Definitions
- This invention relates to loop materials for touch fastening.
- This invention relates to loop material, particularly to material to be engaged with hooking members to form a fastening, to its manufacture and use, and to fasteners comprising such loop material.
- loops of the material must be exposed for engagement with mating hooks.
- compression of loop material during packaging and spooling tends to flatten standing loops, hi the case of diapers, for instance, it is desirable that the loops of the loop material provided for diaper closure not remain flattened after the diaper is unfolded and ready for use.
- the loops generally should be secured to the web sufficiently strongly so that the loop material provides a desired degree of peel strength when the fastener is disengaged, and so that the loop material retains is usefulness over a desired number of closure cycles.
- the desired peel strength and number of closure cycles will depend on the application in which the fastener is used. For example, a higher number of closure cycles is typically required when the fastener is used in a bag closure than when the fastener is used in a diaper closure.
- the loop component should also have sufficient strength, integrity, and secure anchoring of the loops so that the loop component can withstand forces it will encounter during use, including dynamic peel forces and static forces of shear and tension.
- non- woven fabrics constructed with certain structural features are capable of functioning well for their intended purpose as hook- engageable loop fabrics, while providing particular advantage in regard to expense of manufacture and other properties.
- the invention features a loop material for touch fastening that includes a web of nonwoven fibrous material defining a plane.
- the web includes (a) raised areas, elevated above the plane of the web, defining loops constructed for engagement with male touch fastener elements; (b) rib areas surrounding the raised areas to anchor the loops; and (c) between the rib areas, planar areas that are substantially in the plane of the web.
- the web includes, instead of planar areas, open areas (apertures) between the rib areas.
- Implementations of the invention may include one or more of the following features.
- the rib areas include a polymeric reinforcing material.
- the rib areas extend above the plane of the web.
- the planar areas include unbonded fibers, i.e., the fibers in the planer areas are substantially unfused.
- the planar areas are substantially free of polymeric reinforcing material.
- the planar areas include fibers backed by a layer of polymeric reinforcing material.
- the rib areas include closed members (closed geometric shapes) that surround the raised areas.
- the raised areas are polygonal and the closed members include polygons.
- the raised areas are substantially dome-shaped and the closed members include rings or ellipses.
- the rib areas further include connecting members extending between the closed members.
- the closed members and the connecting members together define a network.
- the open areas and the network define a net material.
- the web is a carded web.
- the carded web includes staple fibers.
- the polymeric reinforcing material is the same material as the fibrous material. At least some of the closed members are tangential to each other.
- the invention features a loop material for touch fastening including a web of nonwoven fibrous material defining a plane, the web including: (a) raised areas, elevated above the plane of the web, defining loops constructed for engagement with male touch fastener elements; and (b) rib areas surrounding the raised areas to anchor the loops, the rib areas having a height of at least 0.003 inch above the plane of the web.
- the invention also features methods of forming loop materials.
- the invention features a method of forming a loop material for touch fastening.
- the method includes: (a) passing a nonwoven web through a nip between a flat roll and an embossing roll; and (b) during step (a), applying pressure to the nonwoven web.
- the embossing roll includes a patterned surface comprising depressions, grooves and lands which correspond, respectively, to raised areas, rib areas and planar or open areas of the loop material, the raised areas defining loops constructed for engagement with male touch fastener elements, and the rib areas surrounding the raised areas to anchor the loops.
- Implementations of this aspect of the invention may include one or more of the following features.
- the nonwoven web has a basis weight of less than about 1 osy, more preferably less than about 0.5 osy.
- the method further includes heating at least one of the rolls to a temperature of from about 250°F to 400°F.
- Step (b) is conducted at a pressure of from about 1,000 psi to 20,000 psi, more preferably at least 10,000 psi.
- hook-engageable and similar terms used above and throughout this specification, we mean that the loop material defines openings of size adequate to receive the tip or head portion of a male fastener element (such as a hook-shape or mushroom-shape element, for instance) for forming a fastening, and that the openings are exposed and extended for engagement.
- the invention can provide an inexpensive loop product which can effectively engage and retain hooks, such as in hook-and-loop fasteners.
- the loop product can be particularly useful in combination with extremely small, inexpensive molded hooks as fasteners for disposable products, such as diapers, medical devices or packaging.
- the structure of the material described below in more detail, helps to prevent permanent flattening of the loops and provides some advantageous crush resistance.
- the balance of properties of the loop material e.g., cost, weight, strength and durability
- the balance of properties of the loop material can be easily adjusted, as will be discussed below.

- Figs. 7 and 8 are partial cross-sectional views similar to that shown in Fig. 6B, but showing alternate geometries for the roll surface.
