fiber bundle length of about 20 - 30 mm. It is of course appreciated that the fiber bundles can readily be chopped to any desired length and are not chemically pulped but used in their natural state.
- Suitable binders can include both the chemical binders such as acrylics, polyvinyl alcohols, vinyl acetates, styrene derivatives such as styrene butadiene rubbers, polyesters, and other traditional chemical binder families; as well as synthetic binder fibers.
- Synthetic binder fibers commonly used are the polyvinyl alcohols, and the many bicomponent temperature sensitive fibers such as polyolefin and polyesters.
- a suitable binder content can be in the range of 2 to 30 weight percent of final product, with the lower end of that range being preferred, such as about 3 - 10% with about 5% being most preferred. Binder addition is accomplished by the common chemical methods, wet-end additions, and thermal conditioning. In place of chemical binders, the webs may be hydroentangled.
- the basis weight of the long fiber nonwoven web material may vary from about 50 - 80 g/m 2 to about 200 g/m 2 depending on the desired end use.
- the preferred material has a basis weight in excess of
- 100 g/m 2 and typically falls in the range of about 105 - 135 g/m 2 and more preferably about 120 - 130 g/m 2 .
- the composite multilayer materials made from the long natural fiber bundle webs are formed by combining a layer of such a nonwoven with a stretchable first layer of high content thermoplastics, such as fibers with a low melting point temperature, and a cover layer of high content wood pulp or other natural or synthetic heat resistant fibers.
- the composite can be formed by taking three individual and distinct layers, or a number of other layered combinations having the above- stated properties, and hydroentangling them together to form a single finished composite product.
- Other methods of combining the various layers include, but are not limited to needle punching, thermal point bonding, adhesive lamination, and multi-phase wet-laid forming.
- the hydroentangling operation is carried out in the manner set forth in Homonoff et al U.S. 5,51 5,320 issued September 29, 1 992, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
- While that patent relates to a fiber web having a significantly higher manmade fiber content, preferably within the range of 40 - 90 percent man-made fiber, the hydroentangling operation described therein can efficaciously be employed with the web material of the present invention.
- the hydroentanglement treatment entangles together the fibers forming the web in such a manner as to provide a total energy input that preferably is less than about 0.4 horsepower-hours per pound of web.
- the total energy required to treat the web can range from as low as 0.01 and typically falls within the range of 0.1 - 0.25 horse- power-hours per pound of web.
- the preferred material for the high thermoplastic content first layer of the composite can be spunbonded sheets of all kinds, spunlaced material, or others, including meshes, all having elongation properties preferably of 1 5% or more in both planar directions.
- the preferred ther- moplastics are low melting point polyolefins, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, but can include other materials depending on the thermoforming temperature requirements of the composite.
- Commercially available spunbond layers may be employed. These exhibit a basis weight of about 1 0 - 50 g/m 2 with 20 g/m 2 material being preferred.
- the thermoplastic content of this layer will melt and behave as a resin matrix for the reinforcing natural fibers, and as a gluing agent to aid in adhesion to other molded part components of a headliner assembly.
- a cover layer is placed on the opposite side of the long fiber web from the spunbond layer and is typically a high wood pulp content substrate such as a paper or nonwoven.
- Other fibers can be used in the cover layer if they are heat resistant during thermoforming conditions and are equally able to provide good mold release and resin flow barrier characteristics.
- Candidate fibers include, but are not limited to polyaramids and their pulps. The preferred method for fabricating this layer is the wet-laid process due to its formation qualities and the ability to control porosity.
- a following sandwich or composite configuration of a natural fiber bundle layer between the two confining layers readily may be used for replacing the current glass/ film/nonwoven laminates.
- the central layer is of substantially greater stiffness, bulk and weight than the enclosing covering layers.
- the spunbonded layer pro- vides elongation and gluing to other layers in the composite while the wet-laid cellulose covering provides barrier properties and good mold release characteristics.
- the finished foam core sandwich samples were cut to provide ten (10) test specimens per fiber type. These specimens were tested for composite stiffness following the standard procedure per ASTM D790- 96a. This is a three point flexural test that measures the force to produce a specimen deflection of 0.25 inches at its mid-span. The span between the sample supports was held constant as was the span to depth ratio.
- Table II presents a summary of the measured test properties for the foam core sandwiches.
- the data clearly shows that unpulped vegetable fibers are a suitable substitute for glass fibers in these types of foam core sandwich composite structures, typically used in automotive headliners.
- a deflection force of 10N (2.25 lb f ) is typically specified for automotive headliners.
- All the composites incorporating the natural fiber bundle wet-laid nonwoven hand sheets exceed that minimum.
- Other applications for the long natural fiber wet-laid nonwoven can be envisioned in areas where fiberglass reinforcements are used, such as in construction applications, wall covering, plastic moldings, and others.
- This example shows that chemical binders can be used to bond the long natural fiber wet-laid nonwoven, instead of the binder fibers of Example 1 .
- a wet-laid nonwoven was formed with a fiber furnish consisting of 65% unpulped sisal fiber chopped to a length of 22 mm, 10% 1 8 mm x 1 .5 denier polyester fiber, and 25% flash dried wood pulp.
- the web was formed on an inclined wire papermaking machine resulting in a material having a basis weight of 123 g/m 2 .
- the formed nonwoven web was transferred from the forming wire, dried and a liquid binder was applied by a two-sided spray station.
- the binder used was ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), (Vinnapas 426, available from Wacker-
- the spray solution was at 6% solids of EVA, and binder pick-up by the web was 6.5 g/m 2 , for a final nonwoven basis weight of 130 g/m 2 .
- the properties of the nonwoven are set forth in Table III.
- This example shows that by employing the same forming and bonding conditions as in the above example, other fiber furnish compositions can be used to impart different properties to the wet-laid nonwoven.
- the fiber composition employed was 70% of 22 mm chopped unpulped sisal fiber, 10% of polyethylene/polypropylene 5 mm x 2.2 denier fiber, (type Herculon T-410 from FiberVisions) and 20% of flash dried wood pulp.
- the same EVA binder as Example 2 was used at the same weight level to achieve a final web basis weight of 130 g/m 2 .
- Table III provides the physical properties of this web for comparison with the web from Example 2.
- Example 4 Various examples of hydroentangled composites incorporating the long natural fiber wet-laid nonwoven as the middle layer of a three layer composite are listed below.
- the composites were hydroentangled at a line speed of about 35 ft./min.
- Four entangling units, each having 51 holes/in. and 92 ⁇ m- hole size direct water jets against the top cellulose layer to achieve the desired hydroentangled effect.
- the cellulose fibers upon impact by the water jets are pushed into the middle and bottom layers, providing satisfactory mechanical bonding.
- a Top 31 g/m 2 : 65% cellulose pulp, 35% 1 8-mm PET (no binder)
- the samples were used in the front side (adjacent the face fabric)/ back side combinations indicated in Table VI and were molded into a vehicle headliner configuration.
- the mold temperature employed was 143° C and the dwell time was 50 sec. All samples exhibited good mold release, satisfactory bleed through protection and adequate stiffness and all passed a humidity test at a relative humidity of 95% at 38° C for 100 hours.
