Abstract
The nozzle piece of the present invention is provided with circular cross sectional nozzles having different sizes disposed in a row in front of the die, with n-numbered smaller nozzles B (hole diameter: Db) between adjacent larger nozzles A (hole diameter: Da). It gives melt-blown non-woven fabric of monolithic structure in one step, composed of fine fibers having a diameter in a range from 1 to 10 μm diameter Variance ratio F of 2.0 or more and wide fiber diameter distribution.
Claims1
Melt-blown non-woven fabric composed of fibers of 1 to 10 μm in diameter, having a fiber diameter distribution with a fiber diameter Variance ratio (F), defined by the following formula, more than 2.0, obtained by using a nozzle piece equipped with a plurality of nozzles (A) having circular cross section with a hole diameter (Da) and nozzles (B) also having circular cross section with a hole diameter (Db), which is smaller than (Da), disposed in a row in front of the die, wherein a ratio Da/Db is from 1.3 to 2.0, and wherein 2 to 4 of the nozzles (B) are disposed between the adjacent nozzles (A);
- Fiber diameter Variance ratio:
- V/V0
- wherein (V0) is an unbiased variance of fiber diameter which a non-woven fabric would have when produced by a nozzle piece with nozzles of the same hole diameter, and (V is an unbiased variance of fiber diameter for the non-woven fabric produced by said nozzle piece equipped with nozzles (A) and (B).