- Preferred loop materials include a nonwoven web having raised areas, elevated above the plane of the web, which define loops constructed for engagement with male touch fasteners.
- the raised areas provide regions of loose, uncompressed fibers that are capable of being engaged by hooking elements.
- the raised areas are surrounded by rib areas, which preferably include a bead of polymeric reinforcing material. Portions of the loose fibers are embedded and fixed in the polymeric material and can therefore support loads from the engaging hooks. Between the rib areas lie other areas which may either be open areas, or planar areas of the nonwoven web, as will be discussed in detail below.
- the loop material 10 includes raised areas in the form of loop domes 12, ring-shaped rib areas 14 surrounding the loop domes 12, and connecting rib areas 16 extending between the ring-shaped rib areas 14. Between the rib areas 14, 16 lie planar areas 18 of compressed fibers. The planar areas 18 lie substantially in the plane of the web, and are not intended for engagement with hook members.
- the loop material 10 may be formed by passing a lightweight nonwoven web and a polymeric film layer through an embossing roll under pressure, as will be discussed in further detail below.
- the embossing roll includes channels corresponding to the rib areas 14, 16, along which the polymer of the film layer can flow in response to the applied pressure.
- the polymer provided by the film layer migrates preferentially into the rib areas, leaving the planar areas and loop domes relatively free of polymer.
- the highly compressed fibers in the planar areas are lightly bonded to each other by the remaining polymer, producing a very thin and flexible film in this area. The displacement of most of the polymer into the rib areas creates an overall flexible fabric.
- the ratio between the planar areas and raised areas may be adjusted to produce plastic ridges of sufficient dimension to be an effective fiber anchor using a polymeric film of any desired thickness.
- a high ratio of planar areas to raised areas ensures good fiber anchoring, but reduces the amount of available hook engaging fibers.
- the planar areas should comprise less than less than 50% of the total surface area of the loop material, preferably less than 25%, and more preferably less than
- the loop domes preferably have a height Hp of from about 0.030 to 0.100 inch.
- the ring-shaped rib areas preferably have a height H R of from about 0.003 to 0.030 inch, and a width W R of from about 0.003 to 0.030 inch.
- the planar areas preferably have a height Hp of from about 0.003 to 0.010 inch.
- the connecting ribs 16 have a height He of from about 0.003 to
- loop material 20 includes loop domes 12 and rib areas 14, as discussed above.
- the connecting rib areas 16' connect every loop dome to all six adjoining loop domes, and the areas 20 in between the rib areas 14, 16 are open, rather than planar.
- all of the material between the rib areas, both fibers and polymer, has been forced into the rib areas, leaving an open net loop material.
- This material is lightweight, breathable and may in some cases be stretchable.
- the multiple connecting rib areas 16' can also be used in embodiments in which the areas between the rib areas are planar fiber areas, rather than open areas.
- the loop material includes multiple parallel connecting rib areas 16. " When multiple connecting rib areas are used, the polymer does not need to be displaced as far as is necessary to form the single connecting rib structure shown in Fig. 1. This arrangement can be accomplished by using more resin than is used for the single connecting rib structure, and/or by making the multiple connecting ribs lower than the single connecting ribs, depending upon how much strength is required.
- the connecting ribs can also form a cross-hatch pattern with either round or square loop domes, e.g., as shown in Fig 4.
- Suitable nonwoven webs include carded webs, spunbonded webs, air-laid webs, hydroentangled webs, meltblown webs, wet-laid webs, and needled webs.
- the nonwoven web maybe formed of staple fibers or continuous fibers.
- carded webs formed of staple fibers are preferred. It is also preferred that the web have a low basis weight, preferably less than 1 ounce/yd 2 (osy), more preferably less than 0.5 osy. Low basis weight webs also have a low fiber density. This produces a very open fiber structure in the raised areas that enables hook elements to easily penetrate and engage the fibers.
- Staple fibers are preferred because the strength or tenacity of each fiber is generally higher for a given fiber diameter than in nonwoven webs made from spunbonded or melt blown fibers. Also, staple fibers are available in a wider range of types and sizes, allowing more flexibility in designing a loop material with a desired balance of properties.
- the preferred carded webs may be produced using methods well known to those familiar with carding technology.
- Preferred webs include staple fibers of 2 to 10 deniers, more preferably 3 to 6 deniers.
- the fibers are typically 1 to 6 inches in length, preferably 2 to 4 inches.
- the preferred fiber length is significantly greater than the preferred diameters of the loop domes 12.
