Omnova溶液公司公布了一项使苯乙烯-丁二烯聚合物乳液能用于多种无纺布的化学胶粘产品的专利(US 6034005)。该产品是“完全无甲醛”的乳胶粘胶剂,它使非纤维素纤维(如聚丙烯和聚乙烯等)在它们的熔融粘接温度以下就能获得最大的拉伸性能。苯乙烯-丁二烯乳胶的应用通常只限于易处理的无纺布,因为它易于褪色,并且长期暴露于光、热和空气后就会变得易碎。 Omnova Solutions Inc. has published a patent (US 6034005) that makes styrene-butadiene polymer emulsions useful for a variety of nonwovens. The product is a “completely formaldehyde-free” latex adhesive that maximizes the tensile properties of non-cellulosic fibers such as polypropylene and polyethylene below their melt-bonding temperatures. The use of styrene-butadiene latex is generally limited to disposable nonwovens because it tends to fade and becomes brittle after prolonged exposure to light, heat, and air.
