  • Patent number: 8021995
    Abstract: A fiber mixture according to the invention comprises fibers A comprising a polymer A containing a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and fibers B comprising a thermoplastic polymer B other than the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, said thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer having a starting temperature for solidifying of 65° C. or above as measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and containing 3.00×106 or less polar-solvent-insoluble particles per g counted on a particle size distribution analyzer, which is based on an electrical sensing zone method, equipped with an aperture tube having an orifice of 100 ?m in diameter. An elastic nonwoven fabric comprises the fiber mixture.

  • Patent number: 7659218
    Abstract: A spunbonded elastic nonwoven fabric according to the invention comprises fibers formed from a polymer comprising a thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, wherein the thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer has a starting temperature for solidifying of 65° C. or above as measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and contains 3.00×106 or less polar-solvent-insoluble particles per g as counted on a particle size distribution analyzer, which is based on an electrical sensing zone method, equipped with an aperture tube having an orifice of 100 ?m in diameter, and wherein the fibers have diameters such that the standard deviation of fiber diameters (Sn) divided by the average fiber diameter (Xave) (Sn/Xave) gives a value of 0.15 or less.

  • Patent number: 6649726
    Abstract: The two-component type polyurethane composition according to the present invention is obtained from a principal component containing a compound having an isocyanate group and a curing agent containing a compound having active hydrogen, and is characterized in that both the principal component and the curing agent contain substantially no thixotropic agent, the mixture of the principal component and the curing agent has a specific thixotropy-developing time and a specific slump, the active hydrogen compound has a specific flash point, and that the mass change of the two-component type polyurethane composition before/after boiling in boiling water under specific conditions is in a specific range.
