摘要:
A composite fiber having elastomer and method for making the same, and a substrate having the composite fiber and method for making the same are provided. The composite fiber includes a first composition and a second composition. The first composition is thermoplastic non-elastomer, and the second composition is thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). The second composition is in an amount of 5 to 70 weight % of the composite fiber. The first composition and the second composition are alternately distributed in a circumference of a cross-section of the composite fiber, and the length of the second composition is less than 50% of the total length of the circumference. The TPE can be dispersed uniformly and increase the adhesion between fibers, and the segmented fiber cross-section thereof further prevents the TPE from becoming too adhesive and affecting the processing during the fabrication of fibers and non-woven fabric substrates. Therefore, the non-woven fabric substrate or artificial leather made from the composite fiber has excellent textile feeling and physical properties.
摘要:
A core-sheath fiber has a core and a sheath. The core comprises 0.1 to 10 wt % of carbon black pigment particles. The sheath surrounds the core preventing the core from being exposed. Because the carbon black pigment particles are mainly distributed in the core and the core is surrounded by the sheath with little or no carbon black pigment particles, a surface of the core-sheath fiber has low friction and electrical conductivity. Therefore, a lifetime of a punch needle used in machinery to produce a nonwoven is maintained and the nonwoven can undergo high frequency treatment to form artificial leather. Additionally, the sheath has little or no carbon black pigment particles, so the sheath is improved compatibility with polyurethane (PU) used for high frequency treatment.
