摘要:
The invention provides novel polyesters, fibers and films, nonwovens from the fibers and disposable products of the polyesters such as diapers. The products are degradable under the conditions typically existing in waste composting processes, have low ingredient costs and yet provide strength and toughness properties adequate for end uses such as in disposable diapers. The polyesters are based upon polyethylene terephthalate copolymerized with a non-aromatic diacid, such as adipic and glutaric acids, and containing alkali metal or alkaline earth metal sulfo groups, such as a metal 5-sulfoisophthalic acid derivative.

The products are degradable under the conditions typically existing in waste composting processes, have low ingredient costs and yet provide strength and toughness properties adequate for end uses such as in disposable diapers. The polyesters are based upon polyethylene terphthalate copolymerized with a cycloaliphatic diacid, preferably hexahydroterephthalic acid, and containing alkali metal or alkaline earth metal sulfo groups, such as a metal 5-sulfoisophthalic acid derivative.

The products are degradable under the conditions typically existing in waste composting processes, have low ingredient costs and yet provide strength and toughness properties adequate for end uses such as in disposable diapers. The polyesters are based upon polyethylene terephthalate copolymerized with a polyethylene glycol and a 5-sulfoisophthalic acid and, if desired, a polyethylene ether such as diethylene glycol.

An improved process is provided for weaving an elastic stretch fabric. The fabric is woven with weft and/or warp yarns that are combination yarns which comprise a partially oriented synthetic crystalline polymer yarn combined with an elastomeric core. The fabric is then stretched, heat set and finished under particular conditions to provide the resultant fabric with an elastic stretch of 18 to 45% and dimensions about equal to the as-woven dimensions.