- Suitable fiber resins include polyester, polyethylene, polypropylene, nylon and other thermoplastics.
- the fibers can be formed of a single resin or a combination of two or more resins.
- the nonwoven web may be supported by a polymeric film, as discussed above, or unsupported.
- the polymeric film may be a thin thermoplastic film such as polyethylene, polypropylene, or polyvinyl chloride (PVC).
- the film thickness is preferably from about 0.0005 to 0.005 inches, more preferably from 0.001 to 0.003 inches.
- the nonwoven web is passed through the nip of a high pressure heated set of calendar rolls.
- One of the rolls has a smooth flat surface and the other roll, the embossing roll, has a patterned surface comprising depressions, grooves, and lands which correspond, respectively, to the loop domes 12, connecting ribs 16 and planar or open areas 18 of the finished product.
- molten resin in the flat areas is forced into the grooves and forms the network of ribs 16 that interconnect the loop domes. It is generally not necessary to provide grooves around the depressions to form the ring-shaped ribs; resin will flow from the flat areas around the inner periphery of the depressions, forming the ring-shaped ribs.
- the depth of the grooves will correspond to the desired height of the ribs, assuming that there is enough material to fill the grooves and sufficient pressure is applied at the nip.
- the depth D of the grooves (Fig. 6B) is between .003 to
- Figs. 6-6B show an embossing roll 100, which is suitable for making the product shown in Fig. 3.
- Embossing roll 100 includes dome-shaped depressions 102, grooves 104, and lands 106.
- the grooves 104 can have the profile shown in Fig. 6B.
- the grooves 104 can have a semi-circular cross-sectional profile, as shown in Fig. 7, or a profile similar to that in Fig. 6B but with radiused or chamfered edges, as shown in Fig. 8.
- the transition region between the rib areas and the planar areas may in some cases be sensitive to rupture, in which case the geometries shown in Figs. 7 and 8, in which a transition zone (a softened edge such as a radius or compound radius) is provided, are preferred.
- the curved top edge 110 of groove 102 has a transition radius R-r.
- the inside surface 112 of the groove is also curved, with a radius of curvature R.
- the top edge 110 of groove 102 includes a chamfered surface 114, which provides a transition angle A.
- Suitable combinations of materials include the following: (1) a carded web of polyester fibers with a melt temperature of 485°F and a support film of polyethylene that melts at 275°F; (2) a carded web of polyester fibers with a melt of 485°F blended with 25% polyethylene fibers that melt at 275°F, with no support film; (3) a carded web of a co-extruded polyester fiber with an outer shell of polyester with a melt of 285°F and a core of a polyester with a melt of 485°F.
- the web can be made entirely of a single type fiber, and the web itself can be used as the resin that forms the rib regions. This alternative will require more precise control over temperature and pressure. In this case, the transition between the ribs and planar areas tends to be particularly sensitive to rupture, and thus it is preferred that the groove geometry shown in Fig. 7 be used.
- resins having different hardness characteristics can achieve similar anchoring effects. Relatively softer materials can flow to form rib areas and encapsulate harder fibers under high pressures, without requiring elevated temperatures during the embossing process. Eliminating heating will reduce the potential thermal damage to the hook engaging fibers.
- the geometry of the patterned roll can be selected to produce a desired end result.
- the domes and grooves can have any desired shape.
- the depressions must merely be deep enough to prevent excessive compression of the fibers or other damage to the functional fiber domes they produce.
- the spacing or lands between these depressions are designed such that, under the appropriate temperature and pressure for the chosen resins, they displace molten plastic into the grooves, as discussed above.
- the properties of the loop material can be relatively easily adjusted, by adjusting the amount of reinforcing resin used and/or changing the depth, number and/or arrangement of the rib members. If more resin is used, the loop material will generally be stronger, but also will be more expensive and heavier. If more rib members and/or thicker rib members are used, this will also generally increase the strength of the loop material. Thus, in applications where high strength is not needed, the loop material can be engineered to be low cost and lightweight, while if high strength is required the loop material can be engineered to provide this property. Other embodiments are within the scope of the following claims. For example, the closed rib areas surrounding the raised areas have been shown as ring-shaped.
- these rib areas can have any desired shape, e.g., octagonal, square, triangular or diamond-shaped.
- the connecting rib areas have been shown as linear, if desired they could be curved or have any desired shape.
- one or more additional layers can be applied to the loop material, e.g., in a post-process, for reinforcement or to provide other desired properties. Suitable additional layers include reinforcing scrims, glass filaments, pressure sensitive adhesives, and foams. These layers can be applied by any suitable method, e.g., by coating, laminating, or adhering.
