PROCESS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF SPUNBONDED NONWOVEN
The invention relates to a process (100, 101) for the production of spunbonded nonwovens (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) and a device (200, 201) for the production of spunbonded nonwovens (1.1, 1.2, 1.3), wherein, in the process (100, 101), a spinning mass (2) is extruded through a plurality of nozzle holes (4.1, 4.2, 4.3) of at least a first spinneret (3.1) and a second spinneret (3.2) to form filaments (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) and the filaments (5.1, 5.2, 5.3) are drawn, in each case, in the extrusion direction, with the filaments (5.1) of the first spinneret (3.1) being deposited on the conveyor belt (9) to form a first spunbonded nonwoven (1.1) and the filaments (5.2) of the second spinneret (3.2) being deposited on the conveyor belt (9) to form a second spunbonded nonwoven (1.2) over the first spunbonded nonwoven (1.1) in order to obtain a multi-layered spunbonded nonwoven (10). For increasing the throughput of the process, it is suggested that the multi-layered spunbonded nonwoven (10) is separated into at least the first spunbonded nonwoven (1.1) and the second spunbonded nonwoven (1.2) in a subsequent step and the first and second spunbonded nonwovens (1.1, 1.2) after separation each undergo a hydroentanglement (15.1, 15.2) and optionally a drying (12) individually and/or are each wound up individually.
POLYAMIDE 5X FIBER, PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF, AND USE THEREOF
The present application discloses a polyamide 5X fiber, wherein raw materials for producing the polyamide 5X fiber comprise at least 1,5-pentane diamine and a long carbon chain diacid; or comprises a polyamide 5X obtained by the polymerization of 1,5-pentane diamine and a long carbon chain diacid as monomers. The 1,5-pentane diamine or the long carbon chain diacid are produced from bio-based raw materials by a fermentation process or an enzymatic conversion process; and the long carbon chain diacid is at least one of C6-20 aliphatic long carbon chain diacids. The long carbon chain diacid is at least one of C6-20 aliphatic long carbon chain diacids. The polyamide 5X fiber includes pre-oriented yarns, drawn textured yarns, fully drawn yarns, staple fibers, industrial yarns, continuous bulked filaments and monofilaments, preferably pre-oriented yarns, drawn textured yarns and/or fully drawn yarns. The raw materials used for producing the polyamide 5X resin are prepared by biological processes, and are green materials. The polyamide 5X fiber has good mechanical properties, dimensional stability, softness, quick-drying performance and dyeing properties.

Melt blown web with good water barrier properties
Melt-blown fiber comprising two polypropylenes which differ in their molecular weight.
Cusp die for producing melt-blown non-woven fabric
A cusp die for producing melt-blown non-woven fabric is provided, defining a sagittal plane, a main extension direction on the sagittal plane, a first flank and a second flank mutually bounded by the sagittal plane and including an ejection portion extending along the main extension direction and designed to convey, in use, polymeric fluid towards an external air blade, at least one extrusion pipe configured to convey the polymeric fluid towards the ejection portion, a plurality of holes arranged in the ejection portion, placed in fluidic through connection with the extrusion pipe and communicating with the outside, wherein the holes are arranged along at least one first row and a second row that are distinct and arranged respectively at the first flank and the second flank.
HYBRID ELECTROSPINNER FOR CORE-SHELL FIBER FABRICATION
Electrospinning (ES) provides the technical community with a readily available method to produce polymer fibers ranging from nanoscale to microscale. Here, we present a novel “hybrid electrospirming apparatus,” whereby, modifications to a melt electrospinner have allowed fabrication of core-sheath fibers with polymer sheaths and solution-based cores. These modifications include a split polymer melt heating block, coaxial block spinneret equipped with heaters and multiple feed ports for core and sheath material, and a wiring system for heat which requires multiple switches for safety and on-demand heat activation. Successful demonstration of coaxial fiber fabrication is demonstrated using polycaprolactone-polyethylene oxide blend shell and fluorescent gelatin core materials.
