Degradable polymer fibres comprising polylactide and material made from the fibres
A fibrous polylactide material comprises a plurality of polylactide containing fibres prepared from a polylactide composition containing polylactide having less than 5wt% R-lactic acid, a lactide concentration of less than 0.5wt% and a number average molecular weight of 25,000 and 150,000. The plura...

Zusammenfassung: | A fibrous polylactide material comprises a plurality of polylactide containing fibres prepared from a polylactide composition containing polylactide having less than 5wt% R-lactic acid, a lactide concentration of less than 0.5wt% and a number average molecular weight of 25,000 and 150,000. The plurality of polylactide containing fibres exhibits a crystallinity of greater than 20 J/g, a tenacity of greater than 1.5 grams/denier and an average fibre boiling water shrinkage propensity of less than 15%. The plurality of polylactide containing fibres is prepared by spunbonding the polylactide composition at a fibre velocity of 1,000 to 3,000m/min, a throughput of 0.5 and 1.2g/min/capillary and a temperature of 220-245oC and is deposited as a web. |
